Hi everyone!

Recently I started playing golf again. Played a bit when I was twelve then stopped for 6 years. Any pointers/analysis or criticism is welcome!

I have only recorded my SW shot on our front lawn. I will try to record a few other clubs at our school if necessary!

Gonna be tough to tell with what is basically a long chip shot.

The club appears to be rather short.

Is there any way to tell? Should the club be a certain length according to my height?

Thanks.

Most people use a longer iron like a six iron for swing videos to analyze iron shots.  It is a good middle length club.

@ChrisPietersen and myself went to our school to (finally) record our shots. We didn't wear the same clothes on purpose!

Similar clothes, similar advice ;-)

Turn those feet out and turn the hips, don't let them slide to the right. Will make the downswing pieces easier to accomplish.

As do the shorts!

They are called shorts and not mediums for a reason :-D

      A Decibel Meter as a Free Speed Meter?

      By GolfLug ·

      Decibels is sound 'pressure' not wave frequency. From that perspective a SGI Iron will have very different pressure wave than a blade even with the same speed and other variables considered equal. Additionally, since your phone will not be in direct path the turbulence difference (which generates the sound 'pressure) will have much lesser variance. In other words you will have convergence at one particular speed. Maybe it's this 90MPH speed with your 6i. But I doubt you will have proportional deviation above or below the speed to give you anything will reliability.  And other speeds? 80, 90?

      A Decibel Meter as a Free Speed Meter?

      By iacas ·

      You could have saved us all some time by realizing I tend to know what I'm talking about when it comes to science and tech. 😛  What? The only way they would imply that it would be "possible" is if you were able to spend six figures (minimum) AND that doesn't include the swing robot that could reach peak speed at the same exact location every time. No, they didn't say it was possible for someone like you to do anything remotely good. Session to session. The PRGR doesn't work the same way - it samples the speed, from behind (inline with the direction of travel) with radar, and takes the highest number it registers. The distance from the PRGR isn't super relevant. You're not reading. Or understanding. No to both. The former is because of the microphones, and the latter is because a clubhead swing more closed versus more open will have a different air flow and thus a different pitch and volume. Clubheads are not symmetrical. You're missing the point. How reflective some of that stuff is could matter. The sounds it generates to background noise could matter. 85 dBs is generally considered ear-injuring volume. You don't "need to find an app" because this will not work at all.
