Why 2/6?

For years the golf swing has been allusive to recreational golfers despite all the advances in golf club equipment, golf balls and the ability to stream golf instruction videos right to mobile devices. In fact, studies show that over 90% of todays golfers still cannot break a 100 counting every shot!

Why has this happened? Because since the beginning of golf instruction time golfers have always been taught “what to do” NOT “why and how” to do it. I know this may seem trivial and maybe not so important, but the golf swing is a 2 second motion that has multiple moving body parts and multiple moving club parts and this makes a big difference when trying to have a positive and consistent outcome. So what we are left with is 1,000’s of videos on YouTube that are substandard in really telling us “the how/why” in the golf swing!

Why are you viewing and listening to me? 

Because I was just like you!  I have been golfing for almost 20 years and for the first 16 of those years I was on and off YouTube trying to find a swing, trying to find that one tip, trick secret, fix or gimmick that would finally break my game wide open.  Again I was just like you!  I would watch a video then rush off to the driving range just knowing I had found the secrete and/or the magic move to golf!  However, just like you, I left the range disappointed and more confused than when I got there. This went on for 15 years or so until one day, out of the blue, I questioned the angle of my club face.  I mean a golfer can only hit so many slices right?  So I decided to just close my club face a bit, or what I thought was closed, just to break the insanity cycle of bad shots.  And what followed was not the perfect shot, but a different sound at impact.  A sound that I had not really heard and it was then I realized I was on to something; but really didn’t know what.

Then the following week I was watching  tour pro swings in slow motion on my DVR and observed that they were not loading on their right side like I had been taught!  In fact, the rotation of the right hip was not much at all because they were staying more centeted and NOT loading!  From there I realized how important staying centeted was in helping with club head speed, consistency and distance!  Oh…that slightly closed club face I had in the beginning,  I squared it up when I developed the Spine Centered Posture at setup.  

The rest is 2/6 history.

 One day looking in the mirror 

After a few days of trying to get my swing more consistent with this new found method I was looking in the mirror trying to get my hip action right.  Because remember we’ve always taught that we have to fire the lower body to start the downswing!  So, as I was practicing my downswing I just happened to leave my head back to see if I was leading with my hips properly something automatic happend!  My hips cleared without me focusing on doing it.  (pic above) From there I reasoned,  “If I kept my head back just a bit and drop my arms could I eliminate the swing thought of trying to lead my downswing with my lower body?”  The answer was YES!  From that day on I realized the golf swing was more of a method and not a swing with a bunch of  swing thoughts.  I started not to listen to traditional golf instruction anymore and even turned the volume down on my TV and slow motioned the tour pros swing positions using my DVR.  

From there the concept of 2 simple swing thoughts started to lead to ALL 6 club and ALL 6 body positions MORE EASILY!

Simple Swing Thoughts (SST) & 2/6 Player  

By definition:  Simple swing thoughts (SST) is the ability to use the correct grip and posture, as explained by using leverage and center, to put your swing into ALL 6 body and ALL 6 club positions AUTOMATICALLY!  this will make you a better ball striker.

By definition:  2/6 Player is the ability to take the SST concepts and apply them to ALL aspects of your golf game, putting, short game, long game, bunkers, hybrids, difficult lies and more… to make you a PLAYER!

Now let me say this.  There are no tips , tricks, secrets, fixes or gimmicks to the golf swing. All golf instructors know that having a sound grip and good posture is very important in hitting good consistent shots.

However, if I said that the correct LEVERAGED grip and correct SPINE CENTERED posture at set up would empower you to take control of your golf swing while eliminating ALL the confusing swing thoughts would I have your attention?  You bet I would!

It has been these major parts of the golf swing that I have been working on diligently over the past 4 years to teach and to present in a way that golfers, just like you, can understand and duplicate not only on the range, but also on the course.  The Simple Swing Thoughts (SST) and 2/6 Player process has grown over the years with golfers who are dedicated to getting better and improving their golf games.  And as long as substandard golf instruction exists, SST and 2/6 will continue to strive and to bring the most effective golf instruction/coaching to the golfing community in anyway possible.
