It's a No Brainer Phillip...It has to be done as you have Just Shown. .No Pressure on the Back Area where you are likely to have strain on the Lower back...This is so easy to Follow Guys and Girls Alike...Thank again Philip👍
Your method on the golf swing is priceless and should be embraced by all who hope to play the game for a lifetime. No one's young forever, so why not adopt a playing method now that is body friendly and can be utilized for as long as one desires to play. Also, this method does not sacrifice distance, accuracy or any other facet of the game. In fact, I have found it enhanced my game. Thank you
Thanks Ray for that ringing endorsement. I have four fused vertebrae in my back and would not be able to play without Easiest Swing this occurred in my mid forties so I totally agree with what you say.
75 years old 4back operations and a hip replacement- found this channel and it’s is amazing- hitting the ball much farther without pain - can play 2 days in a row which I never could before- thanks so much!!!!
I am almost 63 and have been suffering from back issues for some time. I am going to try this tip right away. Looks very promising. Thank you for sharing.
I came across Easiest Swing videos this past month ago and I can only saw…what a game changer for my game. I’m 77 years old and have been at this game for 40 years. My hcp index has since changed to a 14 and still have game…BUT I have lost my tempo and follow thru which has changed my ball dispersion. I’m missing greens on my second shot on par fours and third shot on par 5’s …meaning I’m chasing a chip shot and praying for 2 putts just to make bogey 😢.. After adopting the Easiest Swing method in a very short time ..I feel like a 30 year old again… I literally play with no pain or stiffness after a round , can hit 100 balls at the range where as before I would hit 20 balls and I was done. Forget lessons,all the other videos you may see. ..and believe me I watched 100 ‘rds and all had good fundamentals…However if your any age..adopt the Easiest Swing method….it works 💯
Hi Bob thank you for that glowing testimony. Your voice is so much more powerful than ours, we know ES works but many in the world of golfers don’t believe what we say, why not? …..they don’t believe can be that easy, as you say there is a ton of stuff on the internet and elsewhere that tries to convince you otherwise! So hearing this from you as a normal golfer of your age and experience is really powerful. We just want more people to discover it. Brian started this off nearly 40 years ago but he would have been delighted that golfers such as yourself have made so much improvement due to his concepts. I wish you many years of easy golf ahead and thank you once again. 🙏
Good evening, that really is such a good example of how easy the swing can be. I think for may golfers, no matter what they do, they frequently fat it or thin a shot, with many flipping the hands, because they dont understand proper impact and release. They get themselves into all manner of body hurting positions "because thats what the pros do", but it still doesnt solve the problem. As I said, if the release was fully understood and perfected, then applying the easy swing would be a great way to successful golf. It would be interesting to see you do a video on the actual release. Best Regards to you.
It is worth reading Ernest Jones “Swing the Clubhead” and Bill Melhorn “Golf Secrets Exposed” to understand more of the essence of Easiest Swing if you’d like to know more about us. We will indeed be doing more videos along the lines you suggest, although we avoid talking about “positions” Brian (our founder) always said that if you break a swing into parts you no longer have a swing.
Thanks Phillip. I only recently found your channel, and I'm so eager to play my first round of golf with my own authentic ES. I'm reading your book, have ordered the Swing Caddie, and have been practicing the dance of golf and the 6 basics everyday for a week now. I have lower back pain daily, but have not yet had any surgeries. Hopefully my new ES will allow me to play for many more years (66 yrs. old now).
Well done Steve sounds like you are making great strides and I’m sure you’ll discover a swing that puts the absolute minimum strain on your lower back. I don’t know if this will help but I took up yoga at 40 having previously had 15 years of lower back pain and have hardly ever had any back problems since (26 years on). I believe my back problems were a consequence of inflexibility but you’ll read more about this in the book. Good to have you on board and maybe consider joining the club in due course where you can get constant support and in depth learning of ES. 👍
Recently found this website!!! Goodness your suggestion’s about taking tension out of your arms,body, plus hold the final position until the ball has landed.. Only recently came back to golf after 39 years…..single figure h/c but found age has caught up with me. Easiest swing is helping me find my mojo again. Many thanks
Hi David great to hear from you and to know that we at ES, are responsible for helping you to rediscover your mojo! Glad to hear you are enjoying tension free golf and feel certain your game will continue to improve again. 👌
Really interested in the ES. Already have the book. But could you maybe post your swing in slomo? I am puzzled as to where you get your speed from. It makes it easier to compare to my own recordings
Hi Joost and thanks for your comments.This is something we are planning to produce in future but in the meantime just think light hold and relaxed wrists. It will get you started on the right tracks. Good luck!
When implementing Easiest Swing properly, most golfers will see an increase in power and distance. Watch this video to learn a little more: ua-cam.com/video/LJv2FV0gv-g/v-deo.html
This is not the normal response although it may encourage a slightly flatter and more inside movement than you had previously. It is unlikely to make you “very” flat though. It may be that you timing will need to adjust to the new plane so that means slowing your centre a little to give time for your hands to release the clubhead a little more. This should straighten your shots and create more clubhead speed into the bargain. Hope that helps.
I have been a fan of Brian and his instructional video for years and continue to follow you and Sean as new videos come out. Aside from the beautiful swing you have developed I notice that you don’t ground your driver. Is that personal preference or something you recommend to all that watch your videos to do? I could see that it might prevent dragging the club in the backswing movement. What are your thoughts on this?
Hi Richard and thanks for your support. I often get asked about this and I will give you the same honest answer - I don’t know when I started doing this - or why! It is over 30 years ago and I’m not sure it was even a conscious thing. I really don’t remember- I certainly don’t think it does any harm to have zero resistance when you take the club away, so my best recommendation is give it a go and see if you like it, if it feels comfortable stick with it and if not, drop it. As you know we are not prescriptive so find your own best way and don’t feel you have to conform. I was listening to an ex- tour player recently and he now starts his swing a foot from the ball and loves it. Be prepared to break a few rules you never know what you might find!! 🤩
I agree with you completely, but now I often miss the sweetspot and hit the ball with the heel of the club and shank. I have the 'feeling' that I'm to close to the ball now. Do you have any tip/trick to solve that problem? Boudewijn, Amsterdam
The simplest way is to put two balls down about 2” apart (experiment+\-) and hit the inside ball and miss the other. It is not usually caused by the distance you stand from the ball. Once you get the feel of hitting more towards the toe of the club just focus on that feel.
@@Easiestswing Thx, I will immediately practice this at the driving range. By the way my hcp went from 22.4 to 14.9, due to your instructions. Once I feel pain in my back, shoulders or other places, I know I did something wrong. Thank you very much.
The more relaxed your arms and wrists can be and the smoother you can make your wrist action the less strain you’ll put on the elbows. Avoid tension at impact and this will help too.
I understand swing should be smooth and tension free, this is what we strive for. However on Matt, repeated fat shots even on smooth swing causes kickback. How to avoid fat shots ? Have bene practicing La Dance de Golf for effortless swing, however need to avoid fat shots. Thank you.
I'm no pro, just a fellow traveler on the path...I would suggest that the answer may lie in letting your head release & rotate forward/left earlier... many of us were trained in the era of keep your head back and still until the ball is away.. ..just a feel worth trying... good luck!😊
This is good for the back but what about the hips and especially the knees? Is it safe for someone who has no medial meniscus and has had an acl repair? I cannot straighten my knee fully and it would be risky to pivot too much on it. The right knee

@@Easiestswing have modified alignment and ball position. fantastic improvement! Thank you, all good providing i don't try to hit a high draw - tend to block it high right!
Like many, I am dealing with low back pain. I've been trying to modify my swing to stop torquing my lower back as you show here. I find that I tend to top it more when I remain more upright. Any suggestions ?
It may be worth considering longer shafts (yours could be lengthened by a good clubfitter). I am 6’4” and have always played with 1” longer shafts. After back surgery in 2004 I went to 2” longer and never looked back.
Phil, I’m age 69. 7 handicap. The last 2 weeks my back pain was so bad I had to stop playing after 15 holes! Where in your program should I start without randomly watching videos? Jay
Sorry to hear this Jay, back pain is just the worst isn’t? If you are serious about this I would suggest you join our club. In there we have over twenty courses and we recommend an order to follow. Each of the courses is in more depth than our UA-cam videos (which are designed to give a flavour of our content). Once you join you will have access to a monthly live zoom workshop to advance your learning in many areas and you can also watch the back catalogue. We also have recorded interviews with our coaches and some very experienced members and there are blog articles and you can also post your swing and ask for help. There are daily discussions all designed to help you find your best and easiest game. Just visit easiestswing.com to check it out. I hope to see you there!
Absolutely agree - in fact nearly all that generation and those before and after did this. In general those players didn’t have back problems. This is a phenomenon that has occurred since “coil” was “invented” in the late 80s early 90s.

Thank you - a big community misses him. Thankfully his legacy lives on which he would be very proud of.

It’s a great way for preventing back issues especially for seniors. Is there also a way to prevent Golfers / Tennis elbow ? Tks.

I’d suggest turning the right toe out more than you would conventionally. This should put less strain on the knee whilst allowing a good turn.
What I am wondering is, when you use a tee, do you address the ball with the club on the ground, or just a little higher?
Personally, I like it a little higher but it has to feel right to you so experiment and find out. There’s no rights or wrongs with this.
love la danse as well but i tend to slice the driver and longer clubs, any clues, without going back to an inclined shoulder plane?

Awesome. But how about with an iron? Your weight needs to be more forward at impact so the club shallows out in front of the ball.
It’s easier when the spine isn’t leaning backwards to achieve a better impact position and improve compression with irons.
Please use wegde to
I’m a little confused which you just taught old people to do is exactly what’s the normal swing rotate properly?
I believe this is a natural movement but many other “methods” promote a very different and much more complex movement.
It seems like you are rotating around you right leg going back and your left leg coming down and thru?
I’m actually rotating round my spine in between my shoulder blades - in turn this would give the impression of exactly what you said.
Do you loose any distance with this move change
Watch this for your answer: ua-cam.com/video/dK2z_UhfCew/v-deo.html
Boy do I know about back issues. Every time I play a round of golf I feel my back for a couple of days.
Hope this really helps then 🙏
