this is the single best lesson that i have seen in all of the vids i have watched....put it to use with instant success. thanks guys....you have won a new fan.
Fantastic! Thank you for the glowing feedback. We are delighted to hear you have found instant success implementing this into your game and we're thrilled to have you onboard. Make sure to check out our other videos, there's plenty more you will find beneficial to your game.
Gentlemen I am loving the content and the quality of your videos. I used to watch Sean’s videos going back many years and I am delighted you are back extolling the virtues of the easiest swing philosophy. The lessons I had over the last 2 years set my game back to the point I nearly quit. My handicap actually went up as my mind got bogged down in positions and technique. I am now going through a process of rediscovering my love of the game through the simple joy of body movement and finding my rhythm and your coaching is helping so much. I even purchased the hole in one trainer off your site today…. Tips hat
Thank you very much for the kind endorsement Chris. We hear this exact story you've shared more often than most would believe. So many golfers come to Easiest Swing after trying conventional coaching, because they haven't improved, have often got worse or are about to give up entirely. We are here to challenge your beliefs and remind you to trust your capabilities as a golfer. Golf should be easy and fun. Enjoy your Hole in One, we are sure you will love it as much as we do.
Another original and interesting peespective from ES. We are often told to have straight left arm in line with driver but now I see that the driver is designed to have our hands behind the club at address. 👍☘
This is one jewel of a video Gentlemen! You both are very deliberate and concise in explaining the difference in setting up to the ball with an iron as opposed to a driver! Well Done to You Both!!!!
Absolutely brilliant guys,yes i am definetely one of the 95%,but thanks to you i will take more care to set up properly in future with Driver. Really enjoying your channel.Michael Scotland.
Thanks for a fabulous series of videos. I've been looking over them this past 7days and already feeling more positive when I pick up any club plus the dace is certainly helpful with my ballance and tempo.😊I'd forgotten my finish at the end of the swing but it's back to stay hopefully.
When I came to realize with age (75) that I could no longer count on the driver for distance I binned it in favour of my new driver, the 3 wood. The 3 wood isn’t exactly the best substitute for the driver because of its smaller face. Miss hits occurred as I tried to achieve similar distance but more accuracy,so I dropped down to a 5 wood that plays well as the 3 wood at about 175 yards and consistently in the middle of the fairway. As Mike mentioned here , I was experiencing the same distance with the driver as my rescue clubs and without accuracy. Maybe taking a slightly different setup position will help and I am anxious to give it a try.
We absolutely agree in taking an approach that makes the game easier for you Richard! We also highly recommend a 'Play Club' - which is a more lofted and slightly shorter driver. This can have 13-15 degrees of loft, but also benefits from the large head size so that your margin for error is larger than a 3 or 5 wood. This might be worth looking into for you. We also hope that mike's advice helps you with your drives.
Hello? I am Jin Hye-seong, a golf master from Korea. The teacher's video has been watching and learning for a long time, and I am teaching a lot of senior students. I think that amateurs and seniors should do the teacher's swiping, and I am still teaching. Have a healthy and happy time. thank you.
I take your point, but I have two comments: first, did you have to set the driver head in the super anti-hook position to get the shaft to lean backwards? My TaylorMade R9 leans forwards slightly at the Neutral setting, and second, despite your instructions, at about 5:20, Sean still seems to me to line his shaft up with his front leg; perhaps that instinct to do so is very strong.
Great questions Daniel! This club (Callaway) is set in the neutral position, some manufacturers will vary, however, typically they should sit square with a slight shaft lean backwards. With regards to the video of Sean at 5ish mins in, there is a slight camera angle issue here. If you look closely, the ball appears to be played from the middle of his lead foot, it is actually inside his lead heel. Despite this, if you drop a plumb line down from his hands you will notice they are inline with the back of the club head. We apologise about this confusion caused. We try our best during production, but sometimes it's still not perfect, we'll blame the cameraman!
Gentlemen, great video as usual, out of action at the moment, after a hernia op, but hope to get out and practice this , as soon as I am fully fit. Many thanks David.
That's a good point well made. If you're hoping to get it right, may as well do so from the beginning. That said, we don't set up to accommodate the dynamic loft that occurs at impact to various degrees in the vast majority, if not 99.99%, of players.
We are pleased you enjoyed the video, we like to help golfers understand how the club works in the simplest way. Once, this information is understood, it is amazing how quickly the progress happens.
Thanks Martin how wonderful for you to discover something new after 50 yrs searching. Hope we can help you make more new discoveries as you learn about ES
Yes indeed it is a little less than the driver but the principle is the same let the club lie fleet on the ground and build your stance around it. Lots of golfers deloft a 3 wood and lose ball flight as a consequence. Good luck!

Thanks Mike 👍
One can never have enough of the Easiest Swing Videos.
So pleased you enjoy them
This is one jewel of a video Gentlemen! You both are very deliberate and concise in explaining the difference in setting up to the ball with an iron as opposed to a driver! Well Done to You Both!!!!
Thanks John glad you liked it!
Great driver tip, gents. Never thought about this. I'll have to try it with my driver when I'm out hitting balls. Cheers from America!
Thanks Ed, hope it helps!
Absolutely brilliant guys,yes i am definetely one of the 95%,but thanks to you i will take more care to set up properly in future with Driver. Really enjoying your channel.Michael Scotland.
Thank you Michael, we’re really pleased you found us and that you are enjoying our channel. Hope you find this setup really helps with your drives!
Great tip nice to see you back Mike looks like the the 7 th tee on the lodge
It’s at a lovely course in Northampton called Northants County. Well worth a visit if you’re in that part of the Midlands.

Well done Mike and we are really glad our videos are helping you get on the right path - keep up the good work.

Excellent.Thanks!
No problem. Hope you see some great results when you give it a go.
Great tip guys thank you
Glad you like it Billy good luck putting it into practice 👍
Thanks for your great content..can't wait to try this one.
Thank you Mary for the kind support and praise. Hope you find these tips really helpful for your success with the driver ⛳️🏆

Everything makes sense. Thank you for the info.
You're welcome Jaime. We hope you see great results when you take it to the golf course.
Gentlemen, great video as usual, out of action at the moment, after a hernia op, but hope to get out and practice this , as soon as I am fully fit. Many thanks David.
Thank you David. We hope you make a speedy recovery and get back out on the golf course again soon. Give this a go and let us know how you get on.
Wow!! What a video!!!! Excellent!!
Thank you so much 😀
Out of interest, would you have any idea what the distance would be on that particular type of swing? Thank you.
280 - 290 yards is fairly typical driving distance for Séan.
What a great & simple tip!
Glad it was helpful!
Been playing 3 years and this is certainly a 💡moment 💯. Thanks mates.
Our pleasure! Really pleased it set off a💡 moment for you. You'll likely find a few more by watching our other videos. Enjoy your golf🏌️
Am I correct to assume this would also be the same set up for woods, given the longer length and shape of the club head? Terrific video, by the way.
Hi Melanie, this set up would apply to all your woods. Well the ones which you’d like to hit well, anyway!
Enjoy your golf,
Mike
Really pleased you enjoyed the video and great question Melaine. Hope you've seen that Mike has answered you personally 😊
That's a good point well made. If you're hoping to get it right, may as well do so from the beginning. That said, we don't set up to accommodate the dynamic loft that occurs at impact to various degrees in the vast majority, if not 99.99%, of players.

Fantastic! First time I heard this after studying about the swing setup for well over a half century! Grateful 🙏 Stressdr
Thanks Martin how wonderful for you to discover something new after 50 yrs searching. Hope we can help you make more new discoveries as you learn about ES
Amazing video, thank you so much
Cheers, glad you liked it 🙏
Just curious….having the slight lean back with driver….will that make it look like the face is a little more open?
Great question Eric. It may appear to look different, however the club face should be square to the target. Hope that helps 😊
Since I tee off with a 3 wood, does the principle of the driver still hold?
Yes indeed it is a little less than the driver but the principle is the same let the club lie fleet on the ground and build your stance around it. Lots of golfers deloft a 3 wood and lose ball flight as a consequence. Good luck!
Mike. You always have an interesting different perspective.
Keep it up, you are missed.
I appreciate that John! Always happy to share my experience.
Man you got a Great Smooth swing thnks from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks so much Philip from Sydney Australia. Hope you take something away from the video and go out to discover your smooth swing 👍
