DEAR FELLOW SUBSCRIBERs,
I posted a request for literatures on weight transfer for
striking activities on the 28th July. I have received some very
helpful responses as well as indications of interest in this
area.
I like to thank the kind biomechanists that responded.
I must apologise for the delay. But for some reasons unknown to
us we were drop from the list.( In fact, I think our whole
dept.in NTU,Singapore was cut off.)
The following are the responses:
I have just completed a rather large study of 20 golfers using
high speed 3D motion analysis and force plate measures. I'll be
presenting some of the data at the ASB conference in Columbus in
October. If your friend would like more info, get him to contact
me and
I'll do the best that I can.
Cheers,
Rob

Dear John Tan
Two useful sources of reference are:-
1. Proceedings of 1st World Scientific Congress of Golf, Univ of
St Andrews, Scotland 9-13 july 1990 ISBN 0 419 15 130 3
2. Proceedings of 2nd world congress of Golf, Univ of St Andrews
Scotland 4-8 July 1994. (Sorry ISBN number at home)
Both are published by E & F N SPON (imprint of Chapman Hall),
London

I saw a posting on the biomechanics mailing list concerning
weight transfer
during activities such as golf. I am not working in this field
but, as an avid golfer,
I subscribe to Golf Digest magazine. I recall sometime in the
past year (I think)
that they had an interesting article about exactly this
subject. They placed a
dynamic pressure sensor under each foot and asked people to make
a normal
swing. They compared the weight transfer of professionals, low
handicappers,
and high handicappers. I found it quite interesting. If you
would like to know
exactly which issue it was in, I save my back issues and could
probably dig it out
for you.

Bruce mason published a paper on weight transfer during the
baseball swing.
It was in Biomech X, the proceedings of the ISB conference held
June, 1985
in Umea, Sweden.

They contain some 150 papers 25% of which are devoted to weight
transfer.
