Go here and sign up for more exclusive interviews with Jack, Chi Chi and Gary miracleswingexperience.com/

Gary is a member of our club in Boca Raton Fl. You could not find a nicer person to be with. He takes time to speak with all of the members and caddies. What a gentleman.

Nearly 85, look at him! Legend. He should talk about food, lifestyle and fitness

What a wonderful interview. Thank you so much Christo. I don’t know if many viewers realize this - Mr. Player is 85 years old! An absolutely amazing man in so many ways. When Gary mentions something you can take it to the bank. This man knows his stuff like few others.

I could listen to Gary Player all day. He's an absolute legend of the sport, is always so positive, and has a great mind for the game!

what's more impressive than anything is in what great shape gary is mentally and physically at that age

Mr. Garcia. I wanted to thank you. Because of your videos which summarized Ben Hogan's 5 lessons, I went from shooting in the high 90s last fall to shooting in the mid to high 70's now. With your simple explanation of Hogans five lessons and VERY HARD WORK anyone can become better at golf and have more fun!

Bobby Jones's swing was like butter. And I believe Mr. Hogan mimicked a lot of what Jones did in the swing.

Gary is one of my heroes.

Thank you for your vlogs. We have a lot in common with regards to who we want to emulate as far as the golf swing is concerned. I could watch Ben Hogan’s swing forever. And you are so lucky to be able to interview Gary Player. I think he is one of the best people in golf. I met him in 1987 at Pacific Golf Club in San Clemente Ca. He gave a clinic on bunker play and it helped me a lot. I got an autographed portrait of him which I kept all these years later. He’s one of my all time favorites.

I'm 57. I hit the ball just as well as when I was 27. Why? Natural Light beer. If you want to play your best and be healthy, start drinking Natural Light. 12-15 per day will make you feel great. Hydration is the key to longevity.

Thanks for your excellent interview

have not been here in a while. looking forward to this series!

Amazing job! Incredible that you are interviewing the Black Knight!

Impressive that Player connects with you. Sir, You have arrived and its so special...Great work

When Mr Player lists all the great putters, I seem to recall that Mr Player was quite a useful putter himself. He'd certainly be on my list.

Love your passion for the game Christo. It’s a beautiful thing.

I got to meet Player once. Wonderful gentleman.

this vid is a gema 💎👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Thanks greetings Santiago Chile 🇨🇱

All facts bobby Jones 💯 GOAT

A true gentleman and a great golfer.

This gentleman certainly knows what he is talking about.

Player is a stud, too. The Jack LaLanne of golf.

I discovered golf the Summer of my 12th year. I don't remember how I got Power Golf (5 Lessons book later). It must have been TV, but I fell in love with Hogan. I think he is the only man that I truly idolized. I have spent 65 years mining the knowledge he passed on, and the attitude. I deeply appreciate your work and excellent presentation method. I believe you are helping to keep alive this greatest of sports and character building pursuit in a generation much ruined by marxist design.

For me, the most impressive golf swing is Greg Norman's...he absolutely smashed it with a passion like no-one else.

what Gary fails to mention is the fact that swing coachers make a fortune in teaching old tricks

Wow! Gary Player is a Gentleman's Gentleman.

On learning golf by percy boomer is a must read!

The Bobby Jones comments are really eye opening especially cause not a single teaching pro now would ever teach their students to swing like that. It's almost like all golf teachers nowadays just say the same things sadly.

Love Bobby Jones swing. Yes it was geared towards hickory shafts but it had great flow and tempo.

A buddy and I went to the Players Championship a number of years ago. When we got there, we were like we could either go golfing or visit the Golf Hall of Fame. We chose the GHoF. And who happened to be there? Mr. Player. 👍

when i want to make sure to hit the fairway, i do the Gary Player walk-through follow through. not sure why it works, but it does.

That was a nice tribute

Had no idea you were doing interviews with legends! Nice one man loved it a true legend of a man in many ways

Christo, I'm new to the channel. I absolutely love the content! I do have some advice though...pan your dialog to the center. Some of the interviews have the voice panned either severely to the Left or Right. The voices will be more clear and up front if they're panned Center.

I see what Player is saying about the golf swing not really have changed much over time and generally the fundamentals do remain the same so he’s not wrong. But I also agree with the big difference being a swing based in rotation and slight lateral shift to one based on creating elastic tension. I think that is causes either injuries or harder to reproduce on older or smaller players. It seems like the older generation greats remained strong in their older ages where modern players tend to struggle more.

Gary Player may be the best putter of all time. He putted with a closed stance, right foot pointed in slightly, and he would pop the ball, without much follow through. Stab at it slightly, with hands slightly ahead. At his peak, nobody putted better. He kept his head and body perfectly still, rarely looking up early.

I've got that Percy bloomer book, just haven't read it yet😀 Also got a 1954 book 'My Swing' by Henry Cotton - he emphasised how important it was to keep the elbows together and thought that he had an advantage because he had long arms (like Hogan and Player) and could keep his forearms touching all the way up to his elbows with his arms straight. Also got another of my dad's old (1953 - Hogans year!) called 'The Way to Golf' by Harry Weetman, who was the longest hitter in Britain at the time. As a kid Harry made his first club himself out of a piece of wood and the professional at the local club saw this and gave him a job in the shop and then later as his assistant, which started his golf career.

Your MSE TV is thought provoking and compels the golfer into discovering the best swing for themselves. I recommend it to everyone who loves golf and enjoy your many discussions around it. Having said this. I now know that there is no actual backswing or a downswing; but 2 upswings. Think about it. Although I never read Percy Boomer book, he may have said the above first since I know he was the first to talk about not chasing after the ball and swinging in a barrel. The only way this could happen is as we are swinging our club our right shoulder rotates up 20 degrees range of motion and then our lead shoulder rotates up twenty degrees range of motion with both shoulders leveling off at the end of our 2 upswing. As long as we are in our golf posture the rest of our body must respond automatically. And follow the lead of our shoulders If golf was only taught more the real and less the feel by the PGA we all would become decent golfers.Cheers Wonder if Gary Player ever heard that one. Cheers

I agree; there is nothing new in golf, other than more sophisticated golf equipment and better manicured golf courses. Hard work and lots of practice is the “secret.”

Hogans swing mechanics were so simple yet so effective. Kind of like Bob Ross and his painting. Anyone can learn to paint just like anyone can learn to golf.

Great

Gary Player = an incredible man

MR. PLAYER is correct Bobby jones was phenomenal 4 us opens,3 opens,5 us ams,1 British am all before the age of 28 when he retired. He collected trophies and degrees during this time going MONTHS without touching a club. I have a dvd of his complete set of instructional films with Hollywood stars, in one he is hitting his spoon probably the smaller one which is a 3 or 4 wood into a green from a fairway 265 yards out, every one landed inside a small circle almost holing 3 of them. That was with equipment like Gary said at least 100 yards shorter than today's ball and clubs. He also playef during the stymie years, you couldn't lift clean and place the ball on the green. He could regularly chip over a ball and into the cup. His contemporary players said he could hit his driver 300 or more if he wanted to but always played within himself. Many experts feel Bobby with his swing could hit far more than the 100 yard deficit that Gary said. He built a larger wood club he called the dreadnaught that he hit extremely long but never used it in competition, they didn't have sand wedges in his day and bunkers and rough were truly penalizing but he could stop a niblick on a dime that was his most lofted club, basically a nine iron. He could hit draws, fades,high, low and could back up a 3 wood. He founded the Masters tournament to stay in touch with old friends. He won 45% of every tournament he entered, that is just mystifying.

You should check out Wild Bill Melhorn in a book called Golf Secrets Revealed by Robert Shave and Bill Melhorn

Gary Player such a good role model

I still like the way Milo Lines teaches, which has more of a dip and turn instead of so much activity in the legs, but is maybe less torquey than some of the 'modern' teachings. Has a simplicity of movement plus a stable club face path that may be better for an amatuer to use as there's less moving parts to tune with practise. Plus he's a big baseball swing fan, like Hogan. He does look a bit reverse-pivoty sometimes though, so maybe a touch more weight shift. I also like the Cestone twins as that is very Hoganesque, but maybe too technical for an amatuer that can't spend hours practising. Swing perspectives when you can practise all the time are different than those for people with less practise time - 'feels' are different.

1:28 LOL@ Jack Nicklaus when he says, "Hogan will never talk to you---well Hogan talked to me a lot". I'm sure Mr. Hogan respected Jack's game, which if anything, is the reason why he talked with Jack a lot, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't very much, lol.

How good to listen to a true great of the game. Like Gary says there's no such thing as the modern swing because there's only one way the human anatomy will allow the body to arrive at impact. Unless evolution the way we humans are built, the golf swing cannot change.

I wonder what Ben Hogan thought, of Trevino, when he first saw him swing??

Sam Snead had a great looking swing too.

Can you do a video on George Knudson?

#1 Jack Nicklaus, only 5 11 175lbs driving par 4s with a heavy steel shaft Persimmon driver. #2 Ben Hogan, enough said. #3 Eldrick Woods years 2000 to 2002.

I won $120 off him about 15 years back. Closest to the pin contest. First I won twenty, then $100. He wasn’t going to let me go until he won it back. Next for $1,000. Yeah he won it back but signed my $20 bill and let me keep it! He was incredible.

5:21 "there's no such thing as a modern day swing". Byron Nelson would blanche at that, seeing how he wrote a book called Swing the Modern Way lol. He stated that golfers transitioning from wood shaft to steel were all hooking badly and had to make adjustments resulting in the body motions we see now (for the most part). Great interview!

Everyone please note: Bobby Jones had a CUPPED left wrist at the top, yes CUPPED CUPPED CUPPED. So did other true greats - including Bobby Locke, Freddie Couples, and yes, even Hogan had a slightly cupped left wrist.

Tiger's swing was new. Completely different. It gets harder as you get older because it puts so much stress on your back.

Alive legend...

Why does no one talk about Moe Norman and his ball striking ability.

Here is something for Mr. Player: Dave Pelz says that putting is mostly face angle (and a little path). The tendency to "roll" the hands by twisting the wrists is the major cause of face angle change during the stroke. All methods strive to limit face angle change but if you can hold your putter behind the ball and "roll" your hands (wrists) then you can change the face angle at impact. I use a large grip (stroke saver) face balanced putter with the trail hand low. I rotate the lead (top) hand as far closed as it can go and grip the putter. I rotate the trail (bottom) hand as far closed as it can go and grip the putter. From above, you will see all the knuckles and the backs of both hands. Basically, both hands are trying to open and close the putter face at the same time. Try as you might, you cannot get that putter face to budge off of the face angle that is square to the target. Putting on your selected line becomes really easy as the putter face cannot change its face angle during the stroke. Give it a try, it works for me. :)

Moe Norman and MORAD are arguably novel approaches to the golf swing.

Not a single word on Mike Austin? :-)

Old doggs tell best first date stories! Good to hear an old playa tell it like it is about the game!

“Nothing new” completely agree with Mr. Player. The technology in the ball and clubs is the only thing separating todays players from the past, well in addition to lack of personality and passion, that’s a whole other video. Hand Jack or Arnie modern equipment they’d hit the ball just as far if not farther than any players today. Actually one thing that’s much different today is the ridiculous fitness programs and the associated injuries they’ve caused players. Tiger, Koepka, Speith, Dechambeau…the list is long.

I think probably the biggest change to teaching in golf is the use of high speed cameras and launch monitors. These things basically just give mathematicians an ability to tell you how to swing at it (launch angles, attack angles, etc.). I don't disagree at all with the fact that the swing hasn't changed all that much, but guys can really zero in on what they need to do to get optimum efficiency at a very detailed level.

perhaps mentioned before but if you’re not a tour golfer, watch mickey wright. that’s not my advice, thats bens.

Attention Christo Garcia: I wish you would do some interviews and segments on the absolute disgusting trend in golf where music (noise) is allowed on the golf course. I don't care how low the volume is, a golf course is mostly wide open spaces. Sound travels a great distance no matter the volume. The course was supposed to be the last sanctuary of solitude and concentration. You can listen to the birds sing and leaves rustle and all the other beautiful sounds that accompany nature. Having to put up with guys/girls driving golf carts all around you with music blaring, defeats the entire purpose of the golf experience.

Gary is the greatest sand player EVER....

Bobby Locke!

Attention Christo Garcia: A gentleman would have removed his cap once he entered the house.

Best looking swing ever was Tom Weiskoff's.

Even Player would admit that today's equipment requires a different swing. It may not be 'new' in the sense that no one ever tried it, but old equipment simply didn't lend itself to a power game. Jones' swing wouldn't work as well today, and nor would today's work better then. In his day, it was finesse and touch that mattered, and no one had more than Bobby Jones.

Can't be all bad, had children go to BYU

Percey Boomer (hey boomer) . . .swing in a barrel. My roommate in college back in the late 70s was the best player on our team. He swore by that book.

Moe Norman

Moe Norman???

Cristo you are doing golf a great favor. You know Hogan was probably the best ball striker of all time. Where ever Hogan went to play in a tournament he would draw the crowd. People would come from all over too just see Hogan legendary ball striking. Just amazing. Player looking good. Takes good care of himself. Keep it up.

Seems like he didn’t rate Byron Nelson although he won 11 tournaments in a row….

You can't talk about golf and not mention Seve...

I must respectfully disagree with Gary Player. Players of the past were great but mechanically, they had too many moving parts. And the best swings today are seen on the LPGA tour.

Ben Hogan was the best putter of time, according to Bobby Locke

Second best....Moe Norman is number 1

. 1:10 1:14 3:39 .

was Hogan like Adam Scott bad at putting or something?

Why are you wearing a hat in the house? Good manners would dictate you remove your hat when entering a house.

Bobby’s was better

Ask Tom Watson about Player. Sick and tired of his constant cheating.

I love Gary but ref the swing he’s limited and a little misslead

Thank goodness there's none of this Moe Norman rubbish. Im sick and tired of nonsense a out him that collapses with just an ouce of critical thinking. But of course, the bs will never stop because people want to believe it.

I would not seek the advice of Gary Player for anything.

You're all dreaming Moe Norman was the best ball-striker that ever lived

Moe Norman hit six pins second shot in one round, Jones or Hogan couldn't come course neither any other human
