To find out more about the Single Plane Swing, I have created a "Single Plane Pocket coach" that you can take to the range, or course, and learn the fundamentals of the swing. Find out more about the Pocket Coach here: SwingPocketGuide.com
'Don't expect much out of putting' and then you snake one in. Brought a smile to everyone's face, guaranteed. That's why you're the pro. Thanks for all the instruction. Your coaches work so hard to help me get it right. Much appreciation for you and your team.
Thanks so much Todd & Tim for this channel. I've learned a lot over the past year and a half after deciding to completely change my approach to the golf swing by developing the Single Plane Swing. I just got back into golf about 3 years ago after playing very little over the previous 10 years while my 4 kids were being raised. I will have to say that switching to the single plane swing has made inconsistent rounds of golf much more consistent and fun! I used to score in the low to mid 90's, basically I would shout to play bogie golf and mix in a par once in a while for fun. Well after watching a lot of Graves Golf teaching videos, practicing, watching more videos, playing and watching more videos, I'm now consistently scoring 80 - 85, with had several rounds having a chance to shoot 78 - 79 going into last hole. My really good friends that I play golf with once or twice a year out in AZ, were in shock when we played about a month ago in Phoenix area. All of them said my swing looks great, consistent ball striking and it's the best golf they've ever seen me play. Now they're asking me for strokes. Anyways, just wanted say the Single Plane Swing is the best and thanks again for all you guys do to help average golfers play better and have fun on the course. Next goal is to consistently shoot in the 70's.
Started with “Natural Golf” years ago. Herniated 2 lumbar discs. When I eventually was able to swing a club again (at least a year), I was turned onto the single plane swing. Much easier on the lower back. Try it! The tilt at setup guides the entire swing.
When I received my clubs with the Grave Golf grips, I got in the habit of setting my hands to match the markings on the grip before taking my address. With experience and the constant reminders from Todd, I have now realized that it is still better to take the approach setup first and then the grip, using the markings as a guide.
16 degrees of sidebend. Between 40 and 50 degrees of forward bend - At Address / 50'50 weight at address. I use video to get it right - Match the Model. Don't guess.
I think your brother Tim would disagree with you and say the #1 MISTAKE in this video is most of us don’t have the correct club fitting for the Single Plane Swing…😂😂 Thanks for all you do Todd…Love the content!!!!
I def was a victim of mixing mechanics. Had the interlock grip and kept slicing everything. Switched to overlap recently and I believe that gives me a better ability to keep my right arm/elbow below my left through my swing. Great stuff once again!
One swing tip that helped me is to make sure the back swing with the tilt has the club come back and through at or below the shoulders. Is that correct? Flat, not at all steep?
I have played golf for40+ years. My former home course used to have a "greens keeper" that would paint the greens before tournaments and during droughts. It looked terrible. I have never seen painted early-spring fairways and fringe before, however!! Good grief!
Todd, I have watched a lot of your videos but am still a bit confused about the width of stance on shots and distance from ball on driver and irons. Are there any markers I can use to get these correct. I know I am still, unconsciously, bringing in habits from the conventional swing.
I created a product to learn the alignment, ball position and stance width - I practice with this every time I am on the range.

Overseeding the course in the winter causes problem in the spring. So it is better to paint the dormant grass so it does not compete with another grass when it starts growing again.
@@ToddGravesGolf Thanks for the reply Todd, I knew it was for a reason but I didn't know what. I live in the Southwest and I guess we are lucky we have grass lol.
I get that you're trying to increase the quality of the videos and do this whole Hollywood thing with the camera person moving and walking with the Todd. But for something like golf instruction videos this is not a good thing. It's hard to watch and frankly pretty annoying. Less is more in this case. Less camera movement please.
@@degroat1780 I don’t give tips if I can’t see your swing. I dont like to guess. You should join my coaching program. I will help you build a great swing. Email me a toddg@gravesgolf.com if you want me to get it exactly right for you.

Hope your right, 4 months now recovering from spine procedure and looking forward to learning the sps in about 3 or 4 more weeks.
Isn't the Natural Golf swing single plane? Its similar to this
Love the course instruction. Thank you.
You are welcome!
Love the painted fairways.
Turns shoes green.
And he drops the putt!!!!!... yes!!!...
I'm still swinging the single plane..
Can't wait til it warms up a bit here in Nova Scotia

perfect
Thank you for sharing.
No acknowledgment to the crowd after the birdie? 😂 Nice putt.
A few questions. How much tilt? How, exactly, do you get that part right? How would you describe your left foot, right foot weight distribution?
16 degrees of sidebend. Between 40 and 50 degrees of forward bend - At Address / 50'50 weight at address. I use video to get it right - Match the Model. Don't guess.
Great video... I like it.. Keep doing it..
Thank you, I will

That is the PreMistake. lol.
Best youtube golfer/ball striker.

Moe used a baseball grip.
@@gregorylatta8159 in his later years you are correct. On the tour he used interlock
@@Briangolfs really?
@@gregorylatta8159 yup. Todd goes over that in his book
@@Briangolfs Interesting.

sounds ok.

The course designers may place the tee box offline, but why doesn't the ground crew at least place the tee markers square to the fairway?
Because they align to the tee box.
i’m hitting the ground first regularity, help
Do you video your swing?
@@pgowan357 thank you i’ll try
@@pgowan357 my impact is good. My comment was “ do you video your swing”
@@pgowan357 I think you are responding to the wrong comment. My swing is good. The original comment was having trouble
@@NG-tz8wo sorry accidentally clicked on the wrong part of the thread
This looks like a course that paints the grass.
Overseeding the course in the winter causes problem in the spring. So it is better to paint the dormant grass so it does not compete with another grass when it starts growing again.
@@ToddGravesGolf Thanks for the reply Todd, I knew it was for a reason but I didn't know what. I live in the Southwest and I guess we are lucky we have grass lol.
Moe told me to tell you to tee it with you left hand hoo hoo

Work in progress. Just like a golf swing.
i am still regularly hitting ground before ball, very frustrating, help
@@degroat1780 how would you like me to help?
@@ToddGravesGolf can you give me some points to check in my setup,
