Turn any swing into a broadcast-style tracer shot.
Import your footage, click the ball three times, and Auto Tracer finds the rest of the flight. CaddieStudio renders the tracer — the same look you see on tour broadcasts.
Tracking a ball flight by hand takes an editor 20–40 minutes per clip in general-purpose video software.
With CaddieStudio, you click the ball three times and it's done in minutes.
You mark the ball. CaddieStudio does the rest.
Import your clip
Load your golf footage into CaddieStudio — handheld phone video works fine.
Mark the ball
Click where the ball is struck, once on the way up, and where it lands. Auto Tracer finds the rest of the flight, and you can add or move points yourself.
Style and export
Pick a preset or tune the look, then export a clean, broadcast-style tracer video.
Everything you need to go from raw footage to a shareable clip.
Auto Tracer
Click the ball where it's struck, once on the way up, and where it lands. Auto Tracer finds the rest of the flight, and you can line up the next shot while it searches.
Precision Manual Editing
Every point is yours to add, move, or remove, on any footage — low light, busy backgrounds, fast swings included. Clicks can snap onto the ball's center.
Handheld-Friendly Tracking
CaddieStudio compensates for camera movement, so the tracer stays put on the background through pans and zooms, even shooting handheld. A tripod still gives the cleanest tracking, but it's not required.
Customizable Tracer Style
Start from a built-in preset or adjust color, thickness, glow, and shape yourself, including a tracer that shrinks as the ball flies away from the camera.
Broadcast Graphics
Make score bugs, lower thirds, hole cards, and leaderboards as overlay videos, in the same app and the same project as your tracers.
Export Ready-to-Use Video
Export an MP4 to share as is, or a transparent ProRes 4444 file to drop into your existing editing workflow and composite over your own footage.

Frequently asked.
What platforms does CaddieStudio support?
Windows 10/11 (64-bit) and macOS. Both downloads are on the Download page.
How much will it cost?
It's free during the beta. After the beta, CaddieStudio becomes a paid app. Pricing isn't final yet, and everyone using it in the beta gets advance notice and early-access pricing. See the Pricing page for details.
Can I use it for my monetized channel or client work?
Yes, during the beta. Until the official release, you can use your tracers for anything, commercial included. After release, using CaddieStudio to make money (a monetized channel, sponsored posts, client work, paid lessons) will need a paid plan. See the Terms page for details.
What footage works best?
Any reasonably lit swing video — phone footage, DSLR, or a launch-monitor camera angle all work. Auto Tracer does best when the ball is clear against the sky; on harder footage you can always place the points yourself.
How do I get it?
Download it now from the Download page. There's no invite, account, or credit card. The app tells you when a new version is out.
Does it work with handheld or moving-camera footage?
Yes. CaddieStudio compensates for camera movement automatically, so handheld shots track well. A locked-down tripod still gives the cleanest result, but it's not required.
Can I use the export in Premiere, Final Cut, or DaVinci?
Yes. Export a transparent ProRes 4444 file and drop it straight into your existing timeline in any editor that supports the codec.
Do I need editing experience?
No. CaddieStudio is built to make a professional-looking tracer far simpler than doing the same thing by hand in general-purpose video software — no editing background required.
How does tracing work?
Import your golf clip, click Auto Tracer, then click the ball where it's struck, once on the way up, and where it lands. Auto Tracer finds the rest of the flight. You can also click the ball yourself at several points, or fix any stretch Auto Tracer gets wrong.
What else can it make besides tracers?
Graphics: score bugs, lower thirds, hole cards, and leaderboards, exported as overlay videos. Pick Tracer or Graphics from the Home screen; one project holds both.
