Overcomplicating GOLF by simulating every possible shot
Extra note: I'm starting a Facebook page for AlphaPhoenix with video updates and info about projects I'm working on! https://www.facebook.com/AlphaPhoenixChannel
In this video I take a trip to Thistle Dhu, the famous putting course at Pinehurst and write a matlab program to simulate a million putts at once, all in an effort to map "Phase Spaces" of golf. There's a common scientific mindset normally referred to as a phase space or parameter space, where you express everything that could happen in an experiment in terms of the variables you can control. In the case of putting a golf ball, the ball can go in the hole, or it can miss completely - if it misses, we also care how far from the hole it stopped. You only actually have control of two variables while putting a golf ball, the initial speed and initial direction. After you hit the ball, physics takes over!
By popular request, here's some code!
