I wanted to get something to hold my iPhone for video recording my swing.. I was at Walmart and purchased the Selfiestick for just under $15. Granted I am planning on working something out with a friend of mind and I will change it so that in able to put in the ground or rest on something, but that isn't the best part. When I opened it I found a circle thingy and quickly realized it must be for remote picture/video capture.. I quickly paired my iPhone with it and it works like a charm.. It captures when you click and it stops when you click.. It has a hanger thingy so I can either put it on my key chain or hang it by my side.. Instant remote control, small, and works at a long distance not that I need it to work at that far a distance anyway.. Thought I would share, and once I adjust it I will take a picture of the final outcome..

That should work great for filming your swing, and will be less bulky and obtrusive than a tripod.  Since it extends to 46", you could slide it down in your bag just like a club, then position your bag behind you - or you could attach it to an alignment rod stuck into the ground.  Lots of possibilities.

It makes things so much easier on so many levels for me.. It is just simple, and small..

[/quote] Yeah I thought about that too.. I was thinking I would just take the parts that are used to hold the iPhone and then putting them on a stick somehow that I can put into the ground.. But I like the idea of connecting it to a stick too..

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

      PING G425 9 Iron Rattle/Noise

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.

      Maintaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.

      Golf Workouts

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
