Quintic Ball Roll utilises a high-speed camera (1080 frames per second) to track the putter and golf ball throughout the impact zone of either a right handed or left handed player. The system automatically measures over 60 parameters regarding the putter and ball, both graphically and numerically. The data is instantly displayed within the software for immediate analysis, review and intervention.
Quintic Ball Roll has been designed for the various needs of our worldwide clients - including putter fitting specialists, teaching professionals, putter manufacturers, research and development and, of course, the golfer themselves!
