Lots of discussions about various analyzers, but can't find one about these two in comparison.

I'm thinking of getting an analyzer as I am sure I have some basic swing faults. I've been to lots of pros, but can't afford a weekly session and I'm hoping that one of these gadgets will help provide some fedback.

I've narrowed it down to the Skypro or the Zepp 3D. I like the data that Skypro gives, but like the idea of being able to wear the Zepp during a round of golf to see how my shots vary in play.

Does anyone have any experience of these two and can you impart any knowledge?

I have both SkyPro and Zepp 2.0.  

The biggest difference is SkyPro is attached to the shaft of the club and Zepp 2.0 attaches to your golf glove.  In terms of information, they give you similar feedback about your swing, swing speed, face angles, tempo etc but Zepp provides some addition views of not only the club but your hands as well.  

I liked SkyPro a lot but moving it from club to club and calibrating it each time with your phone can get annoying.  Zepp attaches to you golf glove (a problem for those who don't wear gloves) and needs to be calibrated only once unless something goes wrong.  Swapping clubs with Zepp requires just a few touches of the app.  

In terms of the app, I actually like Zepp better in that it will ask you to swing 3 or 10 times and based on the data that's captured, suggest drills for you to work on to improve your swing.  I also found Zepp to be more accurate with regards to my swing speed.  

I bought SkyPro 2 years ago so I'm not sure if the device they offer today is any better than the one I have but based on my own testing I'd recommend Zepp 2.0.

Thanks for this.

I stopped wearing a glove a couple of months ago. I don't think it will be too much of an imposition to start again.

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.
