Golf swing analysis drawings

I'm looking for information on drawing lines and angles in various positions on my golf swing videos. Is there a book or website that show numerous line/angle analysis drawings?

Re: Golf swing analysis drawings

I'm not sure what you're looking for.

I'll assume you have the appropriate software.

Common lines include:

Shaft plane
Spine angle
Spine tilt
Shoulder plane
'Tush line' (hip plane)
Lines outside the shoulders (to detect sway)

Good luck in your search.

Re: Golf swing analysis drawings

That's exactly what I'm looking for except a bunch more if they exist. And yes I do have the software.

Thanks for the post.

Re: Golf swing analysis drawings

I'm usong "cswing'. I looked at:

V1, JC Video and Golf coach.......

I downloaded and tried JC, V1 and cswing.

Cswing had the drawing tools I liked including angles like 56 degrees, had plenty of pro golfers to view, captured video from my camcorder to my laptop ok and I think, had the biggest viewable screen not including their toolbars and such.

It's great. I now have an idea what to work on with my swing rather than just going to the range and hitting thousands of balls.

Glad to answer any questions.

Re: Golf swing analysis drawings

I'm just curious as to whether you actually spent the money to get the license, or whether or not you're messing around with the 2 week trial.

IF I was going to spend money on software, I'd buy CSwing. However, between a trajectory mat, swing speed radar, and V1Home, I've got about everything I need to analyse my swing.

I wasn't trying to be derogatory - just curious if you got excited with it's possibilities and dropped the coin to make it yours!

What's a trajectory mat and which one do you have?

Re: Golf swing analysis drawings

A trajectory mat is a high tech piece of ...

well...


tarp, really. (I bought mine from Wishon).

It's a heavyweight vinyl (or something similar) with a wonderful grid on it.

You hang it, set up a tee so far away, and hit a ball into it.

Then you run the pythagorean theorem to figure out your launch angle.

I find it much easier to use a little bit of software.

I believe the defacto standard for trajectory mats is 10' away, starting 2' from the ground.

At any rate, it's a fine piece for launch angle. However, I think that becomes automatic with a couple of lines in CSwing, doesn't it?

I really liked CSwing, it was just outside my budget (and justification ability) at the time. I guess having spent some pretty coin on a loft and lie machine, CSwing would be a drop in the bucket at this point

There appears to be a shareware version of cswing.

I know exactly what your are referring to. I came across a website that taught you the proper camera angles, and what you should look for in a golf swing - and the drawings were animated. I probably bookmarked the site on my home computer and I will have a look for you and see if I can find it, and post it here - it definetly exists on the Net.

I am curious about your progess - the idea of video taping and analysising your swing sounds very promising - as opposeed to hitting thousands of golf balls - especially!

Re: Golf swing analysis drawings

Jamesh,

I have learned a lot about the golf swing and mine in particular.

I now, for the first time when I go to the range, have something to work on except the latest thing I saw on the GolfChannel or read in the latest golf magazine.

I must say that I'm not scoring as well as I was but I'm willing to go through this transition to ultimately have a better swing and play better golf.

I haven't showed it to anyone that hasn't got some benefit out of it either by watching their swing or the thirty or so pros I have that can be shown, frame by frame from "face on" and "don the line".

Hope that fills in some of your questions.
