Measuring the swing
 
I am curious regarding more exact measurement of the swing. Yes, there are launch monitors, but that's not what I am after.

I guess someone - somehow - has performed a much more detailed measurement of the swing path. I.e. in order to produce a more complete report on the exaxt path the shaft and clubhead is travelling during the swing. The report would pretty much be a 3D plot with indication of position, speed, rotation and acceleration.

How did they go about it? Any references? I guess Callaway, Acushnet & others have something - but what?

Did they use laser, high-speed cameras or just what?

Maybe there is some kind of device or setup on the market already? Something you can just buy, install & start swinging. That also produces a report on your performance.

Let me know.

Thanks

Not everything you want but the P3 Pro Swing Analysis is an at home device that measures ball speed, path, face angle, etc.

You may be be interested in the Smartswing. I just came back from a fitting using the driver model and it mapped out my swing path from address to impact. It still has a few kinks in it tho since this is the first model they have put out on the market.
