4d has just been released. We have one at our facility but the guy who owns it took it to Europe for 2 weeks following getting it so I haven't had time to mess with it. It is an inertial sensor system and runs over Bluetooth. Just like any 3D system there are positives and minuses. I think myswing makes more sense from a sample rate and cost structure perspective.

I'd LOVE one of these I really would, but price is still too much for 2-3 sensors. Even 1 i'm not sure i'd be able to warrant the price of.

 

No idea why we don't have more of this technology in the marketplace.

I emailed them, it is possible to demo 6 sensors for $50/2 weeks or $100/1 month, and they'll subtract it if you buy. Not bad I think.

If you are a teacher, fine. If you are a student wanting to use it to improve, good luck. Lots of data that very few instructors even understand.

 

Not a knock on 4D, just stating how difficult 3D can be if you don’t have someone breaking it down for you.

 

It's a reasonable point. I was really interested in 4D given the price point, but I have hesitancy, for two reasons...

 

1) To your point, you really need to know what you're doing. You either invest in the training or take a real risk. I found the K-vest breakdowns fairly user-friendly and ready to understand, esp. with the TPI software. The wireframes with 4D just accompanied by a boat load of numbers is a little more intimidating

 

2) It took me a lot of googling to find a real phone number for a real person who works there. Even then Onjust got voicemail... I'd be hesitant to see how support works with such an outfit.

 

It's like sim sensors... when somebody cracks the tech and the support at a reasonable price point, they'll have my money and many others'

Would there be value in grouping your swings by end result (straight, straight-to-fade, push-fade, etc), inputting all the numbers in a spreadsheet, and find trends? Like address you take all the numbers, then various other points during the swing. Or is there just waaay too many numbers to sort through? I am curious how consistent the numbers are given the end result of a shot.

Does 4d generate more accurate data than myswing.

 

No way to really tell honestly. I worked for MySwing for a while so I’m partial to them.

 

They *should* give very similar numbers.

 

If you want to use more than 4-5 sensors and/or capture the full body, it’s a no brainer... MySwing.

 

If you want to use one sensor every time and just look at one segment, then 4D might be the better option.

Lots of Callaway Stuff
