Professional golfers are switching to the Single Plane Golf Swing because its consistent and it makes sense. Quite frankly, it is just simple. What makes it even better is that there is a clearly defined model. In this video, Josh Bamberger, a Canadian Professional shares his experience learning the Single Plane Swing and how it has helped transform and simplify his game.
About the Single Plane Golf Swing:
The Single Plane golf swing is not a quick fix golf technique. It is a system, beginning at address, that simplifies the most important moment of the golf swing - impact.
Starting at address on two planes where the arms hang straight down at address, the Conventional golf swing is complicated. Because the arms are hanging straight down, a conventional golfer must lift the body into impact creating stress on the back. This upward movement to accommodate the two planes is unnecessary. The Single Plane Golf swing simplifies the golf swing by eliminating the need for the upward movement by starting and impacting on the same plane.

Great work Josh and Todd. You could have covered all of those shots with a bed sheet. I'm 67 and have had some right arm and wrist injuries. I can't swing like I used to. I've been watching your videos all winter and practicing the swing out in the barn. I went to the driving range today and once I figured out how far to stand from the ball, every shot was straight and about 190 yards of carry. I feel like you've given me my golf life back. Thank you

Mr. Graves,I am in awe of your knowlege and ability to articulate that information in the way you teach so with enormous amounts of respect for you and your mentor Mr.pipeline Mo Norman I ask why are there not more world class players doing this and with it being so consistant why in your opinion does Bryson spray the ball all over the lot!Thank you sir!

I no longer worry why more tour players dont utilize better swing mechanics. I spend my time teaching thousands of golfers who are benefiting from an easier swing. Bryson needs to simplify and purify his technique and stop worrying about distance so much.

@@ToddGravesGolf - Bryson sold out to the bomb and gouge way of playing and in doing so has insured that that is the only way he can now play as his crazy club head speed insures he will hit very few fairways and will struggle with controlling distance with the scoring clubs. Time will tell if this works for him in the long run. He did win a US Open which is hard to ignore. I personally am very disappointed that he is choosing to sell out for the Saudi blood money. BTW I am from Bryson’s hometown (Fresno, CA) and took some single plane lessons from his long time coach Mike Schy about 20 years ago.

Thank you for this! Really enjoy watching different people swing with your method. It's interesting that he stands so firm with both feet on ground all the time. It's probably a great way to practice to never go up on your toes, because it can easily lead to you lifting the heal too early?

The most important thing is not "invading" the hitting space! GO back and watch the older golfers, Boros, Snead, Litler, etc and you will find most of them were flat footed and (chased) the club head!

5:32 - Weight moves toward the target while the backswing is not yet finished. Hallmark of all great swings. This allows the shaft to load and we can easily see he is creating a nice amount of lag. We also see that he does not roll the clubface over too much, keeping that face pointing more towards the target longer. The lag does the work of propelling the ball, no need in trying to time clubface roll. I also think keeping the trail foot down longer can help to keep the clubface on the target line better, longer. Awesome content and interaction Todd. Excellent video!

@ironsideeve2955 2 жыл бұрын

Iron numbers dont really mean anything… you need to know degrees, shaft and ball model. Bryson uses stronger than usual lofts and has a single shaft length. Adam Scott (and Tiger) uses an older, spinnier ball and deliberately gives up distance for control and consistency.

@rickcudmore8156 2 жыл бұрын

It must be satisfying hitting straight laser shots. What is the distance in inches from his toes to the ball with the 7i? I ask because at 5'3" I'm trying to find a proper distance.

@ToddGravesGolf 2 жыл бұрын

Are your clubs properly fit? The average distance from toe-line to ball is 25 inches with a 7 iron. This requires a properly fit club with proper length and lie angle.

What I notice about all these great single planers - it's that they have absolutely zero pelvic shift. It's such a crucial element of the swing. Unless your in absolute control of your pelvis you won't hit it well.

My question may seem silly but why do we need a back swing at all to hit the ball? This question in my mind just takes the principles your teaching which Moe performed to the end result which is to move forward with the swing. Your demonstration even proves it is not necessary. Why can’t we just go to the top position making sure we’re on plane and swing forward from there? Mr. Norman even suggest the minimalistic approach to the back swing by placing the club head a foot behind the ball to eliminate excess movement so why not eliminate the entire back swing - what real purpose does it provide in hitting the ball forward?

I was doing that 25 years ago. (former baseball player) so why wouldn't you start from the top??? You'd take out almost 50% of the problems. Imagine a baseball player holding the bat in front of himself and then cranking it back and then forward?
