I have a mini tripod for my camera.  The tripod only cost $7 and there is a standard interface that screws into most cameras (Canon, Panasonic, etc).  Really it is an easy setup and best of all I get HD video from this.  Highly recommended.


No iPhone for me, I have a different one.  I don't know why there are so many iPhone accessories available (e.g. Target has a whole section) while everyone with a different phone has to get their stuff online, and get so many fewer choices.

I have a blackberry playbook with a 1040i HD camera... Given my limited space, I have to film DTL. As you can see from my videos... its pretty sharp with the proper lighting.

I also posted a thread that can help you cut, capture, and condense your video. Just search under my username.

There is a new mount coming soon that can mount to your golf bag and alignment rods. You can see it on our site.

Since you're a former sponsor, and because I contributed $33 myself and would like to see this project get funded, I'm adding a link here for others to see:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/667763688/x-mount-not-your-typical-smartphone-mountits-mobil/

Please back this project. The $33 or $37 options are great benefits. I still have and use my original holster - the only downside is that I can't use it indoors. The clamp will solve that problem nicely.

This looks like an awesome tool. Better than GorillaPod or whatever it's called. Take my money!

Really liking this overall compared to other iPhone mounts anywhere. I'm backing it.

I was thinking. I could rig a rod attachment on my nightstand and use the clamp so I can place the smartphone for optimal video viewing position in bed. Another possible use.

Seems like a great product. Not sure I'd use it for anything other than golf, though, haha.

Family photos, clamp on chair, timer, everyone is in photo. Traveling selfies. Fixing stuff - arm puts camera in out of reach places, take photos of hard to see nooks.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
