Tracking a golf ball to visualize its trajectory had previously been done with complex and expensive systems. Those systems are not in the reach of every people. Here we suggest a more straightforward approach for the same purpose but utilizing only golf shots videos. The proposed system uses image processing and a deep neural network model, YOLO (You Only Live Once) V3. To achieve the goal of tracking the golf ball, the YOLO V3 network and Hough transform localize the ball’s initial position and the frame differencing technique tracks the golf ball. Upon implementation of the method to multiple videos, an acceptable result was obtained.
