Data in relation to your shots you see

We live in a day and age now where everything is data driven.  In my last 15 years of coaching using data of what the ball is doing for my players and what each of my students is doing with their body in their swings has greatly improved my coaching and how my players improve.

Literally your body motions can be measured and when this data is compared to the shot shapes you see that you prefer then this allows any golfer to find out what and how the best version of themselves is when they play.  As a biomechanic expert in the golf swing, my partnering with SportsboxAI allows me to give immediate feedback visually to my student and also transfer data to my student.

This data helps the player 'feel' certain motions when they hit shots.  The data can be helpful in improving the swing and is even more valuable to better or elite players because the data of what their body is doing in the swing becomes the blueprint for a golfer to take to the range for practice or to the course.

Data is powerful information for any golfer, it can help you understand the feels you have when you hit a good shot and it helps you see when poor shots are struck, what unique areas in your swing may need improved for you to achieve your desired outcome for your golf game.

As a golfer you see certain shots on the range or the course and you have an aha moment and state "OMGosh, that was it! That felt amazing".  As a golfer you know these moments are elusive and do not happen often, but when these aha moments happen you wish you had a way to harness that moment in time and hold on to it.

At the moment you have that aha moment it is literally also one of the 'best versions of yourself' that you can have as a golfer.  When I apply my video to a lesson of a players swing and I can also support this video of the shot you hit with the data of what your body is doing during that great shot, then this is setting the template for any golfer to follow.  .

If the best version of you is not there and you do not see the best shot then I can use my video assessment and my body motion measurement to help you understand what will need to be done to get you to your next level of golf...what ever your next level it is that you want it to be.

All golfers no matter what level of play they are at practice because they want to get better.  Golfers practice because they are trying to improve their technique, find the feel of the shot they are attempting to improve and then execute that outcome on the course.

That is why it is important for golfers to embrace that in this day in age everything is data driven.  Data can really help golfers.  Golfers look for more distance so they look for ball speed, clubhead speed, they monitor the path of the club from data and they monitor the angle of attack of the club with data.  If you are buying a driver you will want to know the launch angle of the shot and the backspin of the driver (from data) so you will get the maximum return on your investment with the new driver you are being fit for.

When I coach with motion measurements of what your body is doing with each shot  then this is giving me fact based information (data) on what you are doing in your swing and does it match the data of very efficient swings? There is not guesswork from the naked eye, so there is less room for error in a shot being assessed.  But more importantly; a golfer will improve their swing much faster when data is also presented about their body, just like a golfer wanted data for the perfect fitting driver for them.

Golf instruction is trending dramatically to more fact based information so each student can improve their motions more efficiently and at a much faster rate than ever before.

There are many levels of golfers, beginners, intermediate, advanced, and elite.
You are in one of those levels and three dimensional information that I can extract from my SportsboxAI coaching platform can help you understand the areas  that need to be improved as a beginner or intermediate player to help you become a better version of yourself on the course.

If you are an advanced or elite player then the data I can reveal can help us see if your body positions have changed at all for some reason? Perhaps your set up at address with your driver is slightly different for some reason?  When I coach better players I use their specific data points that work for them for there best shots.  This is what I call their authentic self.....the true good player they are.

Better players rely on feel all the time but cannot really tell if the feel is the same from day to day.  Every golfer knows that it is an elusive challenging sport and this is why people love playing it.  The love the challenge of golf.

Coaching golf for me has been fun for the past 30 years because I love to watch a player improve their swing, lower their scores, hone their skills and more importantly...have more FUN PLAYING GOLF.

When it comes to data in your swing, the data accumulated can help you improve at a faster rate.  If you are an advanced golfer and really enjoy your current swing and who you are, then data can also give you a base line of information to rely on if you start seeing shots off line, missing the target, etc.

In the US Open at Pinehurst #2 course the winner Bryson DeChambeau was assisted in his winning from data he and his coach had gathered.  He was not playing well going into the tournament but a week prior he and his coach went to get some basic information on his swing based on how his body was reacting in each swing.  Because he was occasionally fading tee shots and not drawing them Bryson felt off in his swing motion.  But the shot shape was off and his data of spin and curve he was used to seeing had changed.  This was a red flag alarm moment for him.

His authentic swing had changed and they were on a quest to find the answer. Long story short, they discovered it.  With the naked eye or video they could not find the key area that was causing this chain reaction that led to the fade.They went back to the data of his best swings of his authentic self that they had measured and his body positions and turns and spine rotation and tilts and found one area that was dramatically changing his shot shape.

With the knowledge in hand within 3 days he was back to striking it really well and his opening Thursday round of 67 and hitting 13 of 14 fairways was the proof in his mind that he was back on track.  He became extremely confident again and as all golfers know, when you have confidence you are  a powerful creator in any sport!

Data can be a good thing to help any golfer create change in their swing faster.  It can also be a powerful tool to help you measure what your body is doing when you see your best shots.  When better movements are created and measured and you see the shot you want to see, then it will give you the feels you need to take to the course.  So those feels also bring confidence with you to the course.  If you are more confident you will play better golf!
