We hope our senior golfers find these simple concepts helpful in achieving a better turn in their golf swing, ultimately making the game a bit easier! Remember to check out easiestswing.com to learn more about Easiest Swing.
Hey Phil, just watched a couple of your senior videos and standing a little taller, lifting up the left heel and pulling back the right foot made my swing easier, compact and effortless
Excellent video-thank you. I watched the full swing in your video repeatedly from 4:31 to 4:43. Then, I practiced swinging a club in my yard with an upright stance and finishing as you instructed. Next, I took it to the range and then the course. I do a half swing because it helps me control my tempo better and finish in balance, which is my particular golfing demon. I dropped 6 strokes from my previous round yesterday. I am a 13 handicap. PS - I put the Mark O'Meara perfect grip on my backyard practice club. Then, each time I use it, I have a perfect grip, and I never think about it.
Another great video Phil for we, senior golfers! I like the idea of turning out the right toe a bit and even pulling back the right leg somewhat. The Le' Dance move that you recommended using for weight transfer is excellent! Glad I found your book and your channel! Well Done Sir!
For all of you senior golfers, what Phillip is teaching is the key to playing golf in a way that will allow you to continue playing for years to come. The secret is swinging in a relaxed manner. Here in Arizona, golfing in very warm conditions can feel like the Batan death march if you are swinging the club with a strangle hold on the grip, out of balance, and too much tension in your arms and shoulders. Instead of finishing a round feeling tired, the Easiest Swing method has you walking off of the 18th green still feeling like you could easily play another 9 holes. I am finding much more enjoyment in my game today than I ever had prior to finding the Easiest Swing. I score better and I feel better. I may not look like the young bucks with a pro style swing, but I don’t look like the guys that swing out of their shoes and look like they are chopping wood. If you are a senior, try it. I think you will like it a lot.
What a wonderful testament- thank you!🙏 more and more golfers are coming to this conclusion. It is just mind blowing for golfers who have spent years being convinced that golf is difficult to discover that it doesn’t have to be!! I too would love to wind the clock back 50 years to discover how good I could have become if I had discovered this then! Play well & stay well 👍
Had a long conversation with Brian about one length irons and he was strongly considering incorporating this into the easiest swing. I finally bought an immaculate set very cheap off a well known auction site. Had 9 holes with them last night and then took them out in one of our club major competitions where I placed third. These have got to be great for the easiest swing , same ball position and no bending over, what do you think? As Brian said, always breaking rules.
Yes indeed he thought in particular that short irons were difficult for a lot of seniors due to the extra bend required he played with a set of one length irons that Ping made specially for him. Unfortunately they are not interested in putting them into production but we are talking to other manufacturers and maybe one day will have a solution. 🤞well done on your success keep it going!
🎉Gentlemen, all of the exercises that encompass this golf swing have benefits well beyond the swing. The swinging leg drill and the Danse, have made improvements to my overall mobility and balance. As this swing becomes more and more my natural swing my game is leaving me more refreshed.
Isn’t it wonderful to discover something akin to winding the clock back. Thanks for your comment it makes it all worthwhile to hear how much our followers are benefiting 🏌🏾♂️👍
Question about the new book - does it get into the specifics of instruction on the swing mechanics or more focused on the philosophy behind the swing? I need a driving range companion and videos are hard to watch at the range:)
There is plenty about how to improve your swing avoiding the three deadly don’ts and incorporating the six basics. There is much about the philosophy and also how to improve and strengthen your mental game. It will help you to reduce tension and discover your own Easiest Swing. I hope you get a lot from reading it.
Thanks Bradley and speedy recovery. I broke my left wrist five years ago (plated & 5 pins) and worried I wouldn’t be able to swing properly once it recovered - physio was the key you need to be religious with it and I still do exercises every day and will do for the rest of my life to keep it moving - good luck & stick with it!
This swing is pain free. When you feel like you’re swinging with effort,you’re not doing it right. I think it was Sam Snead said that you should be able to whistle normally while you swing. Try it!
I really wish I could learn from you in person. My average driver distance went down in 2024 from 180 to 150 (total, not carry). All irons are now under 100 yards. I couldn't break 100 all year. I have been following your videos, but still cannot achieve better results. Do you ever visit the US, or is there someone in the US who teaches the easiest swing?
Perhaps a misconception on my part. A lot of tuition promotes tilting in the backswing. Your backswing appears quite level. I tried this but ended up with a really flat backswing. Most likely my errors!!! Any thoughts appreciated.
It sounds like you are having a reaction to having tilted your shoulders previously. This can tend to encourage your arms to swing across your body in order to prevent the swing becoming too steep. As soon as you level the shoulders more, this same move will make you swing too flat. Good news is you are aware of it, it will just take a bit of time to sort itself out and to simplify your movement.
We have just put a course on the members site specifically on better ball striking and avoiding fat shots. If you were maybe considering joining perhaps this could be the deciding factor.
...I would suggest letting your eyes and head release as you approach impact, like Brian did in his videos... works for me, might for you... good luck!😊

Brilliant - it IS easier isn’t it!?
Being 71, the advice of letting my front heel come up and a turned out back foot has made my swing smoother and easier. Thx Easiest Swing
Brilliant great to hear it
Hi Phil, what a brilliant swing you have. Great to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it Charlie hope it’s helping you to find your own Easiest Swing 👍

What make you think we don't under stand simple instructions pal , we, re old not stupid

I’m 64 and determined to get my name on a board at the club, one day hopefully.😊

@@Easiestswing No.matter how little I try Brian's swing is seemingly impossible to duplicate. He leftus a great gift.

@@Easiestswing thank you!
Good tips! What’s the best golf ball for seniors to improve score? (swing speed with driver is 85mph)
We took your question to our coaches and two of them suggested the Callaway Super Soft
I’m in the middle of rehab with a wrist injury, and I’m doing the La Danse du Golf all around the house. Thanks Philip and rest in peace Brian ❤

Great tip - have tried humming and keeping the tone constant but never tried Sam’s tip of whistling- next time at the range for sure!! 👌

Hi Jeff we have just one coach in the USA (in California) look him up on our website I’m certain he can help you.

Just like the Beatles, you need to make it in the States. ;)
We will do that somehow - “With a little help from our friends” 👍 😂
Same principle with irons and hybrids off ?
Absolutely works for any full swing 👍
Is this Thetford GC Phillip?
No its Northants County
Do you have any videos on fixing fat shots?
We have just put a course on the members site specifically on better ball striking and avoiding fat shots. If you were maybe considering joining perhaps this could be the deciding factor.
