Check Your Golf Setup in Seconds (With AI)
Stand either down the line or face-on in your golf address position in front of the app. In seconds, it will provide your golf setup and posture analysis.
We'll use your camera to check your setup.

0How to use it
- Prop your phone against a bag or a bench. Or a tripod. Chest height works best.
- Pick your club type and your handedness.
- Choose your camera angle: face-on or down the line. Press the “Check my Setup” button.
- Take your normal address position and hold it for about 3 seconds.
- Read the feedback.
Take your regular grip and stance. Do not pose. The tool reads the position you are actually playing from, so a cleaned-up version will not help you.
Pick your camera angle
You can shoot from either side, and each one shows a different part of your setup.
Down the line
The camera sits behind you, on the line the ball is meant to travel. This view shows your spine angle, your knee bend, and how your arms and hands hang. It is the better view for posture and for how far you stand from the ball.
Face-on
The camera faces you from the front. This view shows how wide your feet are, which way your body leans, and where your hands sit next to the ball.
If you have time, do both. Together, they cover almost everything a coach would look at in the first ten seconds of a lesson.
What the tool looks for from down the line
- Leaning too far forward. Your upper body has tipped past where it should be, usually because you bent from the waist instead of the hips.
- Standing too upright. Not enough tilt, so your arms have no room to swing past your body.
- Not enough knee flex. Straight legs lock your hips and make it hard to turn.
- Too much knee flex. A squat instead of an athletic bend. This one drops your whole body height mid-swing.
- Inverted arm posture. Elbows pointing the wrong way, which fights the natural fold of your arms.
- Hands too close to your body. Cramped arms leave no swing path.
- Hands too far away. Reaching for the ball pulls you off balance.
- Shaft angle. The tool distinguishes a traditional setup from a single-plane setup, so if you set up like Bryson DeChambeau on purpose, you will not be told to change it.
What the tool looks for from face on
- Leaning away from the target. Weight stuck on the back foot.
- Leaning toward the target. Weight is jammed forward before you even start.
- Stance too wide. Feels stable, but it stops your hips from turning.
- Stance too narrow. Nothing to balance against once you swing.
- Hands too far ahead of the ball. Adds shaft lean you may not want with every club.
- Hands too far back. Usually adds loft and weakens the strike.
Alignment
Your feet, hips, and shoulders should all point the same way. Most golfers aim their feet at the target and leave their shoulders pointing right of it, then wonder why the ball starts out that way. Lay a club on the ground along your toe line before you shoot the face on view. It gives the tool a clean reference and gives you something to feel.

Posture and how far to stand from the ball
Good posture is simple to build. Stand tall, bend from your hips until your chest is over your toes, then add a small knee bend. Let your arms hang straight down. Wherever your hands land is roughly where the grip should sit.
Distance from the ball follows from that. If your arms hang and you still have to reach, you are too far. If your hands are jammed into your belt, you are too close. Shorter clubs put you closer to the ball, longer clubs push you back.
Correct stance for hitting irons
Iron setup basics
- Feet about shoulder width apart
- Ball in the middle for short irons, moving forward as the club gets longer
- Weight even, or a touch on the front foot
- Hands slightly ahead of the ball
- Chest over the ball
The goal with an iron is to hit down on the ball. That comes from a stance that keeps your low point just in front of the ball, not behind it.
Driver setup in golf
Driver setup basics
- Feet wider than shoulder width
- Ball off the inside of your front heel
- More weight on the back foot
- Spine tilted slightly away from the target
- Hands level with the ball or just behind it
The driver is the one club where you are hitting the ball. That is why the lean and the ball position are different from an iron, and why the same photo can get a pass for one club and a flag for the other. Pick your club before you shoot.
Right-handed and left-handed
Both are supported. Choose your side before you take the photo so the feedback reads your lean and ball position correctly.

Common questions
Do I need a video?
No. A still shot of your address position is enough.
What should I wear?
Something fitted enough to see your body line. Baggy shirts hide spine angle.
Can I use this indoors?
Yes, as long as there is decent light and your whole body fits in frame.
Will this fix my slice?
It may help. A slice often traces back to alignment or ball position, and both show up here. It will not read your swing itself.
Is it free?
Yes.
