I play a lot of golf. Shouldn’t I be getting better? Instead my golf game is heading south.

This year I’ve been lucky enough to travel to West Virginia and then to Ireland for golf and I’ve been playing at least twice a week here on Cape Cod. By this time I should be playing well! You would think so, anyway. Well, sigh, moan… my game is not so good. I don’t know exactly what I’m doing wrong. Whatever it is, I know it’s something I’ve got to fix if I’m going to keep plugging away at this sport I really do love.

I just came across a really cool App that just might hold the ticket for my golf game to improve. It’s called Ubersense and it was developed by some techies in Boston, MA. It’s a FREE – I said FREE! App you can download to your smart phone or iPad. Have a friend shoot a short video of you swinging your club… once from the front and a second from the side, and then compare your swing with the swing of the pros that are already packaged into the App. You can learn a lot when you see your swing.

It’s simple to use, and the insights you get from watching the way you swing the golf club is—shall I say, enlightening? More like OMGawd… I had no idea I was lifting my head and swinging like a ferris wheel!!!

If you want to go a step further, you can connect with one of the PGA Pros Ubersense has signed up as consultants. Send one of them a copy of your video and request a review. That’s what I did. I’ve started working with Skip Guss of GolfRite.com in Southboro Mass. He’s the one who put me onto this new App and reviewed my swing. The video above is a copy of what Skip sent back to me… You can see I’ve got a ways to go towards perfecting my swing.

If you want to see how your swing compares with the pros, go to Ubersense.com and download the App to your smartphone or iPad. It’s FREE.  The company is in the process of building the analysis model which should be ready soon. In the meantime, Skip Guss is offering an analysis of your swing at a major discount of $9.95 (normally $40.) He will also include a personalized exercise and drill for you to work on. You can reach him via email at golfrite@gmail.com

And then let me know what you think in the comment area below. By the way, if you’ve got some suggestions about my swing, add those too. 🙂
