Why don't you tout a success story or tell us something more about the product instead of just bumping your thread with the website?

Right now it is only available for the iPhone. Any decision that we make in regards to creating one for different phones will be market driven. If there is enough interest shown for other phones, then

I just placed an order for one of these.  I was using my iPing cradle - but it was kind of jerry rigged to get it to work.  I hope this holster works better.

I really wish this thread was labeled correctly to target iPhone users instead of the "golf world". Most golfers don't use iPhones and therefore don't need to bother with this thread.

They still have iphones?

I think you'd be surprised at how many golfers have iPhones...

I'm interested to hear how you like it after you've had a chance to use it.

Ha.  What if I promised to keep it in airplane mode?

For all of you out there with iPhones, it works great with the many swing applications that are already available in the app store.

Take an alignment rod, slide it in the ground, and then using the holster connect your iPhone and start videoing. Its simple and easy to use.

To all of you who do not have the iPhone and are reading this thread, my sincere apologies. The design was not meant to offend the other phone users. If there is demand in the future for the other phones then we will certainly work hard to create another design.

I was about to order one and it just dawned on me ... I would probably have to remove my phone from it's case to fit it into your holster, huh?

The case I have is kind of a pain to get on and off, that's the only reason I ask.

Yes you would have to remove your case when you are using the holster. Even though it may be a little bit of a pain to get your case on and off, the advantages of being able to video yourself hitting balls is well worth it. Especially if you are able to start making improvements to your swing mechanics and/ or ball striking.

I already do video myself, but I bring a little camcorder and a tripod.  It's not hard, but it is a little conspicuous and I don't really like to draw a lot of attention to myself at the range.  I think my phone on a stick will be a bit more subtle and not attract a crowd.

I think I will go ahead and order one ...

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By RandyBobbitt ·

      Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin.

      Sad tale.  Both the A's and Raiders.  IMO, cities shouldn't be building stadiums for MLB/NFL teams.  But that's the world we live in.   DAY 3:  30-min range session with irons and wedges.  Working on follow thru -- no hooks! 🙂

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By saevel25 ·

      Backswing: Body is responsible for taking the club around. Arms are responsible for making the club go up.  Downswing: The process is reversed. Weight Forward So, your arms need to do stuff. Set up to the ball. Do not raise your arms at all. Rotate your body as you would in the swing. You will notice your hands stay down near your right hip. So, how does the club get up? Your arms raise it up. You can't take your arms out of the swing. What you are describing might be more of a feel, but it also might not be correct.

      By klineka ·

      It depends on what you mean by "while the core remains still" I wouldn't consider his core "remaining still" here, DJ's abs, belly button, and belt buckle have rotated almost 90 degrees by the top of the backswing. Those components of his core then have to rotate/uncoil on the downswing. Far from remaining still IMO.

      It’s going to change but your basic setup feel should be about the same. Your body kind of adjusts to length and lie angle of the club. You’ll want to pay attention more to ball position as you change clubs more than how bent over you are. I understood what you meant from what your wrote.
