Putting Analysis Software:

Quintic Ball Roll putting analysis software is the brainchild of Dr Paul Hurrion who is an internationally recognised Sports Biomechanist. Dr Hurrion is perhaps best known as Padraig Harrington's trusted putting advisor and putting biomechanics over the past eight years. He works with many other PGA Tour golfers including Rory McIlroy, Oliver Wilson, Paul McGinley, Robert-Jan Derksen, Lee Westwood
... and also carries his top level skills, knowledge and experience into the research and development of putter and shaft design.

Dr. Hurrion created the system because he realised the importance of knowing how the ball is rolling out. He saw many products that give information on the putter, but no one had any information on the ball itself. Whilst many putter manufactures have similar looking putters, each putter has different characteristics, such as the type of face insert, weight placement, etc… these are designed to have an effect on how the ball rolls after impact. By only looking at the putter assumes every putter is the same; which is incorrect... Dr. Hurrion realised the importance of measuring the launch charerticstics of the golf ball, including such parameters as speed, launch angle, backspin, over spin, hook or cut spin, smoothness of roll out, whether the ball was pushed or pulled and even how the ball slows down... these parameters are very important when coaching and/or fitting a putter.

Dr Hurrion uses the Quintic Ball Roll putting analysis Software regularly in all his analysis work. Quintic Ball Roll v2.4 software is capable of analysing up to 260 frames per second, automatically recognising markers on the golf ball, and instantly producing fully digitised analysis of each putt. The software tracks the ball for the first 12 inches of the putt. It then instantly and clearly shows the ball speed, sidespin (cut or hook), angular rotation (degrees & RPM), vertical bounce, launch angle and point at which true roll occurs.

Crucially – and this is the most significant advance on Quintic’s already pioneering analysis tools – all of the above are reflected graphically and numerically in a summary sheet in a way that was formerly only available for full swing analysis software for irons and woods. The average, range, standard deviation and consistency of the putts are automatically updated after each putt and saved into a session folder. It is then possible to compare session results, for example, with different types of putter, before and after changes to the loft / lie / length of a putter and before or after a putting lesson. Quintic Ball Roll has been developed on the advice and feedback from club manufacturers and touring professionals alike.

Download Demo Version

Click on the link below to download a free 21 day trial of the program.  The Demo has preloaded putts that highlight different key elements to look for. It allows you to view these putts so that you can see the fantastic range of information it provides.

Importantly you will begin to realise the unique benefits that a full understanding of the effect of a putting action on the ball brings to your own putting style, to accurate putter fitting, to the definitive choice of the correct putter to suit the golfer’s style.

Virtually every golfer whose putting is analysed with Quintic Ball Roll putting software will find it fascinating and will not be able to ignore the visual evidence that assistance with putting lessons is necessary.  Quintic Ball Roll will then also demonstrate the effect of those putting lessons and in the following months and years the sensible golfer will have regular putting check-ups to stay on line.
