Seeing your own swing.

[MadAdey]

I always find it strange seeing your own swing on camera. Do you love it or hate it? At Kenilworth on Wednesday Steve (Fundy) recorded my swing and posted it on the site.

Seeing your swing for the first time is guaranteed to destroy any delusions of adequacy you may have
My long freeflowing, full shoulder turn swing changes to a half to 3/4 swing with the worlds worst delayed hit whenever a video camera is pointed at it. It does work reasonably well though

Oh I dunno, my swing is fantastic, its the horrible lump of useless human its attached to is the problem.

I don't mind seeing my swing but my fat gut is horrid to see on video!

 

[Alex1975]

I hate seeing my swing and it usually disappoints me, it is essential from time to time though.

That 2 iron looks so long.

I filmed myself for the first time last year and it was shocking! Left leg collapsed on back swing and straightened in on the down swing! No wondering I was topping so many! And a massive over swing! Shudder just thinking about it!

you need to speed up

Mine was looking good yesterday on film for my lesson (pros words - perfect set up, big shoulder turn with resistance on right leg, ds started with hips, left leg posted, inverted k position at impact with hands ahead of ball to a full balanced finish).

Unfortunately something happens when I leave that room as I must have hit about 80 balls straight after with only about 5 decent strikes and every bad shot in the book other than the shanks!

 

[Whee]

Mine never fails to crack me up.

Ball on a tee peg confidently, couple of waggles, a smooth practise half-swing, then address the ball. "this one's going miles" as you're lured into a false sense of security. Back swing starts....jesus wept what's the club head doing there..... left arm straight, like it.... is that a toungue coming out? Ooh, bit of overswing there....and through the ball, all the way...poor balance, nearly fallen over. What a mess. Anybody see where the ball went?!

One watch is enough, that's all i'll say.

I love it, I use my swingprofile app every time I am at the range, it's the only was I can truly see what I am doing wrong. Show it to my pro at lessons so he can see what I have done/done wrong while practicing etc. it's a real eye opener! I thought I was hitting it really well he other week, watched the video back and It was awful!

Seeing it any time does this...... No matter how good my swing feels, actually seeing it never fails to disappoint me......although probably not so much the swing as the ageing lanky beanpole hurling it around......

 

[TEDSTAR]

I find it really useful although sometimes it shatters any illusion I had of getting to somewhere near an acceptable swing.
I am one of those people who learns much quicker by being shown my mistakes on playback rather than being told in a lesson.

During a Captain's Day about 15 gears ago we all got filmed teeing off the first.
Most people including the Pro were actually quite impressed with mine.
Time, however, has taken its toll and it is now far from a thing of beauty and not fit for publication anywhere.......

As a beginner I like seeing my swing as I can see how it's progressed.

 

[AmandaJR]

Nowadays I don't mind my swing at normal speed and can see why folks say "you have a nice swing". In SloMo it's not so good as I get time to pick it apart a bit but it's getting there and last week I finally looked as I want to at the top - no overswing and the club laid off slightly...nailed the shots too

What I hate is seeing my swing shadow on the course - sunshine today meant it was the first issue this year!!

+1 for me!

I like to see mine, just to see how far wrong I've gone since the last time.

Never fails to amaze me just how different feel is from reality.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

My pro films my swing every lesson and so I'm use to seeing myself. I don't want my swing to look like anyone else and its my own and I plan to do it my own way and enjoy the journey

I know if it is going wrong mcb, the ball does not go where I want it to......

This is the closest that i have to being able to see my current swing.....Iv seen heaps of footage of myself but was never able to warm to it....It looked OKish on video but the results weren't great...That was before the lessons.....Since them im starting to improve.......

The msot current one is below.... Before the lessons on the right and after my last lesson on the left.l havent shown this to many so be gentle:thup:
