Publisher's Summary

The biggest paradox in golf is that the harder you try to hit the ball, the worse you do so. In The Keys to the Effortless Golf Swing, Michael McTeigue offers you a simple system of sequential body movements that produces a true swinging motion with every club in the bag. The result is increased distance and greater accuracy for all sizes, shapes, and ages of golfers for a minimum investment in learning time. The clarity and simplicity of McTeigue's frill-free approach to the golf swing leads the listener to a new experience of power and effortlessness. He truly shows how to build a swing you can trust and keep for life. If you love golf but have never played to your potential, here is an audiobook that you will quickly come to treasure.

My Swing

The swing keys provided in this book were extremely helpful. My tendency was to over-swing prior to reading this book. Now that I've spent considerable hours practicing the swing keys contained herein, my swing feels more effortless and effective results are more often achieved. Thanks!

It worked.

I don't believe anything in golf is a "quick fix". I had really been fighting my swing for a few months and was very tense (went from shooting in low 80's to mid 90's in a matter of weeks due to listening to other "tips"). I listened to this book and focused on free relax arms that bend at the follow through. Went out to do one range session, and then played - shot a 76, focusing on relaxed grip and arms.
Definitely worth the time and I hope I can keep these keys for life.

Worth your time

I am a fan of the rotary swing, while not an exact match, it is a very similar approach and actually is a nice compliment as you try to develop a consistent, powerful swing.

Where's the PDF?

The author keeps referring to the illustrations but we're not provided any as there's no accompanying PDF. Moreover, in the brief hour and forty five minutes, we have to sit through seemingly endless acknowledgements, thank-yous and credits. Once is more than enough. Of course I skip them but they consume way too much of a book that's already short. I suppose I'll have to buy the hard copy to see the illustrations.

Swing Don’t Hit

The author provides a series of concepts & practical drills as building blocks to assemble a repeatable and reliable golf swing. The book is compact and without fluff. I enjoyed both the book and audible performance.
