Handicap established for the Golfblasters Swing

Over the past two years, with minimal practice, I have established a 12 handicap while playing once or twice a week.  The short game is what keeps this from being lower in number, but for an ideal easy swing for those wanting to participate in Business Golf Outings and network with groups there it isn't such a bad playing handicap.  Soon a site will be established in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin where one will be able to try the golfblasters swing and see just how easy it is to strike golf balls airborne so they don't appear as a goof in a golf outing.  If  one googles: golfblasters video 1 Or golfblasters wix.com they can read more information and see videos of this simple hybrid swing.  The Select 5000 hybrids from Hireko golf with oversize jumbo grips work the best for this swing.  Just two of these clubs, some random clubs from Goodwill, a nice golf bag with some golf balls and tees will make one appear as a golfer of sorts even though they are more truly a non-golfer.  One fact for sure is by using the golfblasters swing and the two clubs during the Best Ball format at an Outing, they will have fun blasting golf balls into the air as they have some fun networking hours with co-workers and others.  To be a designated golfer is no longer really needed to enjoy the Outing while even smashing shots into the air toward greens for a group score.  Look at it like an extended mini-putt game on the course with a swing to hit shots in the air just as easy as a mini-putt swing to putt golf balls toward holes on that course.  Only now there is the pre-outing activities, the round with three others on a team, afterwards before dinner, the dinner and prize time.  What a unique way to get in the mix of select golf groups now and not have to be a seasoned or even off and on golfer.  More on where one can try this swing soon to be announced at a later blog.

THE IRONWOOD HAMMER GOLF SWING...This is the result of several years of research, practice, golf course application, use of many types of golf hybrids, constant contact with golf companies that make various hybrid clubs available,  various types of rejections regarding offering the public an easier swing using hybrids in place of conventional irons, and making changes to club types in search of finding one type of club that can work for anyone just wanting to clobber, hammer, or pound solid shots in the air and play Once in a While...How does this sound?  Single Plane, Less Strain, Self-Train...These are the facets of the Ironwood Hammer Golf Swing.  The Self-Train facet will soon become a more VERIFIED PROCEDURE - Recommended by a Dentist who is Ultra busy expanding a dental practice, raising a family, and supporting a wife who has her own flexible real estate business.  The Self-Train aspect of the Ironwood Hammer Swing is quite simple.  One uses an endorsed Calaway Contact Guide Board to develop a tempo, and distinct path to steer the club into the ball.  PGA Head Professional Brad Calaway designed the board following my suggestions about using such a visual prior to hitting golf balls...One develops a swing pattern with an auditory sound of a 'clicking' noise of a rubber tee in place of the ball repetitively before hitting any ball.  Using far fewer motions than the conventional swing, accomplishing this impact with the tee has taken place within 5 minutes to 15 minutes for most people.  Successfully hitting golf balls with this procedure takes less than one hour.  Using the Ironwoods, soon available from a website in construction along with the more simple mechanics and motions of the Ironwood Hammer Swing, hitting consistent solid shots will become easier than a conventional approach.  So it seems like one can definitely utilize this procedure to first learn to hit solid shots off the guide board and eventually use the board as a guide while hitting shots off the ground which will lead to no guide needed as swing motions are established in the brain.  More regarding THE IRONWOOD HAMMER GOLF SWING will be written very soon.  This seems to be the year for the Ultra Busy People in the Workforce to be made more knowledgeable about a core type swing that is easier to learn, simple to reinforce on their own, and at least be hitting solid golf shots so participating in golf outings, playing once in a while with friends, or just hitting practice balls in the backyard - like shooting hoops in the driveway - will be possible.  Even selecting clubs for the type of play will be possible.  This year I will establish the type of scoring possible using seven clubs, including the putter, with the IRONWOOD HAMMER SWING.  Keep in mind too that PGA Professional Brad Calaway, now at Jefferson Golf Course in Jefferson, Wisconsin will be the only golf professional who knows how and why this hammer-swing style functions...one does not want to take facets from the Ironwood Hammer Swing and try to use them in a conventional golf swing...I will state that for sure.  In the next blog I will list the distances I am able to attain with various clubs.  As one develops a tempo or speed then they also develop the ability to hit golf shots different distances with the same club...and the Same swing style...which keeps it SIMPLE...

After a season of research and practice on the course I have discovered that most higher lofted hybrids work efficiently with this Hammer-Like swing style.  Even the Ping irons which are the most forgiving irons work quite well which surprised me.  I have established the fact that a scoring game in the 90's is doable with just one hybrid from tee to green once one finds a smooth tempo using the contact training board.  At this time I am expanding this golf venue to the non-golfing public by first offering cost-free trial of the swing at the Wisconsin Indoor Golf Center in Waukesha, WI.  Someone seeking to play and score well will find that a game in the low 80's is possible with just a three wood, 3-4 hybrids, and a putter.  Basically, since the swing plane is the same for all clubs, it will be easier for one to take this swing to the course especially if they take the few hours of time to develop a swing speed using the contact training board at home or wherever.  The youtube videos at golfblasters.com you tube videos (google search) depicts this practice routine and How-to quite well.  Well, into the 2016 season we shall go soon in Wisconsin.

YouTube now has three videos to view...search...golf blasters.com  Be sure to leave a space between the f in golf and b in blasters.  One will see how the first golf clinic will be experienced by the student who chooses to try this hybrid-hammer style.  Learning to hit solid golf shots using the Golfer's Footprint and this easier method happens within 30-40 minutes.  This could certainly be the CORE of the conventional swing as one can golf with it quickly, continue to get more proficient with it on their own using the Golfer's Footprint, and eventually in time decide to add more motions to gain more distance.  An understanding of the Slot, keeping down through the shot, and moving the hips out of the way for the arms to pass in front, Along with where to speed up the club will be set with the Hybrid-Hammer so one can add more back swing, body spin/turn, and forearm rotation in attempts to golf more conventionally.  In the meantime, the Hybrid-Hammer can be experienced quickly and those who would like to participate in Business Golf Outings can now learn quickly how to hit solid shots with just a few hybrids.  Practice how to hit more consistent shots can be scheduled on their own time.  In a best ball format one can feel better about hammering solid shots for their team and not be so tied up with scoring on their own.   Perhaps this is the definition of 'Recreational Golf' verses having a lousy conventional type swing game and realizing they don't have time to improve?  Most recently I am working with Village Golf in Waukesha, Wisconsin where Jim Rowe will fit clubs properly to make hitting solid shots even more consistently.  Having a club fit for one's reach and style plus more creates an easier way to hit better shots.  I am also using Synchron Vespa hybrids, both irons and hybrids - along with a driver designed by Jim of Village Golf for my game.  There are other hybrid irons now made by pro-line companies plus Jim knows of many clones that have nearly the same design.  I should mention he is also designs Power Built iron hybrids that function very well with the Hybrid-Hammer swing.  I will continue to expand this easier recreational format as I have not strained my cervical neck or L-5 lumbar area where I have bone/disc issues.  The fact that I swing in a Circle around a reverse K shaped body with no extended torque on my back or neck lets me know I can use this method for life.  I have to thank those designers who have made striking solid golf shots easier with hybrid clubs for sure!!

A Batting-Hammer Hybrid Back Swing

After training with a baseball coach who taught me the specifics of the batting swing, I have now discovered a back swing using hybrid clubs that is more efficient yet. Using standard hybrids or clones with slightly larger grips this back swing allows one to pause and consciously decide when to swing down to the ball. It would be like waiting for the right pitch except the ball is not moving. Positioning the ball just forward of center is the best position for the ball. The 'Do Not Cast' the club in the conventional swing is Actually where one starts the downswing in this style. That clock-hand motion back to the ball is where one speeds up the club. Also, using a hybrid provides the mass in the head of the club so the 'hammer' aspect is met at collision with the ball. Another aspect different from conventional means is having a ten finger firm grip on the club. The right hand ( for right handers) firmly gripped at the pinky finger region of the hand and a slight meeting of the forefinger/thumb actually Maintains a swing path of the club that one can rely upon to return back to the ball. There is a forward motion of the body to the forward side ( but not with a spin - more similar to Moe Norman from the former natural golf.) The thumb of the top hand (left one for right handers) is actually tucked into the palm of the right hand. This locks the club into position so it returns to the ball for a square strike. If one wants more distance simply use a less lofted club. I drive the ball in the 245-270 range with this style. Keep in mind at 64 years old and having neck and lower back spinal issues that this style prevents srain of these areas. The forward arm is also bent in the back swing but straightens on the down swing. Google: wix golf-blasters.com for some videos of this swing in the early stages. Again, who would know that the higher lofted hybrids AND hybrid irons would work with a reduced swing style? Don't forget this is a swing style that does not requre a set of lessons being that the motions and mechanics are reduced and the use of a Golfer's Footprint unit will aid in 'where' to steer the club in the beginning back to the ball for optimum contact. So it seems that many facets of the conventional swing that one should Not Do actually Work Fine with this swing. The casting motion in the downswing from a 'batters' bat position along with a move to the forward body side allows for a solid strike and is quite easy to repeat.

New Research & Development: Batting & the Hybrid Hammer

In June of 2014 the Hybrid Hammer swing was evaluated by a baseball batting coach. New facets of the swing had to be learned to authenticate that baseball batting motions, including the grip, could be used to hit golf shots with the oversized gripped hybrids. After learning that a longer shafted club is needed to 'bat' golf balls because of the setup of the ball farther forward in the stance, it was confirmed that the backswing was beneficial to the Hybrid Hammer Golf Swing to make it even more efficient. Soon the Hybrid Hammer swing will be introduced in Madison, WI. There will be swing trials one can schedule at a local driving range and one golf store where either Cobra Bafflers, Adams Hybrids, or Hireko Golf Hybrids will be offered for sale. Of course one will be able to try the swing using these hybrids and deside for themselves which model is best for them. With the use of the Golfer's Footprint, the special hybrids that 'hammer' the ball more efficiently than conventional irons, and the easy swing motions of the Hybrid Hammer Swing, a 45 minute maximum time will clearly show the student golfers that solid shots can be experienced Very Quickly. One will be able to choose to learn to golf with just one hybrid at first or select a set of different lofts available. The 'Choice' is theirs, as even the Golfer's Footprint training device can be purchased for one to continue 'on their own' without a series of lessons from any instructor. Learning a smooth swing tempo and swing path of the club is the first step. Within a week of practice for 30 minutes a day one can develop a sound swing to repeat and play golf with if they choose. This format is ideal for those who golf infrequently but would like to hit solid shots and enjoy golf more. I wlll blog soon again as this golf format gets more developed. Keep in mind that I developed the swing after sustaining spinal issues in my neck and already had one in my lower spine so the 'Less Strenuous' swing discovery was researched from this beginning. Who knew the ongoing design of hybrids would have a swing style that would be identified? Google...wix golf-blasters...and click onto More Videos to see some early stages of this swing. Perhaps this is the beginning of a golf swing style that is truly recreational. Hybrids in any realm seem to bring out a difference of some type as in automobiles. Now golf has one too.

New Clubs for the U-Hammer Swing, Diamond Tour Golf T-13 Hybrids

Golf-blasters.com here we come

Considering it is quite easy to learn how to blast golf balls into the air using a lofted hybrid (not found in stores) and the Golfer's Footprint, I wanted this blog to serve as a take-off point for people to find the www.golf-blasters.com site and go there.  You may find posted u-tube videos and other features that will help detail this swing method. 

Updated U-tube Video All-Hybrids Rec. Swing

http://youtu.be/BT5t4KnDoVc

http://youtu.be/pxxy5lNC7rY

http://youtu.be/GSK4EVWQzx0
These videos will surely clear up how simple and efficient this All-Hybrids Recreational Swing is compared to more conventional methods.  One can find many knowledgeable golf professionals for sure, who might even claim they have the expertise to find an alternative method for one to golf with physical limits.  The difference in my case is that I have the spinal issues (four of them- upper and lower) plus I have learned the natural swing, lever-power swing, a grip and rip swing, baseball applications from a professional, and hockey applications from a professional in that sport.  My study and practice comes from direct experience as well as having an initial lesson Trial that is Refundable if one is not striking solid shots within 45 minutes.   The decision for one searching for a golf method in this case is finding one with knowledge or finding one with experience and owning the actual physical issues at hand.  Go Play as the golf channel ad promotes!  Ok, how about starting with one club and establishing a sound swing path on your time?  Choices are really great now that these higher-lofted hybirds have been developed.

Seems at this point the All-Hybrids Recreational Swing works best with System Q hybrids from Hireko Golf.  I have experimented with this swing style using different hybrids now since 2003.  This year I will be establishing a game using the hybrids.  Just using the 33 degree from tee through putting scores bogey/double bogey golf but who is keeping a conventional score only using one club?  I still recommend to a beginner to start out with a 33 degree System Q hybrid and use the Golfer's Footprint to develop a swing path with speed.  One can even do that with this shortened swing in a standard size room.  Just recently I discovered at a golf retail store that the Rocket Ballz Driver with a nearly square face and soft regular graphite shaft works very efficiently off the tee.  So I suppose you could say as a recreational golfer I am now wondering about using a driver verses a 16 degree hybrid off the tee.  That is like the next level.  There may even be a 3 wood and perhaps a different hybrid that will work for longer distances.  We shall see!  Check out this new networking site for golfers!  WWW.GOLFNUT.IE 

Truly the Recreational Golf Swing

The grip of the most accurate golfer in history, Moe Norman:  Using his single plane discovery with a more upright stance due to spinal issues, the Golfer's Footprint - www.golfersfootprint.com for a self-instructional and maintenance purpose along with Off-Season Learning and maintenance: and the use of clubs not found in conventional golf stores from Hireko Golf - this is truly the definition of The Recreational Golf Swing. 

    One can practice anytime and even use the footprint indoors on the carpet while swinging over the impact area with the proper strong grip to reinforce that crucial zone in the swing.  Practice balls or large marshmellows are great to hit off of the footprint while indoors to maintain the correct hand position during impact.  The speed in the swing is mainly imparted between nine and three on a clock if one is facing the golfer.  If one pictures the numbers on a clock while facing the golfer you will realize that this shorter swing zone is totally possible to do in a standard room with eight foot ceilings.  There is no high back swing necessary or high finish so the club will never collide with the ceiling.
    Again using the lofted clubs at degrees of 16, 33, 37, 45, and perhaps 50 along with a putter, one can play great great golf.  The same swing and the same club design make all aspects of learning a golf swing are easier and more repeatable.  Perhaps one won't get that 250 - 320 yards off the tee with the 16 degree club, but this club can be used in the fairway also while being able to reach the 200 yard zone - More often in play however.  More shots in play equals better scoring an a more repeatable swing does not require long shots as the System Q hybrids from Hireko Golf all swing the same.  My previous blog has the link where one can order.  I alway order one inch longer shaft in graphite and one and a half longer in steel shaft because of the more upright stance.  Lately I have ordered a standard size grip whick allows me to tightly grasp the grip and maintain the club face square through impact.  There is a Golf Pride grip that appears like a wrap grip and that is my choice at this time. 
    If one is just starting out, start with a 33 degree loft, learn a sound repeatable swing and then move toward the 16 degree and perhaps next the 45 degree.  Just keep in mind that everyone will have a certain distance they hit these clubs depending upon the speed and stability they have in their swing.  Putting is its own art so one needs to find the putter they prefer and a method for putting.  I can show what I have learned in a later blog.  At first with the Recreational Swing I played a few golf holes in the latter part of the day and learned to putt ( chip putt actually ) with the 33 degree club.  This taught me some touch around the green and I even practiced this on a carpeted floor at home.  The best part of this is the fact that the same grip can be used in putting unless one decides to experiment as time passes. 
    So for the non-golfing - leisurely golfer - once to a few times a year - this Recreational Golf Swing is ideal.  No one to this point has tried to excel with the swing but it certainly is possible.  Why not, considering one can hit solid shots more often and very accurate shots so great golf is possible.  Can one find a driver that is similar to the 16 degree wood that can attain more distance for the tee shots?  That might be my next journey.  For now hitting shots more in play and teaching others will be my main goal.

Hireko Golf as a fine source for the hybrids

<a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-3046505-10454264" target="_blank">
<img src="http://www.lduhtrp.net/image-3046505-10454264" width="120" height="90" alt="Hireko - Custom Fit Golf Clubs at Discount Prices!" border="0"/></a>

Hireko Golf is where I found the System Q hybrids that have been most proficient to use in place of conventional irons.  The links to Hireko Golf Components are printed above in this blog. 
    I am now using a one inch longer graphite T-65 shaft that is grey and red in color along with a Lampkin Oversize Jumbo grip.  One can log onto the site and find the clubs under the Hybrids classification.  From that point there will be a spot to choose the degree ( these go from 16 - 55 degree ) and then customize your club by choosing shaft, length of shaft, grip style, type of grip, ferrule - which is the piece on the shaft attached just before the head of the club.  You will also receive a head cover with an order. 
    The 33 degee is the best club when first beginning and for using as a one club recreational approach to golf.  One can even learn to putt fairly well with it at first as I will show on one of my next blogs.  I should mention too that the lightweight steel shaft works well too as I started with that lightweight one and eventually just wanted a bit more distance so I tried the graphite shaft.  Both are very efficient but make sure to order at least one inch longer because of the upright stance in this style. 

So the hybrid club golf swing can be learned and played at first with one club, a 33 degree hybrid.  I use the System Q from Hireko Golf, a golf components company in California.  This is one of many hybrids that can eventually take the place of all irons in someone's set and game if they choose.  At first it is simply easier to learn a single-plane swing using the most vital mechanics of swinging a golf club and use the Golfer's Footprint for a guide on the ground.  I will detail the grip of this swing although in the pictures here notice I am not using body spin or back torque plus no high back swing is necessary to produce solid shots.  That grip I have mentioned does keep the club face square through impact longer than a traditional grip where the club face will roll over through impact and produce a shot that travels right to left.  I would rather know the ball is headed toward the target verses trying to play that right to left curve/draw.  You will notice how I stay back behind the ball at impact which is a vital component of any swing.  Even baseball & hockey players stay back at impact when they swing.  I will be seeking a golf course for the Sundowner's League I mentioned earlier so I will keep everyone posted if I locate one.  Perhaps other courses would contact the first course and check on the traffic and late day ( pre-sundown) revenue.  Meanwhile, a game at home using the Golfer's Footprint to protect the lawn and practice balls can be used to take turns and hit toward any simple target - like a rope in the shape of a circle on the ground.  Take 10 shots and score per round.  Maybe play nine rounds and see who scores the most points.  One point per ball in the circle.  Have fun.

After several months of experimenting I have now discovered a new venue similar to croquet for those who do not want want the game of golf offers. This game, considered the Sundowner's League will play for the $5.00 price of adult mini-putt at a course with up to perhaps 6 on one hole. Just a group of friends getting out in the last hour plus of the day and using one club, suggesting a 33 degree hybrid, which allows the ball to go airborne well and travel a distance of 160 yards if struck really well. One super feature is the use of a Golfer's Footprint guide board. This can be used at home for continued practice either using practice balls or one new gadget called the Strike-N-Reel, which is a tethered practice ball. One never has to pick up practice balls using this unique item. One ball! That's all! just like real golf or just like Sundowner's golf where you get only one shot still but Par, Bogey, etc. are not part of the game. It is simply the number you get when your ball lands in the cup on the hole. The purpose of the hybrid club swing is to make things easier plus self-instructional when using the mechanics I will show in the next blog. Basically one uses a high lofted hybrid with an oversize grip, a single-plane grip that maintains the club in one plane when swinging it ( founded by Moe Norman of Canada when establishing the legacy of the most perfect ball striker in golf ever), the use of the Golfer's Footprint, and ten minutes a day to maintain a swing path. What is really unique about just using the Footprint on the ground is the fact that once you can strike this flexible board across the red arrow on it and hear it dong-sound as the club passes over it, then you are ready to strike a ball. It is a pre-routine that trains one to stay back behind the ball and make solid contact. I actually practice hitting on it with no ball by setting it on the ground and swinging across the yellow middle section that is found along the red arrow at the impact area. I like hearing the dong as the board jumps in the grass which tells me that I am really staying down regarding my spine angle when striking across the impact zone. You can see this with the picture provided.

The Strike-N-Reel provides an easy way to train while reeling one ball back to myself and not needing to pick up practice balls. This unit is ideal for those 'on the road' as a way to maintain a swing while at the hotel. Sometimes there just isn't time to go off to a range for practice when business takes most of the day's time.

Single Plane Swing Verification

After years of experimenting with hybrids due to an auto accident where I sustained three upper neck spinal issues, I can honest attest to the Fact that having learned the Natural Golf Swing in 2002 definitely gave me the base fundamentals to continue golf with variations. Those variations have been with oversize grips on hybrids that took the place of my irons, except for the wedge use in the short game near the green.
Now, after careful study of the Natural Golf Swing again on websites with Moe Norman demonstrating and discussing his swing style, I discovered actually how he was gripping the club. I have also kept in touch with a Palm Springs, California Site featuring the Moe Noman Natural Golf Swing which is the Single Plane Swing Moe brought to golf.
Considering my fundamentals are taken from the Natural Golf Swing, I decided to try hitting standard irons again. This time I would employ the grip that I have seen from a Golf Academy based in Oklahoma and a video I watched on the internet of Moe explaining his swing while he hit golf shots. Because my impact zone was the same as Moe's explanation - Not Turning the Clubface Over through Impact - I adapted to the irons within 12 golf shots, a perfect dozen for me! I just never knew this actual grip from my former days with Natural Golf. At the time in 2002 larger than normal grips were featured and a ten finger grip was the standard.
Moe did not actually use this style when he set his records in competitive golf. He apparently switched in the early 1990's when Natural Golf first came into the picture. I used the grip described on the Single Plane site of the Natural Golf Swing from the Palm Springs, California school and the 6 iron I was first using stayed steady through impact providing a straight flight at about 148 yards. Of course one has to keep in mind that I am hitting shots now in 38 - 42 degree weather in Wisconsin and the golf balls are kept in the trunk of my car. I took some golf balls from home the other day and the same shots are in the 160 range with a straight flight.
I figure that isn't too bad for a guy who is 61 years old in December and has four spinal issues, lower and upper regions. Restricted mobility - YES - using the Single Plane swing, however, that Moe Norman brought into golf works for me. My other 'research swings' for the sake of a name work too but those are simply variations I discovered when I was introduced to the oversized grips and following new injuries and decreased mobility. If I had seen the actual grip Moe used with standard clubs I may never have found other variations so someday they may be useful.
I would reserve them for fundraising perhaps where baseball, hockey & non golfing folks can participate in a skills challenge / target hitting venue. As for me, I am very thankful to have found this pertinent information about the grip using standard irons with the Natural Golf Single Plane swing. I will now go on to perfect this proven swing style. Soon I will have a utube video showing the swing too.
I have been emailing Jerry Martin in Palm Springs who teaches the swing and keeping in touch with the academy he is affiliated with based in Oklahoma, the Graves Golf Academy. Now I really feel I am back to golf better than I have been because for me the hybrids were a fine alternative, but for many people they may still not be the answer for them to a proven solid shot making routine.
Being from Wisconsin and having raised in Illinois, I can only wonder how great it will be to travel to Palm Springs and consider being part of that golf academy there in the collllllddddd winter months. This could be the best get-a-way too considering all the other sites to visit in California. I know Palm Springs is just two hours from San Diego.
Now if I can just interest my oldest daughter and her friends about this swing style and Palm Springs, get them interested in golf, then I would most likely have to travel there more often especially from November thru April. Maybe from this point forward I can develop a golf get-a-way in Palm Springs, CA for people I meet back here in Wisconsin so they can enjoy this as winter activity with plenty to do there in assuredly warmer weather!
Bye for now. I will keep blogging on both the winter escape and the single plane swing as I go off to now discover what type of iron works best for me. Do take the time to look up those sites or ask me at scottyjohnd@hotmail.com.

Learning the Golf-Blaster's Swing 4 Recreation

It is refreshing to know for sure that there is another choice of golf for those who have decided for now in their lives that the expense of clubs, lessons, and time does not fit. To use one club, after hours for an hour or so on an off & on basis seems to fit their too busy lifestyle at this time. Maybe in time all that will change but during these just-4-fun-recreational days/years they will learn the basic Basics of hitting solid shots with that one hybrid, or maybe two if they choose. There is one place to attain more information regarding this golf-blasters style. It is the utube link.

Golf-Blasters Swing - Similar to Baseball & Hockey

For those who wonder if there is a reality in using baseball batting swing mechanics or hockey slap shot mechanics to golf a ball, the golf-blasters set-up using oversize-jumbo grips on lofted hybrids is very effective for both swings. This was verified and authenticated not long ago by a former professional baseball player from Milwaukee and an Athletic Trainer from a hockey club in Milwaukee. There will soon be an ebook for sale regarding the golf-blasters swing offered for sale on ebay. I will take email requests for the baseball & hockey applications at this email address: scottyjohnd@hotmail.com I like using a 28, 31, or 34 degree hybrid for the baseball swing style although when I was trained using the grip one uses to bat, I was slugging the ball over 260 yards on the fly with a driver designed with an oversize grip. Anyone who is proficient with the hockey slap shot or the baseball batting swing has less than a 15 minute window of success using these types of clubs to golf. The adjustments for baseball or hockey from the golf-blasters set-up would be involved with the grip on the club and the position of the ball related to the stance. All these swing styles have a wide stance so somewhere left of center for ball placement would be most applicable. Perhaps the game of golf would grow further as people become familiar with these two sports swings being applicable for golf - using the correct equipment for that approach however. There are several oversize and jumbo grips to choose from regarding this swing approach but the best results regarding the clubhead is a hybrid because of its mass. It is simply more efficient through impact than a conventional iron. It hammers the ball forward. I will report more results and findings in my next blog.

Utube Golf-blasters Swing - Hey Non-golfers - Consider this...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6aODpFvnpo

Here is that utube address again. I will work on getting it directly linked, but in the meantime really look at my hands in the picture as I have blasted through the ball area on the ground and continued the swing forward with a Tight Grip on the club with the Two-Palm hold. Not much to time or coordinate here really. My hands move into this position on their own at this point as I do not force any extra motions.

The Golf-blasters Swing Continues

Continued practice with the golf-blasters swing has shown me just how key it is to remain firm with the set-up and not add any addition motions to gain more distance. I am finding the most efficient swing thought, for the sake of having one to count on, is to make sure to return my hands to the position in front of the ball where they were at the address or set-up. By returning the hands swiftly and soundly with the Two-Palm grip assures the compression of the ball at impact and continuing forward in the swing plane. This is where the 'Blast' in Blasters comes into play. From about a ten o'clock position in the back swing I drop the club slightly and then briskly swing that locked two-palm grip back to the original position where it was at set-up and continue through the ball. The clubhead does not turn over as it collides with the ball and the ball is compressed actually as it is blasted into the air. This is all quite visible on my UTUBE link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6aODpFvnpo
There is now an ebook available also detailing the 5 steps of the golf-blasters swing. Email me directly at scottyjohnd@hotmail.com I still like playing with a 31 degree hybrid Synchron ll from Hireko Golf. I am convinced that the oversize grip is best for the Two-Palm grip at least in my average size hand. The one club approach is surely recreational but I may start using a putter on the greens as I am reaching 400 yard par fours in three shots and actually putting might lower my scoring average. Not too worried really. Just keep it Fun!!

The Golfblasters Swing!

This week we completed filming the introduction to the swing for non-golfers, The Golfblasters Swing. I wanted to keep it fun considering most people who will use this swing will only use it to go out once or just a few time a year. There are always company outings and with this swing one can learn to hit solid shots quite fast. Th exclusive feature of this swing that really makes it easy to strike the ball solidly is a two-palm grip. The writsts are taken out of 'that challenge' to get the club back square into the back of the ball. I refer to kroquet as one just uses one mallet in that game so why can't one just use most efficiently a Synchron ll twenty-eight degree hybrid for each hole - even for putting? The score is simply just a number on each hole without getting concerned about the standard golf numbers one the score card. The golfblasters recreation game can be played after hours with just a bit over an hour left of daylight. Most courses have twilight rates so find one that will even reduce that rate considering the time is limited. Of course, like in my case, one can become quite efficient with this one 28 degree club. I am hitting it 155-170 depending upon the fairway uphill or downhill. It takes me three shots to reach a 400 yard hole so I am now working on the same set-up for putting that I use on all shots. When I am inside 100 yards I choke down on the club to make it shorter and take the same swing. I will bend my knees more or widen my stance when I make the club shorter. I amazes me when I get an actual four on a hole because I have played the standard game for decades and missed attaining a score so low with miss-hit shots with a driver or iron. When one uses the same set up for each shot and just makes a few adjustments for distance, it is easier to repeat solid shots. So there may be a professional level eventually with the Golfblasters swing as we shall see. For those who just like to get together for some fun with friends like bowling provides, this Golfblasters swing will provide an easier swing that anyone can do and playing on a simulator may be the best platform so being together without walking the course is part of the program. Even year round this would be an enjoyable time with friends. I have friends that just go to driving ranges for relaxation so perhaps the Golfblasters swing will allow more non-golfers to just use that platform for fun with friends too. It is fun to hit solid shots in the air and aim at targets to create some fun. The backyard using practice balls can also be an ideal site for non-golfers too. This is the kroquet format if one uses hulla-hoops for targets or any other item of choice. Now here is finally a chance for those non-golfers to get proficient with the simplest of swings and go play 'their game' with friends who have the whole set plus more. Does it matter if all are having fun? Hope not! Stay tuned soon for the Golfblasters Utube webcast and continue to check out http://golf-blasters.com
