Tom Saguto of SagutoGolf presents a simplified approach to the golf swing, prioritizing 'common sense' over traditional, complex techniques. By focusing on keeping the weight forward and the lead arm straight, golfers can maintain a consistent swing circle for better ball-first contact.
Keep your weight favored on your lead side throughout the swing to guarantee hitting the ball first.
Maintain a straight lead arm to ensure your club returns to the same spot every time.
View impact like driving a nail with a hammer—drive through the ball without consciously rotating your hands.
A simpler backswing involves taking the club directly to the top from your impact position, reducing timing variables.
Mastering the swing starts with small, shoulder-only movements before building up to a full swing.
