ncreasingly the golf coaching world has gravitated to expensive radar devices that
give you the minutia of your golf swing. Want to know how much you spin your
7-iron? Check. Want to know the smash factor of your driver? ey are all over
it. But all of this comes with a cost—a big one if you're talking Trackman or Flightscope,
the industry leaders in the space. Don't have the cash of an Ian Poulter or Tiger Woods,
who have their own personal radar devices they can use on the range? Few do. But
now there is a group of value-priced options that give you some of the details of the
expensive computer-aided radars and connect with your smartphone. ese claim to
be personal digital coaches, providing details on everything from club path to how
you can practise more efficiently.
