ABOUT GOLF FOR A CAUSE Welcome to “Goal Achiever Golf for a Cause,” a platform where the love of golf and the spirit of giving unite to create an impactful legacy. Our journey began with a deeply personal story: inspired by the founder’s niece, Terri Large, who bravely battled cancer until her untimely loss at the age of 18 on Thanksgiving Day 2011. Her courage and spirit continue to inspire our mission. OUR MISSION Driven by Terri’s memory, our mission is to transform the passion for golf into a powerful force for good. We believe every swing, putt, and round goes beyond the game, contributing to a greater cause. Through our app and community events, we aim to support cancer awareness and nurture the growth of youth golf. JOIN OUR CAUSE Golf for a Cause” invites golfers at all levels to join a community that not only celebrates the game but also embraces the power of giving. In memory of Terri and in honor of all those affected by cancer, we commit to making every stroke a step towards a better world. Our platform is more than just a name – it’s a tribute, a journey, and an invitation to make a difference, one swing at a time.

Turn an iPhone video into a clear, focused golf-practice plan. Swing Coach records or imports your swing, detects your body position on device, and lets you study the motion with a synchronized pose overlay. It identifies key swing moments, measures a small set of repeatable movements, and ranks the next adjustment to focus on. CAPTURE YOUR SWING • Record with the rear or front camera • Request high-frame-rate capture when your iPhone supports it • Import standard or Slo-mo videos with the system Photos picker • Use live framing guidance to keep your body visible REVIEW THE MOTION • Scrub playback at ¼×, ½×, or full speed • Jump to address, top, impact zone, and finish • View a synchronized body-pose overlay • Compare a swing with a personal baseline PRACTICE WITH ONE CLEAR FOCUS • See shoulder tilt, hip movement, trail-elbow bend, tempo, and tracking quality • Get one ranked next-swing focus instead of a wall of numbers • Preview a constrained pose adjustment before practicing it • Export a coaching visualization to share LEARN FROM YOUR OWN SWINGS • Save swing history and tag contact and direction • Build club- and camera-specific personal baselines • Unlock conservative personal target ranges after enough matching successful swings • View a local shot-direction tendency after enough comparable labeled swings PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your videos, pose results, tags, and personal models stay on your iPhone. Swing Coach has no account, advertising, analytics, or developer-operated server. Nothing is shared unless you choose the system Share button. Swing Coach uses two-dimensional camera estimates. Results depend on framing, lighting, clothing, camera angle, and device capability. Coaching suggestions are informational practice aids, not medical advice or a substitute for a qualified golf professional. The ball-path view is a personal pattern estimate, not a launch monitor and not a prediction of carry, curve, or landing position.
