Abstract

Provided is a GUI display device that is able to explain the movement for holding the wrist cock and the movement for releasing the wrist cock during a golf swing visually in easily understandable manner. The GUI display device includes a display control part. The display control part simultaneously displays, on the GUI screen, a first graphic G 1 (i) representing a strength with which a wrist cock is held at an i-th timing during a swing motion of a golf club, and a second graphic G 2 (i) representing the strength with which the wrist cock is released at the i-th timing, where i=1, 2, . . . , N (N being an integer of 2 or more).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A non-transitory recording medium storing a GUI display program configured to display a GUI screen, the program causing a computer to execute the step of:
acquiring measurement data obtained by measuring a swing motion of a golf club by a golfer;
calculating, based on the measurement data, a first indicator representing a strength with which a wrist cock is held at an i-th timing during the swing motion of the golf club, and a second indicator representing a strength with which the wrist cock is released at the i-th timing, where i=1, 2, . . . , N (N being an integer of 2 or more); and
creating an image I(i) simultaneously displaying, on the GUI screen, a first graphic G 1 (i) having a form depending on a size of the first indicator at an i-th timing during the swing motion of the golf club, and a second graphic G 2 (i) having a form depending on a size of the second indicator at the i-th timing, an arm graphic G 3 (i) representing an arm of the golfer at the i-th timing, and a club graphic G 4 (i) representing the golf club at the i-th timing, where i=1, 2, . . . , N (N being an integer of 2 or more); and
displaying the image I(i) in a mode of a moving image in time sequence where i=1, 2, . . . , N.

2. The non-transitory recording medium according to claim 1 , the program causing the computer to further execute the step of:
determining an optimal shaft weight, which is a shaft weight suitable for the golfer, according to the first indicator and the second indicator,
displaying the optimal shaft weight on the GUI screen.
