Q: Why are golfers using HiSpeed golf technology?
A: Most Pro's and a lot of top amateurs agree that practice based around accurate data massively increases the ability to shoot lower scores.
it is agreed that specific practice is essential as it is human nature in golf to practice your good shots and not address your weak points within your game, but the individuals that do often have the ability and discipline to document their shot statistic data regarding carry distance, overall distance on each club in a variant of conditions in course play and practice.
This can be a laborious task, but the percentage game is based around this principle and at Global Play Golf we deliver exactly that.
For example, you have a 160 yard par 3 carry over water and on a good day you can carry your 7 iron 163 yards but your statistical average shows you hit your 7 iron 156 yards. The dilemma is do you hit a 6 iron swing with your normal swing and par the hole or hope it's your lucky day and rip a 7 iron? Chances are you will leave with a double bogey by not clearing the hazard - does this sound familiar?
The key to this lies in accurate statistic data and knowing your limits with your equipment in the conditions presented to you. This will prove to you that you can repeat the shots with confidence and belief will follow.
Logical Progressive Practice with consistent data is the answer and this can be achieved at new level with Global Play Golf's HiSpeed Golf analysis in all modes of Course Play, Challenges or Driving Range mode all of which have been designed to provide on demand analysis with world leading accuracy.
The practice system refines the accuracy of your practice as well as making the experience enjoyable or if you wish to play the many different Challenges or Course Play it is fun for all levels of golfers not just the elite.
