Recording and uploading a swing is quick and straightforward with Elevate
Golf. A smartphone and a clear space are enough. It is often easiest for a
friend to film on the course (the truest version of a swing) but self-recording
works well too. Place the camera so it captures the full movement, either
face-on (from the side) or down-the-line (from behind), and keep the view
steady and well-lit. A tripod or phone clip is recommended; there is no need
for expensive equipment. For extra tips, see [
Best
Practices for Clear Videos].
Videos can be uploaded in two ways: recorded in-app or selected from
pre-recorded clips. Each swing video must be
no
longer than 20 seconds. This respects a Coach’s time; the goal
is simply to see the swing. Any additional context (for example, driving
straighter, improving putting, gaining consistency) should be added in the text
box so the Coach can shape the response precisely. If filming is not possible
right now, see
Submitting Without a Video.
The upload process is designed to be fast and reliable, with built-in checks
to confirm that the video is ready for review. Within a few taps, the request
is sent to the selected Coach, and personal guidance is on its way. Every video
is stored securely and used only to provide the requested Tip - see the
Privacy Policy and
