How To Make Toddler Golf Clubs!

The problem is that most of toddler/junior golf clubs bought off the rack at the reta ...

From just a look, it might look like I am not doing much but if you look carefully, here’s what’s going through my mind on each shot. Before each shot, I take 1-2 practice swi ...

Ben Hogan’s Swing Plane, Tiger Wood’s Swing Plane  ...
Here’s something that could be helpful for those of you who think there’s a perfect plane to a golf swing. The simple answer, is that there is no perfect plane in a golf swing.  For one, Hogan claims in his book that the reason he used the swing plane concept was to get his backswing in a “consistent slot” but not an effort to say there’s such thi ...

I use Ben Hogan’s Grip!
Because I tend to hook a lot, I’ve recently switched my grip from normal (where both Vs point to your right armpit) to a slightly different one where the right hand “V” points to your neck as seen above. (This is the one Ben Hogan used back in the day because he was a wild hooker.) This would be considered slightly “weak” grip as it will promote m ...

My 7-Iron Knock-Down Shot!
Here’s an update on my re-entrance to pro circuit.  My latest swing… Because I forgot to bring my HD camera, I took it with my SD750 then had to rotate the video 270 degrees when I got home, causing the video to get shorter and wider.  OOps. Anyways, setup looks okay. I’ve actually been working on a new “flatter” plane but this is fine. At the ...

Feeling of “Light Hands” at the Top of Your Backswing ...
One fo the best swing thoughts that have worked for me regardless of how I am swinging over the years is “lights hands” at the top of your backswing. Having “light hands” at the top of your backswing can help you do one very important thing right.  By having your hands light at the top of your backswing, you will easily be able to start the downswing wi ...

How to Break Bad Spells(Holes) During a Round!
You probably can remember at least a dozen times when you or a pro golfer on TV is playing incredibly well until one hole, he/she starts melting down, making bogeys, doubles, and worse. This bogey-train is a bad spell put on you by exception of no one except yourself.  What I mean is that this “bad” break, is really all in your head when you start messing up one ho ...

A Good(Perfect) Swing is only a small fraction of the Real Game!
I  might emphasize a lot of swing mechanics on this blog as of lately but I don’t want you to get the wrong idea that just because your swing is perfect, you should expect/think you will score better on the course. Golf is really mostly a mental game, just like  driving a race car is.  The moment you lose focus for 1 to 2 seconds might cost you a tournament or even a s ...

Golf Book Review – Ben Hogan’s Five Lessons – T ...
Even with Tiger winning so many majors and Jack Nicklaus having accomplished so much, there’s still only one “best striker” of the golf ball in my mind, Ben Hogan. What’s amazing about Ben Hogan is not that his swing is perfect (which it is and most modern golf instruction have derived from Ben Hogan’s concepts, this very book), his car got hit by ...
