A narrative by “Little Moe” Todd Graves on the simplicity, effectiveness and similarity of Moe Norman’s Single Plane golf swing to tour players, including Tiger Woods. For those currently practicing Moe Norman’s swing, this is a great review of the basic concepts.
The Graves Golf Academy is the world’s foremost authority on the swing of Moe Norman, a man regarded by many as the world’s greatest ballstriker. Moe Norman told a reporter in an interview that Todd Graves, aka “Little Moe”, was the ONLY person who could teach his (Norman’s) swing. Moe’s quote, “(Todd) is only one who really knows it. Really knows it. Other guys just think they do.”
seven principles of golf DVD set is excellent. Good introduction video to the best golf swing out there.
Very good info, thanks!
Great!
In recent years I slipped from a 5 handicap to a 12 and began freezing at the top of my backswing, losing all my confidence. I was only able to temporarily ‘fix’ the problem by drastically shortening my backswing, losing huge distance and wrecking my timing..over the last 2 weeks I have taken on the single plane swing and it has completely transformed my game. I am sure that I will be in single figures again soon.Thanks for posting this video!
One of the best explanations of the single plane I have seen
great way to show Moe’s swing.
Why Moe Norman was so good?
He is the only golfer who never even tought about changing anything in is swing, he repeated the exact same motion each and everytime, his secret is not in his swing, it’s in how he praticed.
Great video, that will help the masses……one important note is that instead of an analysis of the greatest player the game has ever seen, and sorta implying he is doing something wrong, might not be the best of ideas,when trying to compare the differences between their swings. What i have realized from your analysis is that, you need to get the “masses” ie avg golfers to understand, what a pro does is not wrong, just more complex and it takes a lot of talent to replicate a dual plane swing.
And what your trying to teach is a simpler more repeatable way for the avg. golfer to strike a golf ball, therefore improving their results within the game of golf. Because one plane equals one motion and less room for error, and a reduction of hand eye coordination in the middle of an action of motion involving speed.
he was very good yes. he could hit balls off pop cans. one of the greatest of all time.
i almost gave up on golf until i found natural golf. perhaps the pros should keep on with the conventional swing, but i sincerely believe that 95% of golfers would play better with this swing. it´s more accurate, more fun and easier to reproduce. another convert!
If you understand golf swing mechanics based on body movement and club movement, this is the only way to swing a golf club. Tiger Woods swing is great no doubt, he is on plane. It is all about swing plane and the simple way to swing the club on plane. Moe was unique..agreed..but he figured out the golf swing. That is a fact.
