That whipping impact sound when moe hits the ball is the best. I get that sound when I do the single plane swing correct. I love it so much. when it’s effortless and you also get that sound, it’s amazing, and you know it’s good.

Thank you Todd for posting all this content for free. You are a great teacher and a great help to me personally. Really appreciate all you do and I hope to see you at one of your camps one day!

His smoothness & confidence is unreal. He is not worried about hitting a bad shot. With his insights and your technical details, we can’t lose. Great share

yes. Unreal.

That sound.. it’s absolutely addictive. Anyone who ever even by luck has had a pure compressed strike like that is hooked on it.. hitting woods, 5 or 3 is an absolute joy once you’ve figured out what to do.

Switched over to Moe swing it’s so consistent easy to repeat and no back pain.

Great stuff, Todd! Thanks for letting these videos live on and your commentary is excellent. If you just listened to the strike and turned the video off, you would believe you were listening to Hogan, Trevino, or Tiger. There is NO substitute for the sound of a well struck ball.

So true.

Love your videos. Setup Hint! Take your stance with the sun at midpoint behind you so you can see your shadow on the ground, from the feet to the shoulders and the head. Go into your stance routine & swing, & watch your shadow. It turned out I thought my lead shoulder was farther out than it really was. (I.e., my shoulders were not as wide as I thought.) I also Kept moving my head backward on the backswing. Now hitting the ball much better.

Encore une fois merci Todd pour cette belle explication et démonstration sur la fluidité, je peux percevoir et écouter des notes de musique 🎵 transmises par la vitesse de la tête de club et impact dans la balle, c’est une merveille de témoignage que Moe nous a laissé en héritage. J’adore et admire cette très belle machine exécuter son sentiment de grandeur. Passez une très belle soirée depuis la France.

Great break down of Moe's insights to what he was feeling in his swing.

I've been watching a few videos of Moe recently. The sound of the ball being struck by him is different from any other golfer (especially with his irons). Crisp and not exceptionally loud. I can only surmise that this is because few strike the ball as cleanly as he did.

Very helpful. Great stuff today 💪

Todd thanks again best videos ever. I'm fully committed. This is the way to golf. I have a question. In all your videos it always looks like the club face is open, or slightly away from the target, not aiming dead center. Is this just my mind seeing things of should I be ok with seeing the club face a few degrees ...to the right i guess. Thanks again for making golf fun finally!

Thanks Todd for this video.Being a Canadian and from the Niagara region I have seen him hit golf balls...Amazing.

I finally got it stopped at the right point, about half way between positions 3 and 4. The shaft looks like it is maybe 4 to 6 inches away from the trail shoulder. Very much like Ben Hogan. Then he explodes into impact. I think this video brought that out to an extent I had never seen before. Thanks Todd! Something else to practice. Position 3.5. Vertical drop in action!

Todd you already know I'm a Moe fan without question. I'm at Marriott Grand Vista in Orlando FL. We need to hook up and talk some Moe. If your in the FL area I may even swing by your way. Now you know brothers got the rhythm. And NO Tiger CAN'T dance. Real brothers rhythm. 🤣 Holla at yo boy! Til then. ShadeTree Pro Always Good Golfn...

That strike at 7:27 was 😮

Cold, wet days are for watching Moe Videos and doing Drills🏌🏼‍♂️😎

Increasing speed of the club head with maximum speed at a point beyond the ball position is the secret to long drives not yanking the club at full speed at the top of the backswing. More was a one-of-a kind professional but I would not play the ball that far forward in my stance. For most golfer, the ball would be topped or missed completely because many golfers realize that weight shift to the lead foot is a must. They remain on their back foot and top or chunk the ball. For seniors that tense and violent swing would cause spine damage. A good golf swing is free of tension in hands and arms with a smooth body turn for a weight shift. Trying to copy tour pros is a mistake.

Unreal striker of the ball.

I watched your video for long time and follow with great result however I lost those movement and lost my confident.Till I found out that I the problem came from weight transfer was too much to the right then sway to the left .Now happy to fix that.Please talk about weight transfer to your next Video.Thanks.

Hi! Todd! I’m wondering what is the contribution of left and right arm on golf swing. The right arm pushes while left arm pulls. Which arm is dominant?

@ToddGravesGolf

Жыл бұрын

There is no dominant arm however, there are contributions of each arm depending on "where" in the swing motion. I cover this in my videos on the biomechanics of the swing.

When I look carefully at Moe’s swing particularly with the longer clubs he does have a slight closed stance and his shot is a slight pulled shot to the left. The ball flight is straight but slightly to the left. It appears that this way he can rotate the lower body easier and get better power through the swing.

@ToddGravesGolf

Жыл бұрын

Pulled relative to the toe line? Ben Hogan had the same Toe-line to target ball-position. I would suggest that this is not a pull but rather good biomechanics relative to ball position.

Just got an advertisement for Martin Chucks latest perfect contact training...in the ad Martin says he used to shag ball on the range for Moe Norman and says tho Moe did not have a perfect swing he did have perfect contact and he learned from watching Moe the value of perfect contact.....

@ToddGravesGolf

Жыл бұрын

Moe had a perfect swing which is why Moe had perfect contact. That is why I teach it.

Todd what I found most insightful from Moe here is where he says (and I'm paraphrasing) he is never putting any strain on his trail leg. He even qualifies this further with a second warning of "never". My question is should take from him saying this is that the SPS is lead sided? Is that essentially what he's trying to tell us here? Many Thanks. Tim

Sorry Todd I think he actually says this in your recent lower body move video rather than this one but it is from the same range footage. Just to avoid confusion

Hi Todd could you explain your opinion on why when he is hitting the 4iron the ball position is different of what you teach? Thank you

I play golf with an 86 year old scratch golfer. He is not a single planer and he outdrives those of us in our 70's. Single plane is the way to go for me. I am wondering if I should look into single length irons.

Quick question, are you preloaded on the right side?

Keep the range videos going…. Just golf chat while hitting balls. Feel like I am on the range with you getting lessons!!

Hey Todd. Im a single plane user and i just wanted to ask. Why don't i see many professionals use the single plane swing? ( besides Bryson) love the vids. LONG LIVE MOE.

Same reason most believe the heliocentric theory.

One of the difficulties of the golf swing often posited is that we're not hitting a moving target (which is easier to do) Do you think that Moe starting so far from the ball gets over this: he has to move into the ball, not quite happy gilmore but a mini version?

There are "reasons" for Moe staring the club well behind the ball. It put him into his backswing and it keep a better club to body relationship thought the swing. Yes, as you state it could help him swing trough the ball too.

keep the triangle together,,,,right han/club "contained",,,,,,,hold it off thru impact,,,,,,,,,"my hands to my pockets",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,he doesnt throw his power away

Did not play for a few weeks then went out and had worst round of the year, forgot smooth, I was doing the PC pipe position drill again while playing....small brain catch myself doing it every once and while...just swing start to finish smooth don't think about or try and hit the positions while playing da

Als je goed kijkt naar de adrespositie van de club (niet van de bal positie )dan staat zijn hoofd fix in de aslijn van zijn adres positie en slaat precies naar die plaats van de adres positie en nu begrijp ik waarom hij zegt mijn handen zijn steeds voor mijn body bij het uitswingen en is zijn linker schouderblad het asdraaipunt daar hij zijn hoofd achterhoud op die Adres positie ❤greats Hubert

Is your trail arm tucked to your body on the downswing

This, no doubt is the greatest swing with tremendous accuracy. With that said, why don't the pros use it?

Aim and Fire.. no one fires the ball “they direct” Moe was the only one that fires at the ball.. Aim & Fire it’s that simple 🎯

The pros don’t use it because nobody has figured it out

Another yoyo he moves head up then down then up he also slides into it he measures then skid beyond the position of origin of address. No good.
