You're on record as hating golf. Therefore, layoff the golfing terms!


I've been waiting for the results of the golf club versus baseball bat
distance challenge.
I am not a golfer (much) but I *did* learn something about energy equaling
mass times velocity squared.
My money is not on Tom on this one, mathematician, grunt and athlete
aside.

Thank you for your support. :)

I'll still willing to take the challenge, mass and velocity facts
beside the point.

The question is, how do we test it.

Go hit a golf ball with your bat. Let us know how far it went. Mike Dobbyn
hit a 551 yard drive last year. http://tinyurl.com/2yskb9

If you can get over 300 yards, I'd say you did pretty good, given the lack
of practice.

Trying to save you some embarrassment. It's also the reason that young,
flexible flyer golfers using light, titanium clubs can easily out-drive a
muscle bound jock using his "Big Bertha" driver.

Wait a minute. To be fair the golf ball needs to be pitched to Tom at
100mph.

Well, that's true.

However that assumes that I'm going to be looking for the fences with
right handed power. NO NO NO - I'm strictly a finesse hitter.

There is more to hitting a round ball with a bat than power - there is
wrist speed (the ability to turn over the bat qiuckly) and hitting the
ball square in the middle of the barrel. I wouldn't use an aluminum
bat either - wood baby.

However, in the interest of fairness, there is a great driving range
here in Woodstock that is wide open, flat and the use of a baseball
bat isn't strictly forbidden (perhaps you can tell I've done this
before when one of my kids played high school golf).

I also have a video camera. I think we can pull this test off.

So, honor system.

PS: I'm also counting on the blind hope that perhaps Mr. Duck isn't
that great a golfer. :)
