The TruSwing sensor attaches to your golf club just below the grip and will keep track of a lot of your swing stats like club speed, shaft lean, and swing path. It&#039;s probably not the best device for beginner golfers because they won&#039;t know what a lot of the numbers mean. If you&#039;re more advanced and know what the data means and how to use it to fix your game, the TruSwing could be a great product for you. Share this video: https:\/\/youtu.be\/MrzBUFEd_uo Welcome to Out Of Bounds Golf. My name is Jon and I&#039;m just an average golfer making videos on the internet. What you&#039;ll see here are videos on different golf products and we&#039;ll be trying to figure out what works the best for the average hacker. We&#039;ll be doing product reviews, comparisons between two similar products, the best gear for different types of players, and maybe we&#039;ll just play a round of golf. I&#039;ve been playing golf on and off for a number of years now but have become a lot more consistent over the past couple of seasons. Not long ago I was shooting somewhere around 100 and playing &quot;out of bounds&quot; golf way too often. I&#039;ve consistently broken 90 now and am working on breaking the 80 mark. My best round to date was 84 on a par 72 and my best 9 holes were 4 over.

class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Garmin TruSwing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a&nbsp;<strong>club<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>sensor<\/strong>&nbsp;that attaches just below your grip and will send your club data to your&nbsp;<strong>phone<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>tablet<\/strong>, or&nbsp;<strong>GPS<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll be able to see your&nbsp;<strong>swing<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>metrics<\/strong>, 3D animations, swing speed\/tempo, club path, shaft angle, and a few other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It only comes with 1 sensor so if you want to track all your clubs you\u2019d either need to buy multiple (expensive) or swap it after each shot (a hassle).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Does Garmin TruSwing Do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you attach the sensor to your grip and download the app, all you have to do after that is&nbsp;<strong>select the club<\/strong>&nbsp;in the app and&nbsp;<strong>take a swing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you take your swing, the data will transfer to the app and you\u2019ll see a&nbsp;<strong>3D image<\/strong>&nbsp;of your swing path,&nbsp;<strong>clubhead speed<\/strong>, tempo, club path at impact, and you can compare 2 different swings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I didn\u2019t like though is that most golfers would have no idea&nbsp;<strong>what most of the numbers mean<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a demo video:<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube\"><div class=\"lyte-wrapper\"

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Was It Easy To Use?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to setting everything up and getting started, the TruSwing is&nbsp;<strong>very<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>simple<\/strong>&nbsp;to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you have to do is attach it to your club, download the app, select your club, and take a swing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing that was a little bit tricky was&nbsp;<strong>understanding<\/strong>&nbsp;what a lot of the data in the app means (what\u2019s good shaft lean, etc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing that was a bit frustrating to do was&nbsp;<strong>to swap the sensor<\/strong>&nbsp;from one club to another after each shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Accurate Was It?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the data the TruSwing gives, it was actually a bit&nbsp;<strong>more<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>accurate<\/strong>&nbsp;than I first thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn\u2019t perfect by any means but the data was fairly close to when I was at the&nbsp;<strong>Golftec&nbsp;<\/strong>center (as long as the sensor is aligned properly).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, the info probably&nbsp;<strong>isn\u2019t that helpful<\/strong>&nbsp;for the average golfer since they won\u2019t know what the numbers mean (there isn\u2019t much help in the app).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Garmin TruSwing
