I am Tom Saguto, PGA Member and founder of SagutoGolf. Thank you for visiting my instructional page where you can find how to get on the fast track to improving your golfing abilities. Whether you are a seasoned golfing veteran looking for a quick swing tune-up after an on-course emergency, or a beginner just looking to get the most out of your golfing experience, I am here to help you achieve your golfing goals.
My mission as your swing doctor is simple, to help you maximize your enjoyment in game of golf. Because, let’s face it, golf is a hard game.
My philosophy is wholly based on the student having a fun, meaningful experience in a frustrating and complicated game where potential lifelong golfers either quit because it is too difficult or that they experience some form of swing-related pain or discomfort. I mitigate these problems by focusing entirely on the student’s needs and goals while teaching a golf swing method that ultimately takes stress off of the common pain areas of the swing.

Good tip. I’m on the verge of single digit handy cap. Could you do a video for better players? Thanks
How's he hit with his eyes crossed
Tom, the fact that you've done this whole video with your fly open makes me love you just that little bit more.
You're a really good teacher. Keep it simple, fun, and easy to understand.
Thank you MW!
amen
Mr. Saguto, I found your tips on youtube and decided to give stack and tilt a chance. I am 69 years old, been playing since I was 10 years old. Was a 15 handicap for years. Since I retired and started playing an average of 4 times a week, I got my handicap down to 12. Then I started S&T based on your lessons available on youtube. My handicap is now 8.2. my last 5 scores are 74, 84, 74, 78, 75. The 84 was an anomaly I attributed to playing in a light rain and only my second round using S&T. I play a Jack Nicklaus Design resort course in Texas. I play it at about 5800 yards though sometimes I play the 6300 yard tees. The rounds mentioned were from the 5800 yard tees due to the ground being saturated from heavy rains (Cart Path Only) where the drives were not rolling out as normal. So, I want to thank you for posting your tips on youtube. I'm thinking about joining your instruction program but I'm on a fixed income so I want to see how much I can improve from what you post on youtube before committing the $10 per month. Thanks again for your help.
Wow - That's some fabulous playing and dramatic improvement, Ronald!! I am very glad to learn that my channel's instruction has benefited your game to such an extent. You've obviously done an excellent job digesting the lesson content, incorporating it into your swing, and taking ownership of it!!
I appreciate your consideration of my online school, and I know you would enjoy it as well as the great community atmosphere of the Members' Forum. However, I do not want you to feel compelled to join if it's going to create any type of hardship, and based on your recent results you are most definitely doing a fabulous job with the lessons here on the free side of SagutoGolf.
Thanks for your support in sharing your success, keep up the great playing, and keep having fun out there!!

@@SagutoGolf Mr. Saguto, I felt compelled to laud your instruction again. This weekend was our club championship. I played in the Senior Flight getting 5 strokes from the white tees (5800 yards). As I mentioned above, the weather was warm and wet again, providing little to no roll on the tee shots. As the lowest handicap in the flight, I was giving two strokes per round to my nearest competitor. Through 17 holes I was standing at gross 75 and he was at gross 76. As we putted out on 17 the sky opened up and play was suspended. We came back today to finish the 18th hole before playing the second round. So, teeing off on 18 I knew I needed to birdie to get even with him as I had to count on him making par. I hit a good tee shot, then a 3 hybrid down the fairway to a good layup distance for me. My third shot was 112 yards to a front pin sitting just past a false front. I pulled my 9 iron which was my 115 yard club, but with S&T it is now about 125 yards. So, I choked up one finger and hit it smooth. Weight forward, hands in, tilt, turn, and extend. I hit a sweet push draw that landed two yards past the pin and one yard to the left and sucked back to 4 feet. Drained the putt and with his par, we were tied after one round, me 79, him 81. I shot two under 34 to his 38 on the front nine. Then I started leaking oil. He parred all holes on the back nine, while I struggled with some loose shots. But I also had some bright moments. I birdied #12 from the green side bunker, but then hit a bad toe shot trying to hit a high fade with my five iron. Doubled 13 and then doubled 14. Then after 3 pars, we are on teeing off on the 18th. I'm thinking I just let this one get away but might have a chance if I can do something on 18 again and I get a little help from him. So I bang a good drive down the middle and have my 3 hybrid in hand to lay up to my 9 iron or PW distance. I then promptly topped it about 80 yards. I'm now still 195 out and he is laying 2 about 110 out. Now I need to hit my 3 hybrid 195 yards after just topping it badly. I walk up to the ball telling myself, It's the same swing for all shots, just do it like you know how to do it. Well, I made the best swing of the weekend and that ball sailed towards the right side bunker and then started drawing. It landed just over the bunker, bounds once and then rolled in the hole. Anyway, it was a great shot to lose by one stroke as Mr. Steady Eddie parred 18 to make a clean sweep of the back nine.
After this weekend, my handicap is now 7.8.
So, I was wondering does your instructional program include lessons on hitting fades with S&T and anything about the mental game for when the wheels start to come off?
This seriously helped with consistently hitting solid shots! This, making sure shoulder is tilted down, staying down and make sure other shoulder is tilted down through release. Slightly aim to right at contact. Big thanks!
Great lesson. I’ll try it this week. Thanks 👍
Tom, this video (and others you have made) changed my game. I'm 71 and have been 90-95 for years, but now my game has stepped up like never before.
I'm hitting the ball straighter and further, and this is video is the reason! Thanks and keep up the good tips!

Happy New Year.....thank you very much for all your excellent tips and your great sense of humor! Tack såååå mycket!.
Thank you Carlos! Happy New Year!
Great video Tom. Thanks a million.
I was a upper 90s ,100 golfer playing for years not getting better......September I joined your online school great and I review the basic all the time by the end of September and October I was playing mid to low 80s.golf is very fun and I'm picking up distance with out effort. I'm going to stay a member for life thanks Tom.
Thank you for sharing Garry! You are doing great work and it's paying off. Keep it up!
I haven't played in over 6 years, but found Tom's videos on UA-cam, got excited and have hit range a few times and Wow. I am now playing a baby draw, hitting balls at the target and loving it. I am still struggling with the driver, but I am making progress. A BIG thanks to Tom! Can't wait to take it to the course!
That's fabulous, Barry - I'm glad to know that my channel's instruction content is resonating well with you!!
Oftentimes when golfers are hitting everything well except for the longer clubs it can be attributed to one of the following:
1) They don't start with - or maintain - enough weight on the front side. In general with the longer clubs we should add a little more front weight load at address - more like 60/40 instead of the 55/45 prescribed for the other clubs. This forward weight should gradually increase to the top of the backswing (70/30) and build further on the downswing - approximately 80/20 halfway down, 90/10 impact, and 95/5 finish.
2) Their hips are not continuing their lateral slide through impact. This is common with the longer clubs as the wider stance means that the hips have a greater distance to travel. If the hips stop moving laterally towards the target on the downswing then their rotation takes over, changing the low point and rerouting the club. This can produce a variety of undesirable results including fat and thin contact, topped shots and popups, straight pulls, and “banana” slices.
3) They are not allowing the length of the club to dictate the backswing path and are getting too steep as a result. The shaft length of the longer clubs encourages more of an around the body backswing as established by the shaft plane at address. It may "feel" flat as you take it back along the shaft plane for the first few feet, but as long as you maintain the "weight forward, shoulder down, and hands in" components while allowing the club to work around you, it should put you in the proper position at the top so you can attack the ball from the inside.
By the way, if you'd really like to own this swing through your entire bag please consider enrolling in the SagutoGolf online school as it is one of the best golf instruction values out there. For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only learning system for the full swing and much more.

i have signed up to your website love the videos lessons good work Tom :)
Tom you are so funny and your teaching is brill. love it
Epic though bro!! Love it!
Tried this today and OMG, crispy, consistent contact with that sweet ball strike sound. Thank you.
Sweet sauce, Dan, I'm glad it worked! Share it with your friends!
Tom your swing tips are amazing!, i have been practicing the folding of the right arm and keeping my armpits closed. But what really tied everything together was your lesson with another youtuber instructor! About keeping your head still. I focused on that the whole round and had one of my best rounds of the season.
That's fantastic, Randall!! Eric's "head against the wall" tip keeps you centered and can put the entire swing on autopilot!
Thanks for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!!
Tom
Tom only Danny Maude matches your enthusiasm when instructing,both contagious.
Keep them coming crispy.
Thanks Tony - that's some great company to be mentioned with!
Tom
They both simplify and get the club moving. Top notch teachers. Talking about angles and planes and knee bending and hips moving all mostly no help. All that happens because the club swings well, the club doesn’t swing well because of those technicalities. I’m not saying technical stuff can’t help but I would imagine it’s better to make minor tweaks when you can swing it .
Tom ur the best golf instructor by far...
You are far too kind, Vito, and I'm very glad to know that my lesson content and teaching style are resonating with you and providing clarity and simplicity in the muddied, overly complicated, oft-conflicting realm of golf instruction!
Thanks so much for your message and support!!

My man! I'm signing up asap. Been a longtime fan
Awesome Travis, see you in class!
I always hit it too when my fly opens. Awesome advice 👍
Tip of the year already? LOL
this is exactly what i finally got 2 months ago and it is The Answer. I still get a bad shot here and there but as long as this is my swing thought on the backswing everything works beautifully on the downswing without thinking. Great lesson Brutha!
Thanks Wyatt - I'm glad this lesson resonated well with you!!
Keep up the great work!
Cheers,
Tom
Thank you for your golf tip it has changed my golf game and now I enjoy golf
I sincerely appreciate the kind words, Margo, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction content and style are resonating with you!!

Your fly is open my dude 😂 however, great advice 💪🏽😁🤙🏽
Thank you - can't speak for the accidental fly tho! LOL
Supposed to be watching the ball, not the balls.
You ruined this video for me 🤣😂
Well he is out in the woods.
I didn't even notice but I also don't look at a guy like that so...🤣🤣🤣
I’m a new convert to Saguto golf. After watching about a dozen of his videos here and with Eric Cogorno I joined Toms site. First practice session coming this weekend. I can’t wait!
And so we say..... Welcome to "the dark side", Chris, where the spoils of "conventional" instruction - chronic inconsistency, physical pain, and endless frustration - yield to the fruits of effortless and body-friendly enjoyment of this great game for a lifetime. 😆
I'm very glad to have you on board!!

Wow! That was extra crispy, Tom!
Have followed your instructions for a while . I already dropped 10 strokes.
Thank you and keep up the amazing drills. It works
Awesome Ahmad! Keep up the excellent work!
Yes! Repeatably!
Great video to start the new year Tom! Signed up to the school in December and making huge progress. I just need to stop myself falling back into old (bad) habits on the course sometimes :)
Happy New Year Paul - you're doing fantastic. Stay committed to the changes and your perseverance with them will reward you!
@@SagutoGolf Thanks Tom, you are inspirational and it’s working. Spent most of the afternoon in my indoor golf facility, (aka my garage:) with good results. Thanks again for your videos and support.
Tom,
Great video as always. Most entertaining, best guy on UA-cam. So focused on teaching simplicity. Your passion shows through. Question though, does keeping the fly unzipped positively affect weight transfer? Just kidding Colonel Sanders. You rock.
Thank you! I have discovered that keeping the fly open in the golf swing positively affects my swing center to keep me over the golf ball for consistently crispy contact
YES!!! No more “farting armpits!!! Gorilla Glue...who knew! Thanks again TOM for your fun and fabulous advice 👍⛳️🏌🏻♂️😊
Studied 5 lessons like a monk for years this guy explains the execution of Ben Hogan's swing better than anyone. And yes repeating crisp shots over and over. Get a Momentus swing trainer to groove it in! Heavy yellow club... Keep the instruction coming!
Thank you - more Hogan coming soon!
I watched 2 of his videos and I am sold.
Welcome to the squad, Ryan!
Saguto Golf is Team Extra-Crispy.
Hi Tom, I had a taste of crispy fried chicken and mashed potatoes and it tasted so good. In the past I would "try" to play golf but had no consistency, I tried something new each time I hit and never knew what I was doing wrong. Today I played golf and I heard the choir of angels. I had my written list of the ten golden Saguto words with me and referred to it often during the round. My score was not the best but I HIT THE BALL! better than I ever have and had two pars! When I paid for the golf I excitedly told the pro who started chatting with me that I was going to try Stack and Tilt and he looked at me all weird and said why would you do that ?? I stayed strong and told him I just had to try what I learned on line because it made sense. Needless to say, he gave me card to call him for a lesson. I start each day watching your videos and then start swinging the club in my condo, it won't be long before I put a hole in the wall or break one of my hanging pictures. Tom, for the first time I had fun on the golf course because of you and I will put lots of effort in my relationship with the ball I will not give up. You were meant to be a teacher !! Irene
That is fantastic, Irene!! (And I'm very proud of you for remaining strong in the face of that naysayer!!) I am thrilled to learn of your great ball striking, and especially the excitement and enjoyment it provided as that is really what this is all about!!
Thanks so much for sharing your success, keep it crispy, and most importantly - keep having fun out there!!

I've been a golf teaching professional for over 30 years. I began my career with this concept, I've stayed with it through my whole tenure and have never changed my story. K.I.S.S

Cheers!

Glad you're enjoying the content!!
Tom
Flying low buddy! 😂
Great video!
You need to be on the golf channel my guy! You da man!
Thank you Preston!
I hear you Tom. Played my best golf when keeping back elbow tight to my side. Even hitting draws! Have always been a devout slicer my whole life. Also a devout UA-cam golf watcher. Other teachers show what the “pros” do. This got me to raise the elbow to get maximum club head speed. Back to slicing!!! 😡 argh!!! Just want maximum consistency with minimum practice! Gotta work and family stuff all week. Coming back to the fold Tom and this time I’m staying!
Yep. This Hogan's Magic Elbow episode really helps to reinforce this as well, Ron: ua-cam.com/video/iL9WmQ7KsmE/v-deo.html
Cheers!
Tom
Enjoy your teaching, you make me smile because lately have have been doing exactly what you teach and yesterday I had one of my bests game. I bogeyed the course (+18) as you described. I was drawing the ball, at first it was scary until I saw the ball draw back to the green. I need to work on my putting. do you have a lesson on putting? i was putting the ball on in regulation except for my 3 putt

There is no miracle cure Tom but you definitely have helped me. Thank you.
I tried this with a 5 iron and dug a hole completely under the ball
You have to be the best instructor on the planet Tom.
Well I don't know about that, @DCford2020, but I sincerely appreciate the kind words and I'm very glad to know that my instruction is resonating well with you!!

OMG Tom! Following your instruction, I went from a 40 Handicap down to a 15 Handicap in two weeks by just gluing my arms to my side! Amazing! My buddies on the golf course are not only shocked by the improvement of my game but now are no longer helping me trying to find my lost balls. BING, BANG, BOOM! I have found the land of MILK and HONEY.
Bro, thanks to your videos I finally broke 90 on my home course (usually shoot 100)... shot a dang 86 yesterday!!

Tom, I found you on UA-cam about a yr ago. It was the video where you explain putting 55% of your weight n your front foot and 45% on your back foot. Blew me away! Showed my league partner, who is better than me, and he couldn’t believe the tip. Thanks!
I'm glad that lesson worked well for you and your partner. I hope you dominate your league this season!!

So close to conquering the 7 Deadly Sins. Need work on 6 and 7. Hogan arms, shoulder down and hands in have been a huge help.
Patience bmb rooting out sins and vices takes time and mortification (proper practice)
Was not getting you vids, some how notifications got turned off. Love this topic big discovery I made, at least for me was to turn the core more and let the shoulders follow. I could always turn the shoulders but it would lead to ever the top because the core had no tension so it would ruin my sequence. When you demonstrate the turn you stood up and you can see your whole core and shoulders move as one. Probably a whole video in that distinction. Look forward to you back in the notifications.
Welcome back Mark! I'm glad you enjoyed this video. I love this tip because of the fact that it reduces the amount of swing thoughts for you and also gets the entire body working in sync. No tension required in this swing.
Fantastic! Glad I stumbled upon this guy. He’s right, golf should be fun and shooting in the 90’s sucks.
Thanks Jason!! Indeed - Life is too short to play bad golf...
I hope to see you in my online school!!
Tom
Hey Tom thanks for your tips.. I never hear you talk about the hips on the downswing. Is that important on your lessons?
Thank you
Hi Jose - I do talk about the hips quite often. You'll find mention of them in some of my Hogan videos that are in this playlist - ua-cam.com/play/PLV62KxT7Mp7IyNDRp0hZK1F1OScdXx-u1.html - and you may find more in this playlist of my downswing-related videos - ua-cam.com/play/PLV62KxT7Mp7Jxi814RQddJx3wkHqxqhio.html
Tom
Best guy out here for the amateur golfer. This method almost automatically fixes my worst habit of not keeping my weight forward and sliding.That’s why I can go from shooting 39 on the front to 49 on the back
Ghosts of swings past do not go away without a fight, Bob - especially those pesky demons that make us want to shift into the trail side and/or lift our arms! I'm very glad to learn that this lesson is helping you win this battle, and I look forward to you putting a couple of 39's together in the same round!!
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!
Tom
I love it when he says Crispy 👍🏻
I hate it when he says crispy. Irritates the living shit out of me😆
@@actionjackson9195 well am sure you’ll get over it lol
Speaking of bad habits, not checking the ole fly on the trousers can lead to drawing the wrong balls. On a brighter note I am a member on Tom’s Web School didn’t play golf for 18 yrs came back May 20 and currently HC16 he is worth listening too
LOL!! Thanks for that "lesson", Wayne!!
By the way, with regard to the school, a recent survey of SagutoGolf online school members garnered a statistically significant return of 182 responses with the following outcome: Upon enrolling in the online school, the average 18-hole score among all respondents was 92. Since being in the school these same students now report an average 18-hole score of 82. That’s a full 10-stroke improvement - along with the gratification and joy that goes with it!
Wayne - I know you get it. But I'm just curious - at just $10 US/month or $99 US/year, what is everyone else waiting for???
Cheers!
Tom
Good stuff, Tom. I had gotten so desperate that I even tried Moe Norman's swing. Now, I have cut 8 strokes off my game in the first two months.
That's fabulous, Chris!! I'm very glad to know that you are benefiting from my instruction!!
Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!!

I just wAtched yr video on tilting. Well done! Can you tie in the tilt ( or bend) towards the club? 🤓
Glad you enjoyed it!
Not sure I understand the question, but here's a link to my FREE mini-course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker” in case you’re interested in learning about the swing in a more structured manner: go.saguto.golf/

Ah you have been looking at Moe Norman's swing! Well done as this swing is the future swing for consistency, Just take a look at Bryson! He has took Moe's swing to another level! Good to see you as an instructor showing those out here who some that have never heard about Moe and his consistency ball striking! I have not tuned into your blogs for a while Tom, so good to watch your crazy behaviour - In a good sense Tom! Many thanks Mate, but reading a comment by a viewer asking - when are we going to see you playing on a full golf course - I agree with him - let's be having you showing us how good you are! That would b cool!
Hey Alan, thank you for the kind words and for tuning back into my channel! There are some similarities between Moe and I but I would say we're more different than we are similar. I do LOVE Moe's connected swing and straight arms with a centered pivot. That's a win-win.
FYI:My work schedule is quite busy and you'll be seeing me on the course soon. I love making those VLOGS but they take a ton of time to make.
Without a doubt best instructor on UA-cam
You're far too kind, Bob, but thanks so much for your kind words and support!!
Tom
Great tip Tom. Does this work on the Driver?
Thank you DZL, yes it works for EVERYTHING!
Years ago - in the days before UA-cam - I saw a lesson in Golf Digest about swinging with a towel under both armpit. It's essentially the same thing as seen here. Plus it will keep your pits drier on those really hot days after your Right Guard has failed.
Yes indeed, Otto Man!! And here in these coastal SC summers the Right Guard fails early and often!... 😎
THANKS , THANKS,THANKS!!!!!! Down from Argentina I'm thanking you for this wonderful video.
Never so true "the Land of milk and Honey" key. I follow your videos since four months, and my golf had changed for better
Again THANKS , THANKS,THANKS!!!!!!
Thank you Sebastian! Keep up the great work!
This has worked for me. I'm grateful because I had been watching Star Trek when the Borg nicked Jean Luc and I was plum riled! I was able to smash a few 6 irons off the practice mat!
I am Locutus of Golf. Resistance is futile....... 😆
I'm glad this has performed well for you, Geof. Keep on launching those photon torpedoes!!
Hope they will beam me up when I launch one in the river!
Tom is the best thing ever to happen for golf 20 yrs of misery
until Tom opened the door of a
solid repeatable swing Just tune in and listen and he is a Ben Hogan fan, what else do you need to know
Sense of humor makes it fun!!!
FUNNY STRESS FREE PRESENTATION BUT SERIOUS INSIGHT WHICH I AM GOING TO TRY
Thanks Mervyn - I hope it helps you!!
Tom
Awesome 👍
If you keep commenting like this on various videos, Kyle, I'm going to think that you're binge-watching me.......😆
I'm glad you're enjoying the lesson content. I hope it helps you!

Hi Tom continue to love your free videos. Just wondering: Do you have any presentations about the ideal impact zone on your premium membership? Also would love to see an advertisement of what we could expect if we signed up.Cheers
Will let Tom give more details but in my opinion it's worth it. Step by step instruction plus access to Tom's video lessons which has been a big help to me.
Hey Thomas, it looks like I responded to your other comment earlier. I think you joined the school but for anyone else looking for a brief summary of what's included. Check this video out: ua-cam.com/video/PwWIJ0fpydc/v-deo.html
I have wandered into this swing and played well for long stretches. But in golf, things often go wrong. When I tried to fix my swing, I'd try to follow traditional advice. It never worked. I'm following his advice and really enjoying the game again. He's a great instructor.
I truly appreciate your kind words with regard to this swing style, Michael, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction style is resonating with you!!
Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!
Tom
Hey Tom, Do you have any of your skynyrd videos posted anywhere or is there anyway of getting them?
Yes, I currently have some of them in my guitar school here - bit.ly/39eogbp
Okay Tom, your setup over the ball and ready to make your swing. What do you do to initiate that swing? Forward press, knee flex? I don't really have anything and sometimes feel like I'm almost Frozen.
Try this video - it helps you get a sense of what I like to think - ua-cam.com/video/GIT-MoKoMnw/v-deo.html
I like your taking" the lipstick off the pig", approach.
You're videos are very entertaining 🙌😆😆
Thanks Jim!! I'm very glad to know that you are enjoying my content!!
Tom
Tom, this is my favorite SG video. You should use this as your model. The humor really sets the right tone, and tou remember the stuff better when playing! Gorilla glue!! One remembers that m better than " adopt a posture in which the arms are adjacent to the torso" etc. etc. This is your Mona Lisa. The beginning ... I laugh every time
My "Mona Lisa"?? LOL!! I don't know what Da Vinci would have to say about that, Justin, but I'm glad to know that the Gorilla Glue episode has "adhered" well to your swing!! 😂😂
Cheers!
Tom
@@SagutoGolf Yes, it really stuck with me ; ) * I used to have a Moe Norman/Decheambeau-like swing, so gluing those arms in is a big challenge for me. It's a huge change. * When I stick them in properly, the feeling as you say, is totally different, and I start to hit those draws...
If what we were doing previously was not satisfactory to us, then "different" is probably a good thing (even if a little bit of skin peels off along with that Gorilla Glue...😎)
@@SagutoGolf As you say, "if it doesn't feel weird, you're not doing it right" for golfers coming over from more standard drop-and-chop swings. * If only I'd learned this when I was a kid!!! In that video you've got with the kid learning your swing, I salivate with envy ...
Tried this today and it did wonders thank you sir!!
My pleasure - I'm glad this lesson worked well for you!!
This video is amaizing Change my life of golfer
I'm glad this lesson resonated well with you, Hector! Nice job incorporating it into your swing so quickly!
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!
Tom
In the one plane swing....one-two punch. Bing, bang, boom. 4 horseman of the apocalypse, and a partridge in a pear tree.
you are right
Hahaha Great video! Can’t wait to try this technique…… No more arm farts!!!
Well, to be clear, Russell, we can - and should - still enjoy a good arm fart at an opportune moment - just not in our golf swing...🤣🤣🤣
Genius
Tom, when you do this, are you doing this in conjunction with weight on your left and a straight trail leg as instructed in other videos?
Nothing changes in those regards, Danny - it's all part of the swing system. I just can't touch on all the components in one video as it would be an information overload. Beyond that, I do my best to convey multiple “feels” or thoughts throughout the swing wherever possible because we're all different physiologically and psychologically, and something that resonates effectively with one golfer may not necessarily work for another. However, no matter the variety of suggested feels/thoughts offered for a particular element of the swing, they are all directed at getting different golfers to achieve the desired positions, motions, and ball striking results. This is one reason is why the comprehensive, structured, sequential learning platform of my online school is so effective, and why so many folks across the globe are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result. The lessons and drills provide the guidelines and set the boundaries, while allowing ample leeway for each individual golfer to infuse and exercise their own uniqueness. Here's a link if you would like to know more about it - saguto.golf - and here's a link to my free mini-course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker” if you’re interested in checking it out: go.saguto.golf/

Please correct me if I'm wrong but haven't you done a video advocating for the club shallowing move on the downswing? I.e. dropping it on the top of swing before starting the downswing.
I'm quite certain there's some content on shallowing here in my Downswing playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLV62KxT7Mp7Jxi814RQddJx3wkHqxqhio.html
Beyond that it is important to understand that the videos, lessons, and drills on this free channel - while fully aligned with the swing method I teach - address a variety of topics, issues, feels, and common flaws/fixes from one episode to the next. They are certainly not intended to be taken as a sequential learning platform like the structured curriculum of my online school, which I strongly recommend to anyone who truly wishes to get on the proper path towards learning and owning this swing. For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only system for the full swing, the short game, and much more. The school's intuitive course layout greatly simplifies the entire process through succinct, step-by-step videos, and I'm regularly adding new content. This will really put you on the fast track towards learning everything in a well-organized, self-guided fashion.

Cheers!

This man speaks sense!
Thank you Malc!
Tom, I have tried the single plane swing as taught by Singleplane company, but it hasn't helped . They teach single, but in reality it's 2 plane. I just saw your vieo on take it back, deliver it back....I think yours is truly the single plane idea as Moe Norman saw it in his head!
Thanks for your comment, Gary!
The Stack and Tilt swing I teach is definitely different from the "single plane" version and for this reason I do not recommend crisscrossing between the two methods as it would certainly lend itself to confusion. This should not be construed as a knock against this style of instruction; it's simply that the components of this swing style - as you have discovered through your research and experience - are not compatible with S&T, and thus my best suggestion to those who are weighing these two methods is to choose one or the other, but not both!
Since your due diligence seems to be leading you towards the swing method taught here, I'd like for you to consider enrolling in the SagutoGolf online school. For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only system for the full swing, the short game, and much more. The school's intuitive course curriculum greatly simplifies the entire process through succinct, step-by-step videos, and I'm regularly adding new content. This will really put you on the fast track towards learning everything in a well-organized, self-guided fashion. There's even a members' forum where you can ask me specific swing-related questions and suggest new content ideas, plus you'll also have access to all exclusive "Crispier Than KFC Club" UA-cam channel members' content at no additional charge.

On point
Thank you Tony!
S.G. Are you thinking the same motion/approach for chipping?
There's no reason why one could not utilize this swing methodology as a basic framework for their chipping technique. In fact, the best way to ingrain the full swing motion is to do it incrementally beginning with chips and then moving on to punch shots, pitches, half swings, and so forth.
I adopted this swing method for playing those low punch shots out of trouble back on to the fairway as I was really inconsistent and flicking wrists at the ball. When I realised that a more connected arm/body swing with no conscious hand action gave me better contact I decided to use in full swing and made a big improvement.
I stopped the arm farts several years ago and it really improved my game
It's still good to do them occasionally.......randomly.......when your opponents are teeing off......😂😂😂
@@SagutoGolf 👍🥱😂🤣 that is FUNNY
Does the white belt help?
