Best Phone Setup to Record Your Golf Swing for Better Feedback

Good golf video is not complicated, but bad setup makes the footage almost useless. If your angle changes every session or the camera is too low, too high, or too close, you will misread what the swing is doing.

Shot AIRecord from a repeatable angle so your comparisons actually mean something.

Use a tripod, not a bag or bench

The biggest upgrade is consistency. A tripod lets you repeat the same angle every session and compare changes properly. Without that, it is hard to tell whether the swing changed or the camera did.

The two most useful angles

• Down-the-line: camera roughly hand height and aligned with the hands
• Face-on: camera square to the target line and centered on the body

Keep distance repeatable

Do not set the phone so close that the club disappears or so far that details vanish. Mark the tripod spot if you practice in the same place often. Repeatability is the point.

Lighting and frame rate

Good lighting makes analysis easier. Higher frame rates help if your phone supports them, but a stable, well-framed clip is more important than chasing perfect slow motion.

Where Shot AI fits

Once the camera setup is repeatable, Shot AI can do its job better. Better footage means cleaner review, more meaningful comparisons, and fewer false conclusions from a bad angle.

Better capture

Start with a repeatable recording setup

Use a stable angle, keep the framing consistent, and then review the swing with the same visual reference every time.
