Backspin
When we talk about backspin, we’re referring to the backward rotation of a golf ball as it flies through the air. All golf balls rotate in some direction, but not all do backwards (towards the player) or fast enough to be noticed one the ball hits the ground. There are two main reasons why backspin is important for a golf shot. It would be simple to say that Pete Strobl’s book, Backspin, describes his experiences as a college basketball player at Niagara University and nine years playing professional basketball in Europe. But that would be a very limited description of a book that is part autobiography, part motivational text, and entirely entertaining and enjoyable.

In racquet sports and golf, backspin (also known in racket sports as slice or underspin), is a shot such that the ball rotates backwards (as though rolling back towards the player) after it is hit. This direction of spin imparts an upward force that lifts the ball (see Magnus effect). While a normal hit bounces well forward as well as up, backspin shots bounce higher and less forward. Backspin is the opposite of topspin.

In racket sports, the higher bounce imparted by backspin may make a receiver who has prepared for a different shot miss or mis-hit the ball when swinging. A backspin shot is also useful for defensive shots because a backspin shot takes longer to travel to the opponent, giving the defender more time to get back into position. Also, because backspin shots tend to bounce less far forward once they reach the opposite court, they may be more difficult to attack. This is especially important in table tennis because one must wait for the ball to bounce before hitting it, whereas in tennis the opponent may volley the ball.
In golf, a well-struck shot will result in a large amount of backspin that will carry the ball higher into the air and farther. Backspin also helps with distance control, as if there is enough backspin, the ball will 'check' if it lands on the putting surface, and sometimes even creep backwards (in the opposite direction that the ball was flying) upon landing.
