I realize that many of us take videos of our swings to check out our technique. As a supporter of the TST, I noticed that there is a discount available for Analyzr. I use the Evolvr service and also noticed that the swing coaches use it. So, my question is... As a golfer/learner trying to improve... Would this help me with my personal development, or is the camera / video just as good for the individual golfer. I can truly see the benefits in using this if I was say a swing instructor with a lot student (defintely not me), but I am looking at the student version for personal analysis to be used in addition to Evolvr.

Thought? Anybody use the student version? Or, is the Evolvr service and video a better solution? I like the Evolvr service and am going to stay with it, since it has helped me immensely. 

If Amalyzr is good tool to supplement the video... wondering how to order it and get the discount. Thanks in advance for any help here.

I got the student version and found it very useful. I could film my practice and then compare practice to my lessons to gage my progress.

It is a great tool and something that can be very useful. For me it's a lot easier to see what's going on with my swing when I pop it into Analyzr than trying to look at it on my camera/phone. And obviously you can also compare your swing to pros (or whoever you want) which is cool. It's also very easy to use.

For the discount I would just check in with @iacas.

I used to think I didn't need it, but got the free version and saw it had some merits. The more I used it, the more I got out of it and bought it and realized the error of my thinking. Then bought the pro version and got/currently get even more use out of it. Yes, you can't intellectually learn the golf swing, but seeing how the swing works in detail gives you confidence, more of it in working on the things your pro tells you to and quenching your curiosity when you see a different swing and wonder how it works.

I'm amazed at how some people can see a swing at regular speed and pick something out and when you see it in slow motion, oh, I see what he meant. The more video you watch, the better you get at picking that stuff out. A lot of it is probably intuitive/innate, but it's a skill you can develop, imho. I see things now I never noticed years ago.

Analyzr is for Mac OS. If you have Windows, you need something like V1 Home Software

I haven't tried it but I wanted to post this just so people know one is available.

Ah, yes! Thanks for the heads up. I'm a computer guy, so I have both Windows and MAC on my desk with multiple monitors. I'd be interested to know the differences between using each of those (other than the different platform requirements).

I think I'm at this same place... Especially where you mention about working on things that my pro tells me and quenching the curiosity part..... I can tend to easily walk off the plantation on things I should be focusing on and go off and experiment with this or that trying to find the magic bullet. I always need to keep myself in check on that, so I am thinking that this may be a good tool to help... Especially since I already take a lot of videos on my swing. Thanks for the insights.

Yes, I downloaded that. Looks good (except for the watermark). So... how does one get the discount as a Supporter of TST?

I figured I'd just add to this thread rather than start another, feel free to remove or PM me and I will start a new thread.

This is probably a question for @iacas, but if anyone else knows the trick, let me know...

It seems that more often than not, when playing video back in Analyzr (Pro version), the video tends to be a bit laggy or stutter-y. Now this really doesn't bother me when I'm working within Analyzr, as I am usually playing swings back with the arrow keys one frame at a time and checking positions and how my body is getting from one to the next, so I never really need smooth full speed playback. However, I was thinking of using Analyzr to create My Swing videos of synched-up DTL and FO views (I have two iPads). Problem is, the few experiments I've tried have all been choppy video. 

Any ideas on how to address this? Is it the type of video files I'm uploading or is it just something inherent in the way Analyzr processes video?

Yours in earnest, Jason.

@Ernest Jones, your computer is a combination of too slow and too RAM-starved for HD playback.

It works quite smoothly on my computers.

Is there a way to step down the resolution on Analyzr?

No. Record them in a lower resolution, or otherwise edit them to be something a bit different.

I almost never watch HD videos in Analyzr, not at full speed (frame by frame as you do).

Alright, thanks. I'll play around with it a bit when I have some free time.

    • Thanks everyone. An ace is luck. Eagle takes more skill. Now back to your regular scheduled programming.    Wordle 1,014 4/6 ⬜🟨🟩⬜🟨 🟨🟩🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

    • You all are right, its not that big of an issue, I'll leave it alone, especially after looking at that picture of Tigers beat up putter. But I also noticed the small circle worn on the sweet-spot where he hits it every time, I definitely don't have one of those. Thanks for the replies   
    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
