Dear Julian, your training videos have been a big help to my game. Your "dance of golf" improved my back strain so that my back no longer hurts after a round of golf. Your lessons on driving, fairway woods and irons were excellent. Yesterday morning I watched your saw grip putting video during my cardio workout and then tried it on the course a few hours later. Big improvement in my putting! I am now consistently breaking 100 with your techniques. Thanks very much. Michael
Going through the warm-up with the principals is very helpful. Like the new website. In the golf lesson section, 1st paragraph typo “nr” should be “or”. Really enjoy your presentations. Great aid in the enjoyment of golf!
Thanks, Julian. I keep trying to swing hard, and when it doesn’t work, I come back to you and the easy swing. If I could commit to it, I am sure golf would be more enjoyable. Too bad my rhythm, coordination and balance are all poor.
Tried to copy at the driving range as it is winter in Vancouver Canada. You swing so easy was expecting the ball to not go far. Well what a surprise they were going further. Have watched lots of your videos more than once Come spring I plan to look like the best coach in the world. Think his name is Julian. God Bless you for all your help. Jim
Thanks Julian...I hadn’t realized you had other tube vids. Found the one on the draw. Excellent..... Have to tell you how critically important the finish is as you teach it.....it has changed so many problems with my swing....much appreciated
Would you do all these exercises during a practice session and what about in between shots,i know it,s no good hitting ball after ball as many people do on the range,advice please.S/J
Thanks Julian, still practicing the movement daily and it's made a big improvement when I manage to get out on the course. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Hi Julian. I have been unable to make the finish as you have demonstrated throughout my entire golf life. I have always argued or tried to explain to myself that it is because I pitched ball in college or that it was genetic as my father had a sim8liar finish. But after watching your videos I believe one of the main causes is that I have always prided myself in “keeping my head down” which after watching your ideas have come to believe that is the cause. This is also evident when I come through the ball......I am off balanced. You demonstrated that perfectly. Every off season I always plan to work on my finishing my swing , once and for all. But never can. Thanks to your videos I think I now understand why. Much appreciated.
It’s never to late to change Peter, have fun making the change and hold your finish until the ball lands, too many benefits to list but trust me on this one. Your best golf is ahead of you once you get this right 😀
Hi Julian as I age I find my balance deteriorating so having a balanced golf swing is looking more unlikely as time passes! Swinging on one foot to the other is very challenging as I am in my 70th year. Stay safe everyone as we have just come out of our second Covid 19 wave here in Melbourne after 3 month lock down in March and 2nd 4 month lock down from late July!
Hi Neil, it’s certainly been a tough year for the whole world and one that a lot of us wish to forget. With regards to your balance I have to disagree that it won’t get better, if you practise balance exercises and build up the tight muscles you can get better at it, I work on balance a lot and there for it gets easier to do, the easy option is to do nothing but the best option is to do something. You can do this Neil 😊
Hi Julian how do I keep from using my right hip to much in the swing thanks keep the videos coming thanks for video in dediçation to Brian sparks good job julian
Thanks Julian. Would you recommend adopting a brief “stiff” posture just before relaxing and playing the shot as a means of knowing (feed back/feel) your body is relaxed?
I have a saying that is “awareness cures, trying fails” creating awareness of tension is so powerful and letting it go will become a game changer, Niguel
Thanks for reminding me,i had completeiy forgotten about swinging 2 clubs,i shall do it in my practice routine,tell me who came up with swinging leg exercise,i had never heard of it before.S/J.
swinging leg exercise: Hi Juilian - after turning 63 and now 68, my swing has gone to pot. Used to have a good modern swing but can't do it anymore. The easy swing is the way to go. Thank you Brian Sparks. RIP. Anyway, I'd like if you could explain why you can swing your leg with the head down on the backswing but not on the downswing/follow through. If you are symentrically around the sternum then backswing and "forward" swing should be semetrical. Unless you take things farther on the forward swing to an over the shoulder finish. Please explain. Cheers Daryl If I ever become rich, I would love to come and take a few lessons with you .
Have you done a video on posture and set up? It seems you have a very relaxed taller posture rather than the very bent over postures that others teach.
I'm a senior golfer in my 70's right now and trying to coordinate all your drills. Is it OK to use light foam balls in the house or will that take away from feeling a real golf ball in your swing? It's cold here in New Jersey right now (18 Deg F) so the range is out of the question. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Hi Joe, hitting soft balls is fine by me, it’s much better than not doing anything that’s for sure, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all too 👍
I just watched a golf “tip” saying that if you can reach out and touch your club on the backswing, you are not “wide” enough or “lifting” the club. Guaranteed tension and sore muscles. Thanks, but I will stick with the easiest swing!
Hi Julian, love easiest but YOU DONT HIT BALL IN YOUR GREAT BACKSWING.Can you direct me to your links for downswing without frenzied over the top move. After 20 years, I have finally figured out your powerful fully loaded easy backswing but come over the top on downswing and thus the reason I dont stick with you guys ads a 4 handicap..thanks
Hi, thanks for your kind message, I have a lot of content at Propergolfing.com on this subject but here is a video I made about the downswing that will help you ruclips.net/video/pJXIo9-nrQ8/видео.htmlsi=GJAulkKLONu9wcER
Thanks Julian, your swing technique helped me greatly last season. I recently developed a bum left knee do you have any swing advice or just stay with the principles of the easy golf swing, once I am able. Thank you and Happy New Year.
Julian this swing works great with my irons, but doing the same swing with a driver just slices for me. Why is my ball path different if it’s the same swing?
Hi Julian. This may be a bit unusual and perhaps to individualized to answer but here goes......what should I carry in my bag.......currently I have 5-SW......this season I want to replace my woods but am curious about hybrids etc......I have been using a 3 & 5. I have a 4 iron but question it might be time to go to a hybrid. What do you recommend .... Thanks so much.......
Hi Peter, I would go for a modern 12.5° driver, 5 wood and 7 wood, 4-5 hybrid and 6-sw in irons , the modern drivers are much easier to use, big head, big. Sweet spot and very playable . Hope this helps
Great review of all the principles and deadly don’ts to get us through the winter months here back in the states. Good for you starting to administer the Pfizer vaccine - hopeful we will get on the other side of this pandemic so I can come back and spend another day with you. Merry Christmas to you and Jo! Jeff Tillery
Hi Julian. Excellent videos......would a 21 degree hybrid replace my 4 iron and if so what degree loft would you recommend to replace my 5 iron. Thanks so much. Peter
Great sound quality. Thanks. Thanks to your vids I am enjoying improved golf swing. Lots of work ahead but improving. Especially with irons up to 6. Hybrids and driver not as well. I think that club length is pushing me away from ball and a more around the body , old swing. I am trying for a more vertical relaxed swing. Should I choke down on club to maintain address that works well with iron? My driver is the big problem. I find myself reaching out for ball and swinging around body as the round progresses , reverting to old wing. Driver is 45.5”. I have started choking down +/- 1.5” with mixed results but improving. Your thoughts? Merry , merry Xmas , and thanks for all your help.
Hi Chuck, sounds like it’s an address issue rather than a swing plane issue. Stand tall with your arms relaxed on your chest, from there bend forward from your hip joint until the club hits the ground ( don’t move your arms off your chest ) once the club is on the ground then slightly soften your knees but don’t bend them. Where the club is is where the ball should be. Simple ( arms, hips and knees in that order ) should make a big difference. 😀
Best golf swing instruction ever. Simple , effective and able to execute. shot the best round in a long time!!
Sounds like you had a great game Kathy 👍
I just saved this video and started practicing the movements today. Thanks from Texas USA

Thanks, I’ll sort it just now 🙏
Thanks, Julian.
I keep trying to swing hard, and when it doesn’t work, I come back to you and the easy swing.
If I could commit to it, I am sure golf would be more enjoyable.
Too bad my rhythm, coordination and balance are all poor.
All things that are easily fixable, a bit of self discipline and some help from a ES coach and I’m sure your best golf is ahead of you 👍
Great tip showing me why I was falling back on the through swing of the leg drill.
Glad it’s helped, Scott
Thanks Julian just off to the course for nine hole so this video is very timely. Hopefully I can repeat your principles.
You can do it Dave, remember to have fun whilst playing 😀
Thanks Julian. My swing has suffered through lockdown. I used your tips this morning and “normal service” has returned !
Regards, Tim
That’s awesome Tim

Keeping your head down stops a full transfer of weight post impact, try it and see what happens. Well worth checking out www.propergolfing.com btw
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Julian. I find your videos very helpful! Thank-You
My pleasure Pat, take good care
Very helpful!! Thanks
Glad it’s helped 👍😀
Merry Christmass and happy new year to you, Juian. Thanks for your videos. Felices pascuas y prospero año nuevo.

Your welcome Bob
Just GREAT. Many thanks

Have you done a video on posture and set up? It seems you have a very relaxed taller posture rather than the very bent over postures that others teach.
Not sure I have, yes being taller takes pressure off your body and allows you to turns easier.

Hi Julian is the transfer of weightr a quick move from right leg to left leg thanks Jim keep videos coming
I would suggest not to rush it as it can affect your rhythm. Why not try various speeds and see which gives you the best results.
I just watched a golf “tip” saying that if you can reach out and touch your club on the backswing, you are not “wide” enough or “lifting” the club. Guaranteed tension and sore muscles. Thanks, but I will stick with the easiest swing!
Wow, that sounds painful
I agree, the orange whip is great. It really slows you down, and gets the legs and hips moving.

Allow your ankle to move with freedom so that you don’t put additional tension on your knee
@@JulianMellor Thank you for the quick response. Your videos are extremely helpful. Best regards.
well done!
Thank you John
Hi Julian......hope this finds you well.....my question regarding practice is “how do I practice hitting my draw? Thanks. Peter
I’m sure I’ve made a video on this Peter , worth having a search for it 👍
Julian this swing works great with my irons, but doing the same swing with a driver just slices for me. Why is my ball path different if it’s the same swing?
Sounds like you are just leaving the clubface open at impact

Hi James, in what way do you feel you are moving your hip too much? Are you turning enough in your backswing?
I think you just answered my question I have not been turning enough
Very helpful thank you!

Julian, I have found that using the Orange Whip is great for practising the Easiest Swing. Have you ever used it?
Yes, it’s really good
I'm just surprised that you didn't do an exercise with the swing caddy
Not everyone has one so I thought it unfair to add it that’s why I used 2 clubs
Do you graphite shafts or steel
I’ve used graphite for about 7 years now, Stephen
Ok I just got the ping g430 bin fitted for them looking forward to when they arrive
Really nice clubs, good choice
How much are your 2-day golf courses Julian
They are £399 Chris but don’t include accommodation
Thanks very much for getting back to me Julia I think on RUclips You're easy swing is the best on all channels
That’s very kind of you to say so Chris, the most important thing is it works when you understand the methodology 👍
