Work
Athletes like golfers train all year round to improve their physical fitness in order to reach their greatest potential. Not only does this training increase the size of their biceps, but also increases the energy's that are occurring during their golf swing. This calculation here will show you the amount of work the golf club does to the golf ball during this 200 yard drive.

Power
Another concept to consider is the amount of power that is being exerted during the golf shot. This calculation will show you the amount of power being exerted from the golf club to the golf ball during this 200 yard drive, by dividing the amount of work by the time the golf club and golf ball are in contact. (P=W/Δt)
Efficiency
Golfers work hours on end to perfect all areas of their game. In order to hit the ball as far as they can they need to be persistent and efficient. The calculation shown here displays the total efficiency of the golf club, and where the energy being lost is lost too.
