14 Do’s and Don’ts for Letting People Play Through in Golf
Trackman – Why guess when you can measure
Improve Golf
TrackMan provides hard data for the relationship between your swing, impact position and where the golf ball lands.
It measures swing speed, angle of impact, distance, direction, and spin rates amongst 26 different parameters of club data, launch data, flight data and combine data.
Why rely on guesswork when you can use technology like Trackman to gain accurate, data-driven insights?
Using TrackMan removes a lot of the time-consuming hours spent on the range (and the resulting guesswork) from your practise routine.
TrackMan Pro will measure the full trajectory of any shot, from a 6 foot chip to a 400 yard drive, all while calculating your shot in real-time and in 3D. It has an accuracy of 1 foot per 100 yards.
How can Trackman change your game?
TrackMan isn’t just a measuring device, it also provides important feedback too.
Using TrackMan means instead of relying on ‘feeling’ shots are better you can see it immediately through improved numbers which is more useful, meaningful, satisfying.
When a player understands their golf swing and the importance of the ball flight laws it saves time that was once spent either examining video or looking in a mirror to gauge the feel of a different movement.
TrackMan is at the very root of understanding your swing and your ball strike.
How it works
TrackMan uses radar tracking technology to measure the full trajectory of a golf shot and then provides a clear picture of shot dispersion and distance.
Its software is so precise that it can accurately display how open or closed the clubface was during impact and where the impact position of the ball on the clubface was.
For the swing itself, it can measure the plane and direction of the swing (in to out/out to in/square to square) as well as the angle of attack.
All of which provides clear, un-arguable information that helps in game improvement.
Coaching
For coaches, using TrackMan provides indisputable data.
It confirms exactly what is happening at impact and enables a more trusting relationship between golfer and coach, who both see the same numbers.
When a golfer makes changes, they can see it on TrackMan, which can both validate change and confirm improvement. This makes for more positive, efficient coaching sessions, where all the guesswork has been removed.
“THE TRUST ASPECT (BETWEEN COACH AND STUDENT) IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF LEARNING” SEAN FOLEY.
Using TrackMan helps develop that trust in a safe environment because the numbers are there and because the numbers are correct, it reaffirms the coach/student relationship.
TrackMan isn’t just numbers, for golfers who want to see what their swing is doing, in either real time or in slow motion, the high definition playback functions will help illustrate what is going on at every point in the swing, including overlaying lines and being able to pinpoint specific movements.
Many of the world’s best coaches utilise TrackMan data for their pupils including, David Leadbetter, Sean Foley, Denis Pugh, Jim McLean and Pete Cowan.
And some of the best known professionals also use TrackMan as part of their practice including, Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood, Luke Donald, Ian Poulter, Suzann Petterson and Yani Tseng.
TrackMan has been designed to monitor and measure the most important position in the swing – the impact position.
For years golfers have sought swing changes that moved hands higher, rotated hips and looked to control swing paths.
This often overlooked the fundamental truth of returning the clubface back to its proper impact position.
The GolfSchool can help you do this and develop your game quicker and more effectively than hours of aimless ball-hitting on the range.
