But my performance was really disappointing and I even began to doubt that I could never be able to play it until days ago a friend of mine recommended me this ebook “The Simple Golf Swing”, also called “Golf Swing Guru”. It is the best selling golf swing book authored by David Nevogt, who is a golf expert and a great golf teacher. I have to say that this book is really helpful in solving your swing problems.

The historical feud between Michelangelo (feel) and Da Vinci (mechanical) comes to mind as they both created fantastic works of art. In the golf swing there is always an individual combination of feel/mechanics going on. Those who feel create the mechanics and those who focus on the mechanics create the feel. Every one will be different between the two ends of the spectrum. The point missing is that the PPGS swing creates a simple, repeatable move to apply the club head on the ball so it is moving linearly down the target line at impact. In reference to Charlie's point about kinesiology there are four movements possible; body rotation, vertical hinge with the wrists, vertical arm movement and arm rotation. Stance and grip will influence how these movements are assembled and released. First the body rotation. This is simply the body rotating around the spine. In the PPGS the knees restrict the lower part of the body which helps create the 3/4 swing and keeps the club head out of the SBG. Second the vertical arm hinge. The amount of hinging possible will be determined by the grip. In the PPGS there is limited hinging due to the back hand being square to the club face and the front hand turned slightly strong. This will help the club head get into the best position in which to add speed as the club falls down into impact. Vertical arm hinge is lifting the arms and hands up and away from the body. In the PPGS it starts very quietly and reaches a crescendo as the club goes up the tree. Lastly the fore arm rotation. The fore ward arm rotates so the toe remains vertical when the club is parallel to the ground. This helps keep the club out of the SBG also. In assembling the individual's swing it is unimportant if one uses feel or mechanics to get the correct positions. The key is to swing the club back so the butt end swings parallel to the target line. Having the knees and feet parallel make this a lot easier. The back swing can be made with the forward arm/hand, back arm/hand or a combination of both. When the club is swung along the toe line with the fore arm rotation keeping the toe vertical the back arm will fold slightly. Because the butt end of the club is moving linearly along the toe line with a slight amount of arm rotation and the knees controlling too much body rotation the vertical arm lift will swing the club up the tree to the top and out of the SBG. The 3/4 limited turn keeps the club head high off the ground which adds speed to the downswing. The bump fore ward is crucial. It helps the arms reverse the vertical lift from the back swing linearly so the right elbow drops in front of the back hip. This is the position all great ball strikers achieve. This lets the back arm straighten and release the stored up energy into the ball as it straightens and the fore arm rotation returns the club face squarely down the target line. The hips then rotate towards the target and swinging up to the T is easy to attain. How you create your swing, whether feel or mechanical is less important than understanding where the club goes and how it gets to the Mitt and up the Tree and drops into the release position so the back arm can give power and accuracy at impact. Myself I use one thought at the start and that is to "plane" the lower part of the shaft so it moves back along the target line. Every thing else falls into place.
