My Golf Bag - Golf Geeks Can Measure Lie and Loft angles On Their iPhone

October 20, 2010 in Sports

[prMac.com] Perth, WA, Australia - Incorrect lie angles can force a golfer to hit right or left of target no matter how good a swing. Inconsistent loft angles make distance control difficult, especially with short irons. These are important elements that are normally addressed by custom club fitting but no matter how good the specification is, club manufacturers and retail shops don't necessarily get it right first time.

"My Golf Bag" allows a club pro, club fitter or golfer to check clubs quickly and easily. iSlice Golf uses the triple "A" accredited experience of Australian PGA professional Duncan Kegg to design its apps. His knowledge of club fitting and the accelerometer capability of the iPhone were a perfect match for creating a neat and really useful app.

My Golf Bag 1.0 features:
* Virtual Golf Bag that allows users to specify the clubs in their bag, then measure and store their lie and loft angles
* Industry standard lie and loft angles tell users "what's the norm"
* Easy to follow in-app instructional videos explain why lie and loft angles are important and how to measure them using the app
* Uses detailed calibration to ensure accuracy
* Adhoc measurement capability and option to store results direct to the virtual golf bag

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3G/3GS/4, iPod touch
* iOS 3.1.2 or later
* 23.6 MB storage

The methods used to measure lie and loft angles are well known to club fitters and golf professionals, My Golf Bag is the first app to allow anyone to do this wherever they are with their iPhone or iPod touch. The ability to record a golfer's own clubs will allow them to check these critical elements over time, or just show off to their golfing buddies.
