Dear golfers Tao of Golf method


Dear golfers;
If you're at all considering trying this swing training system, please read this article and if you have to, print it out and take it with you. Its on the long side but I think the information inside it will give you an insight into why more and more people are using the Tao of Golf method to easily learn the golf swing and more importantly, why more and more golf instructors are devising swing training systems after this Eastern teaching model. The Eastern teaching method has been in existence for centuries because it works. Please read on…
In this video I take you through some very effective exercises in the first half of the tape that are designed to teach the feeling of whipping the club through the point-of-impact without forcing you to agonize about what's going on everywhere in your body, which would only confuse you. Basically, I want you to take your brain out of the swing and learn it with your body.
The second half takes you through contact drills if you're a beginner, and more advanced practice if you're a more experienced player. Including how to curve the ball whichever way you need it to go.
The way that I've put this system together is the way that martial arts systems are put together. It's really simple. Please let me explain how a martial arts system is built. On day one, the student is shown something that is needed to build upon for the next lesson. When I say needed, I mean it. The first thing that you learn in a dojo (training hall) is usually how to stand up and move your feet. Why? Because is you can't stand up and use your feet correctly, you will never learn the rest of the system the way it's supposed to be learned.
Without learning the day-one stuff, you may as well toss everything else out the window because its never going to be as effective as it could be AND nothing will ever make sense to you. Without this vital material, nothing else will ever work.
Let me apply a martial arts line of thinking to golf for a second. In the west, most people try to golf at a "black belt" level without ever getting a day-one "white belt" lesson and learning the necessary fundamentals. It's totally backwards. However, it's not anybody's fault. It's just the way it is.
You see, people get all types of instruction form every kind of source available. There's magazines, tips on TV, buddies putting their two cents in every time you swing, etc, etc. It can get very confusing and before long, you're so confused, you don't know who's telling you the truth, who's a well-meaning, misguided novice and who really is going to help you. In fact, you're about ready to give up and resign to the fact that you'll ALWAYS be a short-hitting hacker, duffer and slicer and never be an ace.

Do you really want to spend a lifetime wondering if you had the potential to shoot par?
Do you really want to spend your time wondering what the secret to effortlessly hitting long straight drives and hitting the greens in regulation is, and wondering how it is that some people have it so easy and why you have it so hard?
I've put Tao of Golf together the same way that a martial arts system is structured. The very first body movement that you'll learn (Shoulder Turns) is an absolutely necessary and vital component of a correct golf swing and what you'll build upon in building your swing throughout the whole program. Without it, you'll never reach your potential and you'll never begin to feel what a proper, powerful swing feels like. This exercise is the most vital base movement of the golf swing. Period. At least the way I teach it…
I'll let you in on another secret…every time you do the additional exercises in the system; you're reinforcing the first, vital exercise that you learned in the first segment, which makes it more and more permanent. Remember, practice makes permanent. Perfect practice makes perfect!
The bottom line is that you NEED this base movement. And after you learn it, you'll recognize it within the swing of every single tour player and ace amateur that you see swing. You'll be saying, "Why didn't I notice that years ago?" But once you have it, you'll have it forever. That's the great thing about this system. It contains what every pro golfer uses in his swing to be powerful and what you need to bring your game to the next level and reach your potential.

Here's why I believe the Eastern way to teach golf is superior

Traditionally in martial arts, there is a formal, disciplined relationship between the student and the sensei (teacher). This relationship is necessary for the students benefit because the reasons that one is doing a certain exercise isn't always explained to the student. Sometimes, the drills are quite tedious. However, every one of them is considered necessary and has a specific goal.
The sensei tells the student to "do this" and the student does it until he understands why. He doesn't ask why…that would be very disrespectful. He just does it. Westerners would think this as arrogance. It's quite the opposite. There are many reasons for this method of teaching.
Here in the West, we're so wrapped up in wanting to know everything about everything, that we get lost in the "whys" instead of learning the "how-tos." 
If the sensei were to go on and on with an explanation of all of the physics involved in a simple punch, he'd cloud the students mind so badly that he would never learn a most simplest of day-one techniques. This is called information constipation, and is the biggest reason that most amateur golfers can't hit the ball straight. It's just more economical to do it the Eastern way. Why confuse the student?

"Wax on, wax off."

With the Eastern way, the teacher is not wrapped up in needing to explain the deeper meanings and reasons that everything works. Like I said before, the student is told to "do it this way" and he does it. He'll learn the what's and why's later. In the beginning, he needs a foundation in the proper mechanics and there's only one way to do this…by doing it, not analyzing it. If you remember the old "wax on, wax off" drill from the movie The Karate Kid. You'll know what I mean here.
You have to put in the reps to get skilled and that's all there is to it. There's plenty of time to learn the physics if you stay with it. But you need to learn the foundation of the movements to get a grasp of how to be powerful. If all you did were agonize and analyze instead of actually doing it, you'd never be able to defend yourself with the techniques!

Practice, practice, practice

In golf as well as martial arts, practice does not make "perfect" as much as it makes "permanent." With the Eastern method contained in Tao of Golf, you'll make perfect practice into a permanent good swing.

My Tai-Chi swing…

The method that I teach is a simple way to "burn in" the necessary mechanics that 99% of amateur golfers have no idea how to use, and, what keeps them from breaking 80, 90 or even 100. The slow deliberate practice of the Tai-Chi swing at the end of the video is borrowed from an ancient Eastern way to train body movement first developed centuries ago by the founders of Tai-Chi Chuan.
Considered the father of all Eastern martial arts, Tai Chi is learned and trained in meticulous slow motion and constantly refined over a lifetime of practice.
I know that most people have never seen Tai Chi demonstrated dynamically, but let me tell you I know from hard, first-hand experience that the dynamic application of the technique is truly devastating. In fact, the reason that the soft, whipping power in golf is effective is precisely why you see little young guys like Sergio out-drive the big guys. It's all technique, not muscle. This is nothing new.
Tai Chi uses the same exact technique to generate power in strikes that golfers use to hit long straight shots without big muscles. However, without the proper mechanics and the use of correct body structure, generating effortless power is impossible. Hence the slow, deliberate practice utilized and refined over a lifetime.
The Tao of Golf system gets the student started on the road to that effective technique and in the second half of the video; I take the student to the driving range to develop the swing more dynamically. I'll demonstrate my simple drills and show you how anyone can do it with this exceptional technique.
What really works is that after learning and training the swing without hitting any balls, I ask the student to forget about mechanics I teach to swing while the ball is "in the way." This is what every amateur golfer needs to understand, bar none. In order to be powerful, one must swing and not hit.
The average weekend golfer will try so hard to "hit the ball" that his swing becomes a chop and will stop at the ball. This, every pro knows, will actually slow down a swing instead of improve it and its one of the most elusive concepts in golf to teach and grasp an understanding of. However, I think that I've developed a system that will show any golfer this little-known feeling of a powerful swing in this professionally produced, well-done, one-hour video.
This video is a great step-by-step tutorial on how to develop a smooth fluid, effortless swing in 30 days or less and I give you my personal guarantee that you'll learn what makes a swing powerful and effective in the opening minutes. Give it a try and see why people all over the world are using this system to quickly and easily improve their swing and overall game.
Like what you've learned?


I like this method of golf instruction because it is a easy to learn and B you don`t get all this put your arm there, or there, use your right side, swing on plane or inside the plane line, swing thoughts that make you go nuts or feelig like you have to remember a lot of stuff, I`ve seen the video, owned it and it is unique and makes you feel like your are learning to play by feel without the jargon, there is a reason Amazon can`t keep the dvd in stock, and Mark Anthony seems honest and is straightfoeward, there are drills as well to get the method down.
