1. An instant automatic video replay system for recording and instantly replaying motion images, comprising:

  • (a) a time and motion trigger point, capable of placing a golf ball on it and to be used as a point for receiving an impact force onto the golf ball;

    (b) a camera, installed near said time and motion trigger point, and adjusted to said point so as to acquire motion images of balls such as golf ball and players;

    (c) a computerized image analysis and storing system, connected to said camera and then process, analyze and store the images caught by said camera;

    (d) a display, connected to said computer system to display the images of said camera or the images analyzed by or stored in said computer;

    (e) a control panel, connected to said computer system so as to monitor said computer system and said camera;

    wherein said computerized image analysis and storing apparatus periodically analyzes the image frames of said computerized image analysis and storing apparatus and then determines whether said time and motion trigger point has already been activated;

    if the time and motion trigger point has not yet been activated, then said display displays current images of said time and motion trigger point and the player;

    if the time and motion trigger point has already been activated, then said computer system retrieves the complete motions of the players (consisting of the pre-hit, hit, and post-hit motion in the golfing) from the memory of said computer and then displays them on the display;

    if said images have been completely displayed, then the display returns to said time and motion trigger point and the current images of the player.
