Re: Swing planes

The people on this site that have taken 3Skills on board all seem to have been playing already so it is difficult to see how a complete novice would fair starting out with 3Skills.

I purchased the book last year as a fairly experienced golfer with a low handicap. The parts on ball striking and focusing on the way the club acts through the impact zone was quite enlightening and allowed me to create a new simpler focus on what was important and what was not.

I think someone who is a true follower of the system would not need to consider swing planes or whether they preferred a one or two plane swing, the system requires you to focus on how the club approaches and leaves the ball with different clubs, nothing else. The precept is that if these things are executed correctly then the rest will happen naturally.

I must concede that although 3Skills has improved my ball striking and cleared much of the clutter from my swing thoughts, I am not a fully paid up member. I have the experiences of many lessons, studies of swing gurus, playing experience and practice ingrained in my game I find it impossible for me to totaly throw off all that has gone before.

If you wish to use 3Skills properly then I would advise that you ignore swing plane considerations and just do what it says in the book.
