Fantastic!

I’ve been at golf for 50 years with poor success. Lessons have helped but the technology of this device has helped more than all of them. It’s helped me learn about the mechanics of a swing that I never knew. I’m now down to a 12 handicap. My only problem is trying to understand the app and what the stats are telling me but I’m getting it. I never really expected a lot of support but the people at HackMotion have reached out to me several times. Their support is awesome. I couldn’t be happier.

Better than lessons

I’ve been struggling with shaking the ball over the last couple months and have not been using my Haq motion as much. I instantly improved my impact/compression and ball flight with just a 15 minute session. You may have saved me from going crazy and giving up golf. Thank you.

Fantastic Traing Aod

This training aid will definitely help your golf swing get dialed in if you have swing faults. I used this to shot in the 70’s for the first time last year. Such a fantastic training aid for golfers of all levels.

1st week HM

Well, I thought my swing was OK, but it was not. HM showed my weak spots, especially at impact. I still can’t get any flexion at impact…this is after a week. Played my usual 9-holes which I usually shoot +6. Yesterday I was +4. Very impressed with the progress so far.

How it should be done

I love Hack Motion. I have led product at different software companies, and I can tell you that the people that are running product at Hack Motion are exceptional. I also love how everything is included in your tier without a monthly charge, and they just keep on delivering more and more value. This is so good and so helpful for my game that I kind of want to invest in them, which is really saying something.

Outstanding training aid

I’ve only had HM 4 a couple of months I use about 3 times per week but my ball striking is so much cleaner and precise I’ve managed to shave 0.4 off my handicap and I really enjoy have real time feedback.

Drill practice non functional

Anytime I try to do the drill for casting, it honks right in the middle and stops recording because I was doing the drill instead of a full swing. What’s the point of the drill practice mode?

Awful

Won’t connect after changing phones and not playing golf for a while. Impossible to access account after changing phones. Raised a ticket and just been ignored. Awful for the price it cost.

Appalling profit and worse service

I have owned this for 9 months - it head worked once and since then won’t connect. I have messaged and emailed customers support incessantly and have not one response.

Continually adding new features

Adding more features and better drills.
Definitely have a better understanding of the golf swing

This Takes Away all the Guessing

No matter how long I tried, the golf swing happens too fast for me to understand what’s going on and what I need to change with my swing. I’ve bought more golf training aides than I can count, including a $2000 launch monitor - this device has by far been the best for me. It tells me the brutal truth about my swing, then gives lots of easy to understand tutorials and drills to help me improve. The other thing I love is the HackMotion team continues make updates to the app to provide more useful data and features. This device and the app are a must if you’re serious about improving your golf game, even if you’re getting lessons.

New App = less swings captured

I’ve had the hack motion now for about a year and have now gone through two or three app updates. It seems to me every time I experience an app I see less and less swings being captured.

Response from developer

Hi - since end of 2025 we have launched a completely reworked full swing detection system. If you're still having issues with detection, please reach out to our support team so that we can investigate further.

Has really helped my short game and driver

If you have this impact position, you can have any kind of swing. They really are correct about this. For most people if they just learn, learned how to hit shots 70 yards and end with this wrist impact position, they would shave a lot of strokes off their game.

It’s really worth it

It really makes you take the time to do drills, eliminate your bad habits with instant feedback. Could use some tweaks here and there but I absolutely love it so far

Remarkable transformation!!

Guided Practice identifies areas in need of attention. The Drills provide the solutions and the feedback helps you understand what to do and how to do it. It’s simple and it’s effective. After 1 week you will be hitting the ball better.

Initial issue

Received my hack motion plus…the first 2-3xs out it was great…then the vibration feedback feature stopped working…emailed HM repeatedly with no response…somewhat frustrated…

Worth it

I started with the core and realized I had to have the pro so I upgraded. So glad I did. It is fixed several things with my game. I was a 7.9 handicap that still struggled at times with distance. This has helped my hands and my release get where they need to be.

Very Impressed

So I’m already impressed with the hardware. It’s certainly helped me understand my swing better as I take up golf. What really has me leaving this review is the consistent app updates that get posted. Looking through the version history, you can tell the development team is committed to delivering the best software experience. Overall, to date, HackMotion is the single best investment to improving my golf game. Thank you!!

A lot to Like

If the developer ever resolves the issue with swings not being detected this device has a-lot of potential. Unfortunately right now the guided practice feature is basically useless. The drills are pretty solid but not yet perfected enough to have complete confidence in the data. They seem to be aggressively working on improvements so there is still hope.

Response from developer

Hey! So sorry to hear about your trouble with swing detection! Would you mind reaching out to us via info@hackmotion.com or in-app contact form so that we could try figuring out what's going on? The good news is that if the drills are working okay, it's unlikely a hardware related issue. This could have something to do with calibration or correct hand selection, but it's worth checking in with our support team to know for sure. Hoping to hear from you soon!

Love this device - lot of data tho

I am bad at golf. I’ve been playing for 60 yrs and a great round for me is bogey golf. I started without lessons and back in that day books were the only instruction. This device in the hands of a skilled instructor would have completely changed the trajectory of my game. That said this device will rain on you with numbers and graphs that can easily confuse and overwhelm. Also keep in mind, wrist angle changes are a big change for a lot of golfers which can and probably will make you play worse on the course until you also change the compensations you’ve been making for a bad swing with bad wrist positions. Think of it as an X-ray. It is a diagnostic tool for your swing a skilled technician can help you remedy. Devices like this and pressure plates have made learning golf so much easier. I just wish it was easier to forget the swing I have built over the years. No subscription is awesome!! Support has been great, very responsive and very engaged in making the device a more effective way to get better at golf!!! Great product.
