Todd, I saw a video of you by chance because I saw it on KZread. The truth is that I'm impressed, I'm fascinated with this swing concept, I haven't stopped watching your videos and Moe's, and I've been fascinated by the concept of this MOE swing. I am reading the book, and of course practicing a lot. Today I made the best round of my life. I am absolutely happy and grateful. Thanks you so much for share this gift with us.

Great to hear.

Todd!!! All of your videos are fantastic. But this time you have outdone even yourself. Your ability to analyze then translate your keen observations in to a hands on demo is unparalleled. This lesson has been the proverbial 'missing link' for me! Thanks once again....John

Nice work! Good round.

I mean, you gotta wake up every day missing Moe, and knowing he is there with ya still. What an incredible opportunity you had. Not only that, what you did with that opportunity. God bless ya man.

Todd’s videos took me from an 18 hcp to a 6 hcp over the last year. Very grateful Todd! I look forward to attending a Graves Academy event in person someday soon. I get a lot of compliments on how solid I strike the ball from my friends. Now if I can master putting I’ll go scratch! BTW, all this at 63 years old. My 7i goes 170. Never hit the ball like this before.

@@ToddGravesGolf it was my 155 club before I started following your lessons. Thank you again.

Call it K.I.S.S. or Occam's razor, Todd, you're a genius to come up with such an effective tool that joins simplicity and elegance that demonstrates your complete understanding of Moe's swing dynamics!

0:17 - Tim has an awesome golf swing, just WOW! The separation in the transition is EXCELLENT! He resists ANY temptation to swing the arms after transition, well into the downswing; Rotationally the hips lead the torso, and that trail elbow is married to his trail hip and side. Outstanding lateral side bend, and amazing how long he drives that bent trail elbow into rotation, making for a superb late release. No wonder he wins a lot!

I'm a poor man playing a rich mans sport. But i love to play a friend got me back out there playing and my swinb was broken . I have watched so many videos trying find my swing again. Came across your videos and got hooked on watching them . Started today at the range with this swing and played 36 holes and was geting better the more i played . My driver was getting better with each hole . Still got a lot of work to do . Got to work on getting better clubs mine 20 years old

Been doing this for a couple years now. Really got more into the last year. Bought the abt and swing trainer. Gotten down to 0 hc with this swing. The swing trainer really helps.

Yes. Having the Single Plane Trainer is very helpful to feel the club on the lead side.

@Todd Graves. Hi Todd, thanks for sharing your work. I have revisited Moe's single plane and integrated some Ben Hogan aspects, like the arms close together with right one bent some and the square back foot and right knee bent in and left knee bent in slightly at setup. All that has given me the connection and stability i need to make a good Moe Norman swing. Our front yard was saturated today and I am now able to pick the ball clean, even though it is very damp, hardly any grass grown in yet, lie (still a little cold here), without getting anything but an occasional grass blade and only the slightest hint of mud, on the 7 iron face. That to me is astonishing, I have never hit a ball this cleanly and consistently, with such effortless, coiled power. Thanks again. peace love light

Great video. Attended a school back in October in Orlando. Trying to break into the 70's. Just played a tournament and definitely more consistent. Several pars's and even a few birdies. Love the videos as they reinforce the training I received.Keep up the great work

Thank you Todd for giving me the inspiration to play golf again the Moe way.

i own your book and the foot position board. This swing trainer allows me feel the position putting the weight to the inside of the trail leg. Spectacular. Yes in the early days I used a piece of PVC pipe. The trainer was the final piece of the puzzle. I started with the traditional swing and practiced with my professional for 6 months before playing a hole. Practicing these positions and checking them - including that clever little stripe of the swing training club is again - spectacular. All the best.

Something I don't hear mentioned about Moe's swing: watch his head in relationship to a spot on the tree behind him as he begins the back swing. Now watch as his head (his entire upper body) lowers as he starts and completes the downswing but before impact. That's a significant drop we don't see in Todd's swing before impact. Can you explain what's going on? How significant is that drop in stature before impact?

And there is one of the main differences between the real and the imitation. Right shoulder needs to get very low. Like trevino

This technique is phenomenally efficient, especially for woods I noticed. And starting with the clubhead those six inches behind the ball works for some unknown to me reason - much more power and not detrimental to the strike quality at all.

The first movement is key. When I get to position 1 correctly, position 2 happens naturally and the results in a feeling of confidence. I focus on the back of my left hand. It should be on plane at position 2.

What a great player would have loved to meet him..

Brilliant. Thank you

Yes. It helps to keep you in the correct Tilt as well.

The simpler I refine the single plane move the more I hit the ball and create effortless power

Does the trail hand bend more east to west like skipping a rock. Once i started doing that instead of hinging the wrist more north to south it was an eye opener, made a huge difference in swing and contact.

Great vid! Please post more Quick question. When you flex in to your left knee, is that a trigger to release the club?

@ToddGravesGolf

2 жыл бұрын

No. the lead knee flexes when the pelvis moves in transition. It is the star of the downswing.

If I want to revisit this swing, and I do, and I’m a Star Wars fan who wants a Darth Maul replica lightsaber, it’s a win win. 👍🏼

Outstanding presentation! Todd is the "trainer" a certain length for a reason & why when you are doing your reps, that it doesn't go all the way down to the ball?

@ToddGravesGolf

You could have it go to the ground but it is unnecessary since the movement is the same for all clubs. The singe plane trainer teaches the club to body relationship - the grip - and the proper movement of the arms and body. No need to hit the ground.

Great

Wouldn’t a flat-faced putter grip be beneficial to someone with a single-plane swing?

Theoretically sound🎉

@Tod, would you say the feeling is like pivoting around your left side when hitting shots?

Todd is there a video where you go through all 6 positions in the one segment? I can find videos where you go through some of the positions obviously but can't find a run through of them all in the one segment where you deliberately demonstrate each position. I'm sure it's probably staring me in the face but any assistance would be much appreciated ! Many Thanks. Tim

Awesome . Thanks for this

Todd at 22.55 you explain when you set up with both hands that in the backswing the trail hand is just going along for the ride is this the same for the downswing ie. the lead arm is leading the downswing to impact. I am getting confused here as I recently watched your video on 'slapping' the ball into impact which to me can only be done by the trail hand?. Help!!!!.

@ToddGravesGolf

Жыл бұрын

Initially the trial arm is along for the ride but it has bent and the wrist has hinged in the backswing. Then midway in the downswing, the trail hand accelerates like skipping a rock it goes from bent to straight. the wrist goes from flexed to extended. The lead arm pulls as the trail arm skips a rock. Biomechanics of the body is a series of movements. Comments like along for the ride are only partially representative of Actuality.

Moe was a savant.

I always check the butt of the club leading snd never pointing at my body. Funny aside. I was greenside. In deep grass. For fun I had an old Graves Golf Moe Norman Sandy Andy in my bag that day instead of my 60 degree. Popped it out up and tight. The guys on the patio having a cold one took notice. Next up - bring back the Sandy Andy. Mine has some rust on the shaft - an eBay purchase😊😊😊
