I'm 69, had both knees and both hips replaced. My back is frequently sore. I'm still golfing but it can hurt to swing and distance has of course been reduced. Then, by chance, I watched your video about being relaxed during the swing plus some other tips to help with timing and tempo. I also began practicing la dance. Since then I have been hitting the ball like I'm 30 years younger, and without any pain. My drives are blasted down the middle(20-30 yds more). I wiggle before swinging, check that there's no tension, and then I trust my body to do what I want it to do. Bang, drive after drive crushed right at my target. Same improved results with all my irons. And now I also have a leg routine to practice. The change is amazing, like magic. Thank you.
Wow David! What an incredible success story you've shared! We hear this from so many of our fans around the world who discover there is in fact an 'Easier' way to play the game and swing the golf club. We are so happy you have found us, picked it up so quickly and are already seeing such huge improvements and enjoyment from your game! Keep up the great work, trust your natural abilities and enjoy the magic that is Easiest Swing!
I remember Brian demonstrating this drill and I tried it a few times but didn't stick with it. I need to get back to it. It's challenging at first but when good balance is developed I have no doubt that this will help my golf swing. Thanks!
Fantastic! Great work winning your club championship! We love hearing how Easiest Swing has positively impacted golfers around the world. Stick with the principles and you will no doubt find more golfing success! Thank you.
I bought Brian's book back in 2014 and saw the two photographs of Greg on page 105 . I never tried this because it looked goofy , how wrong I was . Thanks Sean for encouraging this movement . It improved my ball striking hundredfold . Horst , Ontario , Canada
Fantastic to hear you discovering the incredible benefits of practicing this exercise. It looks very strange on the surface, but the results speak for themselves. Keep enjoying those perfect strikes!
Brilliant! It's great to hear of your discoveries when trying out Easiest Swing! Relax, lose the tension, watch your swing get easier and your enjoyment for the game go up!
Great work! Really pleased to hear that La Danse du Golf is helping. Work towards SLX when you are able to and let us know how you get on. Expect you will be quite amazed!
This is a great drill for me. I’m a 2 handicap with plenty of “traditional” swing flaws. Here’s how I use it: I swing the legs (or left leg) going back, then pause at the top, and place my left foot back in the setup position whilst keeping my body in its SLX backswing position. This gives me a feel for the correct pelvis and upper body position at the top of the backswing. And this position becomes my backswing intention. I do something similar with the downswing; swing the legs (or right leg) trying to feel where that takes my lower and upper body. Then I try to get to that position starting the motion from a normal stance. I’ve found this drill really opens up my hips going back, and it actually stops me spinning out too early coming down. It also forces a definite shift left coming down which has stopped me from becoming stuck/under (my main full swing fault). The most interesting feeling for me is that this drill encourages a greater hip/pelvis turn going back and it somehow keeps me closed (but on my left side) coming through. When I’m doing it well I only think about my right thigh action. Anyway that’s my feedback.
Great feedback Warren we know it’s a strange exercise but we also know it works so well in creating a good turn, balance and coordination. It is so interesting to discover that it is especially low handicap golfers, scratch players and pros who recognise this. Well done and thanks for your feedback which I hope helps handicap golfers to recognise its validity.
From my experience, if you can do this drill and retain your balance until the action is complete, it really “synchronises” the arms, upper torso, and lower body … none of these components can be out of sync if you hope to do this difficult drill correctly. And then of course it forces you to perform the motion at a speed your body/balance can handle. Thanks again Easy Swing.
I've tried this without a club, and it's relatively easy. Put a golf club in my hands and I lose my balance. I have the swing caddy arriving tomorrow and I hope I can get as good as you are.
very good result from my couple of days of work out using only one of my iron. Just like to get your recommendation which swing caddy is better the 28" or 36" in your opinion.
Great to hear Tan and keep going with it, you'll be amazed at the impact it has on your swing! The shorter version 28" Hole In One is excellent if you want to practice indoors. The longer 36" version is great for outdoors or large indoor spaces, it also has a more flexible shaft which makes it very easy to swing in a rhythmical way. Most of the ESTeam carry both. They are both great, so depends where you will use them most.
I think this drill helps give you natural sequence and separation of your lower body and your upper body, especially on the downswing. So starting in the backswing you do that small forward swing at address move similar to a forward press to get things started. So then the club, arms and body swing back leading your lower body, pelvis and legs. So your body is winding up and club back and up before your lead leg moves back like a baseball pitcher. Then the key move is that with the club at the top and your weight on your right leg you step forward with your left or lead leg and as you are stepping forward you are turning your foot and hip towards the target, not placing it down with the foot perpendicular with the target line but relatively in line with the target line like a baseball pitcher or hitter does. So you are turning your hips before placing your left foot down where the hips and lower body are turning towards the target before your shoulders, arms and club. You are not stomping your left foot down to "make" your hip turn, your pelvis is turning with your lead leg off the ground stepping forward, which is a lot easier to do and more natural movement. The separation of the lower body pivoting and the upper body turning is only milliseconds but it gives you natural flow and power. As long as you have the club and shoulders turned back at the top and lower body stepping and turning forward first you will not spin out and come over the top. So you should feel the lower body stepping forward and pivoting towards the target leads and makes your upper body and club swing thru. So you should feel like you are swinging thru with your body and not with your arms and hands hitting the ball. Sorry for the rant but I guess its therapy for myself. Thanks for the great video!
Glad you liked it - there is certainly a lot in it and all you say is right but in particular it is how your own body will organise all this sequencing automatically. It’s a wonderful way to help your own subconscious learn the right way. 👍
Simply put, balance. However, if students are falling forward toward the target on the through swing then this is actually rather good. It suggests they are moving their weight forward through the swing, just perhaps slightly more than required. Thank you for the kind support of SLX.
Unfortunately after two t.i.a.'s I struggle a lot with my balance but I'll do my best to do this drill because I know this will help. 🤞Btw is there a drill who can help me improve my balance? Thanks
In our Easiest Swing Club we have a member who suffered a massive one and was paralysed head to toe. His story is inspiring as he had to learn to move and eventually walk again. Many years later he plays regularly but does La Danse du Golf 100 times a day - 50 in the morning and 50 in the evening. He even played to four recently!
Been using this ever since you showed it, don’t think Brian could do it as well as you. Just played my boy tonight over 9 holes , I’m 62 the boy is 22 i shot 1 over he shot 3 over. He laughs at me warming up doing this with my swing caddie whilst he thrashed balls in the net. There was no laughing as he went to the bar for the Guiness and a bag of cheese and onion.

In my previous SLX video a few years ago I wasn’t actually doing it correctly. I hope you can notice the difference
2 роки тому+1
Brilliant Tim! Love to hear success stories like this! It is important we help to change the golf culture that encourages no movement. People may laugh now but in a few years I would love to think this will be the new normal
It depends where you plan to practice with it. Indoors - Hole In One would be better. Outdoors or large indoor space - Swing Caddy. The flexible shaft of the SC is also great for rhythm.
Hello Sean, sorry to get off topic but I am curious about the Swing Caddie. My question is : the original version called the Swing Rite that came out in the 60’s is selling for approximately half the price of the newer version. What I don’t understand is how the club is set to the the golfer’s swing. My guess is swing and adjust out or in until it clicks. What’s your opinion and also is the newer version better, it runs at a landed cost of more than $500.00 🇨🇦
Hi Richard, no problem. The Swing Rite is similar in it's adjustment as the newer Swing Caddy and Hole In One and while it works slightly differently, it essentially does the same job. You can adjust the degree of swing speed required to make the click happen, basically adjust the difficulty, they both work in the same way here. We don't use it primarily to develop swing speed, but to achieve a good rhythmic and relaxed action through the ball impact. The biggest difference between the older version and the new is that the Swing Caddy & HOI automatically reset themselves after each click. The Swing Rite requires you to manually reset it, it's not a big job but you need to do it every time. The Swing Caddy also comes with a very flexible shaft which helps with Rhythm and the HOI is much shorter which is ideal for indoor practice. Check out www.swingimpact.com/shop-swing-trainers-golf-baseball which is our US & Canada partner. Hopefully you can get a better price from them. Hope this helps.
@@Easiestswing thanks for the quick response Sean. I checked out the link and priced out the difference. Swing Rite at $268. and Swing Caddie at $415. Definitely too much coin for the Swing Caddie. I’ll stick with Brian’s book, your videos and just practice, practice, practice.
Hi Sean, at what speed setting do you use the swing caddy in this video or when you do this drill? I tried it with 56 and the switched back to 48 - any recomendations? Cheers
Hi Frank, the speed setting isn't as important as it is to get the click to happen after impact. We typically set it at 56 but move it up and down. It is especially good to have it on a really low setting and slow your entire swing down. Really get a sense of the action required to achieve the click. Hope this helps.
My question is: is this leg movement just an exercise? Or actually something one would use on the golf course. If it is just a “drill” how does one take it into an actual swing? I also note that during the video, when an iron is used in the demo, the ball is teed up. So I am a little confused and looking for guidance. Thanks
Hi Edward, as you suggested SLX is just an exercise or swing drill if you prefer. By performing the drill correctly it ensures you complete the six basics. Transferring this into your actual golf swing requires zero conscious effort, the correct movement and awareness from completing the drill is all you are trying to sense. The ball is teed up only to make the drill easier. Hope this helps.
It may look silly, but there is a purpose behind this. After 25 years of struggling with my swing, albeit I did at one stage reach a 14 handicap, this method has transformed my game beyond what I ever thought was possible, given my advanced years.
i'm not laughing any more. After four visits to the course following watching video, my shots have straightened out immensely. Looking forward to more of your videos.
It's like magic isn't it Ron! This is the response we hear so often. It's very hard to ignore and laugh at Easiest Swing once you actually try it. Thanks again and watch out for our next videos, there's more to come!
On doing the swinging leg drill, I have a left drop foot , meaning I have only five or 10% power in my left calf , foot and ankle. Therefore I had really have no balance . suggestions.
Hi Charlie, this exercise might be just be too much at this stage and we would suggest starting with La Danse du Golf as this also helps with balance and the other 5 basics in the golf swing. Try this ua-cam.com/video/2TCK6GGScjk/v-deo.html
40 bits per second vs 40 Mbps. That is how we are wired. Yes. However when you have the ball to swing through , what's the focus or thought. Will certainly try with the swing caddy. And how do we integrate into the actual swing if I may ask. Thank you.

In the simplest terms, rhythm. Do you like to Danse?
Hello Sean, after watching this video many times, My impression of the swing legs is one that doesn’t follow the club head. i.e., your leg movement is slightly delayed in both directions. You swing reaches your full destination before your leg does. I have tried this swing, trying move the legs in unison with the club and find myself off balance. Please comment.
Hi Richard, you are absolutely correct in your observations. For the average golfer, we encourage the club head to dictate the movement of the body. Even though we advocate everything should move in unison, moving the club head first initiates the back swing with the rest of the body moving in response to the moving club head. Therefore the feet respond to the turn rather than initiating it.
@@Easiestswing thanks Sean, I appreciate that you have responded to my question which tends to be rare for me on other sites. Long live Brian’s memory and the Easiest Swing method.👍👨🦳🇨🇦
Great work trying out the drill. It takes time to master. To remain perfectly balanced you need to shift your weight correctly. Take note where you feel the weight in your foot. Hope this helps and keep up the great work!
Hi Arne. I'm still based in Mallorca and have a golf coaching holiday organised for a week 8th - 15th Feb 2023 in Cadiz, Spain. Contact us if you want more info: team@easiestswing.club
@@Easiestswing A couple people have asked me what happened but as soon as I suggest, full finish, easy swing, their eyes glaze over. I did play with one guy who knew all about it and you guys he was always in the fairway and at 145 lbs. and 68 years old he was beating everyone else. He was 1 over par after 18, from the White tees. Also, it is true, I played very well with him. In addition, on some of the shorter par 4's I am hitting 3 wood dead center, almost as far as driver. It is all about the subconscious.
Just shows there’s none so deaf as those who choose not to hear. But we are so pleased you are benefitting and great story about the 68 yr old with +1 round. Keep up the good work 👍👍
Hi Stephen, great to hear you using Easiest Swing. Sounds like you are finding some good consistency with just a couple of bad shots. What did you sense you did well on the good drives?
My Swing caddy a question that I think you can help. Do you know the Swing Caddy needs to be calibrated because I need to bring it down to 17mph for it to click. I don't think my Swing speed it that low. Or could it be a faulty unit.
Hi and thanks for your question. We would expect almost everyone to be able to achieve a click at the lower settings, but it does become progressively more difficult as you move up towards driver. Regarding your question, if it clicks on the lower settings then it is working correctly, it can often be a surprise how much speed is required to achieve a click in the higher settings. The Swing Caddy works best with a relaxed swing with loose arms and wrists. You will find the more relaxed your wrists are the easier it becomes to get a click in the higher settings. Try this first and let us know how you get on. If you are still having difficulties, please email us at esteam@easiestswing.com and we will happily help you further. Thanks.
Hi Dave, we typically use it between 100 - 120. However we recommend changing the settings up and down and learning to achieve the click beyond impact with slower and faster swings.
Season's greetings to you, Sean. Something funny but revealing. This Christmas day I was watching the film Ratatouille with my grandson. A story of a rat who becomes a chef . .. anyway, at the end of the film , during the credits, you see a rat with a golf club driving an object off the roof of a building. So what, you think. ....well this rat golfer swung his lead leg like you completely to the the right before the downswing! What an example ! Irresistible.
It looks great, but I am not sure this exercise has helped you make an effortless swing, or your already effortless swing makes your exercise look so effortlessly.
That’s a great question, but having seen Séan’s swing before he started doing this exercise nearly a decade ago I can assure you that the exercise has been the game changer

Great Sean! Keep’m coming😊
Thank you Arne! Will do!
New to the channel and 74 years old. Will take this to golf tomorrow and give it a try
Excellent Bob, so pleased you are ready to try out SLX already! Usually golfers are astonished with the results!
I started building this into my sessions. Well, way to go I’d say. Balance and coordination will improve, I hope. Thanks
Excellent! Keep it up and report back what improvements you have found.
thank v much coach, i applied it and i feel easy, low effort and beatifull result
Fantastic! keep up the great progress!
Thank you Sean. Look forward to see more using the swing caddy.

Hi Richard, you are absolutely correct in your observations. For the average golfer, we encourage the club head to dictate the movement of the body. Even though we advocate everything should move in unison, moving the club head first initiates the back swing with the rest of the body moving in response to the moving club head. Therefore the feet respond to the turn rather than initiating it.
@@Easiestswing thanks Sean, I appreciate that you have responded to my question which tends to be rare for me on other sites. Long live Brian’s memory and the Easiest Swing method.👍👨🦳🇨🇦
I noticed your foot prep work on each side splaying the toes out in excess of 30 degrees.
I tend to fall off backwards on the through swing. Foot position issue?
Great work trying out the drill. It takes time to master. To remain perfectly balanced you need to shift your weight correctly. Take note where you feel the weight in your foot. Hope this helps and keep up the great work!
Estupendo
Gracias 🙏
I Wonder: have you moved from Mallorca? Where can I Get aTwo days Course with you guys in the Spring?
Hi Arne. I'm still based in Mallorca and have a golf coaching holiday organised for a week 8th - 15th Feb 2023 in Cadiz, Spain. Contact us if you want more info: team@easiestswing.club
It is sort of like magic, ask some of my recent playing partners.
Wonderful - glad to hear it’s working for you! Have you told them your secret? 🤫
@@Easiestswing A couple people have asked me what happened but as soon as I suggest, full finish, easy swing, their eyes glaze over. I did play with one guy who knew all about it and you guys he was always in the fairway and at 145 lbs. and 68 years old he was beating everyone else. He was 1 over par after 18, from the White tees.
Also, it is true, I played very well with him. In addition, on some of the shorter par 4's I am hitting 3 wood dead center, almost as far as driver. It is all about the subconscious.
Just shows there’s none so deaf as those who choose not to hear. But we are so pleased you are benefitting and great story about the 68 yr old with +1 round. Keep up the good work 👍👍
I use the easy swing but yesterday I hook a couple of drivers then when ok again any idea?
Hi Stephen, great to hear you using Easiest Swing. Sounds like you are finding some good consistency with just a couple of bad shots. What did you sense you did well on the good drives?
Thinking about it might have rush the downswing and turn over my wrists
My Swing caddy a question that I think you can help. Do you know the Swing Caddy needs to be calibrated because I need to bring it down to 17mph for it to click. I don't think my Swing speed it that low. Or could it be a faulty unit.
Hi and thanks for your question. We would expect almost everyone to be able to achieve a click at the lower settings, but it does become progressively more difficult as you move up towards driver. Regarding your question, if it clicks on the lower settings then it is working correctly, it can often be a surprise how much speed is required to achieve a click in the higher settings. The Swing Caddy works best with a relaxed swing with loose arms and wrists. You will find the more relaxed your wrists are the easier it becomes to get a click in the higher settings. Try this first and let us know how you get on. If you are still having difficulties, please email us at esteam@easiestswing.com and we will happily help you further. Thanks.
What # do you have the swing caddy set on please?
Hi Dave, we typically use it between 100 - 120. However we recommend changing the settings up and down and learning to achieve the click beyond impact with slower and faster swings.
Tango dancers should play golf! 😅
Absolutely!!
Season's greetings to you, Sean. Something funny but revealing. This Christmas day I was watching the film Ratatouille with my grandson. A story of a rat who becomes a chef . .. anyway, at the end of the film , during the credits, you see a rat with a golf club driving an object off the roof of a building. So what, you think. ....well this rat golfer swung his lead leg like you completely to the the right before the downswing! What an example ! Irresistible.
Thanks Peter, I'll have to check it out! Seasons greetings to you and keep up the good SLX practice 👍
Feels like a club up scenario.
Sorry to hear that Brian Sparks has passed away.
Thank you Carl. He is sorely missed.
It would really be more instructive and improve the video if you would show the movements in very slow motion.
Thanks for your comment we will look into doing this on some of our future videos. 👍
@@Easiestswing Thank you very much.
Just go frame by frame .
It looks great, but I am not sure this exercise has helped you make an effortless swing, or your already effortless swing makes your exercise look so effortlessly.
That’s a great question, but having seen Séan’s swing before he started doing this exercise nearly a decade ago I can assure you that the exercise has been the game changer
Did you try it ?
@@horstludwigjakob2593 yes, I had given it a try, but found it as difficulty as did an effortless swing!
Willy wonka of golf
Sweet swings, golden skills, no Oompa Loompas! 🍫⛳
