Does HackMotion Wrist Sensor Really Work?

[@PauloG100]

I have HM Player, bought it about a year ago. This isn't going to be a hatchet job on HM, I think it definitely has potential, but... You summed it up in one short sentence when you turned to the camera and said, “Where should I be"???? I have found myself going down some very deep rabbit holes with this device. I have talked to HM staff and had a video call with one of the tech guys, so they have been great it has to be said, but in the end, I put it aside for the past month. Your video review has got me thinking I will try it again today one more time, to see if I can make sense of it once and for all.

[@Huntgolfride]

I agree, I bought one and immediately had no idea where I should be.. I found the device software and training don't tell you that anywhere. I guess, moving toward flexion is the goal, but I couldn't even find an image of the swing graph to see what that should look like or why? Now, having said that, I was super extended at the top and impact and would have argued I was not before putting HM on and it took me few swings to get those numbers much reduced. I never would have felt what I needed to do to get my wrists in the right position without it. So, for understanding where your wrists are I really love it. I have to find the ideal positions somewhere else though which is frustrating. I wonder if the Pro model has more of that information?? Its a spendy upgrade though.. Im in Canada and its almost a thousand bucks to upgrade!!!

[@brandonkriegerKNSS]

Thanks Matt for the review. I would have loved to see how it effected the actual shot on the screen seeing where the path of the ball, potential improvement in distance...etc?

[@digitalentropy2104]

I have the hackmotion and a similar setup position, but with a pretty flat lead (left) wrist at the top. Hackmotion is prompting me to add left wrist cupping/extension to get in their range, which goes against every bit of instruction and knowledge I have ever heard around the golf swing. You want as a flat a wrist as possible, maybe even slightly flexed. I lose 20 yards and shot quality trying to make Hackmotion green at the top. Data at impact is great though.

[@3o1Golf]

i think this is one of the best things a golfer can get to work on thier swing and understand how the swing "works" with out needing the help of a PGA pro :)

[@ralphdicecca2889]

“Where should I be? What a great line

[@mek90703]

Impressive machine! Bobby Lasken always told me the toe up position when the shaft is parallel to the ground, which all us old farts were taught, was crap. He always said the face should be pointing to the ground in the first part of the swing. Your last swing in the video was a perfect demonstration of that.

[@swiper1131]

"I'm very inconsistent in my strikes" -- as the ball hits an obvious discolored part on the backdrop where it obviously has smashed into over and over.. Gotta love it 😂

[@wallstreetoneil]

Having watched you for years Matt, and knowing one of your issues is cupping at the top - this is a great product on your journey to play in a Senior Tour event

[@the_cardchasersportscards771]

The turn the screw from the long iron video has done a lot for me!!!

[@rheffner3]

Seems like pretty cool and useful technology. I will check it out as I have a serious backswing problem by not cocking my wrists enough.

[@tylerhawk742]

As a fellow cupped wrist at the top swinger I can appreciate what this device provides and 100% when I try to “turn the screw/flatten my wrist” I hit some of the purest shots possible. However none of that changes the fact for me doing so feels incredibly weak and unnatural.

[@OTOWNGOLF]

Please get together with Good Good Golf and do some content. Love the channel!

[@leonardrhode7016]

Oh i definitely need this with the simulator. My clubhead speed is mid 90's but not getting the consistency or distance all the time

[@tommcnutt2582]

Hey Matt I enjoy all of your videos. You did a pitch and chip video(s) which were great. How about you do a video on green side chipping where the ball is buried in thick grass and/or in a depression where there is thick/ tall grass around the ball. Those are the stroke killer shots where the club gets caught or slides under the ball, etc…….. Keep bringing the informative videos. Tom McNutt

Great video Keep it up Always a good video

[@steves6511]

Great video and enjoy the channel! Looking to buy one but have to save a little more money first.

[@davidcole2337]

Man you getting Technical in this Video.. This new Toy needs to be added to VR Golf.. For a more Accurate Golf experience.

[@WhoDeyFan123]

Can someone share the turn the screw video. I can't find it

[@flipdawhip2573]

u flushed that lil rebound shot at the beginning, by accident too!!! wadda playa

[@jacobbelmontes4899]

At 9m 56s, you said it has sound modes to help with positions. Do you know if this has audio feedback where during a full very slow motion swing, it provides audio feedback for all of the P-positions? Or in other words, does it provide audio queues letting the user know if they are coming in shallow or steep, hitting thin or fat, forward shaft lean, etc.?

[@gageivey236]

Really enjoy your videos

[@pewseyrad]

I bought one second hand and have just ordered the new model. It seems to be having a positive on my game

[@NateLeeProductions]

You should have had the sim on the whole time to see the difference in your ball launch and flight. Just because it shows your in the green doesn’t mean it helps your game. Unless your holding beck because it didn’t help. 🤷‍♂️

[@georgeparkhurst9348]

Thanks for all your great videos. After using this once or twice do you find this is a tool that ends up not being used often like many other training aids or do you find yourself continually incorporating into your practice sessions.

[@ThomasHoffDE]

wish you had your launch monitor on when you did the adjustments

[@johngavin151]

I’ve had the same problem for the past 2 weeks I’ve tried a Ben hogan drill where you take out your index and thumb on your right hand kinda like this 👈👈👈👈

[@markglabinski3016]

Even your worse swings are better by far than my best. When I do hit it well I’m surprised.

[@halfkraazy]

First comment! Love you brother, Thank you for sharing

[@bonefiedrealdeal3640]

Does it really matter if you are into extension at the top? Didn’t Ben hogan have a cupped lead wrist at the top?

[@stevec1660]

Hey, are you using V1 pro for your camera set up? Can that work alongside a Mevo+?

[@billcarrier9622]

Wait a minute aren't your impact numbers supposed be negative if you are adding the correct amount of flexion. I thought that the instructions said that you wanted to deloft the clubface at impact to increase lag, get shallow, and increase your cover.

[@Racing-ou9mr]

Hackmotion vs CTRL sleeve thoughts?

[@stanleysmith2901]

Over complicating my swing is not something I need to do. I'll pass. But I am sure there are golfers out there that will find this useful.

[@jimmyculp8756]

Too much infro. for me? However, I could see where this could HELP?

[@prp2350]

What happen to the going pro ?

[@acemanNL]

Yes, please an update!

[@adriancox-thesantjordigolf3646]

Works well.

[@davidparker8475]

Very interesting tool!

[@TomGillisGolfInstruction]

Great videos!

[@Fancyweasel621]

What up what up what up! Good night from a night shift guy lol

[@OKKIDSPORTS]

Neat product but for the cost you could almost get an R10 which I feel would be much more useful.

[@jovanbunjevic1723]

It’s definitely cool and I can see the value in it but what happened to your ball flight, direction, and distance? Would’ve liked to see how it impacted those areas.. did it change the swing path?

[@7Se7enz]

Comment above is spammer not the real MrSG

[@jarisalmi6484]

Make sence👍

[@richg7264]

Great simple vid of the PLAYER version. Everyone I've seen does the Pro version, which like you said isn't for you and me. My player version is supposed to arrive .. yesterday.. Can't wait to dial it in.

[@jcisme9409]

How has it worked out for you?

[@richg7264]

@@jcisme9409 hello.. it actually didn’t work out for me I sent it back. I’d get the angles in range but shots weren’t great.. clearly have faults in other areas of my swing besides wrists.. Imo you don’t need this.. video ur self between what ur hands look like at impact and the ball flight you can determine if u have an issue with wrist or another swing fault.

[@patc5599]

It would have been nice if they added an Audible type of sound instead of stopping after each swing

[@leeloopatsy]

It’s a great tool indeed To tell you what’s wrong But how to fix it you’re on your own

[@Totschlagen1799]

Should I look at buying this or a launch monitor first, I'm just wanting to start getting better, but lessons are tough to cut into my schedule as I live a bit out of the city. Wondering what you'd recommend between the different product types. I did pick up the Lazrus wedges thanks in part to your review and I do like them, I just need to learn how far they actually go for me :D

[@ThomasHoffDE]

Launch monitor 100%. Not even close

[@ThomasHoffDE]

Interesting but we don’t see how changes benefited the shot or not. Seems like data without any guidance to me. Love your content

[@Head-ck4hu]

I'm 63 and the game was starting to lag. Distance was waning. Then I watched your "Turn the screw" video. I will shoot my age in the coming years.

[@nelsonapontejr.6793]

Whenever my buddies shot goes right we always say he didnt turn the screw. Great tip one of his most memorable.

[@billyd78]

It's cool but if I start thinking about hands in my golf swing I would run out of balls on the golf course.

[@Cryptonomics7]

Interesting

[@peterfebbraio250]

Well, is it worth the money Mr.SG? Cool tech, but is it worth it?

[@dominicwojczynski1762]

Seems like the g snap from George gankas

[@leonhenderson8556]

Mainly for the serious golfers 😂

[@JeremiahAlphonsus]

The editor‘s decision to vandalize this video with ghetto music is very strange.

[@macnkat]

I could never use this. It would make me think far too much.

[@TheCaliking03]

G-Snap better product and costs way less.

[@mfd1068]

I totally agree! I've been using the G-Snap for a couple months and its really improved my ball striking!

[@justmythought1586]

Doubt I would ever buy this. Not worth the money to me. Some days I do really well. Some days I don't. I can live with that.

[@nathanbaldwinUK]

An advert not a review

[@ksflyer7661]

You just cost me $400. I need to stop watching your videos 😂.

[@7Se7enz]

Looks like a great training aid until I saw the price of $400 🤑🤮🤑

[@7Se7enz]

Comment above is spammer not the real MrSG

[@kentonkoch9839]

You used to be cool until you sold out to all the product promos.

[@ronaldsinclair6837]

More useless stuff

[@dmkfactor1721]

Got to be honest for 300 dollars less you could take half a dozen lessons and see a much bigger impact to your overall game! 500 for this is outrageous! Even the lower end one for 300. If you don’t know how to fix the issue how is that beneficial? Nothing is better for your game than going to a PGA pro for some lessons! Best investment you’ll ever make!

[@MrAphilipe]

Man I need to find out where you can get 6 lessons for $300. Around here the going rate is $100-150 per lesson.
