ABOUT ALEX AND THE ART OF SIMPLE GOLF
-----------------------
Golf wins in the complication department. No other sport boasts the amount of gadgets, swing fixes, variations of balls, clubs, tees, courses, not to mention weather!, however, it is not as difficult as you have been led to believe.
Or at the very least as complicated and frustrating as the golf industry has you made you you think.
The Art of Simple Golf was born when confusion overruled the joy of golf. - Спорт
Alex, it is late on a Saturday night. I am a 74 year old male who has some back issues and struggles to get swing speeds with my nine iron above 65mph. This afternoon I was talking to my friend, a PGA Master Professional, about my lack of swing speed. He knows my swing very well and told me, again, I was losing leverage during the down swing, mostly in my wrist set. He told me before about flaring out my back toe which didn't help that much. I watched your presentation here and heard the technique of pulling the back leg back a little to give oneself more clearance. I jumped up and went to my little "indoor range", set up my swing radar and started practicing the swing with those adjustments. The very first thing I noticed was a definite improvement in the the swoosh sound being more in front of the ball and much more distinctive. After about 10 practice swings I turned on the radar. Swing speed jumped 10-15 mph with about 20% less effort(it got to 83 twice)! That made me very happy. Of course it didn't happen on every swing but the more I practiced the technique the more often it happened. Now, I have to take it to an outdoor range and see what the real results are, but I am very optimistic I will like the new yardage and hope it will carryover to my other clubs. Thank you. And, yes, I will mention the back foot back factor to my pro.
This is very nice to hear. More speed - less feeling of forced effort. Wonderful!
Keep going and yes indeed, use things that work for you and don’t always apply what you are told. Results and feelings are yours
A follow up report. I went to the range today eager to put the technique to a real test with full swings and real golf balls and real flight patterns. I am happy to report there was an improvement however inconsistent...it is new you know. I still had a tendency to hold on to the club through the impact zone resulting in pushes. I don't feel like I am releasing the club as well as I did last night at the indoor range with electronic numbers. I will say, happily, when I did strike the ball properly, I was one to one and half clubs longer. So, there is hope. The trick is practicing. The old saying "Practice makes perfect" is a lie. Practice makes permanent...perfect practice makes perfect.
@@golferiam6533 just make sure your set up is good and allow the release/straightening with confidence too
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf is
I think this is probably temporary. the key is how you allowed the club to stop and stay in the same position in the backswing because you felt less stress, due to a larger hip turn. key on that!
Your videos have done more for my golf process. You solved my Driver woes, with this simplified driver swing. Thank you!
Wonderful to hear that Bert. Thanks for sharing and I’m glad you’re with us ! 🏌️♂️🏆👍
Hi Alex, I am 67 years old from Malaysia. I watched your video for the first time today and that's after watching many many other guys out there over many months. You are the only person out there who mentioned about brushing the golf ball like it's done in tennis. Made a whole lot of logic. Can't wait to go out to the range and try it as I have always been smacking the ball flush with no distance.
Hi to you in Malaysia. Spent a few weeks there many years ago. KL, Penang.. great place.
Oh and let us know how it goes!
I love the videos you present and I enjoy hearing older players comments after trying your techniques. Thanks for the great instructions
Very kind to say and glad you are with us!
Thank you Alex, I'm 64 and played yesterday using your tip regarding slightly turning out the right foot, what a difference it made! It just felt right and I hit more straight drives than I ever have! Great tip 😀
Alex! I like the right foot flared, right leg back on the backswing to gain more width. Also like the idea of allowing gravity take over on the downswing and letting the club do what it is designed to do without our manipulating it. Excellent video for the "experienced golfer."
Well that's super to hear!
Alex...
Very simple and easy to understand. I always seem to start out my season doing what you have illustrated but as the season goes on I tend to start forcing my drives. I am 68 and really want to focus on what you have offered for advice. THANK YOU!
Great video. Yes I've been told to wait for it.
Great advice. Tried it and it works well for me. Stance change worked well for 3 wood, hybrid and longer irons.
Great to hear!
Love this thanks Alex. I'm not a senior golfer but someone with back and knee issues I'm trying to smoothen my swing without losing distance. Think this will help 👍🏻
Yeh that’s the key.. less strain only helps
Thanks for articulating that clear explanation. You are a great teacher!
You're very welcome and much appreciated!
Very detailed and simple explanations like your video on coiling rather than turning. Coil is a word that suggests power better than turn. In addition I love your explanation of the split hands drill because it slows the arms up and allows the body and arms to synch, extend and the wrists to unhinge naturally. Just like the name of your series, it's the art of simplicity. These two videos are the best you've ever made. Please make many more!
Why thank you and really appreciate the feedback. I will be bringing more that’s for sure;)
Best instructor on You tube by miles Alex! Your explanations on ALL your blogs are easy to try out as you keep it simple and to the point! I - even at 70 years of age have always tried to hit the wee ball 300 yards off the tee and am sure many at my age have tried this throughout their golfing years! This past week I have created a shorter backswing with no white knuckles showing and just insuring I swing with the hips first towards my intended target with arms and torso following behind! We old guy's never had video tuition in our day's, so we are late learners in Finding a rare nugget like you who has taken and given thought for us old yins! I take my hat off to you Sir! Thank you ever so much Alex! Stay safe !
Very kind of you to say so Alan! Delighted to hear you’ve got the results you wanted so far 😄 let’s keep at it and I’m sure we can improve distances and the other areas to play your best and have the fun!
Thanks Alex. WOrks very well for me! Rgds
Brilliant video. Simple and clear. Thank you.
That’s the goal! Hope this and others we have help you . Keep at it :) Thanks !
I just discovered AOSG and really like what you've been saying. I'm an 80 y/o golfer who shoots anywhere between 79 to 99 (this season) on any given day. I'm still trying to regain some of my lost distance and tend to swing too hard and get the inconsistent results that you spoke of. This swing tip is so simple and I can't wait to try it in the backyard, the range, and on the course. Thanks for a great video - not too complicated but good simple advice.
Well we are happy you are here now :)
That’s the goal…er us know once you try it and we have other lessons that should be very useful for you too. Here on UA-cam or in our club . Cheers!
Very educational. Simple yet easy to follow. Thank you.
No. Thank you :) hope it helps you specifically!
Going to try this tomorrow. Looks like an interesting swing thought to keep in my head.
Have fun and let us know how it goes
Great video! I am 71 and have struggled for years with coming over the top and hitting at the ball. I took a video of my swing 2 days ago and was horrified watching it. I started swinging a club in the livingroom while watching your video and amazed how free the swing felt doing what you said to do. Going to the range later to start working on this. Thank you for making this video.
That's great ! You got to let us know how the first session goes
I’ll give it a try, thanks!
Unbelievable you have described my swing totally. I’m 79 and no matter how hard I try to swing faster I still can’t increase my swing speed or distance. Thank you for this very informative video. Hopefully I can correct my swing and improve my results by follow your instructions
You can do it! Glad you are here and keep us posted!
Wow. I’m 78 and I wish I had seen this video when it came out a year ago. I played today with this new swing and nailed it.
Excellent and well done! Never too late though!
Loved the lesson ..
Delighted to hear that
What great videos, simple tweaks, but so affective. 12 handicapper in my late 60s now down to single figure just by simple changes and thought processes.;thank you 😊 Steve

This is really good and easy tips to improve the upswing and down swing and speed of club head . Thank you very much !
That’s the goal! Hope it helps you
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf yes thank you very much
Great teaching!
Thanks and hope you this and other lessons here help
Perfect tips thancks!!
Happy to help!
Great stuff Alex ezy to understand
Cheers!
Excellent , very clear and slow Explantation. Thank you very much 🙏👍
Thanks!🏌️
Alex, I definitely fall under the category of rushing the downswing. It seems that my mind tells me "OK, you're at the top of the backswing so let it rip". I feel that this is the only way to increase my club head speed. A day or two after watching this video I decided to go to a heated outdoor range (it's January and I live in Wisconsin so it's quite cold) and just work on flow and smoothness in my swing while trying very hard to control that top of the backswing anxiety. I was surprised that my driving distance actually increased on average by 16 yards. The swing felt so effortless and I could actually feel the weight and mass of the driver head as I released the club. Incidentally, my swing speed went up about 3 mph. Thanks for the great lesson, it really does work quite well when I control my anxiety to want to mash the ball from the top down. I have to convince myself that the swing is a sequence in it's entirety rather than just from the top down, this was the key discovery for me. Smooth is fast. Thanks again!
Exactly the goal! Very happy to hear you tested it and it really can be a general game changer. Keep at it and I’m sure we can help you progress further .. here or on our website/programs.
Keep at it ;)
Great video.
Thanks Adam :)
Thank you so much for the tip on the right foot and shallow angle 👍🏽.
More than welcome and hope it’s helped!! sorry for slow reply too ⛳️
Great info!!
👌good to hear!
Really excellent descriptions here, 63 and still have around 95-98 mph club head speed. My speed has dropped slowly the past several years, been working on exactly what your describing on my own. Certainly not with the clarity of intent and result that your describing so well. Makes many things click, can’t wait to hit some balls and play today. Well done!
Great and glad it’s resonated! Please let us know how it goes 🏌️♂️👍
Fantastic video.
Thank you very much and hope it helps you 💪⛳️
Fantastic illustration.
Thank you! Cheers!
Yes, coming over the top, rushing the down swing, hitting at the ball all sound very familiar to me. Thanks for this great, insightful video. Keep up the good work
Sorry I missed this, try and reply ASAP .. appreciate the support and hope your golf is going great
Hi Alex just watched your driver for seniors video from 2 years ago, looks like just what I'm looking for , it's a mental thing as much as anything for me as I do try to hit it that bit harder with Driver, off to the Driving range hopefully keeping my swing smooth and simple
Many Thanks - Garry B in Manchester
Thank you for a very helpful video.
I am 79 years old, driver swing speed 65 mph , carry 137 yards, with a handicap of 20.
I will follow your advice.
I wager it will help :) 👍💪
I worked all that out for myself - but it took me 20 years! Great video that I wish I had watched several years ago. Thanks
Well I’m happy you got there and sorry I didn’t have it before :) 👍🏌️♂️
Great advice thank you for the help
Happy to help! 💪🏌️♂️
Great video!
Glad you liked it and it’s what you were looking for
i am 80 now and i have been searching for this for years thanx a million
Well I’m glad you found it now ;)
Thank you so much Alex
More than welcome!
I am senior casual golfer, Yes, I usually have the feel of rush down from the top of my backswing, and when I accidentally put my right foot a little bit forward ahead of my left foot, the ball went all over the place ( many times way to the left side), .... your tutorial seems very natural and easier for my body, I tried it on my backyard (just swinging without the ball) and will surely try it on the golf course, thank you very much for this great vid
That's the goal! Thanks for the background and I do think by the sounds of it, that this approach, along with some other minor tweaks we share here could help a great deal. Cheers!
Great information !! Finally feel I'm going in the right direction. I'm 72 get your teaching better than anyone else..
That’s wonderful to hear. Keep at it and check out other lessons here and resources on the website too
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf aaa
excellent !!!!
🏌️♂️👍
great video
Cheers!
You are the first instructor that I have ever seen that seems to have nailed my issues straight away. Not sure if you can fix me, but I am impressed (-:
At 80 you have covered the areas I need to focus on. I do watch every video you make and you have given me a much improved swing. Please keep doing what you are doing! Best regards
I most certainly will ! Thanks for being with us and keep at it :)
Thanks!
You bet!
Great video. After having back surgery and getting older I can't wait to try this on the golf course. I practiced and it felt so much better. 😊
This type of method has helped so many folks with limited mobility or needed modifications
your amazing...love you lessons and your sand lesson too
Great lesson!! Definitely rush at the top!!
Glad you liked it! It’s amazing when you smooth it out what can happen
Yes i rush my downswing big time , so this seems like it could be my life saver please.please. please....cheers Alex great tips
You got it! How’s it going!? 🏌️♂️👍
Love it!
So glad!
Great tips, I definitely feel like I get more jumpy T the ball. Looking forward to trying this out this weekend.
How did it go? 🏌️♂️
Thanks, I gave your tips a try and hit
“ straighter and with good distance”. At 65 ,my mind wanted to muscle the shots.
The 10 o’clock take back was more than enough to get a 225 - 250 yd drive. Trusting the weight of the club proves to be the key to better golf, for me. Great video, thanks!🏌🏻♂️🎯
Keep it up
"Brilliant " love it, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Great instructions ,wlI try it out next time I play and will let you know how it went.
Please do!
Thank you! I'm 74 and playing in two tournaments this coming week. I have been trying to strong arm it but this will work better for me.🙂
I’m gonna give this a go this weekend 👍🏽
Let us know how it goes
Awesome video
Hope it helps!!
Great show bro 🚩🚩🚩💯💯💯👍👍👍 Les from Perth WA 👀👀👀
Thanks les !
Very nice. I like that you mention Harvey Penick….my favourite! Your instruction is worth trying. At 62 I’m getting a bit stiff. I have achieved better swing speeds slightly differently. I allow my hips to turn a little more by letting my left foot come off the ground so that I can get behind the ball. This has given me phenomenal results with my woods….I use a 3 wood to a 13 wood 😂. But I’m still trying to hit to hard with my driver with sometimes poor results. Let me try your method. Thanks Alex.
Please do give it a try and let us know how you get on. We have many lessons and even complete programs for golfers who are a little more experienced in life 🏆🏌️♂️
this is wonderful
Glad to hear it!
This is some great advice
Why thank you and hope this and other lessons on here and website help you
As a 72 year old man, I love your effortless golf swing to gain more distance at my age.
Yes, I am that person who in consistently rushing his downswing trying to get more distance.
This instructional video is very helpful and I will begin doing the 2 steps drill at the dome(indoor range) tomorrow. 🙂👍
Excellent to hear it resonated Hohn. Hope this helps and let us know how it goes 👍🏌️♂️
My swing speed went from 66nog it 81mph!!!! That’s my first time trying this, my goal, 90mph! I’m 74 years young! THANKYOU so much!!!!!
Very well done Sir! Keep at it:)
Brilliant, makes it look so much more smooth, I will try this in the morning 👍
That’s the intention. Let us know how it goes🏌️♂️💪
Well, it works !! I’ve hit 220 today with the driver, usually around 180, you are a magician 👌
@@garyfitzsimons3741 excellent to hear! Well done and keep at it🏌️♂️💪
Excelent class
Cheers!
Hello Alex, I'm going to try this at the driving range today. At 65, this may be the key to better driving. Thank you
It will help for sure. Just test it out and if you can get through the ball well keep at it
Simple but excellent
Why thank you! Hope it helps!
Just found this site. Very impressed with your method. I have optishot in my house like yours so off to try this now. I excepted the fact that at 71 I have lost distance but with a smother swing like you have maybe it will help with the aches and pains after 18 holes. Thank you and looking forward to more senior lessons from you
I’m sure this and others we have will help you greatly
Thanks for the video! I’m 60 and have been trying to work through these issues. I currently hit 200 yards w my 4 hybrid… before ? 230 !!! I’ll try this technique on my next outing! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 thanks again…
Let us know how you get on my friend!
I've been turning my shoulder to the left this entire time. Thanks for the tip!
That can work... if at the right time.
I needed to make a change in my game. This video instruction has helped out tremendously. 54 yrs old and can’t do it the way I once did. Many Thanks and Respect from America.
That’s great to hear and thanks for coming back to share
Excellent video. 77 years old and hitting hit over 260 after video! Simple swing!! Good Job..
Good to hear you like it and it resonated!! And well done!

Alex thanks for the video so easy to warch and easy to understand , following a triple AAA open surgery couple of years ago been struggling in the mind and on the course cannot wait to test this out, l practice in my garden and then take it to the course....thanks for your common sense approach will let you know how l get on cheers Jeff.
Sorry for late reply! I’m sorry to hear you e had some struggles but glad you’re with is. Hope it’s helped!
