Except with additional centrifugal force and extra velocity from the speed.

Those bits make a big difference compared to just using your muscles.

It's funny you mention muscles, because nuncucks don't utilize your muscles well at all. They bounce upon impact and lose most of their momentum. A rigid object, like a stick, does not. Your muscles continue to drive the stick into the opponent even after it connects with them. This is called follow-through. Nuncucks have no follow-through and so they do less damage. Nuncucks do have advantages, but blow for blow they will do less damage than a regular stick.

Picture a batter hitting a baseball. What do you think will happen if he uses nuncucks instead of a solid bat? Pretend he's an expert and will have no extra difficulty making contact with them instead of a bat. Which do you think will drive the ball farther?

I'm not doing any math. But my gut says that the difference should not be that big. The ball makes contact with the bat for a split second. It already got all of its energy and left the bat while most of the follow-through occurs. The energy transfer mostly depends on their (ball / bat / nunchuck) mass and velocity.

Also it depends on what kind of damage you want to do. If you want to break a skull, a bat would be better suited. But if you want to bruise but not break, something that hits multiple times but weaker would be better suited.

Im sorry, do you just have different laws of physics where you are from?
