TRONDHEIM, NORWAY – Swing Catalyst, the complete swing analysis system used by instructors, coaches and golfers around the world, was recently installed by Golf Digest Top 50 Instructor Kevin Weeks at his renowned teaching facility located at Cog Hill Golf & Country Club in Lemont, Ill.
Weeks specifically installed Swing Catalyst’s 3D Motion Plate, as he was wowed by its capabilities. “This is amazing technology that measures parts of the swing in ways video cannot” says Weeks, a three-time Illinois PGA Instructor of the Year. “The integration of video, 3D Motion Plate and ball flight analysis will make lessons more focused and speed up the learning process of my students”
The Swing Catalyst 3D Motion Plate is Swing Catalyst’s flagship swing analysis system, offering all the same data as the company’s basic Balance Plate, but with horizontal/vertical force- and torque measurements, as well. Based on these measurements, the system calculates the amount of rotational force generated, and how well the golfer times this force relative to impact. All 3D Motion Plate data is perfectly synchronized with the video images and the data from a ball/club tracking device.
“Having our system in place at a facility like Kevin Weeks Golf Instruction truly helps validate the capability and integrity of our products,” says Tom Christian, Marketing Manager for Swing Catalyst. “Kevin’s among the top instructors in America, if not the world, and it’s flattering to know he’s relying on our equipment to help him better perform his job.”
