What you'll learn

  • Import your numbers from a CSV or a photo of the screen
  • Review the mapped metrics and fix any mismatches before saving
  • Turn a saved session into a ranked diagnosis
  • Track carry, spin, and consistency over time and retest

Before you start

  • Golf selected in SwingVantage
  • A launch-monitor CSV export, or a clear photo of the monitor screen

Step by step

  1. Start on the Import screen

    If your monitor exports a CSV — FlightScope, Trackman, SkyTrak and more — drag the file in. No file? Snap a clear photo of the screen instead.

    Why it matters:Why
    Getting the numbers in cleanly is what powers everything downstream.

  2. Review the column mapping

    SwingVantage maps the columns to the right metrics — carry, ball speed, launch, spin, and more. Review the preview and fix any mismatches.

    What good looks like:Good
    Every column lined up to the right metric.
    Common mistake:Avoid
    Saving before checking, so a misread number pollutes your history.

  3. Save it as a session

    Save the reviewed import as a session. From here, your data powers the rest of the loop.

    Why it matters:Why
    A clean saved session is the foundation your diagnosis and trends are built on.

  4. Diagnose and prioritize

    Open Diagnose to see the patterns in your numbers, ranked by what to fix first, each with a confidence level.

    Common mistake:Avoid
    Trying to fix every number at once instead of the one that explains the most.

  5. Track trends, then retest

    Head to Progress to watch carry, spin, and consistency trend over time, turn the top issue into drills, and retest to prove the change moved the numbers.

    Why it matters:Why
    The retest is what confirms a change actually worked rather than a lucky session.

Common mistakes

  • Saving imported numbers without reviewing them.

    Always check the mapped metrics and fix misreads before saving so your trends stay honest.

  • Chasing every metric at once.

    Let Diagnose rank the issues and work the one that explains the most, then retest.

What Your Launch Monitor Numbers Mean

Trust & accuracy

SwingVantage is honest about certainty: findings are labeled by how they were produced and how confident they are. Treat them as a strong starting point you confirm with your own retest, not a final verdict.

Frequently asked

Which launch monitors are supported?

Any monitor that exports a CSV — FlightScope, Trackman, SkyTrak and more — and if yours does not export a file, you can import from a photo of the screen.

What is the most honest distance number to track?

Carry, because total roll depends on the ground rather than your swing. Track carry and let Diagnose rank what to fix.
