Right you golf lovers you will like this one. You know Rory Mcilroy? Golf extraordinaire! But he can't keep up...with Jeff, a machine.

Here is a clip of Rory and Jeff dishing it out. And by the way Jeff has a sense of humour to top it all of.

Jeff is no normal piece of steel with a few motors that whacks a ball. Golf Laboratories don't give out a lot of information, but they state that Jeff can swing from 0.1mph ( 0.16 kmh ) for putters, and up to 120mph ( 193kmh ) for drivers, with extreme precision. You can fiddle around with the friendly user interface and adjust literally everything. With a repeatability of 0.00002", to put that is perspective human hair is about 0.003" thick. So if you stack pennies as high as 4 empire state buildings on top of another, and you put twenty pennies next to that, that is the same as 0.00002" accurate.

Here is a pic of the grip mechanism:

This helps Jeff to incorporate the double pendulum effect, to mimic the upper and lower arms during the swing.

Preparing to swing:

Jeff mentions he uses GPS, but I personally thinks he uses GPS only for a rough estimation. Looks like the operator adjust the swing to hit the targets, imagine if you added a LiDAR system, and put it on a golf course next to the big boys in golf. Watch out Tiger Woods! Jeff is aiming for your lunch money!
