Golf course roundup
Wow, time flies and so have the golf balls – so let’s hop in the time machine and go back to May 22 and 23, “oooh, time machine.” The Ely Amateur was contested over two cold and windy days. When it was all over Gary Ford from St. George, Utah, bettered his second-place showing in 2009 to take the title.

@Jammieg001 Mercedes has been dimpling the underside of their performance cars for awhile now.
@grantcowan2019 Well, about 30% of the other words were simple words that connect other words together. So, the only logical conclusion is: you’re an idiot.
Still doesn’t explain why imo but rather in more detail what is happening, doesn’t explain why this principle isn’t put into car body designs or bullets either. There’s something missing here that a computer simulation isn’t accounting for which is only as smart as it’s programming, kinda like mathematics can only be accurate if it accounts for all variables otherwise it just looks impressive and hard to understand.
pqp?
quite interesting that it takes a couple of bumbling researchers such as mythbusters to shed light on the importance of this.. hmm wonder who first figured out the golf ball thing and how
Captain Kirk, anyone?
@grantcowan2019
I understand all of the words because I have a PhD in Dimple Dynamics.
His voice sounds like a more natural computerized voice. “but how many dimples shouldtherebe?”
This video explained the aerodynamics of a golf ball so well that I don’t care to watch any more videos on the subject.
@mjndblain
Of couse it’s fake, it’s a simulation.
lol more like seconds those computers are amazing if you have ever been on one
Computer time. It reduces the number of iterations you have to make. Studies have show companies that invest in simulation software spend less on research and have shorter times to market, whether it be jumbo jets, cars, or golf balls.
magnus effect ?
THIS IS FAKE AND GAY
he didn’t mention backspin.
does this theory work with all fluid dynamics because if it works for newtonian fluids like water. if it does then they should use this design on ships and subs.
Could you do a model to tests the golf ball effect on a car as seen in Mythbusters? I think that the golf ball dimples only need to be placed in strategic areas. Refer to fighter plane vortex generators for insights. The idea is to improve fuel efficiency.
I’m not sure what’s currently cheaper, hours of super computer time or to drill some holes in a ball and go hit it.
coool
wonder if thats daves real voice??? ha ha ha
w’H'at shape. his voice is annoying.
Has there ever been a bullet or rocket made with this idea?
I know that swimming and running suits have been formulated.
it helps golf ball manufacturers learn about the air drag on golf balls, allowing them to create better balls, allowing you to hit longer….. that’s how
You’re right.
Funny, I can’t even remember posting on that vid, or watching it for that matter. Must have been a crappy night hehe
if you listen to the beginning of the video he states that they knew this already but the computer helps visualize and quantify what effect the dimples have. If they can quantify it they can improve how deep, how big , and how many dimples are best on a golf ball to make it go the farthest. When Daimler engineered the first gasoline engine in the late 1800’s he did that without a computer but look what computers have done for combustible engines today…
