Here is something that will look nifty to some, and shows the proof of how the MCS Golf Swing model fits all clubs with the same stance (adjusted for width with different clubs but otherwise the same).
David or DK as I like to call him emailed me on the weekend regarding something he had found in a golf swing book from the 60’s (the Classic Golf Swing era, so you know it’s likely bang-on) called the “Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf.”
We had a discussion on it today before he headed off for his match-play round (I forget what the exact event is, but he’ll enlighten us, I’m sure, when he reads this posting).
Thanks to WAX Nation and everyone who has already reserved your Advance copy of the upcoming “Project 2018” video!
Here’s just a tidbit of some of the real yummy things we’re going to be exploring in “Project 2018,” which is still as yet un-named.
I found the video from Mike Dunaway in which he talks about an Impact/Release concept (if you still like and need concepts, they work ’til you don’t need’em!), and it’s very similar to the “Swinging Into A Wall” post from earlier in the month.
So, Uncle JJ mentioned it in the comments, but I couldn’t find it at the time, even though I agreed with him on the similarity.
The problem you get with the way a lot of people are swinging on television, aside from the fact that the result is very unsightly, is that they’re swinging at the ball (especially with the Driver) as if they’re hitting a wall with a hammer but forgetting it’s not actually there.
I happened to come across an Instagram sequence of Lexi Thompson’s driver swing this morning while getting ready to resume the work on the “MCS Golf Swing” eBook which I think will be completed sometime this week (update emails have gone out), and she only has 2 swing issues that I can see.
I mentioned in my previous posting how I used to be a very high-trailing-heel impact swinger.
Now, I am a proponent of the low-heel impact, and if you can swing so that it is flat at impact, then you’re really onto something, but that’s also only if you do it properly.
Don’t panic, now – there’s nothing new in the MCS model from the “E = MCS” video, as I said there was no further simplification of this model possible afterward.
What I have found is the “key” in the setup that I built for the MCS Golf Swing, ending the long journey from the first crucial piece back in 2014 when I hit upon the right-biased and spine tilt being necessary to the optimal swing model.
I got an excellent couple of links from DKondo yesterday when we spoke on Skype for about an hour on the swing, to some Youtube videos.
They show Trackman in the process of proving the MCS Golf Swing theory, and what we’ve been talking about for years here – that the proper impact spine angle is rightward tilting rather than the left-biased or vertical spine junk that began with the Modern Golf Swing madness.

This is a little clip from the four hours of video that I shot last summer and fall with David D.
Of course, everything couldn’t make it into the final cut of the “MCS – Dropping The Hammer” video, but here’s a little out-take that will be familiar to the old hands.
