I went looking for apps for the phone the other day relating to golfing. and found a flood of apps. but I didn't want to go through 80 apps to find one wondering if anyone had knowledge of a good app preferably free and android. hopefully one that has easy marker lines that can be added. if I spend a couple dollars on one I want it to not be a shot in the dark and a really good one.

What kind of app are you looking for? A golf gps app for on the course to measure distances?

I have plenty of gps/course maps on my phone. I need one specifically for taking video of my golf swing. I've seen several analyzers and ones that turn on when it detects movements etc. but the reviews are all over the chart. then they have swing analyzers that require add on parts to the club or wrist or something. but not into paying that much.

just need something to record few seconds before movement and something that has lines that can be added in so I can check angles.

(sorry thought I had that information in the original posting)

Ok. That is what I was wondering. Your initial post didn't say what type of app you were looking for. I'm looking for the same thing.

I don't know if V1 Golf makes an Android app, but the iOS version does what you're looking for.  Take a look and see if they have a 'Droid app.

I like V1 golf.  I use it on my Samsung S3 (andriod).

These are Samsung S3 screenshots of videos in comparison mode.  I took the video of me, and downloaded from youtube the video of Na Yeon Choi (I really like her swing).

I see at address that she has bumped her hips a little forward giving her a tilt, a verticle line from the ball hits her by her left ear, she's looking straight down at the ball.  My hands are forward at address, I don't have the tilt and the verticle line is near my right ear. my face is not pointed as down towards the ball.  Her head stays steady, mine moves about 2 inches back and stays there (I should just start there like she does and my head will stay more steady)...

This is LSW Key 1 stuff, which I continue to work on.  There is a lot more to see on these comparisons, but I'll just work on one thing for now.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
