There are many swing faults and many pros goes
around touting different swing philosophy like slow
swing, box swing, etc… These are all clever marketing
terms because golfers want to buy something to fix
their game. Even just buying a concept and may be a
book. Then there is another pocket of pros that
teaches drills and drills with bands attached to your
arms, hips, chest, ankles and even your head. Let’s

face the hard truth and the sooner that you realize the
earlier you game will get better. One it takes 1,000
hours if practice to groove a golf swing and make it
second nature. That’s a lot of balls to hit. Second, if
you still yourself with bands and whatnot then when
you take it away during a real golf game what
happens? You will forget how to swing and the
sensory inputs will be different without those
attachments.
There are many swing flaws and everyone has a
unique mix. That’s golf and that’s more importantly
being yourself. However, given the nature of physics
there is one mother of all golf swing flaw that no one
seems to have a gadget for. And that is moving the
head and loosing the posture. If you focus in keep
your head still then you will probably solve many of
the swing flaws such as early extension of the hips of
knee flex, sway to the left or right, and so on. Keeping
your head still is very important but the sad truth is
that the only way to know if your head has moved is
to ask someone to help check your head position
while your practice your golf swing. You remember
seeing those videos where Butch Harmon holds a golf
club behind ones head and ask you to swing. That
way you have good feedback if your head has moved

or not. For all of us weekend warriors if you want to
really improve on keeping your head still then you
either hire a golf coach for many hours of practice or
just convince yourself that it is not your probably as
you can sense it yourself. Then you go to fix other golf
swing flaws. Well, I have done that for a very long time
but my golf did not improve much. However, an old
guy and very seasoned golfer gave me on a very
simple piece of advice “don’t move your head and just
turn your hips”. But he did talk three hours about the
benefit of heavy shaft and not too heavy head and so
on. Long story short, it helped by leaps and bounds.
He watched my head as he was retired and had
nothing much to do. I think he wants to share his
knowledge too and I am in deep gratitude to him.
When Apple showed a
iPhone 5 with face
recognition being
hardware accelerated,
I immediately took to
XCode and started
mastering the APIs to
build my golf head
position app. Now my
finished product is

GolfXion which sounds like “golf action” and it is
completely free. It does not carry advertisements. Just
as the old guy shared his knowledge with me, I am
sharing this golden nugget of information. I hope your
golf swing can improve just like mine did. I used to be
a very high handicapper but now I am very close to
being single digit.
Another reason that I am wiring this is it makes me
angry to see those bull**** advices such as 5 ways to
fix your drive, 3 ways to cure your putting woes, 7
ways to get out of the rough, etc. There is only one
thing to work on when you want to improve your
swing, keep your head still (posture is implied by head
position).
One feedback from many people that I show GolfXion
to is “but I need to buy a stand”. Golfers will literally
do anything to improve their swing. A stand only cost
less than a wedge from your favorite golf company.
It’s easy to setup and bring around. My web site has
links to stands that you can order from Amazon. Click
here to go to those articles. If you need more battery
just get one of those battery packs. My personal
favorite is PowerGorilla as it can even change my Mac
Air too It’s impressive, if you don’t mind me saying.

I think I have said enough, please get yourself a stand
which probably cost less than a wedge and focus on
the fundamentals of golf. I am also a big fan of Ben
Hogan’s book the Five Fundamentals and I highly
recommend that you read this great book.
