INSTRUCTION IS TOO HARD!
TIGER WOODS -- PAUL AZINGER
Most golfer's play poorly. Data shows that only 55% break 100, and 26% break 90. The problem is well-intended mechanic instruction is too hard mentally and physically and creates the experimenting merry-go-round for all skill levels. All today's teachers teach the same thing -- just different twists on mechanics. Laws of motion prove body moves, positions, etc. is not the answer. Move your clubhead with the correct clubhead motion and you're done. Only the clubhead strikes the ball!
On the range (on TV) at a PGA tour event in Chicago, Tiger stated that, "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 well-intended teacher or great player say's one thing another something else. Mechanic fixes, contradictions, tips online and on the Golf Channel are endless. This creates confusion. How many things can you think of or do in the second it takes to strike a shot?
Mechanics and golf tips are temporary band-aid fixes at best. What all golfers need is something that works for all shots, and is 100% guaranteed by laws to always work when you do it. Laws of motion prove moving the clubhead with a swinging motion by feel gives you that guarantee. For more than 5 decades I've seen it work for all skill levels, clubs and shots in golf. Newton's and Galileo's Laws of motion are indisputable.
Science has no fixes or golf tips. When you feel the freedom of a true swinging motion, you're guaranteed to play better golf. Fast. For proven results go to some of my many students documented Testimonials.
SPENDING TIME WITH LEGENDS -- SAM SNEAD AND GARY PLAYER
POSITIONS, THE HANDS, FUNDAMENTALS, SWING PLANE, ETC.
As a teaching pro in the 70s, 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 was correct when he said, "You can have great positions and a lousy swing, lousy positions and a great swing." When I asked Snead, "What starts and swings the club?" Snead laughed, held up his hands and said, "What do you think I hold the club with." When I told Snead I heard you have a natural swing he said, "A million balls later." Snead validated what I teach when he said, "All I ever worked on was rhythm." My simple demo in the Golf Swing Motion DVD I sell proves with all clubs only a swinging motion creates rhythm (a recurring beat) in golf.
At another PGA Tour event I qualified for I was paired with Gary Player. The iconic winner of 9 majors said, "For every fundamental in golf I'll show you a superstar who doesn't do it." Recently, I heard a PGA tour announcer on TV say, " I don't know why he missed the shot, he was on plane and everything looked good." With a trained teaching eye (watching only the clubhead motion) I could see the clubhead wasn't swinging. The Shocking Instruction Myths demos in my new digital global instruction package I'm creating will be eye-opening. It will create change from the complexity, contradictions, confusion of well-intended mechanic instruction to the simplicity of just swinging the clubhead through your sense of feel.
GOLF'S ONE COMMON DENOMINATOR
WHAT ALL GREAT PLAYERS DO BUT CAN'T EXPLAIN
THE TRUE SECRET TO GOLF
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 very 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 great force (centrifugal) and accuracy because it's so smooth and even to your eye. For maximum speed only a swinging motion creates centrifugal force. Move your clubhead with any other motion -- push, jerk, guide, pull, etc., and centrifugal force is gone. Swinging wrecking balls knock down tall buildings. Some tour pro examples are Louie Oosthuizen, Fred Couples, Ernie Els, and Annika Sorenstam. Els, who won 4 majors said, "My swing is one smooth motion without a beginning or end." The swing is one continuous motion that can't be taken apart. Nobody draws a circle in parts and then tries to put the parts together like today's instruction.
Basic laws prove that a swinging motion present in the clubhead is the bottom line for all good and great shots. With it any golfer can play well! All
skill levels can reach there true potential in the game they love.
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." Bobby Jones.
Golf's greatest player won 13 majors and retired at age 28. Jones won 44% of the majors he played in. A higher percentage of major wins than Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods.
THE LAWS OF FORCE -- THE LAW OF THE PENDULUM
JACK NICKLAUS ON DISTANCE, JOHNNY MILLER'S HOT STREAK,
BRANDT SNEDEKER ON PUTTING
For distance and speed science proves only a swinging motion creates the greatest force (centrifugal) that 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 280 ft. With all clubs the less you interfere with the swinging motion the greater your speed! After Morikawa won the Memorial the iconic Jack Nicklaus said, "He swings the club to get his distance." When any golfer asks, "How can I get more distance?" I tell them, learn to swing the clubhead by feel because all sports played well are played by feel.
For accuracy and consistency science proves only a swinging motion acts 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.
The former 2012 FedEx cup winner Brandt Snedeker was one of the PGA tours best putters for years. He said, "Feel the putter head swinging." Swing the weight of putter head and with some practice any golfer can putt well.
THE TRUTH ABOUT RHYTHM, TIMING, AND BALANCE
SAM SNEAD ON RHYTHM -- TIGER ON BALANCE
WHAT ELIMINATES FAT SHOTS, THIN SHOTS, DECELERATING?
For perfect rhythm watch a child's swinging motion on a swing. You can count to the recurring beat (rhythm) through a small arc like putting, or a large arc like driving. When the iconic Sam Snead told me, "All I ever worked on was rhythm," unknowingly Snead was working on swinging the clubhead by feel. It's what all great players do but can't explain.
For perfect timing, the child's swinging motion on a swing is always accelerating at the bottom of the arc where the club and ball make contact. With a swinging motion you won't hit fat shots, thin shots, or decelerate. Your clubface always come back to it's starting point or square. It's a law! From all kinds of positions trick shot artists prove this fact.
A spinning top stays balanced because of the force. When you swing the clubhead centrifugal force keeps you balanced. My one-legged student Steve Fangio (with a great attitude) was an inspiration at golf events. Steve drove 270 yds., and shot 68 on a tough desert course in Arizona. The iconic Tiger Woods said, "My swing keeps me balanced."
THE ROOT CAUSE OF POOR SHOTS
WHY TOUR PROS FALL OFF THE CHARTS
WHY MILLIONS OF GOLFERS STRUGGLE
FOR CONSISTENT IMPROVEMENT
Mechanic instruction corrects the effect not the cause -- the symptom not the disease. Golfers move the clubhead with jerking, pushing, pulling, guide/steer, and other wrong motions. With all clubs these motions destroy speed for distance, don't act like a pendulum for accuracy and consistency, and destroy rhythm, timing, and balance.
When a poor shot results, instead of correcting the clubhead motion teachers, golfers, swing aids, computers, correct body moves and positions, If it works the golfer attributes their new found success to the fix. The fix gets exaggerate and you need a new fix. The end result is experimentation and frustration. My powerful story in the (About) section explains my passion for instruction to change. Swinging the clubhead by feel gives golfers mental and physical freedom to play better golf, self-correct, avoid golf related injuries and enjoy the great game more.
BOBBY JONES QUOTE
"Probably the most important and useful concept for the golfer is that of swinging, ever swinging as opposed to forceful hitting."
ELIMINATING THE TWO GREATEST OBSTACLES FOR ALL GOLFERS
HOW TO STAY 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 -- including outcome. You won't be thinking; you'll be feeling!
SWINGING VS. MECHANICS -- FIVE MAJOR ADVANTAGES
1. You can't exaggerate a swinging motion. Any mechanic fix (body
moves, positions, etc.) can easily be exaggerated leading to new
fixes.
2. Mechanics are negative. What you do wrong can change. Creating
a swinging motion is positive. The motion never changes. All that
changes is the club you use. Ph.D. Psychologists who love how I
teach call it, "Errorless Learning." I call it a positive way to play.
3. Doing 9 different trouble shots for Golf Magazine I proved it's rare to
need adjustments. Striking good shots, the swinging motion always
brought the clubface back to its starting point or square. It's a law!
After a great show where I taught in Michigan, the late trick shot
artist Paul Hahn Jr. told me, "I use the same feel for all my shots."
4. Take your range game to the course - When you feel the clubhead
swinging on the green or range, you'll be able to take that feel to
the course.
SELF-CORRECT FOR ALL CLUBS AND SHOTS IN GOLF
5. Once you learn the feel of a swinging motion, you'll get instant feel
feedback with all clubs and shots. You become your own coach!
WHY GOLF INJURIES ARE SKYROCKETING
TIGER WOODS
One study showed 70% amateurs and 90% pros will have a golf related injury. Mechanics aren't natural. When you do something not natural to your anatomy, and repeat it over and over you are a strain or injury waiting to happen. The modern style of creating the swing is a prime example. Tiger
fired four well-known well-intended mechanic teachers. One stated, "I may have added to Tiger's physical problems." Another that "I may not know what's right, but I know what's wrong." Nobody's at fault because mechanics is all teachers are taught and know. The legendary Ernest Jones said, "You must understand motion." There is a much safer, sounder, simpler, self-correcting way to play with more than a century of success. Basic laws of motion don't lie.
WHY GOLF RELATED INJURIES ARE NEEDLESS
WHY SWINGING THE CLUBHEAD IS A SAFER WAY TO PLAY
JACK NICKLAUS
With a swinging motion all body parts naturally follow the clubhead motion without strain. The outward pull of the weight of the clubhead (caused by centrifugal force) automatically creates distance, accuracy,
consistency, weight shift, body turn, swing plane, delayed release, balance, follow-through, etc. For proof watch my two min. YouTube video, and it's simply explained in The Golf Swing Motion DVD. The legendary Jack Nicklaus told a struggling OSU mens golf team player to "Swing the weight of the clubhead." Great advice from the winner of a record 18 majors.
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 body moves or positions. 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! Tom wrote me a nice supportive note with a U.S. Ryder Cup captain heading.
WHEN MY STUDENTS STRIKE GOOD SHOTS FOUR THINGS HAPPEN
1. They know the specific feel that works for all shots in golf.
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.
MORE THAN A CENTURY OF SUCCESS, 1924-2025
THE MOST THOUGHT PROVOKING TALK EVER GIVEN TO THE PGA
THE FUTURE OF GOLF
Because of his remarkable teaching record (teaching all skill levels to swing the clubhead), in 1950, the scholarly one-legged Ernest Jones was invited to be the main speaker at the PGA annual meeting. In one 15-year stretch, 7 Jones' students won the US National Championship and 7 finished 2nd. For 40 years Jones was America's foremost teacher. He helped tens of thousands of recreational golfers score lower, and make good golf much simpler mentally and physically. One swing thought, one feel, that works for all shots.
At the meeting the iconic Bobby Jones told the PGA what they need is
a simple effective way to teach, and Ernest Jones gave an excellent talk.
The incoming PGA President Horton Smith stated, "it's too simple, we won't sell enough lessons." A golf writer wrote, "Jones gave five times the lessons of other pros." Jones said, "You can always learn more about what's right." When my DVD The Golf Swing Motion came out in 1992, my national golf school filled for years without marketing. You give more lessons because when golfers really improve they tell others. Ironically, Smith, a two-time Masters winner took lessons from the genius Ernest Jones.
When Jones was invited to be the principle speaker to the golf writers of America he told them they were printing rubbish for 50 years. His talk won over many writers. Because of the simplicity, during the Jones era many writers and teachers thought golf instruction should be standardized to what Jones taught.
My late teacher Nick Martino was proud of the 15 club champions he taught on Long Island. It was from Nick that I learned the principle pure and uncorrupted the way Jones taught him. Nick called Jones "The Master." The brilliant Jones is the only teacher in The World Golf Teachers Hall of Fame who taught no mechanics. Jones called mechanics, "A long circuitous route to good golf." The basic laws, simplicity, and common sense behind the principle I teach is the future of golf. Only the clubhead strikes the ball, and the less you interfere with the swinging motion of the clubhead the better you play. Period. Laws of motion are indisputable!
A golf writer wrote, "Ernest Jones never lost an argument about the golf swing." You can't argue against common sense and Newton's and Galileo's laws. Jones told a NYC newspaper reporter, "There are no golf tips. There are fundamental laws that govern the motion of the club." I'd add, and those laws are present only when you move your clubhead with a swinging motion. The precise motion of a child swinging on a swing.
VALIDATION FROM MY COUSIN THE PHYSICIST
THE ROOT CAUSE OF GOOD AND GREAT GOLF
JACK NICKLAUS ON MOTION
At the University of Colorado, I explained the simplicity of what I teach to my brilliant research physicist cousin Art, and the four doctoral students he was helping, (none played golf). They all said, "It can't be anything else. What do they teach in golf?" My response was, "They dissect the swing (which is a specific clubhead motion) into body parts, moves, positions, etc. and expect golfers to put the pieces together and play well." The iconic Jack Nicklaus remarked that like baseball, tennis, (and other sports) golf is a motion. The question is what motion? The motion must be made with the clubhead (not the handle), because only the clubhead strikes the ball.
Watching a child swinging on a swing, nobody can call anything but that specific motion a swing. Fundamental laws prove the swinging motion is the root cause of good and great golf. The less you interfere with the motion the better you play. Period! Any golfer who learns to swing the clubhead by feel will have a lifetime of good, self-correcting, injury free golf.

Your best shots feel good. Listen to these greats talk about feel.
TIGER WOODS
Tiger talked about feeling shots with his hands. And after all his surgeries that he still had good use of 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 swinging motion Tiger practiced putting with his eyes closed.
GARY PLAYER
As previously mentioned I was paired with the iconic Gary Player at a PGA tour event. On the range Player said, "When you have the feel you can do anything you want." Gary 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 a swinging motion with little interference. Nobody swings with zero interference, but you can get close. With all clubs, the less you interfere with the swinging motion the better the shot and the lower your score. Period.
THE SECRET TO TRICK 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. All I concentrated on was swinging the clubhead by feel with my hands. I was sitting on the body's largest muscle, the gludeus maximus. Small and large muscles add power. It's a myth that only the large muscles swing the club.
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 with all clubs. It's a law!
