Golf instruction was stuck in the past
Traditional golf lessons were expensive, inconvenient, and hard to retain. Players would take a lesson, try to remember the feedback, and often fall back into bad habits within days. There was no way to capture, review, and track progress over time.
Golf Channel saw an opportunity: bring the quality of professional instruction to every golfer's pocket, with the ability to record swings, get expert analysis, and track improvement over weeks and months.
