WOW, so many golfers are still taking the golf club straight back and through and its killing their golf swings. If you want speed in your swing and if you want to impact the golf ball on the centre of the golf club face then this is the video for you. Before you know it you will be hitting more fairways with a higher, straighter ball flight.
Remember, baby steps…start of with very small swings and build your way up.
If you enjoyed the video check out my website, details below.
💥EUREKA GOLF SWING💥
For a golf swing that is CONSISTENT, provides a flat left wrist, compression, lag and more. Steve’s EUREKA GOLF SWING METHOD is now being implemented in 62 countries taking the golfers game to a place that allows the body to turn, the flight to straighten and compression to become a reality.
The starting place is the “iron swing series” offering the set-up of the Eureka Golf Swing canes and a step by step tutorial of the full action.
REMEMBER: as Steve says, “There is a difference between opening your stance and aiming left”.

Straight back and straight through kills your golf swing here’s how and quickly before we start if you could hit that like button that would be bright that really is a game changer so I’ve set this station up here I’ve got a wedge which is 54° of Loft and the lie angle
64° so these canes are both at 64° are very close to it now by going straight back and straight through it kills your golf swing so many people and quite rightly so think that if the club goes straight back and straight through that’s going to hit straight golf shots
That’s not going to hit straight golf shots because we stand side onto the golf ball if I played snooker I’d be behind the golf ball straight back straight through but we’re playing golf and we stand at the side of the golf ball and we swing on an angled plane so
Something has to change so quite simply when you swing the golf club the club doesn’t go straight back and straight through in line with intended target it comes backwards upwards and inwards so the club comes back away from Target it comes upwards but also comes inwards because we swing on this PL
Of the shaft so I’ve made up with the shaft so we don’t swing straight up and down if the club was straight up and down like Cricket yes we would go straight back hit ball straight through but because our club shaft is angled the club has to come round hit ball round so
The club comes backwards up and in back up and in so if I address the golf ball I take the club back away from the golf ball it’s it’s three pieces of the pie okay okay so there’s three there there’s 3/3 to this and we want to keep them as
Even as possible so back up and in comes back the club obviously comes up and it comes in as well in equal portions back up and in then the way down of course it goes down forwards and outwards so the club goes downwards it goes forwards towards Target and it goes out towards
The golf ball back up in down forwards out back stop in that’s your Arc that’s your swing plane now if I was to swing here now I would miss both of these but I’m trying to keep my club shaft on that line back up and in down forwards and
Out back up in down forwards out back up in there there I’ve just got a little wedge in my hand just now 54° to train the body to train the feels of how the golf club actually moves back up and in down forwards out back up in
In that sequence Club comes round and Up Down and Out round and up but I can completely see how golfers new golfers all golfers feel as though keeping the club in L with the intended target is going to give them more success but you can
See how I come off this nice plane that I’ve created with my canes up there up there is very awkward strikes obviously compromised until I understand okay I need to swing on this plane if I fill in this with material and the club lay on
It then I would be swinging back up and in down forwards out then back up and in again back up in down forwards out like so now you can see my finish position my club shaft is very close to this line here I step out there and at
Top of my swing it would have been close too now it will also come off that plane at some point however if we think about impact I think about golf from here to here there through there to there impact is King and if we’ve got all these parameters set for impact and we
Practice it just now back up and in down forwards out back up and in with little short shots there there then we are going to get pretty good when we apply speed power and increase the range of motion back up and in down forwards out now these are all good strikes and
All going on target create the motion increase it slightly increasing my increasing my range of motion ball goes further but the focus is back up and in without the back up and in if I get that wrong something has to compromise so let’s say for example there was back and
Up third of back third of up and a third of in then we’re on plane if I go away from that and I have more less in let’s say so backing up so there’s a third out there of course I’ll have to re-root so I’ll have to somehow come back down
There to try and get strike on the golf ball so try and keep it as equal thirds visualize it and picture it as equal thirds back up in down forwards out back up in there to there that felt amazing increasing the range of motion as I go at that finish
Position on plane now you can see this is not hard to do to swing the club on plane you can see from the angle of the camera how on plane my golf club is but it’s it’s our it’s the way we interpretate golf the the way the player
Comes up the club’s designed perfectly on this Li angle 64° Li angle for a 54° wedge designed to come through impact somewhere similar to that there’s a little bit of shaft Bend not a huge amount but it’s designed for that reason but then we come in and we lift the
Handle and that alters face and makes strike harder it’s feeling the feeling for me here is the club comes up back and in but it goes behind me the club goes out of VI hit ball out of view I’m not keeping the club head in view so I’m more behind more behind
So if I take that approach and just think behind to behind I’m going to hit the ball well because I’m swinging on that angled plane that pitched roof if you like now when I think about going behind behind coming into impact I still have to go out towards the golf ball
That is that is incredibly important so I’m behind hit ball as I hit the ball to get behind here I’m not coming out this way I have to go out to the golf ball before go behind so behind hit ball behind going outwards behind hit ball behind going outwards so that’s the
Downwards forwards and outwards section back up in down forwards out back up in down forwards and out and of course we marry up on both sides so if I’m here I’m going to end up here little short ones just to feel set yourself up with your canes there there
There there lovely listen to that soft strike such fun now I’ve set myself up with eight iron so I’ve moved the angles it’s no longer 64° it’s a little bit flatter so I’ve moved my canes a fraction but I’m still back up and in down forwards out
Back up and in so a little short take three balls with an eight iron obviously wider stance now because we’re implying more force and more range of motion there okay decent it’s all it was yeah back up and in down forwards and out back up and in so I’m there to
There it was good it was good and then you can go fully at it in there I say fully at it I mean thing is the cane there you got to be careful not to get too low down forwards out go amazing so a great drill to keep the
Club on playe do not go straight back and straight through because straight back and straight through is killing your golf swing don’t want to kill your golf swing guys thanks so much for watching thanks so much for subscribing click the like button we like lots of

Steve, the gem alignment aid, not the same as you use but is it good enough for the amateur? If i order from them how do they know i ordered because of your video?
Great video Steve.
Steve pointing out the most obvious of myths. Surely any real golfer realizes that we swing on an elliptical path unless we get elastic mans stretching arms.
Excellent communication of swing plane. I had to unlearn swinging like a baseball bat. I find your videos the most helpful.
Is back up in down forward out related to club head or hands?
This is why I’m not a big believer in the take away where the club head is outside the hands during the first move. It seem to me that there is too much emphasis placed on this and products like the “Take Away” sold by David Leadbetter.
But then again, I’m a below average ball striker….
What a fantastic explanation and demonstration. Cheers Steve.
thanks for the efforts you put in for these videos. Always inventive and interesting.
Excellent demo Steve!
