I use my Iphone, it's not ideal, but it gets the job done since I can slow down the swing on the computer.

I video about ten minutes worth of swings every day I go to the range...

PS- when I ask what about good quality and value I mean excellent video quality. I want to have great clarity and no blur during the swing.
Thanks for your recommendations.

Chose no on the poll but realized I do have a digital camera capable of decent video. Have never filmed my swing though. Always kind of figured I know my swing has flaws, but why bother changing what I've been doing for years and have learned to use pretty efficiently. Now that I'm getting kind of serious about my game again though I might have to try it out and post it so you guys can tear it apart. Scared what I might find...

Seeing videos on youtube with the super slow video (casio cameras) makes me want to buy one.

Once you guys see your swing, do you guys completely change your swing to make it look pretty? ala Adam Scott style

I have a Canon G11 that I bought for photography, but have used it to record my swing.

You don't need a tripod for the camera. Like another member posted, just buy a Gorillapod and attach it to your golf bag.

Just bought a Kodak Playsport that supposedly does 60fps in 720. I also got a gorrilapod type tripod. We'll see how it works, but I'm excited!

Do you guys have any suggestions at good priced cameras with high fps? I'd like to ideally go even further than 60 fps to really be able to see it in slow motion. How much would such cameras go for? Kind of a newbie when it comes to cameras. Not really my thing :/

Thanks!!

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      By boogielicious · Posted

      The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
