Abstract
The impact sound of the golf club is one of the major factors to purchase it. Sound quality metrics has been mostly developed for harmonic sounds. Sound quality evaluation techniques for the impact sound have been contrived in this study. Jury test, one of the typical subjective evaluation scheme, is carried out for evaluating the sound quality of 13 different golf drivers, which classification results are assumed to be correct answers. Conventional objective evaluation methods such as Zwicker loudness sensory pleasantness are calculated. Wavelet analysis and instantaneous loudness are applied in order to evaluate the sound quality of transient sounds, which scheme shows better correlation with the results from jury test.
