The y-axis represents vertical displacement, while the x-axis represents horizontal displacement. The red line represents a pitching wedge, the black line a 9-iron and the blue line a driver. This graph represents how the horizontal and vertical displacement differs from each type of golf club. The pitching wedge is a club that goes for an accuracy approach, while a driver is aimed at achieving horizontal displacement.
From the table of results and the accompanying graph, a summary of the results can be identified. The results show that generally each change of the golf ball results in a consistent increase in distance hit produced by each individual. Bar from James, the results are almost identical when averages are calculated. James was
