A three-dimensional motion analyzer was used to measure the X-factor(angle between shoulder and pelvis at top of backswing). Primus RS was used to measure the swing powerand swing speed. The golf simulator was used to measure the clubhead speed. In the study, we comparedthe dependent variables before and after the exercise between the novice and expert.
