Checkpoint: Takeaway
Jun 26, 2025
In golf, the takeaway is the critical starting motion that sets the rhythm and path of your swing. If the initial movement is unstable, it can affect the entire swing sequence. That’s why a steady takeaway is essential. For this section, our AI trainer has 4 checkpoints available, all of which are cruical to your swing:
Lack of wrist hinge
The wrist is not hinged enough or hinged too late during the takeaway.
Early wrist hinge
The wrist is hinged too early during the takeaway.
Club path inside
The club path is moved inside compared to the shaft plane at the set up.
Club path outside
The club path is moved outside compared to the shaft plane at the set up.
Paying close attention to these ares during your takeaway is vital when looking to perfect your swing. Through the use of both our golf simulator and AI trainer, taking note of the areas you need to improve on has never been easier. It's important to note that while you can of course use the AI trainer feature with any club, currently the driver and 7-iron have integrated modes available. What this means is that the AI Trainer’s evaluation criteria may vary depending on the selected club type during the session. As we improve and update our AI Trainer, more features will be available to use to help you achieve more satisfying and confident swings. Check in periodically on these pages for any new features available through the AI trainer. We appreciate your continued interest and support!
