Technology

The facility at World Golf Village has recently been renovated and updated with the latest technology and equipment to assist and accelerate the learning process. The 2,700 square foot facility has 2 indoor hitting bays and features latest in technology:

  • Swings are filmed from 2 camera angles in  high speed using V1 Pro software to analyze, compare, and improve fundamental positions and motion. Lesson videos are sent electronically and can be viewed and stored on your computer or mobile device.
  • Trackman and FlightScope launch monitors are tracking devices that provides 3D data to assess what is occurring with the club and ball flight. This is unparalleled for being able to measure and track changes and adjustments to swing plane, club path, club face, spin rate, launch angle, distance, etc. And it’s the most accurate way to fit golfers for clubs..
  • The BodiTrak Mat is used to capture and measure foot pressure and ground forces in the swing. This is a valuable tool to analyze dynamic balance and weight movement in the swing.
  • Our indoor putting lab features high speed video and the SAM Putt system for analyzing your stroke characteristics.
  • The short game area features 3 green complexes to work on various shots in the rough, bunker, chipping, wedge play, and putting.
