STEP-BY-STEP TRAINING

The section focuses on step-by-step training exercises. Their purpose is to train the body to perform the individual motions necessary to hit a golf ball properly. These exercises are broken into the following three main categories:

  • Primary Rotation – Training the shoulders

  • Secondary Rotation – Training the Straight Left Arm

  • Tertiary Motion – Learning how to use the right arm to tie Primary and Secondary together

Each category contains a series of exercises that have a specific purpose. The series starts with exercises in the “Vertical World” — i.e., standing erect — and then graduate to the “Inclined World” — i.e., at the inclined address position.  

The series of exercises follow this progression:

  • Motions that don’t require any equipment and can be completed at home. 

  • The same exercises again with a golf club, only to study the same motion with the effects of gravity — i.e., the weight of a golf club.

  • The same exercises one last time, but with a golf club and a golf ball.

You’ll notice that many of these exercises don’t involve hitting a golf ball and can be done at home.   

The three important aspects for effective practicing are:

  • Adopt a step-wise approach to learning the swing.

  • Practice the right stuff.

  • Practice on a regular basis.
