Great swing Lee, but it killed your back. That chase move down the line, coupled with the big lower body slide is just brutal on you lumbar area. Imitate at your own risk.

Is the new book based on The 4 Magic Moves the same or any good – Same title
June 6th, 2010 - 10:53
Dont’ forget the bending of his knees,thats what dropped the club to the slot.
June 6th, 2010 - 11:09
what do you shoot because you have a very good swing
June 6th, 2010 - 11:51
Its not a bad swing, but it’s Trevino’s “Straight Edge Swing”.
It’s doesn’t look like the same technique that he uses – he sets up WAY open for every shot – the 1st and last golf swings are from a virtually square address. Get Trevino’s book!
Great Video, though!

it’s going to be fun watching golf again when they get rid of these square grooves.

The King!! What this guy does, the angeled hinge and an actual squared clubface on top (what you normally would called a shut face), and big focus on a lateral movement on the downswing is the salvation for almost every golfer. Trevino’s swing gives you compression, direction and (by sweet spot accuracy) distance…. You can read up more on this type of sving in a book by Joe Dante called “Four magic moves to winning golf” (1962). Give it a read! Same ideas as Trevino express here.

Can you please explain What’s wrong with that swing?
June 6th, 2010 - 14:04
the guy who swings at the begining of thi video is so fu kin g bad

I don’t need a trackman to know that his club travels on an inside to out swing path and the face is square to slightly open at impact. “The ball starts where the clubface is pointing” is a product of the path. Keep watching more swing videos instead of old Office episodes and you’ll get it.
June 6th, 2010 - 14:57
Actually the old pga ball flight rules are wrong. Get on a trackman or something. The ball starts where the clubface is pointing and curves away from the path.
June 6th, 2010 - 15:43
For those arguing about Lee’s motion – remember the ball flight laws. If his ball starts right and spins slightly to the right, his path was inside out with the clubface slightly OPEN.

All swings are left after impact in order to swing around the body. His swing is a block not a release. I would suggest reading his book, Groove Your Golf Swing My Way, to understand his method in detail.
June 6th, 2010 - 17:02
Actually he does not swing down the line, he swings very much left quickly after impact
June 6th, 2010 - 17:40
Flat left wrist/Right wrist bend at Impact – Don’t let the clubhead pass your hands before and through Impact = hit Down, specially with Irons/Wedges.

Jango1000, thanks for the video
Could you please help me understand what Lee was trying to demonstrate at the 2:20 mark?
Was he showing how he got to impact for all his swings?
cheers

Interesting to read his book…I always thought he aimed left and just cut across the ball, but he aimed left with a closed face and intentionally blocks it out right. He teaches the importance of keeping the club traveling at ball level and down the line as long as possible – ingenious method.

I loved watching Trevino in his prime…so fun to see him when he was challenging the Golden Bear.
June 6th, 2010 - 19:50
i love how he talks about SLIDING THE HIPS towards the target on the downswing to keep the swing path on the inside!

No matter what any golf guru might claim, there will ALWAYS be more than one way to hit a golf ball effectively.
June 6th, 2010 - 21:28
oh stop it…really so sad and corny

The great thing about Trevino is that he understood his golf swing. He was self-taught, but he did not just play by feel. He learned and understood the exact reason for everything he was doing. Maybe that is why he won 6 major championships

Great Stuff seeing this Great Man swing it in his “Prime” Simply put, No one “Worked It” better!! Trevino is my all time Favorite!!
