Understanding the spinning mechanism of an impacted golfball is an important factor in golf science and engineering. The rigid sphere model which considers the Coulomb-type slip friction presented independently by Daish and Kawamura (referred to here as the Daish-Kawamura model) seems to well explain the experimental results of golfball spinning. For a more general interpretation of the spin phenomenon, we attempted to modify this model by introducing a physical quantity called the "s parameter", which is defined as the ratio of the circumferential velocity of the ball to its centroid velocity. An experiment performed to verify the appropriateness of the new parameter introduction led to the following conclusions: The spin phenomenon in golf impact can be divided into two phases, in both of which the Daish-Kawamura model is effective. A method is described to evaluate the coefficient of slip friction under high sliding velocities, and the value is estimated as 0.07 for a slippery surface condition.
