Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference of kinematic factors acting in the body during a normal swing and a swing taken with an intention to increase driving distance by female pro golfers. Female pro golfers may increase driver clubhead speed and improve driving distance through maintaining a large X-factor angle during backswing and delaying the uncocking period by rapidly shifting the weight to the left foot during downswing.
