Your range session, coached ball by ball. Set your phone down behind you and start swinging. SwingPal captures each swing and turns the whole set into one clear coaching story—no tapping between shots. HANDS-FREE RANGE SESSIONS Choose a set size, place the phone down the line, and hit. SwingPal watches for each swing and keeps the session moving. ONE CLEAR PRIORITY See the pattern that repeated across your set and the one thing to work on next. Coaching is written in plain language, with a practical feel or drill. KEEP WHAT IS WORKING SwingPal also calls out the positions and movements that held up, so practice does not become a list of faults. HONEST MEASUREMENT Every checkpoint can be measured, observed, or withheld. When the camera could not see enough to judge a check, SwingPal says so instead of guessing. CLUB PATH, WHEN CONDITIONS ALLOW SwingPal can draw a three-color club line through the backswing, downswing, and follow-through. It works best from a down-the-line angle with the full club in frame, even light, and a clear background. When conditions are not clear enough, the trace is withheld. REVIEW THE EVIDENCE Scrub your swing, step frame by frame, jump between phases, inspect tempo, and see the readings behind the coaching. TRACK THE PATTERN Sessions stay grouped together so you can see your recurring priority, strongest movement, and recent work over time. FREE TO START Your first session is free. After that, practice with 15 balls each week for free, or go Pro for unlimited coaching.
