Recording your rounds is mandatory when playing in the NEXT Golf Tour. Recordings are used for:
- Rulings and score verification
- Tournament coverage, including results, highlight reels, and player profiles
Recordings are made and automatically uploaded through the NEXT Recorder app.
Storage
- Good internet: minimal storage needed (videos upload as you play).
- Poor internet: free up 2 GB before your round.
Camera Position
- Record in vertical orientation.
- Place the camera behind the hitting area, aligned with the Trackman unit, so your entire body/swing and the impact screen are visible.
- Ensure the impact screen is clear on video. If needed, ask the facility to increase the projector brightness.
- Use a tripod to keep the angle stable throughout the round.
Additional Tips & Tricks
- Set your device to Do Not Disturb to avoid interruptions from calls or notifications.
- A full 18-hole round takes 30–40 minutes per player, so start with a fully charged phone to prevent shutdowns mid-round.
