Information
Welcome to Sneaky Simple Golf's guide to golf tips and techniques! We're here to help you improve your game with simple effective strategies.
Overcoming Common Golf Challenges
Golfers always ask me - "How can I swing the same way every swing?" The truth is you can't, philosophically speaking.
Sneaky Simple Golf will make you understand what your club should be doing and how your body should move during the swing.
The Power of Static Checkpoints and Feeling a Fluid and Repeatable Swing Motion
The club and all body parts must be in specific 'positions' during your swing. These positions need to be understood and checked periodically if you are having consistency issues. However, it is impossible to hit the ball if you just focus on club and body positions alone.
The club and body positioning must follow a fluid swing, in desired sequence at the correct time.
We use only Sneaky Simple drills to perfetcly sync club and body positions with a fluid swing motion.
Simple Fundamentals, Powerful Results
What sets Sneaky Simple Golf apart? Our strategies are built on basic fundamentals shared by all great golfers, not fleeting gimmicks. We focus on golf swing fundamentals taught by all PGA Teaching Professionals.
We will simplify and explain:
1) Club shaft and face position at takeaway. 2) Club shaft and face postion at 'end' of backswing. 3) Club shaft and face positon in transition. 4) Clubface position just before impact and at impact. 5) Clubface and arm position after impact.
We will always share equal time, if not more attention to how to feel what a smooth, fluid, repeatable golf swing really is. See below - Instant Improvement Tip
Instant Improvement Tip
You want a real eye-opener??
Try making a full swing without a ball. Imagine throwing the club as far down range as possible straight to your target. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A CLEAR OPEN FIELD - ESPECIALLY TO YOUR LEFT AND BEHIND!
What happened?
Has anyone tried the drill where you literally throw the club away?
My golf pro had me try it the other night. Basically you swing without a ball and instead focus on throwing the club. The object is to release the club at the impact position and try to throw the club low and straight. Anyone who scoops or casts the club (even just slightly) will throw the club high and left.
I picked this up quite quickly and was amazed when I looked at the video comparisons. Where before I would cast the club early, when I threw the club low and straight I had lag like Tiger Woods and an absolutely perfect impact position (albeit without a ball ).
The intention then is to get the feeling of what this feels like, then try to slowly implement it into your actual swing.
