I hope this is the correct forum to ask this:

Can anyone recommend an app that will allow me to slow down my swing on video that I can use on my iphone? What are the pros using to slow down the swing when they analyze a student?

Thanks!

Theres an app for iPhones named Ubersense. It was free when I downloaded it and its pretty good. You can watch your swing in slow motion or frame by frame. You can also save the videos and keep a note for each one.

Video is rubbish compared to a launch monitor as swings which "look" like an out-to-in swing as an example can actually be fine. For example:



Also I'd say that generally pros don't use a phone to video their swing I'd say. The iPhone 5S has slow motion capabilities which are better than nothing but even that footage isn't a patch on a decent camera (search the forum for "Casio" to get specific model info).

Having said all of the above I personally use the GASP software on my iPhone for swing feedback.

And a launch monitor can be mostly redundant when you get to see the ball fly. :)


Geez. "Rubbish," you say, eh? :P

The 5S is fine. 120 FPS in HD is pretty good.

http://analyzrgolf.com/ is good if you've got a Mac. I don't do much on my phone.

Thanks. I'll check that out.

I have an iphone 5S and recorded it in slo mo, but wasn't able to transfer it to my computer. I might eventually look into a casio camera as I'm starting to record my swing a lot and it might be worth it.

Ouch, that's a bit expensive. I do have a Mac, but might stick to the a cheaper app.

I'll second the recommendation on Ubersense. I mostly work with a camera and Analyzer but have used Ubersense when it's more convenient. Does a good job and has plenty of bells and whistles for a free app. My phone only does 30fps but that's fine for most of what I'm working on.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Thanks everyone for the feedback!!!!

There are two ways to do it:

1) Plug your phone into your computer and launch the "Image Capture" application.

2) Dropbox can automatically sync your photo roll over WiFi to "Camera Uploads".

Ouch, that's a bit expensive. I do have a Mac, but might stick to the a cheaper app.

$59 (and thats without using any of the coupon codes) is expensive? Shhhhh. Don't tell the thousands of customers who bought… :-)

[quote name="iacas" url="/t/73653/recommended-video-apps/0_100#post_971352"] It also… does a lot more than "free"! [/quote] To be clear, Ubersense doesn't hold a candle to Analyzr, not even close but it is handy in a pinch or when you just want to take a quick look at the range without bothering with your laptop. Start with Ubersense but save up for Analyzr. Well worth it.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

I like the V1 Golf app, only one I've tried really. There is a free version and I think a $5 version. You can do frame by frame and slow motion, draw lines and some other stuff. You can also compare two of your videos side by side, or dowload a pros swing to compare. Decent app overall.

I used Ubersense last night--it's very helpful and what I was looking for. Thanks for the rec. I'll likely purchase Analyzr in the future, but this will work for now.

My pro turned me on to Ubersense. It works well for what I was looking for. I also have a GoPro that I have not set up and used yet for my swing.

Cheers,

Attaining smooth slow motion will depend on the capability of the camera, not the capability of the app. The iPhone 5s is capable of 120fps which will give smooth slow motion at around 9 times slower than normal speed and the iPhone 6 at up to 240fps or 18 times slower than normal speed. If you are on a budget, the Sony PS3 camera is capable of 125fps. This app will allow you to capture and analyze with the Sony PS3 on a Windows PC or laptop: www.heath-studios.com/slowmotion

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
