That's true, but we don't have the context of what you're hitting at when you do a side view.

I dunno. I think a straight "behind" view would get old pretty quickly. That's why I put the camera on top of the cart twice, and messed around with other views.

So this is completely unedited since I am trying to get our IT guy to install Movie Maker to stitch together all my clips. I vlogged 5 holes at Royal New Kent in Providence Forge, VA (Mike Stranz desi

Okay, I've been away from the forum for a while. But I'm back with a VLOG.  Yeah, I try to always play golf on my birthday. This year was rough, due to COVID-19 and horrible weather, but I got in

Here is my first golf vlog! Let me know what you guys think! Not sure why it won't let me embed it.

It doesn't have to be straight behind, it could be at an angle, but I think the direction of the shot should be a focus.  I think people are just as interested in the view of the shot as well as seeing the person hitting the ball.  This is just meant as advice from a viewer, no offense intended.

I love to hate this damn game.

I take no offense; I just disagree. I think the camera angles varying add interest.

You just need a drone acting as a blimp to give you the overhead view.

Yeah, invest in one of those remote control copter cams that they use in movies for aerial shots. Teach your daughter how to fly it and give us those PGA style ball flight clips!

To each their own.  I like doing offset angles with the camera so you can see the layout of the hole in the background.  Others like to be more creative about it.  I thought the camera angles Erik was doing on top of the cart and such were pretty dang cool.  That is what makes this fun.  People can try different things, you can get different views and it is more fun that way.  Also less talk, more Vlogs! :-D

I'm thinking of doing a few shots with the camera on the target line. I will probably use an older crappy camera to do this. You never know.

I believe mine shall be called, "Cinderella Story".

I look forward to seeing it.  I might be doing another one tomorrow as well.

I wonder if I could borrow my buddy's drone, or him and his drone and have him operate it. I might try and get out and do a test run on Saturday if possible. My buddy is the GM of a course and I'll have to run the idea by him of course. The drone is literally silent and can reach heights of 300-400 feet with no problem - so distraction is not really an issue as far as noise and flyover's are concerned. I just don't know if he's willing to allow for the "what if it crashes and hits somebody" factor, even though it's likely 1/1,000,000.

I wouldn't think there would be a bigger danger of someone getting hit by a golf ball than a drone. I wouldn't fly it over water or anything. It would be awesome if you could pull that off!

Very nice @mvmac , enjoyed hearing your thoughts of what you'd like to do before the shots.

@jamo I just watched your video on page 2 just now, your captions are hilarious!! Hope you'll do some more, if you do I'll definitely be watching :)

There was soccer on tv here last night and the course was empty , they already closed up before I got out so the flag on the first hole is missing (they take some that are close to the road in at night). I was literally the only one out playing so thought it would be a good time to give the filming a try! I did some commenting but when I came home I found out the microphone didn't really pick much of it up, it was probably too windy. Also I have to figure out how to get the quality a bit better, I filmed in HD but it doesn't really look like that on youtube now ... Hope some of you will enjoy watching, not much special going on but I thought I played ok and had fun doing the filming :)

Looks good. I liked some of the camera angles like the worm eye view while putting.

Nice. Why only 4?

Got a match tomorrow so I wanted to get in at least 9 and just didn't have enough time to film every hole.

Also had to film a posture video for a member ;-)

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…

      My Swing (billchao)

      By klineka ·

      I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
