Probably not. But you use science anyway." In sports, Making the Play involves more than athletic skill—it's all possible because of physics!

High-contrast design and relatable images of people at play provide a colorful backdrop to each high-interest title. An elementary introduction to the physics involved in the sport of golf, including scientific concepts such as torque and lift, and actions such as swinging and twisting. Includes TOC, diagrams, glossary, book references, websites, and index. Full-color photographs throughout. |
