PING vs Short Game2.0

The new iPING 2.0 putter app provides authorized PING club fitters and retailers a precise and easy-to-use a tool to ensure golfers experience a tour-level putter fitting from golf’s leader in custom fitting. The patented technology measures and analyzes five key performance indicators in the putting stroke; 1) closing angle; 2) impact angle; 3) tempo; 4) lie angle and 5) shaft lean. These stroke metrics, combined with detailed input from the golfer, are analyzed by a proprietary fitting algorithm which recommends the proper stroke type, length, loft, lie and weight for a PING putter. The iPING 2.0 app offers five modes: 1) Guided Fit: Club fitting professionals recommend putter specifications by considering a variety of metrics; wrist-to-floor measurements, posture, gripping style, miss tendencies, green speed and speed performance in conjunction with hitting five (5) 10 ft. putts. In this mode, putter comparisons can also be made and quantified. 2) Single Putt: Club fitting professionals recommend putter specifications by capturing three (3) 10 ft. putts. Ideal for golf shop settings and quickly classifying a player’s Stroke Type. 3) Practice session: Allows club fitting and teaching professionals to measure single-stroke metrics during a putting lesson. 4) Live Loft and Lie: Allows club fitting and teaching professionals to measure loft and lie in real-time. 5) Co-Pilot Mode: Using PING Co-Pilot on the computer, tablet, or mobile device, this mode will allow fitters to seamlessly pair iPING on iOS to PING Co-Pilot for a new and updated putter fitting experience. At this time, the iPING 2.0 app is intended for use by authorized PING retailers and club fitters only. All technical support and availability of accessories will only be available to authorized PING club fitters and retailers.

Purchase the in app subscription and obtain full access to the Short Game closed loop training system for putting and chipping. Try Short Game free for the first month. Cancel at any time and retain access to the surface level feature. Short Game uses the iPhones internal sensors to create a surface level that determines the break, aiming line and swing length for putts and chips. For chipping Short Game also provides the right club to carry the ball onto the green and roll to the hole for all lies around the green. Short Game also uses the iPhones internal gyros to create the short game scope (similar to a flight scope) that monitors key swing characteristics of your swing during practice for both putting and chipping. This requires a cradle for your iPhone that you can purchase directly from the short game app. Using the short game scope you can monitor your ball path face angle, toe angle, dynamic loft, swing length and tempo and compare against tour level performance. You can also use the short game scope to compare your swing length and ball path and compare against the required swing length and aim from the green reading feature. This will rapidly improve your performance as all variables affecting short game performance are monitored and controlled. Short Game accounts for the green speed, firmness, slope and distance. Improve your green reading by comparing your read to the Short Game read. During play use the speech recognition feature to seamlessly enter data via simple voice commands. Short Game will improve distance control, aiming, reduce 3 putting and increase your up and downs when chipping. You can set up a precise pre game warmup routine by recalling measured slopes/lies around the practice green and then monitor your the swing length, tempo and aim prior to play. Short Game is fast and easy to use with built-in tutorials for every feature. The Short Game green reading and short game scope algorithms have been confirmed using independent test equipment.
