1. Set up the camera

• Down the line: behind you, on your target line, at about hip height.
• Face on: in front of you, square to your chest, at about hip height.
• Use a tripod or a friend. Keep your whole body and the ball in frame from address to finish.
• Film in landscape, with the sun behind the camera if you can.

2. Film the right shots

1. Driver
2. Fairway wood or hybrid
3. Long, mid and short iron
4. Wedges
5. Chips, a pitch, a bunker shot and a few putts

Film each one from both angles. Take a few swings of each and keep the best.

3. Build the reel

Add your clips to NetSnap Golf, pick the club and angle for each, and add your name, grad year and scores for the intro card. It finds and trims each swing, adds the labels, and traces the club path and ball flight.

4. Keep it tight

Roughly 1 to 5 minutes, best swings first, at real speed. Then send it to coaches with a short email that includes your scoring average, ranking and tournament schedule.

Questions

Is NetSnap Golf free?

Yes. Make and save as many swing reels as you like. No card and no sign-up.

Do my videos get uploaded?

No. The swing is analysed and the reel is built in your browser, on your own phone or computer. Your clips never leave your device.

How long should a golf recruiting video be?

Roughly 1 to 5 minutes. Show each club from two angles, at real speed, and put your best swings first.

Which angles do coaches want?

Down the line (camera behind you, looking at the target) and face on (camera in front of you, square to your chest). Film both for each club.

How long does it take?

Usually a few minutes per swing. Older phones take longer, so keep the page open until your reel is ready.
