How It Works in a GOATY Live Lesson

  1. GOATY's AI cameras track your sternum position frame-by-frame during your swing
  2. A live trace line shows exactly where your sternum goes versus the elite GOAT Model path
  3. GOATY identifies whether you're loading correctly or swaying, reversing, or lunging
  4. You get immediate voice coaching to correct the pattern in the next rep
  5. After each rep, your GOAT Score updates — you see your improvement in real numbers

The GOAT Model Connection

Elite ball strikers like the GOAT Model show a sternum that moves 3-5 inches behind the ball on the backswing, then drives powerfully through impact. Most amateurs move 0-1 inches, leaving all their potential power untapped.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Sternum Trace Drill?
The Sternum Trace Drill tracks the movement of your sternum (the center of your chest) through the golf swing. GOATY AI draws a real-time trace line showing where your sternum goes and whether it matches elite movement patterns.
What swing faults does the Sternum Trace Drill fix?
It addresses reverse pivot, lateral sway, over-the-top path, early extension, and loss of posture — all of which trace back to incorrect sternum movement during the swing.
How is this different from other golf drills?
Most drills give you a feel to copy. The Sternum Trace Drill gives you real-time data — you see your actual sternum path on screen during your swing, not after. This accelerates learning 10x.
Can I do the Sternum Trace Drill at home?
Yes. You need a smartphone or tablet and a GOATY live lesson session. No special equipment needed — GOATY uses your camera's view to detect pose and trace the movement.
