Common Causes
What might be happening?
- Low point too far back
- Upper body hanging behind the ball
- Trying to help the ball into the air
- Club releasing before impact
Fat Shot Fix
Fix fat shots by finding why the club hits the ground early.
The goal is not just to stop digging. It is to understand why the bottom of your swing is behind the ball and what kind of practice change you can repeat.
Most AI swing analysis sees the swing. SwingIQ helps the AI understand the golfer first.
First Attempts
What golfers often try first.
- Keeping the head down
- Moving every iron back in the stance
- Taking smaller swings
- Avoiding turf shots altogether
Generic Advice
Why quick tips often fail.
Fat-shot fixes can conflict with each other. Moving the ball back may help one golfer and make another golfer steeper or more anxious.
Golfer Context
The same miss can need different priorities.
Your common iron miss, available practice time, practice environment, and swing philosophy can change whether the best first drill is pressure, setup, tempo, or contact feedback.
SwingIQ
How SwingIQ works.
SwingIQ prepares a personalized prompt that asks your AI assistant to prioritize likely causes and suggest drills you can test safely.
SwingIQ does not directly analyze video in the MVP. It creates a personalized AI swing-analysis prompt based on your assessment answers, then you use that prompt with your preferred AI assistant and swing video or images.

A few honest answers.
SwingIQ is an educational context tool. It does not guarantee results, replace lessons, or evaluate pain, injuries, or medical concerns.
Should I just move the ball back?
Sometimes, but not always. It can hide the symptom without improving low-point control.
Will SwingIQ replace a lesson?
No. SwingIQ is an educational prompt tool. Lessons can still be valuable, especially when a change feels confusing or uncomfortable.
