I've heard it's not accurate. Wonder how sales are doing? http://www.att.com/accessories/specialty-items/swingbyte-2-golf-swing-analyzer.html?partner=LinkShare&siteId;=lw9MynSeamY-mZIAr.GT6sdHigfhTNa57A

For only $10 it seems like it might be worth a try.

Umm...I can sell you a bunch of other random stuff that does't work very well. ;-)

Yours in earnest, Jason.

I've been leery of those devices in fear that self diagnosis could lead to undoing what I work on with my instructor. On my own I don't want to chase numbers, especially not numbers that may or may not be accurate, just continue what I do with him. I've yet to have a follow up lesson where my numbers haven't improved only working through the drills he assigned. The one very small full swing change we made was months ago and my guess is we won't move on until 2015.

Like what?

I would've given it a shot for $10. IIRC it had swing speed and if only that worked decent I would pay $10 for it. Why is AT&T; selling it?

If it's the original SwingByte, it's been replaced by the SwingByte 2 or higher. there WERE issues with V1 like the clip not holding very well, connectivity issues, and stuff like that

Have one and it really messes with me when I am practicing and decided to put it away. Trackman and a few other expensive devices are about as good as you can get but most of us cannot afford those things.   I tend to regress when I start relying heavily on numbers.  I focus more on ball flight and how far the ball goes.  If you learn the ball flight laws you really do not need these electronic gadgets, but they sure are fun to play with though.

I glued an old coffee cup to a mop handle. It's a really shitty ball retriever but...it's only $7. C'mon, $7, how can you go wrong?

I'll take it depending on how long the handle is but I want fee shipping.

It said Swingbyte 2. It's sold out though so I guess it's really neither here nor there, unless someone has it somewhere else for $10 it was probably a mistake.

I can make that work, but you'll have to buy two.

I paid about $150 for the original.  Used it for maybe an hour.  It didn't hold well, had connectivity issues, and was more of a pain than it was worth.

I probably would have bought game golf if not for my experience with the swingbyte. Instead I will wait until the reviews are all complete and the bugs worked out.

Fee shipping???  Is that where you pick whatever "fee" you want to ship it......

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
