WELCOME TO OUR WEB SITE AND TO GOLF RIGHT GOLF ACADEMY where our motto is; " WHY NOT" PLAY YOUR BEST GAME
We will continue to teach Natural Golf Schools as I have in the past plus Golf Right Golf Academy schools and lessons. ....
The Six Timing positions of the Single Plane Swing The 1st timing position is to maintain the Y angle made by the arms and the shaft of that club (created by the setup) until the hands reach the trail thigh. This is also known as a one piece takeaway. This will be achieved by using the shoulders. The 2nd position is when the arms reach parallel to ground on the back swing and the wrist is at a full cock, the shaft will be a 90 degree angle from the arms and pointed straight on plane. The 3rd timing position is with your hands still in the cock POSITION the shoulders will rotate forward until the sternum is facing the ball. The 4th timing position is when the arms and the club shaft form the letter “y” for the third time in front of the lead thigh. The 5th timing position is when both arms and parallel to the ground and the shaft of the club is pointed at the target. The 6th timing position is not really a timing position per-say but only the complete follow through to a relaxed finish.
The Nomenclature of the Golf Swing .... INSTRUCTION The Arms
Next we move to the arms. The arms serve many functions in the single plane / Natural golf swing and setup such as angles, leverage and timing. None more important that achieving the correct angles in the set-up for a single plane swing. We will only be talking about the setup position of the arms in this chapter.
Although some think both arms together form a single plane, this is not accurate. To start with, only the trial arm and the shaft form the single plane. The lead arm serves totally different functions in the setup and the swing. These functions are, to obtain the leverage and to extend the club head to it’s fullest as it moves around the pivot point. As stated before the lead shoulder is the pivot point in the swing. Leverage and extension is what produces the power in the swing. This is why maintaining spine angle is so important, (see Spinal Alignment), the steady of the spine angle the more consistent the pivot point. The more consistent the pivot point the more consistent the swing and the more consistent the swing the lower your scours.
The lead arm extends out fully to form a straight line and allow the club head to extend to its fullest at the bottom of the swing thus gaining the club head speed necessary to produce the power in the golf swing. I've been told by my students many times, I didn’t know the lead arm was that important. Well it is, because the lead arm helps to determine not only the path that the club will take but also the correct descending angle. To fully understand this chapter you may need revert back to the picture on nomenclature of a golf swing. As one can see in that picture the only straight line you have in the golf setup and swing is the lead arm along with the shaft of the club.
By getting the correct grip with the lead hand and holding the club parallel to the ground but in front of you extending to make a straight line mentioned above. Maintaining that straight line and assuming the other steps in setup, simply lower the head of the club to get the correct ball position. This position of the lead arm is what's known as the straight lead arm. The straight lead arm should be maintained throughout the setup.
While the shaft is in a straight line with the lead arm it is not in plane. Actually the plane of the shaft in regard to lead arm will be almost parallel but in line with the lead arm. Not on plane.
Next we move to the trail arm. The shaft of the club and the trail arm is what forms the single plane. I cannot emphasize this enough. The trail hand is positioned on the club in such a way that allows the club shaft to run parallel to the bottom of the trail arm when seen from a side view. See the chapter on grip, using the black dot. ....
Commits and letters, Bill Gaines has been my golf instructor for over 2 years. His instruction has help my game go from a high 90’s low 100’s to shooting in the low to mid 80’s and I have been able to break 80 three times. WOW!!! He has the unique ability to explain how to play golf not just hit the ball. He cares about his students. After the lesson and you have had a chance to try out what you may have learned you might need to tweak some things you have learned he will take the time to give you the additional information you need to make the tweaking work. If more instructors would follow his example the golf world would be changed. He truly is a Superb Golf Instructor. Sincerely, Randall A. Matheny

Golfer and the Teaching Pro.
As golfers, we go through several stages in our golfing life. First we think, “That game can’t be that hard.”, so we go to a driving range to hit some balls or go play our first round of golf. By the time we find out that this game is "that hard", we’ve made at least one good swing or one good shot. We think, “If I can do it one time, why can't I do it all the time?” Golf is such an individual sport and the challenge so great that we get hooked! So we get some clubs and set out to master the game. We think it can’t take that long. Little do we know! Only after years of frustration in most cases do we seek HELP. Only then do we admit to ourselves that we don’t have all the answers. By this time, we have developed bad habits that will take a lot of time and hard work to overcome. This is where the Teaching Professional comes in. The Teaching Professional is an individual who has dedicated his or her life to teaching the game of golf and who has only one thing in mind, that is to help their student become the best golfers they can be. With the Teaching Professional's help, the golfer can work out of bad habits. With the right technique and the right frame of mind, they can develop a repeatable golf swing. The Teaching Professional (in most cases) has set aside his or her game just to concentrate on their student’s game. He or she gauges success only by the success of their student’s game. Which leads us to NATURAL GOLF. Natural Golf has developed a swing that is so simple that it’s a pleasure to play and teach. The palm grip and single plane swing is much easier to learn and teach than the conventional swing. Once you learn the skills you need, you will be well on your way to playing your best golf. The drills (that we teach) were designed to help you learn these skills. Do the drills as directed and you will see how easy the swing is to learn, but you have to do the drills the right way! Golf is the only game where there’s no one to help you when you get on the course. Once you address the ball, the swing, the game, it’s all you. You get all the credit for the good shots, and all the blame for the bad ones. There isn’t any better feeling than a good round of golf, or a worse feeling than a bad one. There may only be a 5 or 6 stroke difference between the two rounds, but what a difference in how they make you feel. With this in mind, doesn’t it make more sense to learn the simplest and the most effective swing in golf? THAT IS THE Single Plane GOLF SWING! Copyright © 2008 GolfRight Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Monthly Tips Sept, 2007 When learning a setup, it is a lot easier when you work from your feet up, not from your head down. October, 2007 It has been said and I agree that 80% of shot making can be contributed to the setup. So if you can stop 80% of the flaws in your swing before you swing, isn't worth learning? Nov. 2007 Practice with a purpose, practice with a goal but most important, practice only one thing at a time. December 2007 Practice the drills slow to be able to make the swing fast. In other words the slower you practice the Drills the faster you will learn the SWING January, 2008 It is important to learn one drill before moving to the next February, 2008 The worst habit a golfer can have is the habit of "Playing Swing instead of Playing Golf". March,2008 To play your best learn to play from "Green to Tee" ! April,2008 Putting is the most important part of the game, not for the score but because of the way we think! If you three putt for a bogie you are so mad you see "RED" but if you one putt for a bogie you fill so good and can't wait to get to the next tee. It's the same score!!! May, 2008 Warm-up Start by using a 7 iron and pick a target over 250 yd. away, hit short shots going at it . Gradually get longer with your swing and distance until you are making a full swing steal going at the target. Hit the club you will be hitting off the 1st tee (at the target). Chip, putt and then go and play. Do not try to hit to many balls before a round. Hit them after the round.
June, 2008L When Practicing the Drills with a impact bag, place the bag in the front of and at the out side, (target side) of the lead foot and make sure the arms are extended with the club face square to the target line when the club head contacts the bag July, 2008 Swinging down the line is not what most golfers think it means. Swinging down the line is not the target line but the plane line. The plane line and the target line will only marry and become "one" through our impact zone. August, 2008 Do not get out of your Balance or Posture to get to a single plane, don’t get out of the single plane to get to ball position and do not get out of your setup to make a golf swing!!!” September,2008 The most important position in the golf swing is at impact! When the club impacts the ball is all that matters. The path on which the club is moving and the angle of the club face. Think Path and Face. October,2008 When playing the short game a good rule of thump is the closer one gets to the green the more the weight goes to the lead side. November, 2008 Never get into the game so much that you put the results of the shot before the "execution" of the swing!. December, 2008 When Practicing your Putting make sure to Practice the distance before Practicing the line January, 2009 Do not try to hit to many balls before a round. Just a few to warm up and get a fill how you are swinging. Hit them after the round and work on what gave you trouble (if any) that day. That way you will know what to practice and why. February, 2009 Do not try golf shots on the course that you have not practiced on the driving range March,2009 It’s not where you are at address that madders, it’s only where you are at impact that madders. April,2009 When making the single plane swing think of the motion as everything follows, nothing leads. What is meant by this is, the brain starts the swing, the shoulders follows the brain, then the upper arms, the forearms, the wrist, the hands, the shaft and finely the club head. On both the backswing and the forward swing. May,2009 "To produce the power every golfer needs in their golf swing, it is essential that they SWINGS to the "bottom" of the swing and not to the low point !!! June,2009 When it comes to putting, to successfully make the putt in my opinion it takes 25 percent biomechanical skills and 150 percent confidence. July,2009 The single plane is not from the shoulders to the club head but rather from the Spinal Column to the club head. This being so when getting the Set-up reach outward with the shoulders to get the single plane.
To ball is to make sure the face of the club does certain things through the impact zone. All we are trying to do when it comes to hitting a golf ball is to make sure the face of the club does certain things through the impact zone. All we are trying to do when it comes to hitting a golf ball is to make sure the face of the club does certain things through the impact zone.
