Hey guys. I got an app on my iPhone recently and I don't know how to use it properly just yet and it's just really the lines which confuse me. What do the lines mean and how can I use them to my advantage? Cheers.

Vague post of the year.

What app? What are you talking about?

I should've explained it better. I got a Swing Reader app and you can analyse your swing and it offers you a tool to draw lines on the body to help the analysis, only I don't actually know what they mean. So when analysing my own swing where do I put the lines?

I recommend seeing an instructor. If you don't know where to draw lines, some of us telling you where to draw them and what they mean won't do much for you.

The lines in and of themselves don't mean anything. What you would do with them would be to mark different things in your swing and then compare your body/hand/club/head position in relation to the lines, IE - the take away vs the downswing, your swing vs another persons swing, your swing vs your own different swing etc. Knowing what is correct and incorrect when the lines have been placed is the difficult part, and that is where I would follow iacas suggestion.

    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
