Starting with personal experience, I can tell you that I have had golf lessons and golf instruction from the worst of them to world class instructors. World class means they charged the most.

I have spent large amount of monies in search of the SECRET to the golf swing. I have paid for videos, instruction manuals, e books, playing lessons, gadget of colors, sizes, and purposes.

Every single thing that I have experienced had some useful tidbit buried in all the BS. It took years for me to figure it out.

The one thing that all of this had in common was:

Not one taught the same thing!!!!

There is generally no agreement in the Golf Instruction community about what actually takes place in the golf swing.

The reason for this is that most just plain don’t know. I could make a list a mile long that would include all the golf instruction that is just flat out wrong.

How about a couple of examples just for fun.

Has anyone ever told you to just relax? What sporting activity have you ever seen where the participants are ” just relaxing”… boxing? Football? Baseball? Basketball? Bowling? Come one. It is an athletic event. You don’t relax when you are trying to smash the cover off the ball. You are at a heightened level of power and speed.

It is no place for a nap. Relax. What a bunch of crap.

Have you ever seen the face of PGA players at the point of impact on the tee shot?

Trust me when I tell you there is absolutely no relaxation in their expressions.

Or take a light grip. I love that one. It’s the brother to ” just relax”

I know, some of you are thinking, jeez this guy is full of it. Everyone knows that you have to take a light grip. Nope… no one that plays at a high level does this. No one.

It it true that yo shouldn’t try and squeeze water out of the grip, but you do not hold it lightly either.

Ever wonder why you wear out the palm pad of your golf glove? It’s because you are gripping it wrong and light. Which means you have to Re-grip somewhere in the downswing the proper amount so you won’t loose the club.

Oh yeah … then there is the ” keep your head still” thing. This has created more poor weight shifts or reverse weight shift than you will ever imagine.

You have to move your head. Many actually move it back away from the target, but you have to move your head.

What you don’t do is move it past the ball. If you move past the ball you will most assuredly hit from the top.

Keeping your head behind the ball allows you to “rock your shoulders” so that you stay on plane and have the correct path. More on this move in the next segment of this article.

How about this one. The first move you make on the downswing is to turn your hips out of the way.

I must tell you that if you have no weight shift this could be the culprit.

Not one good player in the history of the game did this. It is so stupid that I may not even explain what the correct first move is, if you don’t already know.

There are tons of other golf instruction swing busters. Golf lessons provide some decent instruction, but you have to already know the basics before you will benefit much, unless you are lucky and know someone who really, really knows his/her stuff.

Most PGA professionals try very hard to get it right. But it seems that they all go to the same school. And then once they are on the practice tee they sort of make it up to fit the student.

I know I shouldn’t put them all in the same boat. So I won’t. Just the ones I have had experience with and the ones that my friends and family have had experience with and all the people I have ever played golf with have had experience with and so on fall into that boat.

Want proof?

Not one single person that I have ever talked to or played golf with has ever seen more than a stroke or two improvement as a result of golf instruction or golf lessons from any PGA instruction.

And most that did improve, found out later, that it was just a short term fix and soon their mistakes were back.

How about you? Have you seen huge improvement?

In part two of this article, we will learn what actually happens in the golf swing. And we find out why golf instruction does you more harm than good if these are not what is being taught to you.

If there really are ” magic moves” in the golf swing, why is it the golf instruction doesn’t reveal them?

Believe this… there are those who know exactly what these moves are. And they will work for anyone who wants to apply them with time and practice. Anyone!

A Golf Swing is a thing of beauty. You could actually have one too, have a look if you want more information about how to develop a consistent Golf Swing. See the magic moves that work:
