There is so much great information in this book that gave me a whole new understanding of the swing motion and forces that create clubhead speed. My swing has improved considerably and I am hitting much farther with less effort. Thanks! - T. Ciccone, recreational golfer, Bryan, OH
RIGHT NOW, YOU MAY BE THINKING AND DOING THINGS THAT ARE ACTUALLY IMPEDING YOUR
ACHIEVEMENT OF MORE DISTANCE. THIS BOOK CAN CHANGE ALL THAT. IT IS PART III IN A
POPULAR SERIES OF GOLF IMPROVEMENT BOOKS DESIGNED TO TRANSFORM THE MENTAL GOLF MINDSET
AND GOLF SWING.
The universal desire for more distance---
It is well-known that the desire for greater distance tops the "golf swing improvement
list" for most recreational golfers. In fact, corporate advertising, instructional
content, and television commentaries contribute to the public's insatiable demand.
"Hit it longer, play better" is a commanding theme of our time.
Unfortunately, for many golfers the path to achieving greater distance in their
golf swing improvement is a bumpy one filled with misconceptions, misguided mental
golf ideas, and ineffective physical techniques that lead to mis-hits, inconsistencies,
and other "detours" rather than getting to the desired goal. Simply put, most
golfers don't realize that the secret to more distance does NOT lie in "doing" more
or "trying" harder, so they keep pounding away without getting the results they
desire.
The new golf instructional book, GOODBYE HIT, HELLO SWING, PART III, sheds light
on the REAL "secret" to achieving more distance, a secret that is generally more
simple, straightforward, and stress-free than anything most golfers have tried before.
The book sets you straight and puts you on a positive path that leads more directly
to achieving your goal of greater distance. The "secret" lies in understanding
and working effectively with the natural swinging motion and speed-producing forces.
You need to work for swing power rather than against it ---
Without realizing it, most golfers are actually disrupting the flow of speed rather
than helping it. Here are some common mental golf and physical game ideas and actions
that inhibit the natural power-producing forces and lead to more problems rather
than more distance:
- Belief that the ball will not go far enough unless an adequately hard "hit" is
applied to it by means of physical effort.
- Trying to move the body at the ball faster to create more speed.
- Trying to hit at the ball harder to create more speed.
- Trying to force the clubhead at the ball faster to create more speed.
- Trying to "muscle" a shot with the upper body to create more speed.
- Trying to accelerate at the wrong point in the swing to create more power.
This HELLO SWING III golf instructional book helps you see and feel the golf swing
and swing speed in a whole new way so you can overcome limiting ideas and actions and develop mental golf and physical game techniques that take
maximum advantage of physical laws like gravity and momentum, and optimize your natural swing motion and power,
which are the real keys to more distance.
GOODBYE HIT, HELLO SWING, PART III builds upon the ideas and techniques presented
in PART I and PART II that help to establish the mindset and motion for an effortless,
repeatable golf swing. In Part III, you get insight, ideas, and guidance that will
have you significantly improving your clubhead speed, ball striking, and distance,
all in a stress-free, effortless manner. Along the way, you'll also fine-tune the
mental golf skills of focus and feeling which will help in other aspects of your
golf improvement as well.
Stand in on real-life golf lessons that take you through the process of tapping
into swing power and generating more distance ---
This golf instructional book is written in a unique, enjoyable, and effective format
that allows you to learn the stress-free solution to more distance through
a series of fictional golf lessons between a golf instructor, Harold, and a golf
student, Joe. You get to "listen in" as Joe gets step-by-step guidance and insight
on his path to understanding and making the most of gravity, acceleration, speed,
and the natural swinging action. You too will get drills, tips, and instructions,
along with Joe, that lead to effective golf swing improvement. The conversations
are chock-full of real-life wisdom that will change your mental golf mindset and
your physical approach, just like they did for Joe. Here are some examples:
Harold to Joe: From the start, I want you to disengage your mind
from the idea of swinging for the fences. The process of hitting the ball farther
begins with how to hit it better.
*****
Harold to Joe: You let gravity take you down, because it's the
speediest way. If you try to "goose it" early on, all you do is mess up the swinging
motion, which impedes your speed. The Place to emphasize the acceleration factor
is through the bottom portion, where the natural forces of power are reaching their
zenith, and the swinging action is thus very stable.
*****
Joe: For a while there, I felt like I was in such a perfect position
to really smash it.
Harold: And then you started getting faster and faster in the beginning
of the downswing, and it threw you off. So today we're going to work on a couple
of things that will help you mentally and physically to get your fastest speed in the
most advantageous spot.
*****
Harold to Joe: Trying to get clubhead lag can be just as harmful
as trying to force the clubhead at the ball faster, which is what most golfers do.
It is very difficult to consistently and successfully manipulate the clubhead, in
either fashion. Golfers spend untold hours on the practice range trying to groove
the "timing" of a perfect release, which seldom holds up for long. What they should
be working on is a natural swinging motion, where good timing is a built-in feature.
*****
Harold to Joe: Joe, you hit on the key mental concept that I want
you to take with you from this lesson. I want you to always think about the speed
as flowing speed, rather than something that must be produced in a sudden fashion.
Remember what Freddie (Couples) said, "...staying loose, letting speed build, and
accelerating all the way to the finish." It's a flowing application of power, never
a sudden jolt. Let's take a few out between the 250 and 275 signs. Same nice swing,
same good balance, a little more acceleration through the bottom.
*****
Joe: Ahhh...I was a little off-balance.
Harold: You didn't quite get your weight over first, and your hands
got a little quick. I sensed that you tensed up in your hands and upper body in
anticipation of a faster motion.
*****
Harold to Joe: Your number one best friend in golf is the effortless
swing. Along with your mental attitude, it's your game's most valuable asset, and
your foundation for gaining distance.
