I just got myself a SwingTalk. It is developed by GOLFZON. I might be a little late compared to all the people who got it earlier in the year and I'd have to say that I wouldn't have minded getting it as soon as it came out! Here’s a little review for those who might be debating whether to get this product or not. Hope it helps.
I’ll start off with some common issues that people might run into. Before you try anything with the device, make sure that it’s charged. I’m not sure about everyone else’s products, but mine came uncharged.
You can download SwingTalk application on google play or app store both. It’s essential to operate this gear and to check your swing instantly.
The package consists of a main device, a charging cable, and an instruction manual.
As you can see from the pictures, the device is very small and light. Installing is simple. Plug in the device into the tip of the club grip, turn it on by button on center, and pair it with your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth. The device needs to be set firmly into the club. If it isn’t placed firmly, it may turn after a swing and can’t recognize the swing well.
When I was browsing the information about SwingTalk, I came across with a video in YouTube. It’s the video about how to set up and use the SwingTalk. Here is the link:

Well, it is easy to set up and use.
Here are some features that I want to point out.
It demonstrates graphically and by audio each swing's speed and tempo, and it also shows angle of club face. I am impressed by how it gives instant feedback after my every shot. When I take a swing I don’t like to watch my mobile that often because I would like to concentrate on my every single shot. The data of every shot of mine is quite accurate, and it helps
identify deficiencies in my swings.
Club speed and detailed info display
For example, my club speed reached 96 mph in one of my shots and the SwingTalk told me this info
immediately upon my every shot.
Shot data analysis
The accurate data of face to path and club path, shaft lean, cocking rate, face to address, face to path and club path are clearly shown on details.
Swing analysis (swing angle)
I also got the very precise info such as loft angle, lie angle and attack angle in my every shot. It’s dedicated by graphics as well on my statistics with 3D image.
Before using this analyzer, like other golfers, I just took every swing without knowing the results and I didn’t know whether my swings were accurate, but this analyzer shows the weaknesses of my swing by more accurate data with analysis. I believe my swings can be improved a lot with the “accurate” help of this analyzer.
It’s hard to say which feature is the most important, but I personally found the swing analysis and the swing test to be the most helpful features. As a casual golfer, I find consistency to be the most difficult factor to achieve. My swings don’t deviate much from my average at the driving range, but it goes wild on the field. Having an actual visual aid allows me to keep practicing to build consistency, and now I feel like I perform much better out on the field.
