Do you film your swing?

[3565]

I prefer to let the pro film me and discuss the problems in a lesson than for me to look at it and look for things that may not be there or try changing something that isn't the root cause of the problem

So do you not video yourself at all and check that what you've been taught by your pro is what your doing? My pro tells me what my bad habits are so I can see if them habits are creeping back in (as they almost do) until the changes become more ingrained.

No. He tends to see me at the range when I'm working (sometimes watching me when I don't even know he's there) and he'll just nudge me if he sees something bad creeping back in. He'll always give me a couple of minutes between lessons and stick a swing on my phone to compare back to the pictures of my perfect set up I've stored

Oh right well there's no point. My coach works at another club so I've not got that luxury, that's why I use hudl so I can send to him.

Apologies for the ancient thread bump. I'm looking for a current android app to film my swing, slowmo, add lines etc

The videoing is one thing. The playback features are another.
I like Onform. Good slow mo. Good lines and boxes drawing in different colours. Nice frame by frame indexing. Our pro uses it.

I'm not sure I need to draw any lines and boxes. I can slow it down in my phone's video player and that's probably all I need.

Never…ever…ever. The last thinkg I need is a video of my swing in my head as I swing the club as I would try and manipulate my swing to match what I see me doing - or not doing. And what I think I need to do to swing it like Adam Scott is 100miles away from what I would actually need to do. An occasional still by my pro is one thing , a video would freak me out. Maybe once I have a solid decent and successful swing but things going awry and pro thought vid worthwhile. Otherwise No No No Not for me.

Videoing my swing at the start of this year was the best thing I ever did - genuinely. I was not doing anything like what I thought I was doing. I thought I was making my swing shorter, and it was the longest backswing I've ever seen in my life when I watched it back. I was absolutely stunned.

I guess if you're having regular lessons then you have someone to tell you what you're doing instead of seeing it for yourself, but for me personally, if I hadn't have done the videos I'd have been preparing for another year of terrible driving no doubt. Whereas now I'm swinging better and feeling ominously confident.

Try Skillest - it's an app for online coaching but there's a free Video Analysis Tool which is great. Just film in slow mo on your phone, and upload it and it'll allow you to add lines, and move back/forward frame by frame.

I used to use V1 but they moved to a subscription model, so no good.

I’d suggest you needed just one lesson … not only would any issues with your swing be spotted…but he’d give you what you needed to do to start on the road to remediating things - without wholesale changes,

Did you miss what happened when Ori had a lesson last year?
