JAPANESE Golf launch monitor app for iPhone... That WORKS!?

Спорт

Could this be the best kept secret in golf. I test and try the golf boy app, to see if it is an affordable launch monitor app for your iPhone, that works!

    Hello, Simon Sorry for the very late comment. I am the developer of Golfboy. Thank you for taking the time to review Golfboy. We are very excited to see your very enjoyable video. Golfboy was originally developed for use at outdoor and indoor driving ranges. Therefore, this is the first time we have seen Golfboy in use on a golf course. (I am relieved to hear that Golfboy seems to be working well). Golfboy was exhibited from Japan at the PGA Show last January. Since then, we have accelerated the development of the application. Golfboy is still in the process of development. We are currently working on even bigger enhancements, such as measuring rotation speeds, a report function for each club, and a global competition function. Although there is a disadvantage of requiring a tripod, we are working daily to develop this product so that it will contribute to the improvement of many more golfers. If you have any questions, concerns, or complaints Please feel free to contact us.

Since there are still some features we would like to expand in the iOS version in the future, we will probably focus on iOS development this year and the first half of next year. Once development settles down, we plan to consider Android, but at this time, we have not yet decided on the timing of development.

    The track man or gcquad app is probably coming soon, the combination of better iPhone cameras with higher fps video rates means that it’s only a matter of time before these apps are 90 to 95% of the way there, especially for ball speed and swing speed which can be measured with high fps, interesting to see this head to head with an expensive launch 🚀 monitor like a quad, Rick S did a similar video before

That being said the carry distance (313yds) looks about perfect for 121mph club head speed. Definitely looks like the best phone app yet. ShotVision is improving all the time but can’t cope with higher swing speeds yet.
