Find Your Perfect Swing
You donât choose your swing, your swing chooses you! Now,
with a simple and easy set of tests, you can discover your
most dynamic, consistent and efficient golf swing.
In this session you will learn:
1. How to best set up your body, arms and hands.
2. How your body, arms and hands track to the top of the
backswing.
3. How your body, arms and hands work best to slot the
club in the downswing and through impact.
4. Exercises and games to reinforce your natural
biomechanical golf swing.
5. Exercises to strengthen your dominant power
dimension.

âThose who know how
precise it can be, know how
precise it needs to be.â
~Homer Kelley
4. These Slides are designed to help you develop
your natural and most consistent set-up
Our ground up approach
⢠Posture
â Athletic Set-Up- fingertips to the top of the knees
⢠Height vs. Width- rotational vs. lateral swing styles
⢠Pivot Point Assessment- where you balance from
4
5. Stance Width
⢠Using a medicine ball and hold with youâre your
elbows and arms and rotate back. Take your
golf stance with the new power angles and
measure stance width.
⢠My stance width should be __â apart
5
6. Athletic Set-Up/Golf Posture
⢠Standing tall, tilt from the hips until your fingers
touch the top of your knees.
⢠Bow from the hips so your belt buckle feels like it
points at the ball, bend your knees until you can
touch the top of your kneecaps.
6
Too erect ball
goes right
Too deep, left
7. Height Vs. Width
Rotary vs. Lateral Swings
To determine if the overall motion of
your swing should be rotary or lateral.
This will effect your posture and
swing style. Lateral swingers will load
their lower body into their right side
and fire into their left. Rotational
swingers will rotate around either
their tailbone or left hip.
__height and __ width
7
___ +/- 4" of height
Narrower stance
Rotational (little weight shift)
____>4" of height
Wider stance
Lateral Swing (weight shift)
8. On top, note how the shaft and spine
angle form a 90 degree angle. Things
swing fastest around their axis. The spine
is the axis of rotation in the golf swing.
Below, note how line goes through the
top of Tigerâs neck, back of the elbow,
knee cap and arches of his foot.
Note each club is a different length and
requires a different set-up to achieve this
position. Longer clubs like the driver
more erect posture, wedges more bent
over.

Keys To Perfect Posture
9. Pivot Point Assessment
Directions â Standing tall with a six iron, assume your
athletic stance and pivot back to the top of your backswing
and note where does the top of your sternum pivot around.
Next take three consecutive swings with your feet together,
drop your right foot back and repeat, drop your left foot
back and repeat. Which position did you have the most
balance and speed?
⢠___ Left Thigh = Front post = feel of swinging around
a fixed center (sternum/chin) lead hip
⢠___ Center = Center post = feel of pivoting around
⢠___ Right thigh = Rear post = feel of swinging around
right hip
9
10. Addressing the Ball
⢠Front anchor leads with the lead foot.
⢠Center anchor starts with feet together.
⢠Rear anchor starts with rear foot.
Remember to stare at the target
and glance at the ball!
10
11. Examples of Each of the Posts
⢠Front Post Golfers include:
â Ben Hogan, Bobby Jones, Henrik Stenson, David Duvall,
Justin Leonard, Chip Beck, Tiger Woods currently (Stack and
Tilt Players and Sean Foleyâs players) (get picture of Hogan at
the top
⢠Center Anchor Coffers include: Study these
â Jordan Speith, Martin Kaymer, Rory McIlroy, Adam Scott,
Tom Watson, Greg Norman, Ernie Els, Sergio Garcia,
Annika Sorenstam, David Toms and Tiger Woods circa 2001
⢠Rear Anchor Golfers include:
â Jason Dufner, Bubba Watson Tom Kite, Stuart Appleby,
Nancy Lopez, Karrie Webb, Mike Wier (pic of Mike Weir)
11
12. Refining Your Post
Goal to set anchor/head over the appropriate point and then maintain a
stationary head until full extension or aim point is reached. Note front post
golfers need some spinal tilt, center need more and rear post golfers need a lot of
spinal tilt. ALWAYS keep your tailbone in front of your sternum at set-up.
12
Tail bone 2â ahead of
middle of the stance,
top of sternum and chin
in the middle. Some
Spinal tilt
Tailbone two inches
forward and top of sternum
two inches behind. More
spinal tilt.
Tailbone in the middle and
top of sternum four inches
behind. A lot of spinal tilt.

13. Foot Flare and Hip Rotation
Related to Power
Make an âXâ with your club and place your
feet so your heal and toe touch the club. Hold shaft
along thigh while you do the test.
Rotate your lower body back, keeping your nose over
the âXâ. If you shaft matches your club on the ground,
proceed to follow-through side. If the shaft is short of
the 90 degree angle, flare your foot open (itâs a 1:1
relationship meaning 20 degrees short, open your foot
20 degrees. If less than 45 degrees, drop your foot back
two inches, or the length of your big toe. Repeat on
follow-through side. Note, front and center post players
should not flare open their rear foot!
Trail Foot ____square, open
Lead Foot ____suare/open degrees
Corrective exercise:
Sitting down toe twist with legs extended and touch
your pinky toe to the ground and big toe to the ground.
13
Stance Width _10_â or a
Grip apart from your heels
_14_â apart from your toes
14. Axis of Symmetry
Related to Power
Axis of Symmetry is how your torso rotates
around your spine.
⢠___ Sternum Line Option = Front Anchor of
sufficient secondary tilt away from the target
⢠___ Center Line Option = Center Anchor or
little secondary tilt away from the target.
⢠___ Spine Line Option = Rear Anchor set and
rotate around the spine
14
15. Eye Position in relation to target line
Your eyes are the control center and guide motion in your body. They need to be positioned in a
way to compliment your backswing track and alignment preferences.
http://www.wikihow.com/Determine-Eye-Dominance
Eye dominance: __Left ___Omni ___Right
Currently are your eyes:
___ parallel to the target line (Side on alignment)
___ aligning right of the target line (Under alignment)
___ aligning left of the target line (On Top Alingment)
You need to be:
___ Parallel
___ aligned right _ degrees
___ aligned left __ degrees
Corrective Exercise-
Bite a business card/credit card and see how your eye are position relative to your target line.
This ties into your hips being open, if you keep your hips square, your eyes will be parallel to the
target line.
15
16. Refining Your Best Lead Hand Grip
Place the leading edge of a five iron on a wall or edge of a mat, take your grip and turn lower body through
to impact without pressing hands forward
â If face opens, your trail hand grip is too weak
â If your ball is curving right, turn you lead hand to the right.
â If your ball is curving left, turn your lead hand to the left.
â Remember to grip the club in your fingers so there is a line from the middle index finger knuckle to
the thumb. If there is a crook, your grip is too much in the palm. Best to take your grip from an eye
high position
â If square, repeat it.
The line between your index finger middle knuckle and your thumb should point
toward your
__ Left ear
__ In between your Right ear and shoulder
__ Inside right shoulder
__ Middle of right shoulder
__ Outside of the right shoulder
Remember there should be a line between your knuckle and thumb,
not a crook in your lead hand
16
17. Refinement For Lead Hand Grip
⢠With lead hand only, swing back until wrists hinge fully.
This is where you should see the wrists naturally hinge
___ Early or long thumb if hinges below your hip
___ Mid or medium thumb if hinges between your hip and sternum
___ Late or short thumb if wrists begin to hinge above the sternum
Long Thumb Medium Thumb Short Thumb
__ âkeep doing what youâre doing
17
18. Wrist Action
Related to Accuracy
Set your wrists in a vertical hinge position and have a friend apply downward
pressure. Set your angled hinge and repeat. Set a horizontal hinge and repeat.

⢠Step #4 Apply downward pressure to identify dominant dimension
26
27. #5b Best Delivery Slot Refinement
⢠With medicine ball that weights 2-4% of your body weight, take your athletic stance and
swing the ball back to the top of your backswing and hold for 2 seconds. Note how is your
trail forearm relative to the ball?
⢠Next place you hands in following positions, pivot back and raise your hands to shoulder high
and have someone provide downward force to see which one you leverage the best.
⢠Your trail hand pressure point should match how you best support the weighted ball. Your
trail hand index finger knuckle should be either on the side for side one downswing slot,
slightly under for side-under or under golfers and slightly on top for side-cover or on top
golfers.

41. Bradâs Favorite Drills
Drill: Swing club with dominant hand only 20-100
times a day. Feel the clubface square up and roll in
the downswing.
41
42. Fix my slice drills
⢠Impact bag/pillow
â Take a couple swings and make sure your hands beat
the club to the bag. If there was a race to the bag
between your hands and the clubhead, your hands
ALWAYS win the race to the ball if youâre trying to
hit the ball with aggression
â Take your normal grip and swing back and through
at 50% speed, swing through into the bag so your
toe finishes into the bag. This will help you feel how
to release and rotate your forearms through the ball.
42
43. Learn Your Best Ball Position
⢠Drill- Drag the club on the ground with your
lead hand and watch were the club shifts from
moving away from you to towards you. It will be
under your left shoulder. You need to match
your ball position with your pivot point. Refer
to the pivot point slide.
43
44. Perfecting Ball Position Off The Tee
44
Low point under
shoulder
Ball position behind low point
with irons and shots off the
ground.
Farther back the ball is
placed, the farther the ball will
go right assuming your
swinging on plane.
Ideally, the club moves down
and out to low point and then
up and in after low point.
45. Sweeping Progressions

â Lead with your right foot if youâre a rear pivot point
⢠Take 6-10 perfect backswings that match your track
⢠Take 6-10 perfect downswings that match your slot
⢠Take three full swings in good balance to find your
rhythm
47
48. Hinge Drill
Drill- Set your wrists, separate wrist action from
arm action and take a ½ swing back and through,
ž back and through and full back and through.
If you are struggling with the ball curving this drill
is for you! First make sure you have the right grip,
then work on this drill.

56. Course Strategy
⢠ALWAYS Swing in Balance
⢠It's not how far you hit it, it's how many times you hit it.
⢠When you're into the wind, make a fluid motion and make solid contact! When
your down wind, make a fluid motion and make
⢠solid contact!! fluid motion and make solid contact!! When there's no wind, make a
fluid motion and make solid contact!!!
⢠Remember to putt when you can, chip if you have to, pitch if you must and lob if
it's your only option.
⢠Choose a club you can comfortable get to your target. Note the pin is not always
your target, aim at the back middle of the green.
⢠Establish a routine before and after every shot, from putt to drive, focusing on
Grip, Aim, Alignments and Stance.
⢠Be positive and eliminate tension by breathing deeply. Hit shots with positive
thought and pictures in mind.
⢠Precision Pays! Just ask Tiger Woods, LeBron James, Sidney Crosby or any doctor
or engineer. Or go admire a Mercedes!
⢠Never leave a makeable putt short! The goal of the game is to get the ball in the
hole, give the ball a chance to go in!
