  Thanks David Leadbetter! This instantly fixed my swing. Its very difficult to come over the top with this back swing position. it&apos;s very easy to get the club shallow on the downswing from this backswing too.Thanks again! This is golf gold👍👍

  I saw this young guy hit a short backswing shot, with the club upright in the backswing. He barely turned and the connection /sound was unreal. I couldn&apos;t figure out how he did it, until I watched some of Leadbetter&apos;s A Swing method. &nbsp;I tried this method and its amazing. All starts with the grip and pivot. The rest is easy once you get used to syncing it up.

  I perceive this slap release is what David Duval, Mike Austin, Mike Malaska, Mike Dunaway, Steve Pratt, Dan Shauger used.

  I got the book yesterday after seeing some of these videos figuring I didn&apos;t have much to loose. I have been struggling with fat and thin shots and a bad pull for a while now. It&apos;s been very fustrating. I gave only been playing about a year and a half and in that time I have only broke 100 once. &nbsp;Lately my score has been getting worse instead of better.<br><br>So got the book and read through a little over half in that first day and breezed through the rest. Practiced it a bit that day and that was it. Today I went out and shot a 99 which is my second best score ever. So with just minimal time with the book and very little practice I saw results. The real test will be if I can keep the score down and improve.

  Played today with this grip as an experiment. First hole, drive was dead straight 270. 225 left. Hit a 5 wood and pulled it a little. Found myself having to chip over 20 ft tall trees and a trap. Put in the trap. Got up and down. Made the next 4 greens in regulation with some excellent iron shots that went high AND straight.<br>Drove the ball straight all day and had some pretty surprising iron shots, both distance and accuracy wise. 180 yard &nbsp;8 iron? Hit my 4 hybrid 200 yards, and played a 505 yard hole with driver and 5w! Was just off the green, pin high in 2.<br>Will be taking this grip to the range to see if it was a fluke or about to become the foundation of my new swing!

  This reminds me of every Karate seminar I’ve ever been to…Milking the basics. There are no ‘special’ techniques, it’s simply a matter of getting the basics down and practice, practice, practice. Key is to enjoy your golf and not chase the score.

  This swing absolutely works! I suffered from over rotating my forearm during backswing and inconsistent striking, no confidence on short game previously. &nbsp;With this A swing, i hit it more consistently and improved distance by 10% for all clubs. &nbsp; It is amazing to see my short game improved significantly as well. &nbsp;Thanks David! &nbsp;I have bought the book.

  I actually didnt realize this video was so old. He basically just described Matt Wolfs swing and Jim Furyk.. more or less.. Shawn Clements swings like this as well.. VERY steep back swing...

  Tried this today playing golf shot one of my better rounds this year.I like the ideal of keeping the club outside the hands in the backswing.It help me to tighten my swing up and hit it flush.I hit a lot of good iron shots with a little draw.I think this swing will be eazy to repeat and less thinking.Im around a 4 handicap and going give this a chance.Cant wait to play again.
