Golf swing analysis from your phone
Fix one thing this winter.
Film a few golf swings on your phone. Swingframe follows your body through each one, finds the biggest swing fault, and gives you a four-week plan of short golf drills you can do at home, in a net or at the range.

Three steps, about ten minutes, and nothing to install.

Film two or three swings
Face-on or down the line, with your whole body in the frame. One angle is enough to start.

See it tracked
Swingframe follows your body frame by frame and finds the top of your backswing and impact for you.

Follow a short block
One main fix, the measurements behind it, and three short sessions a week for four weeks.
What Swingframe checks
Nine common golf swing faults, measured from the positions of your body and hands. Some need a face-on clip and some need a down-the-line clip, so filming both angles gives the fullest report.
Early extension
Your hips move toward the ball in the downswing and you stand up through impact. A common cause of pushes, hooks, thin shots and shanks.
Down the linePosture
Whether you keep the forward bend you set at address, or stand up or dip as you swing down.
Down the lineSway
Your hips slide away from the target in the backswing instead of turning, which moves the low point of the swing.
Face-onWeight shift
Whether your hips move toward the target by impact, or you hang back on your trail foot and hit fat or thin shots.
Face-onHead movement
How far your head drifts from address to impact. Some movement is normal; a lot makes contact inconsistent.
Either angleLead arm at the top
How much your lead arm folds at the top of the backswing, which shortens the arc of your swing.
Face-onShoulder turn
An estimate of how far your shoulders turn at the top. A short turn costs distance and often leads to an over-the-top swing.
Either angleTempo
The ratio of backswing time to downswing time. Many good players swing back about three times as long as they swing down.
Either angleOver the top
Whether your hands move out toward the ball at the start of the downswing, the most common cause of a slice. Measured from your hands, not the club.
Down the line
Free · about ten minutes · videos stay on your phone
Analyse a swing
Pick your hand and the camera angle, then choose one to five clips of your swing. The first run downloads the tracking model, which can take a moment.
Face-on (filmed from in front of you) shows sway, weight shift and the lead arm. Down the line (filmed from behind, looking at the target) shows posture, hip depth and your hand path. Keep your whole body in frame, hold the phone steady at hip height, and use the normal camera, not the mirrored selfie view.
Choose at least one clip to begin.
Your swing, frame by frame
Swingframe found the start, the top of your backswing and impact in each swing. Step through the frames to see the tracking behind every measurement. The line traces your hands: blue on the way up, white on the way down.

Questions
How does Swingframe analyse my golf swing?
It runs a body-tracking model in your browser that finds your joints in every frame of the video. From those positions it measures things like hip depth, sway, head movement and tempo at address, the top of the backswing and impact, then compares them with ranges that most good players fall within. The biggest fault becomes your priority, with a four-week drill plan to fix it.
Are my swing videos uploaded?
No. The video is analysed by your own browser and never leaves your device. If you ask for your plan by email, only your email address and the measurements are sent, never the video.
Which camera angle should I film from?
Face-on (in front of you, level with your chest) shows sway, weight shift and the lead arm. Down the line (behind you, looking toward the target) shows posture and early extension. One angle is enough to start; both give the fullest report. Keep your whole body in the frame and hold the phone steady at about hip height.
How many swings should I film?
One to five swings from the same angle, each clip under 25 seconds. Three or more give a more reliable read, because Swingframe only flags a fault that shows up in most of your swings.
Is Swingframe free?
Your first four-week block is free, with the full report, the drills and the plan as a PDF or by email. After that, Swingframe Plus costs £15 a month and gives you unlimited swing analyses that track your progress over time.
What do I get with Swingframe Plus?
Unlimited swing analyses, with every measurement tracked over time so you can see your faults improving block after block. Each time you fix one thing, Swingframe moves you on to the next with a new four-week block. Your videos are still analysed on your device and never uploaded; only the measurements are saved.
Which club should I use?
Any full swing works. Most people use a mid iron such as a 7-iron. Swingframe measures your body, not the club or the ball, so it cannot see clubface angle, swing path or ball flight.
Does it work for left-handed golfers?
Yes. Choose left-handed before you analyse, and Swingframe measures your lead and trail sides the right way round. The drills talk about lead and trail rather than left and right, so they work for either hand.
Does it replace a golf lesson?
No. It is a practice tool that points you at one thing to work on between lessons. A PGA professional watching you in person can see far more, and the ranges and drills are still being reviewed by one.
