Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine kinematic variables in golf swing depending on auditory information and expertise. The subjects were semi-professional 5 golfers and amateur 5 golfers. Data were analyzed with analysis of variance for repeated measures using SPSS program. The results were followed. The angular displacement of the shoulder joint's right was significant that skilled and unskilled group were according to the swing the most phase in the metronome. Unskilled group was significant difference to swing with the music performed in 4 phases. Angular displacement of the hip joint's right was significant difference that skilled group was to swing in all phases and unskilled group was showed significant differences in the 3 phase. Angular displacement of the hip joint's left was significant difference that skilled group in all phases except for two phase. Unskilled group was significant differences in all phases. The angular displacement of knee joint's right were significant difference that skilled group was to swing in all phases. Unskilled group was showed except for 1 phase a significant difference was found in all phases. The angular displacement of knee joint's left were significant difference that skilled group and unskilled group showed significant differences in all phases. The angular displacement of ankle joint's right and left ankle joint were significant differences, both skilled and unskilled group in all aspects. Consequently, efficient golf swing may affect that the accuracy considered over the regular rhythmic auditory training methods that provide auditory information.
