  1. If you concentrate on and learn to “swing the clubhead”, and feel the
    weight of the clubhead during the entire swing, you won’t have to worry
    about swing mechanics. Your swing plane, body, etc. will follow your
    “swing” and put you in all these perfect positions and you release
    naturally when you “swing the clubhead”. The golf swing is only 1.5 seconds
    long, so you can’t consciously be thinking of of all these positions in
    such a short time frame. I don’t know of any touring pro that doesn’t
    concentrate on anything but “swinging the clubhead” from putter to driver.
    The game must be played by FEEL. Yes… The golf swing is that easy if you
    concentrate only on the weight of the clubhead only during the entire swing
    and you must feel it. Try it and watch yourself hit better than you ever
    have in your lifetime.

  2. because it’s easier to attain a higher swing speed standing straight up vs
    in a golf posture I noticed after swinging at full speed standing upright,
    i noticed a strengthened my arms, wrists, etc to such a degree that
    smashing a ball took almost no effort. 

  3. Nice. Thanks for the clarification.

    On a side note. Correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems like all of today’s
    lessons “teach” you all the wrong things only so you will keep taking
    lessons. Brilliant repeat business practice. 

  4. What a wonderfully simple, clear, lesson. If only I had seen this years
    ago I wouldn’t have had to re-invent the wheel myself. This boils the
    swing down to its essentials.

  5. The club might be on plane, but the plane of the arm/shoulder triangle
    opens way up, and has to come back to the shoulder plane at impact. I know
    this is what most all tour players do, and what is taught today. I have
    much better success swinging the plane of the triangle on it’s plane,
    keeping the club head square to it’s arc; no rotation of the forearms.
    Swinging in this manner, with the hands at the top of the back swing barely
    above waist high, I hit high soaring 5 iron 190-200 yds carry, straight as
    an arrow, and I’m 65 yrs, not in particular good shape. In my youth,
    swinging as Monte illustrates here, the best I could muster was about 175
    with the 5 iron, and direction never predictable. I think I’ll stick with
    swinging the triangle on it’s plane.
