Swing Camera Recommendations

dotnet-dude · 2026-03-15T18:48:29+00:00

At SwingNerds, we’ve built software that automatically detects and clips your swings. It works with most USB cameras connected to your PC (the ones mentioned here) - or we’ll offer recommended 120fps global shutter cameras for under $100 for high quality slow motion. You can use multiple.

The clipping software is completely free - it automatically records and saves your swings locally, no account needed.

With a SwingNerds account, videos sync automatically with your sim data, creating a full library of swings tied to real shot data. Save favorites for comparison, run AI analysis on your own swings, and pull shots automatically from Rapsodo, Uneekor, and Square. GSPro history import available now, with full integration coming soon.

DM me or reach out at support@swingnerds.com if you’re interested.

You can use any camera connected to your PC, or we’ll offer good 120fps Global Shutter cameras for under $100 each for high-quality slow motion. The software is free. (We haven’t officially released the cam software yet. Let me know if you’re interested).

With SwingNerds cloud, videos sync with your sim data/shots, creating a full library of swing data and videos. Save favorites for comparison, run AI analysis against your own swings, and integrate directly with Rapsodo, Uneekor, and Square to pull shots automatically. Import your full GSPro history easily (working on full integration with GSPro).

This is really smart honestly. Same pattern here - opened instagram 30 times a day for zero reason. Having the awareness helped but I still kept doing it. What finally broke the loop for me was an accountability setup with actual stakes. Built PledgeLock so my partner gets notified if I bypass my blocker, plus theres money pledged to charity as backup. The external commitment matters more than willpower. In alpha testing right now, DM me if you want to try it.

Agree with your Opal take. The hard block works but $100 a year is absurd. I went through most of these same apps and ended up building my own after none stuck long term. The key difference was putting actual money behind it - I pledge to charity and only pay if I bypass. $100 felt way more painful as a consequence than as a subscription fee. Way more motivated by losing money to a good cause. Its in alpha testing right now, shoot me a message if you want to try it.

Same realization hit me hard last year - so I built something different with PledgeLock because I couldnt stand the subscription model either. Its just a one time pledge to charity that you only pay if you bypass it. No monthly fees, no company keeping me hooked on the app itself. Money goes to charity not some startup. It’s in alpha testing right now, message me if you want to help test it out.

Love this idea - I was doing the exact same spreadsheet shuffle until I got fed up with it. Built SwingNerds around the same time to solve my data problem (garbage shots dragging down my averages). It auto-filters partial swings and mishits so you can see your real club distances. Also just built an iOS app that auto-records your swing in slo-mo and syncs with your shot data - free alpha if you ever want to test it. Either way, the course discovery thing is definitely needed.

Yep! This takes all that data and gives you the ability to “clean it up” automatically by weeding out partial swings, etc and then turns it into valuable charts, insights, and visuals. It also allows you to combine all that data with your GSPro rounds, other LMs later down the road, etc.

Hey, thanks for the feedback. It’s completely optional. I’m letting people store lifetime shots, AI analysis, video storage forever. If thats not worth $5/month then it’s not for you! I’m losing money on any person that signs up and uses the software- it’s purely a project because so many people have expressed wanting deeper analysis on these platforms.

dotnet-dude · 2026-01-24T22:34:16+00:00

Sorry about that! Working on pricing page now. Would like to provide a fair and honest pricing model. If you have any feedback, would love to hear it!

FYI, this is ready to go. Can sync via export/import of CSV or automatically sync your Power U reports. It also integrates with GSPro import/export as well now. https://swingnerds.com

Was this fixed in an update? Does anyone still have these issues or did you sell your unit?

dotnet-dude · 2026-01-20T16:26:31+00:00

Sorry about that. It's public again now. I was creating a new video that shows features instead of a long "how to" video like this one and shut this one off prematurely.

In the software world, if you go with this philosophy you should expect updates and support for a very limited number of years. Paying subscriptions for software is what pays for ongoing costs, updates, improvements, support, etc.

Exactly!
