I have been out of the game for a while. I played a lot in high school, then went to college and essentially quit golfing for 4 years. Recently I have gotten the bug and want to get more serious than I was in high school. One of the things that I want to do is video tape my golf swing. I have never seen my own swing. Now that I have a job and some money I am looking for the equipment that I will need to do some more "high-tech" analysis (both hardware and software). I found a website for a company called P3ProSwing that makes simulators and swing analysis software. They use Logitech webcams for their video analysis kits. I have no clue what to look for though (is Frames-Per-Second the most important aspect?). What do you (or your teachers) use for video taping your swing?

I am also looking at the P3ProSwing simulators. They are about $1,000 for the sensors (bare bones), which doesn't seem to bad to me. Does anyone out there have a simulator set-up of your own? What do you have? How well does it work? And do you have any recommendations?

Thanks in Advance!

Personally, I'm not sure it's worth paying that money for your own swing analyzer. I got a training course at Golf-Tec for quite a bit less than $1000, and they do a full video analysis. They even give you the video's for future reference. So unless you plan on competing at a high level, having your own analysis tool seems like overkill.

That's just my opinion.

I also would like a video swing analyzer but $1000 is too expensive for me

A bunch of fancy gizmo's and monitors will not improve your game in the slightest. What does it really mean to you that your ball had a spin rate of 3300 rpm average vs 3100 rpm.

Send me your video, I do analysis all the time. I'll take you through 5 simple steps that will improve your game and you'll never even need a lesson.
