    OK....I know this is way off topic, but I need some guidance.

    I have become re-infected with golf. After being retired from golf for the past 10 years because of soccer, I am back, and my OCD (obsessive-compulsive-disorder) is in full swing.

    I am going to buy a new camcorder for looking at my swing. What features do I need? Is there a particular brand or style that will make looking at my golf swing a better proposition?

    I know next to nothing about camcorders. I went to Best Buy today, and told the salesman what I needed it for, and he said all would do just fine. I am less than convinced that a 19 year old college student that has never taped anything more complex than a friend throwing up is an expert on video taping a golf swing.

    suggestions or opinions needed. (except of course the suggestion that I am out of my mind)

    Thanks Rikk

    Found the exact info I needed. CSwing recommends Canon or Sony. I am looking at the Canon ZR200.

    I should have my home driving range up and running by next weekend.
