Anyone out there received an in depth swing analysis from someone before?

Beneficial?  Any feel vs real struggles out there?  We probably all think our swings look like a pro's.

Do you mean an in person swing analysis with video or maybe GEARS? I certainly don’t think my swing looks like a pro and I have done both video and GEARS.

Tons of people here have done this. Many have done it with me as I'm an instructor/coach.

I have met very few people who think their swing looks like a pro’s.

Common struggle. No, my swing looks nothing like a professional’s

Would there be a real benefit to seeing in a video where my swing is not correct?  Feel like it could just send me down rabbit holes trying to hit positions

Definitely recommend you taping it, but it would not likely be helpful for you to see it. Better to have someone who knows what your biggest issue is make corrections…

I don’t watch myself fail at a skill and hope to get better; I suppose I  could, but makes more sense to seek advice/recommendations who are professionals. That’s why they’re there.

Taking video of your swing is like taking a nude selfie. You hate to do it but it's gotta be done.

Hilarious!  I was thinking of an online video submission and get it looked at and analyzed.  Have some buddies that said it was great for them but they are pretty dopey.

Thanks for the Evolvr link.  I may look at that but maybe at that price it makes more sense to just go get a Pro lesson.  I've done that in the past but haven't been impressed or helped much.

This was the FB group i was invited to providing some free tips, drills and analysis.  I was surprised to see a custom video analysis provided back https://www.facebook.com/groups/magswinggolf 
It's public so was hesitant to post my swing just yet.  figured i'd check here first.

Has anyone else been here or tried them?

You’ve ignored two of my posts which offer you the free ability to post your swing here for analysis. Many here have done this with great results.

Definitely not ignoring.  more evaluating.  The posts also come in fast.  Which one offered a free evaluation online?  Is that Erik's ?

This site. Sometimes he will make comments/suggestions, sometimes others will.

    • Day 22 - 2026-01-11 More mirror work. Back outdoors tomorrow.
    • Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)
    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
