After many years of searching, I developed a much easier, repeatable golf swing. This golf swing uses the Large Muscles (Shoulders & Body Turn) to control the club. This new swing is more Consistent, Powerful and Reliable. This is done by removing all disruptive movements, that “Let” the Large Muscles Control the arms, hands & club.

Why a need for “New Golf Instruction?”
- Because, some “Traditional Instruction” can be replaced with more reliable, athletic movements and setup. For example … learn more

Ross… after viewing your video about keeping the arms together to form a triangle with the shoulders finally hit me like a ton of wedges… i’ve been playing since my old caddy days (30 years now?) and i’ve read everything i could get my hands on about instruction, etc… i’ve been as low as a 7 handicap so i have relied on good hand-eye coordination… lately I have been playing awful… i joined your site and played many of your videos over and over again till the tight arms connected to the body video kicked in… sunday i took it to the course.. shot 47 on the front (too many three putts) and 38 on the back. things finally clicked i was staking my approach irons and missed only one green and two fairways! putter was working again- 3 birds… still a little trouble with 3 wood and hybrid ball position… you may have saved my game…thnx… tim
Hi Tim
Great to hear! Yes the elbows towards each other, somewhat defeats the arms, hands and club (kind of a submissive position they’ll take) and lets the shoulder control them. Here is a great (look at this many times til the light bulb comes on) post that I know will help your 3 wood and Hybrids and Driver Click here remember to keep unwinding from ground up and let the body turn hit the ball… If you don’t mind, I will copy and paste your nice comment to the blog so others might see it… thanks again, Ross
Hi Ross, It’s good to hear from you again. You had kind of dropped off the radar for a while and was a little concerned that something had happened to you. I have not played a lot of golf myself in the past couple of years (life gets in the way) but I do get out your video “GOLF The Right Way” to brush up on my technique when I do get a chance. Your e-mail has given me the itch again. Time to pop in the video and dust off the clubs I think. Looking forward to more great instruction from you.
Brett
Great to hear from you Brett. You are going to be very enlightened when you read the blog or visit YouTube Now, all videos are downloadable and I figure out how to serve them up on the iPhone and iPad etc. You really made my day Brett. I am really glad some of the older supporters still remember. Let me know if you need login info again… I will get it to you… and now I am including a swing analysis so send me your swing video and I will take a look (no charge for members)… keep in touch… Ross
Can’t wait to do a structured path through the whole set of lessons, but the first ten minutes of random drills and just trying a few simple tips was worth many times the lifetime membership cost, and guess what? I have real numbers to prove it because I own a P3Pro simulator.
A big old guy, I first came to the disease of golf late in life (started age 55 two years ago) and a local “PGA Pro” hit-down teaching “guru” got me lost and more confused and completey disconnected from any consistency.
Ten minutes of set-up adjustments and some of your drills and sense started to return quickly. My swing effort is way down, my club head speed is up significantly, my swaying is less and I’m hitting down naturally on a more consistent inside out path with far more consistency.
As an engineer using the big muscles makes sense, your teaching makes using them easier and seems to make the swing far less dependent on timing and correction. Just what the latecomer to golf needed.
I’ll keep you posted and take you up on the swing analysis part of the membership. Can you teach by internet and email? You sure can, especially with your simplicity and clarity and also in conjuction with the data and video from a home simulator like the P3Pro that I have.
Hi Ross. I just wanted to say thanks for the best ball striking round in a long time. Your method is fantastic and the duck hooks and overly low shots are 98% gone. I just played my first 18 with your method and I was in places I’ve never seen … fairways, lol. super reliable and no more timing with the hands. I actually have no time to think hands now and its repeatable. I used to be all arms and hands to take the club away and never for the life of me could I figure out why I couldn’t swing the club up at all, it was in and around which led to all hooks. the only time I started to fall off track was when I started thinking where my arms and hands were and if they were doing something. I put that to bed and it was tour swinging. this actually lets me slow my tempo down and hit way more solid shots. great coaching ross.
Wow! great Tim! It is really good to hear from those that actually give these ideas a chance and not just stick to the old ways… you made my day
keep me posted…
Ross,
My question is do you swing down the target line or down your body line because of the open stance. Thank you.
Jim
Great question. The body line! Or the toe line, hip line, shoulder line, forearms… they all should be aligned naturally and parallel to each other. You will NEVER, not swing along your body line or ever swing on a target line. That is disconnected and not repeatable and wants to correct during the swing. Many times I see players on TV with a short wedge shot to the green with an open stance but closed shoulders and ball way back in stance. They often miss left, because the shoulders during the swing, will try to align back with the hips and that pulls the shot. The only reason they have closed shoulders and ball back in stance, is because they do not know how to rotate through impact and want a very steep angle of attack to hit down on the ball. Much easier with ball on the front foot, passive hands and an athletic rotation… thanks , Jim
Thanks Ross,
I can’t wait to try your style. I live in Upstate New York and courses are very wet. I will let you know my progress. Thanks so much for your timely response.
Jim
Ross,
I notice that you don’t keep your left arm and shaft straight on the other clubs. Only on the driver. Is this correct?
You should start with the shaft in line with front arm on ALL CLUBS. And yes Jim, you are right about my setup in some of the videos but, if you notice, before I take the club back, I will always forward press to get the shaft in line then push back. I realized that, the forward press (and many great golfers do it) is not a bad thing, it is just not as consistent as just setting up with it already in line. As Move Less … Get Good! is evolving, I teach my students that their setup and the takeaway can be more consistent if the forward press is just removed and setup includes the club shaft in line. Sorry, I’m not the perfect model, but the concept is solid and you will see an immediate difference. I’ve seen many, many golfers improve with shaft in line with both their takeaway and more solid contact. … Ross
Ross,
After subscribing to your website and online lessons, I got out to the range over the weekend and saw dramatic, immediate improvement in my ball striking and consistency–even on a very windy day.. Your clear explanations of lining up the ball from left shaft line rather than center, position of elbows, etc worked wonders. Thank you.
Mart
Great to hear Mart. Please continue to let me know how you are doing. I’m always available for a question. Thanks.
Hi Ross, I’ve been an avid follower of Jim Flick’s “square to square ” principles for many, many years and refer back to his books for constant support and affirmation. ( there’s so much garble out there that is so confusing ) I came upon your short video when I “googled” – square to square golf swing. I totally agree with what you’re saying. It sounds like it’s right out of Jim’s books. Are you a former student of his? I plan on visiting your site for more of your swing insights that are built around this basic principle. What I’ve evolved over the years is to use the same square to square stance for “every” shot. The only difference being the width and ball position. That way, I find it easier to see the line because I have the same perspective on every shot – including the putt ! My posture, of course, changes because of the different lenghts of each club shaft, but that’s not a concern because my setup always “feels” the same.
I’m glad that I found your site, I’m interested in what you have to say……Ralph
Thanks for the nice comments Ralph. No, I am not a student of Jim’s. Probably more, Hogan, Leadbetter and Carl Lohren (One move to better golf). Mostly my ideas, especially the athletic turn aspect, are of my own pursuit for a more efficient swing. I just couldn’t accept some of traditional golf instruction, when I would try to teach to my students and knew deep down there has to be better ways. Please read more and there is a lot more coming this summer (video & posts). Square face (what most would call laid-off) works, because of the Athletic Turn. When the grip pressure remains constant, the club face is where it is supposed to be in the sequence (not out in front of the turn)… great you came by… Ross
Found your lessons on YouTube and they helped immediately. What do I need to do to be a member? Have tried unsuccessfully to do this
Thanks!
Great Steve. We’ve been working on a newer look and are working out a few bugs. I just added a link top right that says “Become a Member“, that takes you to the page you are looking for. Sorry for any confusion… Ross
Came to your webblog through Reddit. You already know I am signing up to your feed.
Thanks Ross
I’m having a small issue I cannot make my reader pick up your feed, I’m using google reader by the way.
I believe I have it functioning now. Please try and let me know. Would appreciate it… thanks, Ross
finally! I swung this way as a kid……..tried to improve my swing by taking traditional lessons and lost everything. I’m back!!!!!
Welcome back… hopefully I have some “old” insight for you. Or, maybe just new ways to achieve your old moves… let me know if I can help… Ross
Thanks. Great stuff
