Was asked to create a hole-by-hole tour of a local golf course. They wanted a flyover. I sent them this and they were blown away.

    Beautiful! Looks like video game footage. Well done.

    Really nice video, but I noticed when watching with headphones that it seems the audio channels were split into left being the voiceover only and right being the backing track only. Pretty video,...

    Pretty video, and the information about the hole was kinda fun to have included.

      Yup I ran into the same thing. I've already fixed it in my best and final version.

    Mind you, not with any of the rotation or spin that the ball might experience. That would just be dizzilying. :P

      I've tried that. I would looooove to pull that off, but it is incredibly hard to do that. Your average tee shot is moving well beyond 100+ MPH off the club. Most drones unless they are custom or...

      I've tried that. I would looooove to pull that off, but it is incredibly hard to do that. Your average tee shot is moving well beyond 100+ MPH off the club. Most drones unless they are custom or high end are going nowhere near 100MPH at top speed.

        Probably some clever editing and a high frame rate on the camera could allow for a simulation of it?

        Could you not take the footage following the trajectory and then just speed up the relevant segments? Like fast off the tee, arc up, slow down while it’s kind of peaking, etc? Pop twice on the...

    Good shots, run down of the equipment / time of day for that? I haven't done drone photography in nearly a decade so my last rig was fully custom with a mirrorless DSLR hanging off of it.
