FEATURES & BENEFITS

The Swing Speed Radar

®

with Tempo Timer is a small, inexpensive
microwave Doppler radar velocity sensor that provides the swing
speed and tempo rhythm for golfers of all ages and skill levels. It
assists players in developing/optimizing their swing by measuring
ACTUAL TEMPO TIME from club takeaway to ball impact at the climax
of their forward swing, as well as the SWING SPEED of the clubhead
as it approaches the ball. The Swing Speed Radar

®

with Tempo Timer,
featuring simple one-button operation, provides unmatched utility in a
single, affordable device.

Clubhead speed and tempo are two significant characteristics of a
golfer’s swing that must be optimized and controlled if the golfer is
to consistently achieve his/her best ball-striking results. Expensive
launch monitors costing thousands of dollars, primarily used by
well-funded clubmakers, instructors, or pro golfers, generally include
these two vital parameters in their measurement systems. However,
less expensive devices for use by most instructors, clubmakers, and
by the golfing public are limited in utility. Prior swing speed meters
can be inconsistent, unreliable, and complicated to use. Some even
require attachments to the club that can change the club swing
dynamics. Metronome-type devices can provide tempo time models
for the golfer to try to emulate, but the resulting tempo time can only
be estimated by comparisons with the model.

Inexpensively priced, the Swing Speed Radar

®

with Tempo Timer is
the practical choice of clubmakers and instructors who want the
flexibility and convenience of use in the field as well as at their home­based hitting stations. It can be used by golfers of all ages and skill
levels, at home or at their practice facilities, as they strive to optimize
their swing mechanics and rhythm for their best distance, control,
consistency and accuracy.
