I see I watched this 8 years ago; good to review instruction by Bob Toski; excellent lesson

I remember him on TV many years ago saying to "feel the club in your hands and the ground at your feet" as the essence of a swing motion. If my grip or any other body parts start to tighten up I always revert to this to regain my rhythm.

The book he co authored with Jim Flick in the 80's basically destroyed my swing for a number of years until I realized what he was selling wouldn't work for most golfers. He wanted golfers to set up with their weight favoring their right side on most full shots with a distinct tilt of the upper body to the right. He called this being in the K position. This makes it nearly impossible to get off your right side on the downswing unless you have perfect timing with each shot. Johnny Miller called this move "swaying and staying", which is exactly what I did. Even here on his practice swings you can see how much he sways off the ball to the right which is a death move for your average golfer, because you rarely get back to the same position you had at address so you wind up hitting from your right side instead of transferring your weight to the left prior to impact.

Assuming this was filmed in 2013 Bob was 87 years of age! He's 94 now and would probably still kick my ass on the course.😊

Just fantastic, this fella is awesome. Inside of the top 10 instructors as far as providing reasoning to the action. Thank you Bob Toski, and love those little rhymes. 🍻

What a great teacher, no impossible technical nonsense just common sense.

Wow what a way to explain the critical concepts of golf swing in such a simple way. Thanks a ton Bob for the excellent tips

Bob is a golf genius, thank you sir! ⛳️

Bustin' rhymes and layin' down the ka-nowledge!

Bob Toski = finesse. His custom iron sets were very good. I still have an old set from the 90's for dry, hard courses that has very low bounce and plays great in the desert.

Bob Toski is awesome.

Thanks Thanks Thanks Pro , what a Lesson about the Golf-swing

I miss Kesler. He is a great voice gor golf. Should be back at the golf channel.

Loved the “ball is going to wait for you. Why is everyone in a hurry to get to the ball?” I literally laughed out loud in this restaurant. :)

Love this video - it's so simple.

this is a gem!

Nobody knew about the "d-plane" back then. That's the reason we hit the ball right of the target so often. Essentially the club face IS NOT SQUARE until it bottoms out in FRONT of the ball. That means at the moment of contact, the face is still open to the target line by just a bit. That "bit" is where he's hitting the ball to. To correct this he should be aiming a little left so the face IS SQUARE to the line at the moment of contact.

Awesome lesson from the Mouse !

Odd (maybe oddly comforting) how much of Toski's recommendations sound like those of Brian Sparks (and now Julian Mellor); e.g. easy swing, moving lightly from trail to lead foot as if you were dancing. Sparks was and still is roasted by many "professional instructors" for being a huckster, offering snake oil to the amateurs who either can't or won't adopt the "proper" swing. Note I have absolutely NO affiliation with "Easiest Swing" other than noticing it a few years ago and buying the book. I'm just saying there's no one "right" way to swing the golf club and when instructors insist otherwise you should put your hand on your wallet, turn and run away.

Secrets well kept !

Push and pull means you will be off plane. That idea would work if your shoulders never rotated during the swing. You should stay connected on the back swing.

Great

It seems to me, Bob, you know what the hell you’re doing, unlike us hacks. Would you concur?

What should the golfer be thinking as he makes the shift turn, NOTHING. That’s the problem with amateurs, thinking of all the complicated moves in order to hit a ball. Actually, you are not hitting the ball, you are swinging through it. Why do instructors want to make this so complicated, maybe it gives them job security. Many, many lessons!

Ahh, the “Golden Age” of Golf Channel. Before NBC got their greedy little hands on it.

nice old man

I just have to ask if when you throw a ball overhand your eyes switch planes and that creates a movement that pulls the ball left (right handed) why then does every major league pitcher not miss the plate left and hit big pull slices on the golf course

Great video!

Exhausting

Hey bob got a Marlboro?

any way to get transcript?the sound on my computer sucks.

So this is the guy responsible for golfers not improving and that's a fact and another fact is the so called game improvement clubs is nothing but cleaver marketing

What a load of crap. You cannot teach the physically inept to play golf or any other sport.
