Question: Has anyone tried the simple golf swing instructional series?

(Posted by: devin_07_sh on 2010-02-28 12:23:26)

I'm a terrible golfer. Never had an lessons or anyone who could really help me out. Its really frustrating and I'm trying to find some videos or something that can help. The simple golf system looks like its a super dumbed down swing, that if explained well, could lead me to being able to play golf with some consistency. I was just wondering if anyone has tried it and could recommend it or explain why I should avoid. Here is the website http:/ / www.simplegolf.com/ (I don't even have a hadicap, usually I hit a decent shot about 25 % of the time, if not I'll top it or shank it into the woods.

I have been golfing for over 30 years. I had only broken 90 twice in my life. I was hitting a driver about 220-230 and a 5 iron about 150. I started Simple Swing about 3 years ago. After watching the first DVD, I went to the driving range. By the time I got thru the first bucket of balls, I was hitting driver 250 to 270 and 8 iron 150 yds. In three yrs since I started Simple Swing my average score has dropped almost ten strokes. I have had 2 rounds in the 70s and usually shoot in the mid to upper 80s. This may not sound that great, but you need to understand that I have like zero athletic ability. Simple Swing is easy to learn and maintain. They have a great user forum and Mike and Joe will answer your questions and look at your swing videos for no extra charge. The customer support is the best I have seen in the industry. The also have clinics at various locations around the country. I would recommend it to anyone.

Devin_07, I feel your pain. I know your frustration. I been where you are. I am a self taught golfer. You can be too. That is not to say I didn't get an education on the golf swing. I have. It is just that I didn't learn what I know from a teaching pro. I didn't pay $150 + per hour to learn to play to the 15 handicap I have now. But I did learn from others. You are smart to look for some help. You'll enjoy the game so much more when you have better control of where the ball goes. The folks at Simple Golf have put together a sound instructional program with "The Symple Swing ". For those struggling with the golf swing a single plane swing is the best approach to learning a reliable golf swing quickly. The price is an easy $27 and the 90 day money back guarantee makes the choice an easy one for anyone that has the least interest in improving their golf swing. You could probably save that much on the golf balls you don't loose with a swing that keeps it on the course somewhere. That should be just one of the resources you use to get better. And the best resource I ever had is a ebook titled "How to Break 80...and Shoot Like the Pros ".
