ABSTRACT

Over the years, the golf industry has flooded the market with a plethora of weird and wonderful practice tools and coaching aids. However, the vast majority of this equipment comes with nothing more than marketing hype promising a drastically improved game and few have been subjected to rigorous scientific analysis. Ubiquitous to many driving ranges and practice grounds around the world are the Explanar® Golf Training System and video feedback systems. In this chapter, I will evaluate the effectiveness of this teaching and training apparatus from a constraints-led, dynamical systems theoretical perspective.
