Re: Video, the good the bad, and the ugly

Hi James,

There was quite a debate some months ago here about the validity of using a camcorder to see your swing and use it to improve.

I am a firm believer that it has helped me no end. But you need to balance it off against knowing what you're looking at.

If you're set on using it, find a good coach who uses one too so that you can use it the same way he/she does.

Use it to augment your lessons, not crate them .That could be dangerous.

NB: A shutter speed of 1/2000 is quick enough to see all the frames as stills rather than blury.

Have fun with it!
