The Science Behind the Swing: Part 2

Along the way, there have been several questions on the blog wondering why all the professionals on the Tour, except DJ, use a rotational swing and go to parallel or more at the top of the backswing if the Surge Swing is better. These are all good questions and are worthy of a good answer.

Since we'€™re getting new visitors to the site every day, I think it'€™s time to review some of the fundamentals of the Surge Swing. Everything I teach is based on the laws of physics and physiology, the laws of the universe. If you break those laws in your swing, you have a greater opportunity for error.

The club is a tool and the body is a tool. If you use them correctly, that is, within the laws of physics and physiology, you'€™ll play better golf and be less prone to injury. That'€™s the whole premise of the Surge Swing.

I go into some detail about the scientific reasoning behind the swing. It'€™s not just my words, but the word of experts in their field. I think this video will help everyone understand how the vertical, limited turn, ¾ backswing came into being and why.

The Surge!
