The Minnesota High School State Championship between Moorhead & Minnetonka had a larger attendance (19,648) than ANY NHL game on Saturday (19,070).
This truly is my favorite stat of every hockey season. Such a testament to the fandom and support of the MN hockey community
Optimizing ground reaction forces in the golf swing isn’t just about HOW HARD a golfer pushes against the ground, but HOW they push (timing and direction).
One of the key kinetic variables we consider in a force analysis is called anterior-posterior force (or heel-toe force). Think of a golfer pushing frictionally against the ground, towards the target line with their lead leg and away from the target line with their trail leg.
AP force is not only a meaningful contributor to clubhead speed, it also has a strong relationship to early extension.
In order to prevent the pelvis from moving closer to the target line on the downswing, the lead leg needs to push considerably harder than the trail leg to drive the hip back (we often see over 2X AP force on the lead side vs the trail side in elite ball-strikers).
As Newton outlines in his 3rd law, “for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.”
In the case of this PGA TOUR player, the trail leg was pushing equal to the lead leg, resulting in him early extending.
The Eagles are teeing it up again for the two day @FargoNorthGolf Invite at Edgewood! And in honor of the north Invite this weekend, a little throwback to the 2008 Invite and some typical ND Spring golf weather.
April 10, 2014: Minnesota’s Justin Holl scores an improbable shorthanded buzzer-beating goal to beat North Dakota at the NCAA Frozen Four and put @GopherHockey in the National Championship game.
