Perfect Your Golf Swing with SwingTIP {Giveaway}
Is the dad in your life a golfer? I bet he’d love to improve his game, and I have just the tool to help him do that. SwingTIP is a mobile golf swing coach that is designed to help both those new to the sport and those with some experience who want to refine their technique. The small, lightweight Bluetooth device attaches right to your golf club and sends information about your swing to an app on your smartphone or tablet.
Using SwingTIP is fairly simple. Attach the unit, install the Apple iOS and Android compatible app, and you’re on your way. Get a ball ready and start swinging! Yes, you will need to use an actual ball for this to work. 
I tried using this in my backyard without a ball and quickly discovered that my swings weren’t registering. Then I thought I would give it a try with a real ball. SwingTIP worked a lot better, but on my third swing, my ball landed in the neighbor’s pool, and I realized maybe the backyard wasn’t the best place to practice. But I promise that once you find a good location, it’s easy to use! In just seconds, your swing will be analyzed and reproduced in 3D animation so you can see exactly what’s going on.
The app will show you all kinds of helpful performance metrics including speed, swing path, impact zone, club face angle, and tempo. If you have an iOS device, you’ll have access to even more features with their new (and still free) ProView app. With ProView, all the features of the regular app are available, but it also has a video capture, for golfers to capture live video of their actual swing to better examine body posture and alignment, and 3D power and plane analysis. Have an Android device? Don’t worry; ProView will be available for you very soon.
All of the helpful information that SwingTIP has to offer is viewable from your device, but you can also sync it to your MySwingTip.com account so you can track your performance. As if all of that weren’t enough, you also get instructional tips and videos from golf professionals. With SwingTIP, you’ll learn all there is to know about your swing including what is wrong with it and how you can fix it. It’s like having your own personal golf coach but at a much better price!

My husband loves to golf, but with our hectic schedule he doesn’t get to do it nearly as often as he’d like. So when I brought up trying the SwingTIP, I didn’t have to ask twice; he was thrilled to have an excuse to bring out the golf clubs. He’s not a terrible golfer, but he’s never had any formal lessons and his fellow golfers frequently try to help him correct his swing when they’re out. With SwingTIP, he’s been able to practice and improve on his own, so next time he golfs with his buddies, he can surprise them with his great swing!
This is some fun, hi-tech stuff, and I’m sure Dad would be very impressed if he got one of these for Father’s Day! My husband has been having a lot of fun with his, and I think any golfer would feel the same way. Visit SwingTIP.com to learn more about this useful gadget.
