Saw this ad and wondered if anyone has any experience with this technology. It's pretty expensive, so before I spend the money on it wanted to see if it is worth it?

Turn your bogeys into birdies and your eagles into condors with a newly improved golf swing. K-VEST golf swing analysis is followed by professional feedback and tips from a seasoned golf. K-VEST TPI 3D is a portable, wireless system that lets you use live video, realtime audio, and visual biofeedback to get quick summaries on six swing essentials. Three state-of-the-art sensors in the vest, belt, and glove pick up data from your swing and transfer it to a computer. If you raise your club casually during the backswing, K-VEST knows. If your body turns toward the target in the backswing, K-VEST knows.

After you're finished golfing with the K-VEST,a teaching pro takes you through the analysis step by step and gives you tips to improve your game.

Finally did it and it was pretty cool. It uses sensors to record your alignment, posture, pelvis and upper body turn at the top, pelvis movement, upper body movement, and then compares where you're at vs. an ideal position

Of course a professional with a good eye may be able to do the same, but it really allowed you to feel what proper positions should feel like and allowed you to correct them. Which is good for me because I am a real feel player and having someone tell you something vs. feeling it yourself are completely different.

By the end of the session I was really puring the ball.

    • Hey, thanks for the feedback. I do lift weights but I’m also adding yoga or Pilates for mobility and flexibility to my routine. 
    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
