What does it mean to put the Brakes on your swing? This is something that golf instructors rarely talk about because they just don’t understand that the golf swing is more than just movement. The golf swing is stabilized movement.
This means that you can’t move the speed producing parts of the swing if your lower body isn’t able to provide support. This means that if your lower body isn’t supported, you can not move your arms fast. This just makes sense. It’s been said that you can’t shoot a cannon from a canoe. Similarly, you can’t hit a golf ball standing on ice. How can you expect to swing fast if you aren’t stable?
In this video, I discuss the mechanics of the body’s stabilizers and support systems and how, starting from the ground up, you can stabilize your body in an ideal position – without even trying.
About the Single Plane Swing
Starting at address on two planes where the arms hang straight down at address, the Conventional golf swing is complicated. Because the arms are hanging straight down, a conventional golfer must lift the body into impact creating stress on the back.
This upward movement to accommodate the two planes is unnecessary.
The Single Plane Golf swing simplifies the golf swing by eliminating the need for the upward movement by starting and impacting on the same plane.
