 Method of matching golfer with golf ball, golf club, or style of play - Patent 4063259
The "launch conditions" with which the golfer "launches" a golf ball are measured to determine the golf ball dimple pattern most suitable for a particular golfer or to determine modifications which should be made in his style of play or club design.
The launch angle of a particular golfer is preferably measured by taking a series of pictures, preferably on a single photographic frame, of the ball flight during approximately the first one-tenth second after the ball leaves the club face and measuring the angle the flight path makes with the horizontal.
As an example of determining the golf ball for a golfer to use, the situation will be considered where a golfer's launch conditions have been measured and it has been found that he or she has an initial velocity of 200 ft/sec, an initial spin velocity of 3,000 rpm, and a launch angle of 8.degree..

 5.01.09.05 - Putter-Ball Impact
75: With a billiard ball, such topspin is imparted by striking the ball with the cue at a point 7/10th of the diameter of the ball above the surface, with a horizontal blow parallel to the plane of the ball's horizontal equator.
Third, the ball should be struck solidly; contact should be made between the center of gravity of the clubface and the back of the ball.
Golfers often have more than 10 percent uncertainty in the distance putts roll, as a result of missing the sweet spot (1 in a 10' putt; 3' in a 30' putt, etc.); short putts don't go in; The face angle of your putter at impact also affects direction.

 Method of matching golfer with golf ball, golf club, or style of play - Patent 4375887
The "launch conditions" with which the golfer "launches" a golf ball are measured to determine the golf ball dimple pattern most suitble for a particular golfer or to determine modifications which should be made in his style of play or club design.
When each of these values is measured for a particular golfer, then the golfer can be matched to a golf ball having the correct construction and aerodynamic properties for his particular set of launch conditions or the golfer's club design or style of play can be adjusted to suit his launch conditions.
As an example of determining the golf ball for a golfer to use, the situation will be considered where a golfer's launch conditions have been measured and it has been found that he has an initial velocity of 200 ft/sec, an initial spin velocity of 3,000 rpm, and a launch angle of 8.degree..
