why the kinematic difference between a bullwhip and a (track & field) shot-putter?
you're trying to get the distal end to speed in both instances, correct? so does it depend chiefly on the weight and length (and maybe flexibility) of those segments? if that's true, it seems like a golf swing would fall somewhere in the middle.
to my eye, the shot put looks like almost all body and the bullwhip very little.
