"SwingReader" Iphone App
I downloaded the "SwingReader" app for my Iphone some time ago (in the videos I've got it's sunny, so that shows JUST how long ago it was!) and haven't used it much since, despite it being a good looking app.
Anyway, they've just made a MASSIVE update to it, which makes it a whole load better, so I'd like to start using it a little bit more.
I'm just a little stumped as to where I should be drawing lines on my body with it and what I should be looking for in the swing. I get that a circle around my napper shows head movement and that should be minimal, but the rest is lost on me!
Does anyone else use this app or similar? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

I can't really comment on the lines but a Golfshake member developed a similar app called SwingPlane.

I use a similar app called V1. You can do all manor of things but when using it view the swing from behind you only really need 2 lines.
You should be looking to achieve the following in the swing.
The best way to see what should happen is to film a pro swing off youtube or the TV and see what they do. You will notice they all have very different swings, but they all do the above things. Then pick a pro who's swing mirrors yours the most and try and get your planes to match there's.
If you want to see how it really should be done try analysing Alex Noren or Charles Howell III swings as they are as good and as corract as it gets. Don't look at someone like Westwoods as he does do a few things wrong that if copied would hamper us mere mortals.

Thanks for both your replies, that's great!
Gary, I read your post and didn't have a clue what you meant ... got the app out and went through it step-by-step and it made perfect sense! Ha ha! Thanks a lot!
