Ping Golf Iphone 4 Putting Cradle
(iPhone Not included!). Please download app FREE from iTunes
As the worlds leading Putter Manufacturer Ping have now developed
iPing Apps to help you analize your putting stroke. This iCradle is the
holder which clips onto any putter which holds your iPhone 4 in Place so
the Technology in your iPhone iPing App can analize you putting stroke.
The iPING app analyzes and displays a golfer’s consistency onscreen using three criteria:
- STROKE TYPE: Stroke type is the classification of a player's closing
angle, the amount of rotation of the putter face during the forward
stroke. PING’s research found that golfers can be categorized as one of
three stroke types: Straight, Slight Arc, or Strong Arc, measured in
degrees of face rotation. (Straight has very little or no rotation;
Strong Arc has the most.) The research shows that players tend to be
most consistent with a balance of putter that matches their stroke type.
Face-balanced putters work best for Straight strokes while toe-down
putters are most effective for a Strong Arc.
- IMPACT ANGLE: Impact angle is the putter's face angle at impact,
relative to address, measured in degrees. PING’s data shows that even
the best players in the world do not necessarily have a 0 impact angle
average, but all are highly consistent.
- TEMPO: Tempo is a measure of the duration of the backswing relative
to the forward swing and is expressed in a ratio: 2 to 1, for example.
The average tempo will vary among players, but the best putters have
extremely high consistency in tempo.
- MEASURE MODE: In Measure mode, the golfer hits five putts and their
stroke type, impact angle and tempo are displayed for every putt in that
session and stored. The iPING app calculates a consistency score, and
then averages the scores over time to build a Putting Handicap (PHcp).
As the player improves their consistency, they’ll watch their PHcp come
down.
- PRACTICE MODE: In Practice mode, the user can isolate one aspect of
their putting that’s lacking in consistency – tempo, for example – for
extra attention. Stroke type, impact angle, and tempo are displayed for
individual putts.
- COMPARE MODE: In Compare mode the player can compare their results
with previous sessions or with those of their friends. They can even do
side-by-side comparisons with several PING tour pros, whose results are
pre-loaded into the iPING app.
