Bodi Trak Pressure Mat

WHAT IS CENTER OF PRESSURE?

Center of Pressure is the average of all the pressure points between your feet and the ground at any given point in time. Using the BodiTrak system, this is either captured on a 'Static' basis or presented during a golfer's swing  for 'Live' review. 

To better understand COP, think in terms of the vertical forces which occur between someone's foot and the ground. We are looking at the measurement of those forces, and how that changes over time (during a swing).


COP CHART

Below the video feed is the COP CHART.

The current position of your COP will appear as a white dot at any given point during a captured golf swing. The White COP Dot will have a trace line attached to it, referred to as your COP Trace. The COP Trace can be reviewed in real time, by stopping the video at any particular point in a golfers swing.

By capturing data on both the X and Y axis you effectively now can begin to understand the correlation between Swing Path
and Weight Distribution.

 
BODITRAK SYSTEM MODES

1.       Static Positions

Observe your students begin to “Quantify Feel“ as they use the Monitor while standing on the mat and you assist them getting into the correct set up positions for all shots: driver, putting, chipping, side hill lies etc - indoors and outdoors. The mat (8 lbs) is so portable that it can be taken virtually anywhere and used live on the golf course in real world shot conditions.
 

2.       Live Full Swing Data Capturing

By using sound to capture impact we can now begin to explore the swing in terms of when the transition to the back swing occurs and time to impact. 

The relevant COP Traces are included in the COP Manual and the general outcome of the shot pattern for each trace. But keep in mind that a golf shot can be influence by more than just COP trace, compensating hand positions and different levels of hand eye coordination all play a role in the outcome of any shot.
