WHAT FORCE AND MOTION CREATES THE GREATEST SPEED?
WHAT IS THE ULTIMATE REPETITIVE MOTION? IT'S WHAT ALL
GREAT PLAYERS DO BUT CAN'T EXPLAlN. IT'S SIMPLE. IT'S THE
ONLY SECRET TO GOLF. LAWS OF MOTION ARE INDISPUTABLE!
MY LIFE'S MISSION IS TO MAKE GOOD GOLF MUCH SIMPLER,
SOUNDER, SAFER, AND SELF-CORRECTING FOR THE MILLIONS
OF GOLFERS WHO STRUGGLE NEEDLESSLY TO IMPROVE.
INSTRUCTION IS TOO HARD!
Most golfer's play poorly. Stats show only 55% of golfers break 100, and 2-5% break 80. Well-intended mechanic instruction is too hard.
On the range (on TV) at a PGA tour event in Chicago, Tiger stated this leads to that, that to this, this to that, etc. A US Ryder Cup captain, Paul Azinger, stated you find a fix that works, you exaggerate the fix and need a new fix. One teacher or great player say's one thing another something else. Fixes online and on TV are endless. How many things can you think of at one time? It was bizarre when one student said five.
Science has no temporary fixes or golf tips. When you learn the simple scientific truth about the golf swing, you're guaranteed to play better golf. Fast. Go to my students documented Testimonials for real results.
Please read: A Century of success (1924-2024) at the bottom of this page. It was the most thought provoking talk on golf instruction ever given to the national PGA of America.
SPENDING TIME WITH LEGENDS -- SAM SNEAD AND GARY PLAYER
As a teaching pro in the 70's I qualified for a PGA tour event. In the locker room was the iconic Sam Snead. The winner of a tied record 82 PGA tour events said, "You can have great positions and a lousy swing, lousy positions and a great swing."
At another PGA Tour event I was paired with Gary Player. The winner of 9 majors said, "For every fundamental in golf I'll show you a superstar who doesn't do it." In a recent magazine article interview Player stated that after all these years golf is still a mystery. Ben Hogan said, "I have no idea why I hit the ball well, I just know when I'm doing it." Fundamental laws of motion solve the mystery of the golf swing. Forever.
GOLF'S ONE COMMON DENOMINATOR
WHAT ALL GREAT PLAYERS DO BUT CAN'T EXPLAIN
Every golfer I've ever met would love to discover one swing thought, one feel, guaranteed by indisputable laws to work for all clubs and shots. Swinging the clubhead by feel is that one thing. A swinging motion is a specific clubhead motion, with a specific feel, that any golfer can learn.
To see a true swinging motion watch a child swinging on a swing. You can't see the force and accuracy the motion creates because it's so smooth and even to your eye. Some tour pro examples are Louie Oosthuizen, Fred Couples, and Annika on the LPGA tour. It's what all great players do but can't explain. They can't explain it because they (and you) can only feel it. A true swinging motion is present in the clubhead of every great player that ever lived. Laws of motion prove It's the only secret to good and great golf.
BOBBY JONES QUOTE
"The one idea for the golfer to keep always in his mind is that when playing a shot, his job is to swing the clubhead. If he does that hitting the ball will take care of itself." Golf's greatest player was the only player in the history of golf to win 44% of the majors he played in. More than Tiger & Jack.
The more you feel what the clubhead is doing, and the less know what your body is doing the better you'll play, and the more you'll enjoy golf. Only the clubhead strikes the ball. In golf common sense isn't so common.
THE LAWS OF FORCE -- THE LAW OF THE PENDULUM
THE TRUTH ABOUT DISTANCE, ACCURACY, AND CONSISTENCY
For more distance science proves only a swinging motion creates centrifugal force. That's the greatest force a human can create. In the Olympics the shot-putter pushes a 16 lb. weight 70 ft. The hammer-thrower swings a 16 lb. weight 270 ft. With all clubs the less you interfere with the swinging motion the greater your speed and distance. When golfers ask, "How can I get more distance?" I tell them to learn to swing the clubhead.
For accuracy and consistency science proves only a swinging motion repeats it's path like a pendulum. The swinging pendulum is the ultimate repetitive motion. No wonder, Johnny Miller during one of the greatest hot streaks in the history of golf told a leading golf magazine, "I swing the club like a pendulum." In 1974 Miller won 8 PGA tour events. In 1975 he won a PGA tour event in the desert by 14 shots. What Miller missed is the cause of his success. With all clubs only a swinging motion acts like a pendulum.
RHYTHM & TIMING, BALANCE
For perfect rhythm and timing watch a child's swinging motion on a swing. You can count to the recurring beat (rhythm) through any size arc. The swinging motion always accelerates at the bottom of the arc, where the
club/ball makes contact. This means you won't hit fat shots, thin shots, or decelerate. A spinning top stays balanced because of the force. Only a swinging motion creates centrifugal force, and the force keeps you balanced. My one-legged student Steve Fangio was an inspiration at golf events. Steve scored 68 on a tough Arizona desert course.
THE ROOT CAUSE OF POOR SHOTS
WHY GOLFERS EXPERIMENT AND TOUR PROS FALL OF THE CHARTS
Instead of a swinging motion, golfers move the clubhead with a jerking, pushing, pulling, guide/steer, and other motions. With all clubs these motions destroy centrifugal force for distance, don't repeat their path like a pendulum for accuracy and consistency, and destroy rhythm, timing, and balance.
When the clubhead is not moved with a swinging motion and a poor shot results, instead of correcting the clubhead motion teachers and golfers correct body parts, moves, positions, etc. If it works the golfer attributes their new found success to the fix. You exaggerate the fix and need a new fix. The end result is frustration, the experimenting merry-go-round, and never reaching your true potential in the game you love. Please read my story in the (About) section. It explains my passion for instruction to change.
ELIMINATE THE TWO GREATEST OBSTACLES FOR ALL GOLFERS
STAYING FOCUSED
"My problem today was thinking too much." Jack Nicklaus. The two
greatest obstacles for all golfers are the mind and eyes. Your mind gets you thinking too much. Your eyes see all the hazards on the course. By focusing only on swinging the clubhead by feel, you won't have time to worry about anything else. History shows doing this won more than 20 national titles.
SWINGING VS. MECHANICS -- FOUR MAJOR ADVANTAGES
1. It's impossible to exaggerate a swinging motion. Any mechanic fix
(moves, positions, etc.) can be exaggerated leading to new fixes.
2. Mechanics are negative. What you do wrong can change. Creating a
swinging motion is positive. What to do right never changes. All that
changes is the club you use. A Ph.D. Psychologist who loves how I
teach called it, "Errorless Learning." I call it a positive way to play.
3. Doing a series of 9 Trouble Shots for Golf Magazine, I proved with a
swinging motion it's rare to need adjustments. Striking good shots,
the instruction editor was surprised. From any position the clubface
always came back to it;s starting point or square. It's a law.
SELF-CORRECT FOR ANY SHOT IN GOLF
4. Feeling only for the swinging motion of the clubhead, you get
instant feel feedback with all clubs. You become your own coach.
WHY GOLF INJURIES ARE SKYROCKETING
Data shows 90% of pros and 70% of recreational golfers will have a golf related injury. Mechanics are not natural. When you do something not natural to your anatomy, and repeat it over and over you're a strain or injury waiting to happen. One of Tiger's many well-intended mechanic teachers he stopped using stated that he may have added to Tiger's physical problems.
WHY YOU WILL NEVER NEED MECHANICS -- THE SAFEST WAY TO PLAY!
Swinging the clubhead by feel eliminates mechanics. The outward pull of the weight of the clubhead (caused by centrifugal force) automatically creates body turn, weight shift, swing plane, correct release, balance, follow-through, etc., without strain. For proof watch my two-minute YouTube video. The iconic Jack Nicklaus told a struggling Ohio State University mens golf team player to swing the weight of the clubhead.
ALL SPORTS PLAYED WELL ARE PLAYED BY FEEL
COMPUTERS CAN'T FEEL
Ask NBA superstar Steph Curry how he makes 3-point baskets from downtown. Steph feels it in his hands and fingers. He doesn't analyze.
With 8 major wins, the iconic Tom Watson said, "The better my feel, the better I play. It's that simple." I couldn't agree more.
WHEN MY STUDENTS STRIKE A GOOD SHOT FOUR THINGS HAPPEN
1. They know the specific feel they're after for all shots.
2. They know how to get that feel.
3. They know how to practice the feel indoors and on the range.
4. They know how to get the feel back when elusive.
THE MOST THOUGHT PROVOKING TALK EVER GIVEN TO THE NATIONAL PGA
A CENTURY OF SUCCESS, 1924-2024
THE FUTURE OF GOLF
Because of his remarkable teaching success, in 1950 Ernest Jones was invited to be the principle speaker at the PGA annual meeting. In the audience, the iconic Bobby Jones endorsed Ernest's teaching. He told the PGA what they need is a simpler effective way to teach, and Ernest Jones gave very effective presentation. The incoming PGA President Horton Smith said that it's too simple, "We wouldn't sell enough lessons." Ironically, Smith, a two-time Masters winner took lessons from Ernest Jones. A golf writer wrote, "Jones gave five times the lessons of other pros." When The Golf Swing Motion DVD came out in 1992, my national golf school was filled for years. When golfers see real improvement they take more lessons, and the word spreads. Worldwide, millions of golfers would love to find a simpler way to play, self-correct, and improve.
My unique connection to Ernest Jones in the (About) website story, makes me the last living pure teacher of the principle he taught. Jones said, "You must teach it pure." From 1968, I've taught the principle pure to all skill levels. Jones is the only teacher in The World Golf Teachers Hall of Fame who taught no mechanics. Jones called mechanics "A long hard road to good golf." I call mechanics the experimenting merry-go-round. The simplicity and soundness of what I teach is the future of golf. Laws of motion are indisputable.
VALIDATION FROM MY PHYSICIST COUSIN
At the University of Colorado, I explained the simplicity and basic laws of what I teach to my brilliant research physicist cousin Art, and the four doctoral students he was helping, (None played golf.) Art said, "It can't be anything else. What do they teach in golf?" I trust my cousin about Physics. He worked on Noble Prize projects.

TIGER WOODS
Tiger talked about feeling shots with his hands. Only your hands contact the club. Only through the feel in your hands can you feel what the clubhead is doing. To get the feel of the swing, Tiger practiced putting with his eyes closed.
GARY PLAYER
At a PGA Tour event I qualifed for I was paired with Gary Player. Player won 9 majors, 9 senior majors, 160 worldwide events. On the range Player said, "When you have the feel you can do anything you want." He changed his grip, stance, positions, and struck shot after shot at his target. With a trained teaching eye, watching only his clubhead motion, I saw the clubhead was swinging.
With all clubs, the less you interfere with the swinging motion the better you're shot. Period.
THE SECRET TO TRICK SHOTS
After a great show, the world renowned trick shot artist Paul Hahn Jr., told me, "I use the same feel for all my shots." Sitting in a chair in The Golf Swing Motion DVD, I strike a full 8-iron to an uphill green for a birdie putt. Having the toe of the club up at address made no difference. All I concentrated on was swinging the clubhead by feel.
GETTING A SQUARE CLUBFACE AT IMPACT WITH ALL CLUBS
The 1995 US Open winner, Corey Pavin, remarked that all he wanted was a square clubface at impact. The swinging pendulum is the ultimate repetitive motion. When you feel a swinging motion, your clubface comes back to it's starting point, or square from any position. Trick shot artists prove this fact. What Pavin missed is that for maximum distance and speed you also need centrifugal force -- that only a swinging motion creates.
The DVD will give you more distance, accuracy, and consistency
with much less physical and mental effort.

A SWING FOR A LIFETIME -- JOHN MONDANTE'S STORY
ONCE YOU LEARN TO SWING THE CLUBHEAD BY FEEL, YOU WILL HAVE A
SWING FOR A LIFETIME OF GOOD SELF-CORRECTING GOLF. IN HIS 80's, MY
TEACHER NICK'S COUSIN JOHN MONDANTE HAD A 3 HANDICAP. IN THE 30'S,
HE LEARNED TO SWING THE CLUBHEAD FROM THE ICONIC ERNEST JONES.
JOHN TOLD ME, "WHEN THE TOUR PROS CAME TO LONG ISLAND, WE HAD
MONEY MATCHES, AND I COULD BEAT THEM ALL."
WHEN I ASKED JOHN WHY HE DIDN'T TURN PRO, HE SAID, "BACK THEN
THERE WAS NO MONEY IN TOURNAMENT GOLF, AND I HAD FIVE KIDS TO
FEED." MORAL OF THE STORY -- LEARN TO SWING THE CLUBHEAD BY FEEL.
