I was considering getting one, but it's not really the best for golf swing analysis. It distorts the image which makes it less useful for golf. Plus, you have to get the backpack to replay your videos, which is both inconvenient and tiny. I know @Beachcomber has one, @iacas doesn't use his for golf, and I think @rkim291968 has one. I asked this question late last year. You can start reading here: [URL]http://thesandtrap.com/t/39036/comprehensive-camera-for-filming-your-golf-swing-thread/180#post_1075306[/URL]

I use it to view slow mo of my swing (currently to see if my hand is flipping at impact).   Check if the camera already has an updated FW released by GoPro to support 720p/250FPS.   That's the mode I use to tape my swing.   I don't have an app that can replay the video frame by frame - am too lazy to search for one.   If you have such app, that'd help analyze your swing much easier.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
