Driving Range AppHow to Use
Driving Range runs on your Garmin watch and analyzes each swing in real time using eight metrics. It also includes a built-in metronome for rhythm training. Use the links below to install the app, understand each screen, and adjust settings so practice feels natural from the first bucket.
This section lists every guide page in reading order. Open any topic when you need a refresher at the range.
Getting Started
Install the app and hit your first tracked swing.
Session Screen
Understanding the main training display.
Tempo View
The instant feedback screen after each swing.
Swing Details
Deep dive into every metric for a single swing.
Swings List
Browse all swings from your current session.
Session Summary
Review your complete session after finishing.
Settings
Configure the app to your preferences.
Metronome
Use the built-in metronome to train swing rhythm, lock in tempo, and build consistency.
Swing Score
How the overall swing score is calculated.
Tempo
Understand backswing-to-downswing ratio, tour benchmarks, and how to fix fast or slow tempo.
Smoothness
How angular velocity changes swing-to-swing, and how to smooth out jerky motion with grip and rhythm drills.
Transition Quality
Change of direction at the top: smooth transition, rushing, stalling, and hitch patterns with fixes.
Acceleration Profile
Shape of downswing speed build-up: ideal progressive acceleration versus linear, sluggish, or explosive patterns.
Follow-Through
How quickly angular velocity decays after peak speed — full finish versus abbreviated or abrupt stops.
Arc Consistency
Downswing radius proxy from gyro data: consistent arc versus variable or collapsing patterns.
Backswing Tempo
How your current backswing peak speed compares to your session average — controlled, fast, or rushing.
Wrist Release
When wrists unhinge in the downswing: lag, casting, early release, and data limits.
