"Golf Lessons Have Changed"... 'Establishing a Data Golf Culture'
The Leading Role in MZ Generation Golf Lesson Changes Experienced Through Virtual Reality Simulators
Data-Driven Lessons Using Portable Launch Monitors Instead of Guesswork Trends
[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] Golf lessons are changing.
Since COVID-19, the golf population of the MZ generation, who are familiar with data, has exploded, establishing a data-driven golf culture. It is analyzed that the MZ generation started golf with virtual reality simulators from the beginning, showing a distinctly different lesson tendency compared to traditional golfers.
Kim Beom-mo, director of the Model Golf Academy operating within Show Golf, cited the introduction of cutting-edge swing analysis systems at practice ranges as a barometer of changes in lesson trends. Director Kim said, "Traditional lessons could only be conducted in a hit-or-miss manner because data could not be checked," adding, "Since the introduction of launch monitors, the fourth industrial revolution in the golf industry, accurate data about swings is provided and immediate feedback is applied."
Director Jung mentioned, "When lesson information is provided through data, the students' understanding and skill range have broadened. The time to correct swing flaws has shortened," and also referred to the latest golf practice range trends, saying, "Recently, interest in launch monitors has increased among golfers. More people are checking data with personal devices and correcting their swings."

When launch monitors equipped with advanced technologies such as radar were first introduced in Korea, accessibility was limited due to cost and space constraints. However, recently, portable personal launch monitors like FlightScope and Voice Caddie, which maintain performance but are affordable, have been released. World-class players such as Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland), Tiger Woods, and Bryson DeChambeau (both from the United States) are already using them for practice.
