I am finally able to sit at the computer without major discomfort, and when I sat down to continue the editing work yesterday, I made a decision that I’ve been turning over in my mind for a while.
I have already contacted the WAX Nation members who took advantage of the advance purchase option and have advised them of the following: Continue reading
While attempting to finish this video in a timely manner (I thought at the beginning of August that it would be completed in the next two to three weeks), I am more concerned with getting it exactly the way I think it needs to be for simplicity’s sake.
The problem I have run into is that, although the pivot drills are pretty basic (at least, I hope so), the explanations are more complicated than one would think.
You may have noticed that I haven’t been posting much in the past week – it is not only the video work, but end of summer stuff (three kids in high school and college) has taken up a good deal of time.
That said, I’m in the final edits stage and getting in as much work as I can with the hectic back to school activities and spending time with family before everyone scatters in September.
I received an email a while back from someone interested in the MCS Golf Swing, and the question they asked me was, did I have a “system” available that they could sign up for to learn it.
My first thought was, “why on earth would I have a ‘system’ for learning the golf swing?”
I mean, I’ve had private member sections in the past, where people could join, but it wasn’t to actually learn the MCS Golf Swing – everything one needs to learn it is in any one of my videos.
You read that correctly – IF people listen and pay attention to how the progressive pivot drills work and how they illustrate exactly how the body is built to move with regards to a golf swing, they can prove that the optimal Classic Golf Swing motion is the way to swing.
They would also destroy the Modern Golf Swing nonsense forever – until the next time people decide to reinvent the wheel and proceed to forget how the body is built to move.
The most complicated part of a simple golf swing motion would likely be the transition into the down swing, and I would hazard this guess because of our inclination to “hit” from the top of the back pivot.
One of the things that really excited me about the pivot drills I’ve implemented for the upcoming video “MCS – The Power Of The Pivot” was that I believe I’ve found a simple explanation and demonstration of this transition.
I said a while back that I had completed my swing research (which is only as long as something doesn’t come up which I want to investigate, but I’ve checked virtually everything that can be, in my estimation), so the fun I’ve been having lately has to do with the pivot drills for the upcoming video “MCs – The Power Of The Pivot.”
There are some revelations that have served to simplify the swing even to myself, which was a pleasant surprise since I thought the MCS pivot action was a simple as it could get. Continue reading
A great deal of the time I spend thinking about the golf swing hasn’t got anything to do with the mechanics – I isolated the mechanics a good while back – it has to do with how to convey the golf swing concepts involved in swinging with mechanical correctness.
I have spent a lot of time doing pivot drills in the past, along with actual swinging, and the reason I believe I’ve come up with something that will illuminate everyone’s minds with the simplicity of a proper pivot is because I don’t practice the pivot anymore.
I’ve been working on the progressive pivot exercises that are designed to teach the mechanically-correct pivot action, but I’ve been fiddling with them for the past weeks to try to get all of the concepts I feel are crucial for an optimal golf swing.
I have actually laughed out loud at times while doing them, because I keep thinking about Tai-Chi when I start doing the down swing pivot exercises.
It may just be a natural progression or evolution of concepts, but I’ve spent a great deal of time over the years talking about the setup with the “Leaning A” stance and the proper ball position.
I have even said that the setup is most of the golf swing – get that right and you’re 90% of the way there, correct?
