Minimalist Single Plane Golf Swing Video – How to setup and swing.

1. Hi Kirk,
   I’ve been experimenting moving from minimalist to Moe Norman style but
   failing. The minimalist style seems a lot easier although I may be
   overdoing the trailing upper arm connection with the body (ie. elbow stuck
   in the side during the swing trying to get the correct plane). How did Moe
   know whether he was swinging on the correct plane and not too flat or
   upright (was it just trial and error)? The biomechanics of my body seem to
   favour a more upright backswing (ie. more upright than my shoulder plane),
   and trying to make it flatter (digging that trailing elbow into the body to
   keep connected) is making the swing less fluent and more manipulated with
   resultant errant shots. Is there a vertical drop in the minimalist swing or
   does that only apply to Moe’s swing? Also, am I correct in assuming that
   Moe seems to have very rigid (almost locked legs at address)? If yes was
   there any reasoning for doing that??

2. Hi Kirk- I just started trying to learn your minimalist swing and love it
   so far. Thank you so much for sharing your golf knowledge. I have 2 quick
   questions- 1- Since switching to your swing, I seem to be struggling with
   hitting the ball off the toe. Do you have any basic suggestions/ideas of
   what I may be doing wrong? 2- When pre-setting your hips forward, how do
   you differentiate between pushing them too far forward and not pushing them
   forward enough? Is there a particular feeling I can look for? Thanks so
   much! ?

3. I can appreciate you saying that you invented this swing.. sorry sir but
   what your doing is the Moe Norman swing with a little variation and also
   the stack and tilt… I would say that its an in between of the two but you
   did not invent either… thanks for your time.?

4. Most hit the ball farther as their path improves and with the single plane
   setup they also return the clubface square more often. Check out my other
   videos and you can see me hitting some more shots.

5. Distance is as far as with the conventional swing. I can alternate between
   single plane and conventional and on average single plane is actually
   father, but on perfect shots about the same. I just hit more perfect shots
   with single plane that is why the average would be higher. From my
   experience people gain distance with it.

6. What kind of distance do you get with this swing.
