Download or read book Golf Swing Solution written by Steven Nussbaum and published by Skyline Publications (FL). This book was released on 2010-09-29 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golf Swing Solution takes a "new" angle on golf swing instruction by presenting the "foundation" for each golf swing that must be in place before all other forms of conventional instruction can succeed. Conventional Golf Instruction is Presented Backwards! - After reading many books/articles on the golf swing, watching many golf instruction videos/DVDs, taking many private golf lessons, and attending the worlds' best golf schools- including, David Leadbetter and Hank Haney, the conclusion is most golf swing instruction is presented backwards- or from the bottom up, versus from the top down- focusing on many small pieces instead of presenting the entire big picture foundation of the golf swing first. Without a big picture foundation golf swing context, most golfers end up spinning their wheels and find it hard to improve their golf games, no matter how much they practice, or no matter how many lessons they take. In 4-sections, Golf Swing Solution provides the "Critical Bridge" for all other forms of conventional golf instruction to succeed. 1. TENSION-RELEASE GOLF SWING - What you need to feel at setup? What is the proper sequence of the arms and legs? What triggers takeaway? What turns in the golf swing? What causes swing plane? How do the wrists cock? What squares the golf club at impact? How the grip aligns with golf club construction? How to apply professional golf swing tempo and rhythm? 2. TENSION-RELEASE SAND SWING - Learn the key differences between the Sand Swing and the Full Swing. Learn the key set up and swing adjustments that make it "easy to get out of the sand" every time. 3. TENSION-RELEASE CHIP SHOT - Use Tension-Release swing principles to make proper arc + pendulum adjustments for chipping. 4. BALANCE PUTTING METHOD - New and original putting instruction that applies physics and science principles to the putting stroke- including (1) Single Pivot application (2) Arc + Pendulum sequence that utilizes natural centrifugal and centripetal force to roll the golf ball straight, with exceptional touch and feel. (3) Science of reading greens and break- uphill, downhill, left and right. " I have just finished the book. On the surface it seems absolutely brilliant. In simplest form, the golf swing is just a vertical to horizontal cycle and when you apply this cycle in correct sequence, all the other parts seem to fall together and you do not have to focus on particulars like weight shift, swing plane, wrist cock, release etc. Very interesting observations, and yet to my knowledge have never seen the golf swing presented like this before. Your presentations on chipping and sand swing are equally brilliant! The putting material is more involved and will take a patient read. Now to take this to the course. Best regards, and kudos on a great job ..." (Unsolicited E-mail from Golf Swing Solution Reader).

Download or read book The Only Golf Lesson You ll Ever Need written by Hank Haney and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2011-07-12 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Only Golf Lesson You'll Ever Need, Hank Haney, one of the most respected and soughtafter golf instructors in the world, shares the secrets he's learned by observing hundreds of thousands of students--from top PGA Tour pros to high-handicappers. He explains how intelligent observation of your ball-flight tendencies--the way your shot behaves in the air--provides the answers to helping you develop a consistent repeating swing that will lower your scores. You'll also pick up valuable pointers on how to precisely match your equipment to your game. Hank Haney believes that a "flawed swing" that still produces a good shot is a good swing. By focusing on the outcome of your swing first, rather than on the swing itself, he believes you can often avoid making the awkward and unnatural changes to grip, stance, posture and alignment that many golf instructors ask of their students. The Only Golf Lesson You'll Ever Need will help you straighten your hook or slice, add distance to your drives, identify and fix the flaws in your swing, and become a wizard around the greens. "I'm proud of the way my swing holds up ion all kinds of conditions and under the severest pressure. Both are a tribute to Hank Haney and his teaching. Hank knows more about ballflight and what controls it than anyone in the game. And if you understand that, you're on your way." -- Mark O'Meara from the Foreword to The Only Golf Lesson You'll Ever Need

Download or read book Weedon s Way The Pain Free Way written by Reeves Weedon and published by Grosvenor House Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With back injuries in golf rising, there is clearly a need to investigate and resolve the problem via the biomechanics of the swing, rather than researching the technology of the clubs. Having worked with scientists and doctors with a historical interest in innovation within sporting techniques, at Northern Michigan University, Michigan State University USA, and Sports Surgery Clinic (Dublin), we have discovered that compared to the modern swing our revolutionary Weedon's Way swing creates significant less torque between the thorax and pelvis without loss of performance. The Pain-Free Way: A Swing for Golfers with Bad Backs: In the modern swing, during the downswing the thorax accelerates whilst the pelvis decelerates. As a consequence, the thorax and pelvis act in opposite directions; massive torque is inflicted on the lumbosacral spine mainly at L5/S1. In the Weedon's Way swing the thorax and pelvis travel at similar speeds reducing the aforementioned torque. In essence we remove the axis tilt i.e. body's side bend on the downswing. In the course of my project I have collated and reviewed 17 years of scientific research papers relating to low back pain in golf. The solution common to all papers is to play/practise less whilst performing core strengthening exercises. There has never been an evidence-based alternative until now.
