Download or read book The Shape of Golf Plane and Simple written by Bob Haas and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2008-03 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shape of Golf, Plane and Simple reveals a blueprint for hitting the golf ball with the middle of the clubface. This book describes a technique that is very likely the best way to swing a golf club by showing how the dual arc angle sets into motion the multiple arcs in the golf swing. This book shows the angles and proper observation points and describes how the body, arms, and wrist work in the right sequence to create a perfect motion that achieves great success. The book describes the two points that define a perfect golf swing. Bob Haas wrote this book based on his 20] years as a golf instructor, his experience, and his knowledge after teaching tens of thousands of different golfers. This book sets the standard in which the swing should be observed and measured for optimum ball flight and distance for all golfers. Although golfers have different builds and tempos, only one shape is known to reliably hit the ball with the middle of the clubface, which is the key for maintaining correct consistency and hitting the golf ball farther. Any golf swing can hit the perfectly good shots randomly, but golfers want to hit perfect shots consistently. Hitting perfect golf shots requires a specific technique that cannot be achieved consistently without this pattern. Based on fact and logic, the information in this book should de-mystify the right shape of the golf swing. If a golfer can practice and repeat this motion, they will truly find success in ball behavior. In fact, there's a direct correlation between this shape of golf and the shape used by the best golfers on the planet. There are more ways to swing a golf club incorrectly than there are to swing it correctly. Golf swings are chronic. Golfers have an inherent way of swinging the golf club, and they have a natural sequence of body, arms, and wrist. Identifying the natural sequence and how it influences the ball flight and changing to The Shape of Golf, Plane and Simple is the key to better ball behavior. Bob hopes you find this short book not only informative, but also helpful in your quest for perfection. Born in 1966 and raised in Boulder Colorado, Bob Haas has taught 20,000+ golfers at various facilities across the United States. He played his college golf at Southern Utah University, where he earned a B.S. in Business Administration. He also played on the Dakotas Tour and Prairie Tour, but his main interest has been in golf instruction, teaching all aspects of the golf game. Bob has taught golf for over 20 years and gives daily presentations on the golf swing. He truly loves the game and has always had a strong enthusiasm for teaching. Although Bob has studied many of the great instructors, John Jacobs of England has influenced and affected his teachings more than any other instructor. After studying golf for over 30 years, Bob found a way to observe and explain a technique to make golfers more consistently correct and to hit the ball farther. Finding the right technique has made Bob's swing much easier and the ball behavior more predictable. He wishes that he'd had this information on day 1 of his golf career, because it could have saved a lot of wasted time and energy. Bob was blessed with the ability to demonstrate the proper swing and present it to an audience, a skill that is very rare. It's taken quite a few years to perfect. Bob has always sought out the right way to swing a golf club, and he's discovered the shape of the perfect golf swing. When used with the right set-up, Bob's instructions will help golfers hit perfect shots consistently. This gives golfers a higher success rate. He hopes you find this information not only informative, but also helpful in your quest for the rather elusive perfect swing.

Book excerpt: This book was featured on Golf Channel and recommended by America's top 10 golf instructor. It will revolutionize the way you see and learn the golf swing! Did it ever occur to you that a swing plane doesn't even exist? Do you know that Mr. Ben Hogan didn't swing on the plane he wrote about? Can you imagine that the swing plane you have in mind may be the cause of your slice or shank? In an effort to clarify the misconceptions on the seemingly simple swing plane, this book reveals the truth and fundamentals hidden behind. Here is the shocking truth: there is no backswing or downswing plane in a conventional full swing, there is only the striking plane. The book introduces the Striking Plane Swing Model, which has been extracted from the swings of numerous great ball strikers in history. The model defines the essence of the swing and the proper sequence of club movement, and is based on the laws of classical mechanics and the knowledge of human anatomy. This book will show you why and how many of existing swing plane theories are flawed. A simple but accurate swing analysis method is also introduced and can be used to analyze your swings and pinpoint your issues. Golfers of all levels can benefit from the concepts discussed in this book and will be able to look at the golf swing from a brand new perspective. Knowing the true swing plane fundamentals, an amateur will be able to better understand and diagnose his swing issues; an advanced player will be able to own his swing by creating a swing style that suits him the best.

Download or read book How to Play Golf in a Single Plane written by Billy J. Gaines Sr. and published by . This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Book was not written on the life and legend of Mr. Moe Norman, rather on the contributions he made towards the single plane swing and the game of golf itself. What I am trying to do in this book is to relay to the reader what I have learned over the 13 1/2 years I spent teaching this method. Mr. Norman took a natural movement used for chopping wood or nailing nails and perfected it into the single plane golf swing we know of today. That's why this movement has been referred to as, ?The Hammer Affect?. The genius of the man was not to completely invent a new golf swing ?no?, but rather to revert back to a movement that we humans have been using since the dawn of time. He did not alter that natural motion, as stated above, but adjusted his setup to fit it and by doing so he defined the meaning ?Square Tracking?. The second most dramatic change the single plane swing gives the golfer is that the forward motion is initiated by a shoulders down (upper body) movement rather than the feet up movement as in the covenantal swing! Because of this setup and upper body swinging movement there is less stress in the low back, less back pain! Through years trial and error he produced the most repeatable and consistent swing in the game of golf. The same swing which allowed him to shoot the three 59s in tournament play. I?m convinced that if Mr. Norman had the charisma of other Pro?s, half the golfing world would be swinging in a single plane. Join me in this book and learn this wonderful swing.

Download or read book My Golden Lessons written by Jack Nicklaus and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-11-01 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He made his first cut in a professional major championship in the 1958 U.S. Open, at age eighteen. Forty years later, he had his most recent top-10 finish in a major at the Masters. In between, he won eighteen professional majors, a hundred tournaments worldwide, and provided countless thrills along the road to being named “Golfer of the Century” by his peers and by publications from America to Antarctica. In his unprecedented run at the top of the game, Jack Nicklaus has seen the importance of constant learning and constant refinement. Your game at age sixty cannot be the same as your game at age twenty; where you were once able to overpower the golf course, with time and wisdom you discover new ways to approach the challenges of the game that depend less on physical ability and more on mental agility. Along the way, you learn which fundamentals will always put you in good stead, and you see what advice has stood the test of time. In My Golden Lessons, the greatest golfer of them all takes the best from his many years of playing, practicing, and studying the game, and distills it into over 120 pieces of priceless instruction. Drawn from his immensely popular columns in Golf Digest and Golf Magazine, the topics cover the full spectrum of the game, from choosing the right equipment, on through the fundamentals of stance, grip, and setup, to the pursuit of power and the subtleties of the short game and putting. These techniques helped Nicklaus set the marks that future generations will strive to match, but it was his mastery of the mental side of golf that truly set him apart from his peers and his predecessors -- and he shares his advice on the mind game as well. In addition, the book presents a beautifully drawn sequence of the Nicklaus swing at its peak, alongside advice tailored to the needs of the better players who want to be better still. My Golden Lessons is a book that took a lifetime to prepare, but one that will improve your game from the first few minutes it spends in your hands. These are the techniques that made Jack Nicklaus the golfer he is, and his clear, bite-sized pointers will show you the path to hitting better shots, shooting lower scores, and enjoying the game more every time you play.
