- Eureka golf swing is a winner for many golfers. Compression, draw, solid, pure, controlled are just some of the words I've been told.
Thanks to everyone who has been in touch regarding their experience using my Eureka swing technique.
This video highlights some of the feedback players have given and I go in depth with the two most successful elements of the motion.
Grab a club, and create the motion while watching this video.

Thanks Steve. Good humor and excellent instruction. 70 years old and striking ball better than ever
I have, evidently, been using some of the Eureka principles this Spring to help my aging body get hips through the swing. Early on, I’ve seen a gradual, but noticeable improvement and my body is less “torsioned out”. A nice explanatory video, thank you.
I am a senior golfer with a persistent left foot injury. Yesterday after about 20 minutes trying this method on the range. I played a round using it on every shot. The decreased twisting of my left foot ankle and knee was incredible, and actually finished the round without my usual pain. It also meant that I was completing my swing properly, getting my chest facing the target. My strike was more consistent, with good direction and mostly a slight draw. According to my Zepp, my club head speed was on average 5mph faster than ever. My driver distance a was noticeably longer and the sound off the driver face was one I have never heard before. AMAZING!!
Tried the swing for first time today and shot 77!!!!
This is simply brilliant. I tried this with every club in bag and the improved striking was immediate. Before I did this I was hitting pulls and heavy shots and now all of a sudden the strikes are pure. No other changes. I wondered what the fix would be because I thought mechanically my swing was sound. A minor tweak to feet left and boom! Thanks so much!
Do you intentionally lose the tension between upper left arm and left pec after impact to allow the left arm to follow the target line?
Having suffered from arthritis and my second hip replacement last year, I can honestly say that the Eureka method has saved my game. The open hips creates the space to win back rotation through the ball and getting the belt buckle to face the target. An arms dominated swing has been replaced by a rotational swing - ball speed up, the right side of the course removed, handicap beginning to move back in the right direction. Thank you so much for extending my golfing enjoyment!!
Can’t wait to give Eureka a try Steve! Played 18 on Monday using thumbs up, thumbs down. Worked very well! No wondering where hands should be for sure. Thanks Steve! Well done
This is basically The Tom Lehman Golf Swing - one of the purest hitters of the golf ball ever - and you might argue, it is he who lay the groundwork for the next generation type of golf swings we are seeing from long and strong golfers like DJ & Koepka. While Lehman played a draw, just as your video shows, DJ & Koepka play hold off fades because they don't need the distance - but all 3 golfers play with a club face that, in the old days, would be considered shut, but are really being squared to their back & swing plane as early as possible so that can rotate as fast as possible through impact for power and not have to worry about squaring the clubface late during impact that generates erratic shot shapes. If you take this same setup and add check points for having the club's toe down (square to your tilted spine) at first shaft parallel and then again on the downswing at shaft parallel you can basically forever rid yourself of the weak slice.
My only comment about standing that open for less flexible older golfers is the real potential of dramatically reducing hip turn on the backswing to generate needed power - but as a practice drill, replicating Tom Lehman's Swing can only be a good thing
Just used the eureka method and am hitting the ball ore solid and much longer with what seems like little effort. I’m 75 and feel reborn. Thanks for revealing this 3 cane method. By the way Steve, you are one funny guy, really appreciate your wit. Don
I have been looking for a swing that was duplicatable with consistent results for a long long time. This has absolutely changed everything for me. I’ve never hit so straight and long and played so well. Finally found it. Thank you!! Eureka is right!!
Thanks for the refresher video Steve, watched it yesterday then shot my best score in while!! In fact since I'd forgotten to use Eureka, around a month ago 🙄 I'm a scatterbrained golfer who keeps forgetting what he should be doing!! Thanks again Steve.
Neil.
Neil Stableford good stuff Neil. Well done 👍🧠
Steve I have been practicing your swing method for 3 months and over the last 4 weeks I made 2 holes in one. Awesome ball contact and direction.
I have been practicing this pretty hard and seem to be smashing it at the range. Playing in a little tourney on Saturday, so looking forward to it. I have noticed that making sure my left wrist is flat, or slightly bowed, at impact, ties the whole thing together. Thanks...Steve!
Watching in 2021. I've been playing for 35 years. Over the winter worked hard with instruction and practice. Began the spring playing off of a 5 index. Primarily because at times swinging the driver was my Achilles. I'd been struggling for about a month or so and had been a follower of Steve and had seen eureka when he first started with it. He's gone very in depth about how it works with the body. I don't need to think about that on the course. I recently made the switch to this setup and swing and it works 100%. It allows for a free, powerful and effortless swing. I only wish I would have started this 3 years ago. I was getting to the point where I considered quitting golf because I couldn't correct the swing issues and I love the game. This is a complete game changer and has reinvigorated my love for golf. All I can say to anyone on the fence is take it to the range and give it a try. And Steve, if you happen to see this, thank you very much.
You’re very welcome Jason. Thanks for your kind words and keep up the good work.👏🏻👏🏻👍
Its certainly been an eureka moment for me. I’ve played golf for over 40 years and like most mid- hcp golfers, struggled with the ‘over the top move’. Practised the eureka swing in the garden yesterday before playing my best round of golf for months. Many thanks Steve, keep them coming👏
Went to the driving range before work today. Tried out your eureka method. It works! Balls had a nice draw. Not as good with driver but irons were a definite improvement over my old swing. Thanks Steve!
David Smyle for driver, I have a playlist of Eureka techniques on my channel. All the answers are there👍👍
Ball position with driver?... play around with it.
This lockdown iv took an opportunity to fine tune, started playing with an open stance because I struggle opening/turning my hips hence get gloopy as body stalls. Hitting out of an open stance I naturally turn hips easier and more naturally better strike and low point. Funnily thou I was watching a video on Rory Mcilroy the other day and he said he opens his stance with drive as it helps pre set his impact position 😊😊
*flippy
Eureka has fixed my hip-sliding, chicken-winging, wrist-breaking, weak-assed homemade golf swing. Now I'm connected and solid thru impact! Amazing! Thanks Steve!
Tim Caldwell great Tim. Keep at it✅
I tried it tonight at the local sim. Worked great. I did have to stand 50% less open to hit it clean for me but wow I've never hit it so straight and it added yards. Cheers Steve.
all this makes so much sense excellent Steve .... love how you complement yourself on shots ' class'
Steve you are a golf genius, went to the range yesterday and worked with this. my swing felt so natural and even the course pro who was watching says "well I can't get you hit the ball any better!" Great technique reminds me of watching Trevino swing.
Thanks. Have you visited www.eurekagolfswing.com
Another great informational video Steve. I am fascinated by the eureka swing concept
BIG OGGIE GOLF cheers mate!👍
Steve you have so much content it takes as many as 5 views to get it all in. 2 things turned into a rapsody of information. Awesome as usual. I am relating to your feels. Jim B
Eureka method ----beautifully aligns in some areas with Lee Trevino's Straight Edge swing!
this method seems to help my dodgy back Steve many thanks
Hey Steve, could you do a vid on how you would adjust your aim on course when you have a ball lie above or below your feet. What adjustments would you make if you had to hit a fade or slice? Cheers
I wish I knew this before, the result is amazing, thanks Steve.
If watched Tom Lehman play during career on PGA tour, proof on concept certainly evident👍🏻
THANKS LARRY!
Thanks for these Eureka videos,i have always had a problem hitting draws until you posted these. I still mostly play a high cut just because of the control,but i now can hit the Eureka draw when i need to get to a left pin or around a dog leg.It has helped my game a great deal!
Interesting method , will try it out. Thanks Steve
That is absolutely brilliant simple science love it , i’m now going in my gym to give it a whirl 👍🏼🏌🏼♂️
Go for it Dave!
Fantastic!!!
Many thanks!
Giving it a go this weekend...thanks Steve
Hi Steve great video's mate , been using Eureka for a couple of months and I'm playing my best golf for years cheers mate .
Hello Steve i had the hip replacement years ago and never really got back to playing the same just been on the range i tried the Eureca brilliant i just wasted the last ten years many thanks Ken
Thanks for going over the key elements again.
I have all the Eureka series and it’s brilliant Steve. Just peeved that access expires after a year…….
Have come across your channel nice work. I have just started to get back into Golf it seems to me that your system has a lot of similarities to Mr Hogan. From geometry alone makes a lot of sense.
Excellent Patrick. Thanks👍👍
It looks to me that this swing also creates a lot less stress on the lower back and hips. I have had my left hip replaced in March of this year and am about to have my right hip replaced as well in a few weeks, looking forward to seeing how this swing will help me to get some of my lost distance back as well as improving my ball striking with my mid and long irons.
It would be good to see this from different angles, and to see the ball flight and result, maybe comparing you setting up in a more square stance to show what difference it makes, Also, could you explain hip position in relation to feet and shoulders, should they be in align with your feet or shoulders, or somewhere in between.
I'll be honest, Steve, I've tried to do it, I feel awkward and my body feels twisted at set up........help needed please
Steve, I simply like watching you crush the ball. Makes me think can do it too :)
Hey Steve, never tried Eureka, but did give your blur technique a go at the range on Saturday, I hit it literally as good as I've ever seen ANYONE hit it!!!!
Then played shite in comp on Sunday 🙈 maybe confidence was too high 😂😂😂
4 years later - even these first lessons were pure!!!
Amen 🙏🏻
Interesting!
sweet spot sound but we need a straight on and rear view to see set up and ball position
Hi Steve, i’m confused about ball position at address irons and driver ?
you know I love Eureka Steve. Recently found that my best strikes occuring when I keep my head on or slightly behind ball through impact. Yes, everything else goes forward/around by the pulling of the front side, But when head stays back until impact, getting much cleaner strike and better results.
Just started the Eureka process. I’ll do some digging but wonder if ball position changes with Eureka?
Yeh, it’s in the “ball position & shit shaping” series 👍
shit shaping series 😂
Can hear the quality of the strike.
Well done
Hello Steve do you have also solutions with EUREKA when playing up and down hill , ball above or under ?
Steve. I'm considering signing up for the full course but I'm a bit concerned that the full package is a 'lifetime' access.
I'm 60 so it seems to me that I'm getting lless value for money than, say, a 30 year old. Any chance of a senior citizen discount ?
Nah, I'm kidding. It looks good and I'm looking forward to it. God knows i need something. Can the videos be downloaded or is it all streaming? I'm just thinking of taking the lessons to the driving range - where wi-fi coverage might be poor or non existence.
Hi Steve,
I'm really liking this concept / approach. I'm having lessons at the moment and where I'm struggling is clearing my left side with my feet square to target line at address. If I setup with my feet 'open' if you like similar to your method I have more success and after seeing your explanation in this video using the three alignment sticks it makes perfect sense. I have a couple of questions, are you using a strong grip with this method and is your ball to target line parallel to your shoulder setup alignment?
does the Noodle 24.99/mo subscription give you access to all content if the video set?
Yes it gives you everything and all new content. 👍👍
I find Eureka is working for me but with the addition of a left knee flex slightly more than the right.
I think its because my weight is more to the left throughout the swing, like stack and tilt.
Hi Steve great video, but now i want to see Eureka fade Best Regards Roffe
Rolf Hermansson fade ball with Eureka is in the Eureka playlist in my channel.
Steve just so I am not making another mistake with my setup and compounding problems with my stance, can you please confirm that the sholder line is the target line. Do you have an earlier video that demonstrates the basics.
To find the shoulder alignment click here www.eurekagolfswing.com/ and go to the “Iron Swing Series”, it has all the answers in depth👍
First time I’ve heard you explain eureka. I’m off to try it. Is ball position important?
I've been playing middle position on 6/7 through wedges and somewhere between left armpit and middle sternum (i.e. about where the logo on your polo shirt would be) on everything else including driver. I used to hit my driver off of the inside of my left foot/heel. Now it is a couple of inches to the right.
Douglas Robertson I have a playlist of Eureka techniques on my channel. All the answers are there👍👍
I will give it a try. Let you know
Hi Steve. 1 question, do you still play this with a slightly open face to get the hands in front of the ball and the real sweet spot on the back of it ?
Thanks and loving your content.
I will try and answer your question, YES slightly open face at address will result in lovely soft draws
Thanks for your content. Just wondering about the ball position when using this method?

Steve, can you specifie the ball position ? i'm a little confused with it! Thank's
Very nice
Hello Steve. Just finished watching this video and I will be buying the Eureka iron swing that is on special now in your page.. I just have a question doesn’t lining up to the left cause a fade shot?
So your shoulders is in a closed position at start of swing and feet are open. Similar to maybe Jim Venetos except for the swing path.
I enjoy the swing and have been using a similar swing on my own. 13 hcp moved down from 21 using eureka thanks
This has blown my mind somewhat as I have always closed my stance to hit a draw. Can this really work for a 55 year old 16 handicapper?
I am 61 and it worked for me
Works for me. 72 yrs. young. A 10.2 down from a 15.6.
Thanks Steve. Hitting the ball solid with this technique but very low especially with driver. Any ideas? Thanks
Awesome videos
Does this work with the driver
So. This would help w over the top movement? I pull shots w irons and driver.
This man is a genious
Looks a lot like Tom Saguto's swing?
Hi Steve, does the ball position change using eureka. Cheers
Can you let us know position of golf ball
Need to give eureka a shot. My ball striking is erratic at best at the moment. What tip would you give to someone who pulls the ball. I'm worried I wont commit to the open stance once I get off the range and onto the course.
What’s the angles off that center stick?
I was at the course today and hit a few, but my ball flight only went true when I was at about 45 degrees
I was using a Garmin TruSwing device the other day to try to resolve some swings issues. I forget exactly what I was trying to accomplish but I deliberately tried opening up my stance a bit. The swing metrics improved and I started hitting the ball in the desired direction with a slight draw. I’m going to give this technique a try.
I’ve been using the Square to Square swing for quite some time and it resolved a lot of issues. Do you think that the Eureka method would work with the impact position/forward shaft lean at address?
Steve, quick one as i cant seem to see anything in the comments... does the stance promote the in to out club path? or do you have to work that into the swing..
I've seen this method in another youtubers video, I wish I could remember! I'll give it a go
Eureka is my mistress who I use when my swing is misbehaving
ok thanks
Wouldn’t it promote a fade ball flight?
fascinating....,for now anyway
What if I want to hit a fade?
Tariq Kamil I have a playlist of Eureka techniques on my channel. All the answers are there👍👍
Are U sure to avoid the over the top move ?!
Steve it causes fat shots and shanks
Ok... I took the Eureka concept into our fall scramble, and as much as I felt uncomfortable opening my stance with that much flare, the quality of contact simply cannot be denied. Both driver and irons are FAR more accurate and I hit the irons (Mizuno Hot Metals) about 15 yards farther with glorious flight. 60 years old and only now am I seeing the consistency I’ve always longed for. Thank you, Steve.
Are you still using this swing method now ....just curious?
Are U sure to avoid the over the top move ?!
Hey Steve, Two questions on the Eureka method (1) How do you hit a fade ? (2) Do you use the Eureka set up the same way to hit woods using your woods swing “ball in middle and club shaft straight “ ? Thank much and keep up the great content!
You really should go here www.eurekagolfswing.com/ and the “ball position & Shot Shaping” series will answer your questions.
You won’t regret it👏🏻👏🏻👍
Does this work with the Driver? Thanks..
Been playing golf on and off for most of my life, I didn't realise I was using Eureka for my short game all this time as thats how it was taught to me when I was younger. Using Eureka off the tee and for fairway shots, I never even considered but it has improved my consistency tenfold and am now shooting lower scores and hitting more greens in regulation. Massive thank you for efforts in capturing this technique and I am sure many club golfers are benefiting from it. Still have to master the Eureka fade and draw though but that will come with more practice. Your channel deserves more subscribers than it has currently. I think if you mixed in some on course eureka lessons with similar content to "just your average golfer" "Mrshortgame" and a bit of slick editing you will be up there with MeandMyGolf and Rick Shields.Good luck Steve.
Gary thanks Gary. Eureka video tutorial series coming this week👍
I'm new to your channel and love it so far. Regarding the Eureka swing; I've been taught the the open footline leads to a cut, fade, or worse, the slice. Your swing makes sense the get the stance starting, shoulders following, adding power. For me, it looks like the hand path would naturally follow the feet/shoulders. Help me understand more!
Does the Eureka swing work on uneven lies uphill downhill below feet above feet?
Yeh, the only alteration is ball position
Works me.Been of form since I had two heart attacks in one month.This makes it easy when your stamina is limited.
When i do this way, I seem to pull my arms and club left of target because of hips are open in downswing and i see pull hooks. How do i stop this?
Greetings from Wisconsin Steve. I was having serious issues pushing the ball (not slicing more straight pushing) to the right. Great center face contact resulting in long drives but big big booming pushes. So, I worked very hard on trying to draw the ball with moderate success. I had seen your Eureka method videos before and the contradictions of feet, shoulder and path made sense to me so I gave Eureka a real chance. My first trip to the range was quite eventful and I improved with regard to the pushes right. I went back to the range today and hit over 120 balls using Eureka and never, repeat never, pushed one to the right. By really exaggerating my path right I was able to hit consistent draws with repeatable results. Mostly however I hit the ball straight and long. I kept waiting for something to fall apart thinking "it just cannot be this easy", in fact it was. So, my friend, I am a believer. I'll play my first actual competitive round of golf using Eureka this week and I look forward to it with anticipation. I'll let you know how goes but please know that I am very thankful to you for revealing this method, it works. I look forward to more great content and thank you very kindly for helping me improve my driving. All the best to you and your family! Rick M Wisconsin USA.
Hey Rick, thanks for your comments. Keep me posted with your progress. Good luck!
Can you please let me know the ball position at open stance, , finding difficulty in aligning to the target, ie I am hitting the ball to the right of the target
Steve why do I slice my driver with open stance swing. I either pull it or slice the ball.
Hi Steve, watched the vid and I’m really interested to give this a try on the range but 1st could you answer a couple of questions please?
1 what’s the ball position in your stance ?
2. Is the clubface facing the target ?
Many thanks in advance
I changed to eureka with the driver only last year. It's still a work in progress but huge improvement from the slice I had. Been implementing it into my irons about 50% of the time so far. Steve would be interested to know what Dan thought of it at the YT golf day
Steve, great insight! John 3:16
"That was quality" Brilliant
