Manuel de la Torre Golf Clinic - 1987 - The Swing Concept

[@thomasfraser9072]

Swing the club with my upper arms. Don't worry about turning my shoulders to any particular degree. Keep the club head square to my body during the swing. On the backswing feel free to swing hard. The momentum of the club itself will shift my weight to the trail side. The momentum of the downswing will shift my weight to my lead side for my classic finish. After 40 years I now know how to swing a club and will ignore all the bullshit from the rest of the PGA teachers. Thank a million for posting this remarkable teacher. 👍👍👍👍👍🙂❤️🤗

[@holeinonedrywall1877]

This is gold. Haven’t been above 76 since watching this. Simplified all my thoughts. I’m thankful for all the questions these guys had because it really allowed Manuel to articulate what he was trying to convey to his students. He was trying to end this session when the real gold came out

[@tjhookit]

I wish I could shake his hand. I am 46 years old just getting back into the game after not playing for 8 years. I played professionally in the mid 2000's and even hold a course record in California. However....my lack of consistency was ridiculous and if my timing was off forget it. I damn near drove myself crazy recently trying to find the "key" to my swing....which meant something new every week. After watching this video last month it all made sense, and I have never swung the club better.....and so easily without 3 or 4 different thoughts. I may even have a go at the senior stuff in a few years lol. Thank you for this!

Greetings...To the men/women/youth/devotees of Manuel's teachings. This video did not initially "sink in" until watching the above video a couple of times. There is so much knowledge here...that I wasn't aware of really what Manuel was saying. Then listening and watching numerous times, this video is so beneficial and always a guide to fall back on!!! Thank you, John Hayes...thank you Manuel/ Angel and Earnest Jones. A very "Special" thank you to Manuel de la Torre. Kindness from Australia.

[@rvhextall]

He's very good isn't he. I think he struggles a bit with the explanation though and over complicates it. Shawn Clement would have loved to discuss golf with this guy I bet. Clement knows how to explain it all and what Manuel is trying to say and why, due to our task, which is to throw the club at the target basically or cut grass/dandelion stems with the bottom of the club. Just put a ball in the way.

[@SurprizedDaily]

Have a look at and read of the following....highly recommend checking out the wiki link at the end of this comment folks......Ernest Jones was a very successful teacher back after WWI when he lost his right leg from the knee down, yet was still able to shoot great scores (83 on 1 leg, his first round playing after losing part of his right leg! then a 72 after on a long tough course) Checkout the iki link below! Our bodies know the "hows" as soon as our minds give it a 'task' and as so many say, "paint the picture of what we want in our mind", then it's as simple as allowing the body to produce the right motions to get the 'task' at hand(s) done! Ernest Jones taught many of the greats back in his day, most notable being Glenna Collett-Vare who some of the best say was even better than Babe Zaharias, he also taught the likes of Betty Hicks, Horton Smith, Lawson Little and others. The mental pictures we paint in the minds eye, imho is the biggest key to the golf swings puzzle! Not one human on earth has to think about which muscles do what in hammering a nail, walking, talking, swinging any other object, yet golf, far too many seem to want to over complicate everything, by 'thinking' about all that babbling being said by so many teachers out there! Ernest Jones was saying the following back in the early 1900s - - The drastic simplicity of his approach to golf instruction met with rancor and objection when he was invited by the PGA (Professional Golfers' Association of America) to present his work. Horton Smith, then the incoming president of the association, told Jones his system was "..too simple. We wouldn't sell enough lessons." Jones responded, "That's the trouble, you want your students to keep on suffering. Once you get your people to swing the clubhead they will improve." Perhaps much to the PGA's chagrin, whereas an average pro would have given about 600 lessons a year, Jones would give many times that number.[3] One of Jones' devotees was Angel de la Torre who in turn taught this approach to his son Manuel de la Torre. These two professionals alone would add thousands to the list golfers who benefited from a "club-focused" approach to golf. Jones often said, "The trouble with the teaching of golf, is that one is taught what a swing produces [body movement], instead of how to produce a swing [club movement]." Manuel de la Torre was the preeminent authority on the Ernest Jones approach and further developed it in his teaching. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernest_Jones_(golfer)

I have incorporated his teaching in my swing it's almost magical how well my ball striking has improved as long as I leave it alone from the top still a work in progress

[@robsaxepga]

I gotta say the same. Yesterday I played and was just experimenting/practicing. I felt I was swinging but felt "tied" up. From Manuel's book, I took a picture of the swing concept and saved it to my favorites on my phone. So I just tried to swing the club over my shoulder then over to the other shoulder. I started hitting really well but what it showed me is that I had been bringing the club around on the backswing rather just swinging it up over my shoulder. The freedom in the swing I experienced was instant. It's so simple. I'm a 3 handicap and was a pro for 15 years. The body responds to the swing. I've made it too difficult for myself.

[@tullochgorum6323]

I don't play golf, but I do play violin. And it's the same issue - the teachers make the bow-stroke exotically complicated. This concept of simply swinging the arm and keeping it simple is fundamental enough to be valuable in many other applications!

Yesterday I went to the driving range. I swung the way I normally do and the results were the usual - 175 yards with my 7 iron with a dispersion of around 40 yards. Ball striking was rather inconsistent. Today I went to the driving range after discovering this video. I watched it intently three times in a row and then applied at the range what Manuel was trying to convey to his students. I hit my 7 iron on average 190 yards and my dispersion was around 20 yards. Ball striking was far more consistent. In essence, I added 20 yards to my distance and halved my dispersion in one practice session. It’s the happiest I’ve ever felt walking off the range. Pay attention to what this man is trying to teach you, I’m not saying you’ll hit your 7 iron 190 yards but if you apply this technique, you might just find the consistency you’ve been looking for. Good luck guys and gals. Cheers.

I've watched this video and played 4 rounds trying to incorporate his thought process. It's so simple and powerful when you just place the club over each shoulder as he explains using arms correctly. I found that I'm aiming better and the dang ball just goes where I set up to. I'm getting better at trusting it because if you try to hit the ball it's not a smooth swing. I wish Manuel had many coaches that learned this method and still taught it today. He was truly a charismatic gentleman.

This reminds me of the lessons I got as a kid. He was taught taught by Ernest Jones. Thanks for posting

[@Heavyperro]

Watched these videos last week and today I took my first lesson from an instructor that learned from Manuel. The lesson was so common sense driven that by the end of the lesson, I was convinced of two things. 1. golf is a great game. 2. Golf is not complicated. We make it harder than it really is. What priceless lesson.

[@marudebaka6041]

To me the most important concept in this entire lesson was the part where he said something like "my job is to move the club.....I don't have to worry about the ball, that's not my job" or task or whatever it was he said. This is the real key. He was NEVER talking about HITTING a golf ball. He only talked about SWINGING a CLUB.

[@garysimpkins1452]

The You Tube teaching videos are a great and important supplement to de la Torre's book "Understanding The Golf Swing" and the videos therein-primarily because there is a dialog beyween instructor and student. Please keep them posted.

[@hamchillyvlog6034]

I come from 2020, and I do confirm this is how to swing clubs. If you master these, you can do whatever you want. People nowadays are come up with way too much body movement. the lower body must support upper body. that is the key.

[@wworld00]

I'm reading his book right now. Thanks so much for this wonderful video. I got back into golf last year and have been following a more technical book/theory. That has really helped, but Manny and Ernest Jones work help to simplify things and stop me from thinking too much.

[@markhumphrey8894]

Just got his book also. Love how easy he makes it. Would have loved to take a lesson from him. Leave your wrist and hands alone. Man they release beautifully when you don't try to move them. I think that why a practice swing is so smooth but then you get tense and use your hands on the down swing. Trust that you only move your arms on the down swing. The contact is so much better and no unintentional slice or hook.

[@jardinesydney9447]

at 12:00 what MdlT is saying here is what I call "5 times Parallel" Whenever the shaft is level with the ground, it should also be parallel to the target line. ...and this happens 5 times during a full golf swing. This is a major component to hitting the ball at your target consistently. I teach this principle to all my students. I never knew MdlT taught this as well.

I love this swing concept and I’ve been working through it.

How do I swing the club back and have the lead wrist flex naturally instead of cupping?

[@jockesjosteen3569]

To summerize What he is saying just swing the darn club up and then down as fast as u can and if you are relaxed the body Will find the best way for you- so being relaxed is the key and just stay away from doing anything yourself let the body feel whats the right swing for you and everyones body has a different swing so just feel instead of think and the perfect swing Will unfold. Your body already knows how to Do that augomatically if u just let your body find its natural way of swinging if you are focusing on making correct hip motion or anything else you Will tense and your body cant Do whats right hence Thats What he means when he says let your arms move freely without interrupting

[@IrishSpursFan]

simple and brilliant 😊

[@chaddy-me-boy8299]

Hmmm. What makes it harder is we get in the way of the free swing! Manuel reminds me of Fuzzy Zoeller, keeping it simple like Moe, and his teaching is what I saw in Tom Watsons swing while I was on a tee box with him.

[@tyronewilliams3634]

When Manuel wrapped his arms around the golfer’s arm to prove that the hands can’t swing the club on the downswing, the same demonstration can be done with similar result on the backswing. I’m going to keep it simple and focus my intentions on my hands like Earnest Jones. Feel is not necessarily real so the two styles may very well be the same.

[@FredCDobbs-er4qd]

Manuel stated that you swing with the arms. Mr. Jones said that you swing with the hands and fingers. I "swing" like neither stated. I start the swing by turning to my right, from there my hands pick up the motion of the club. My hands are the only thing in contact with the club so they are where the message to my brain originates. No one can tell you how it feels when the club is swung. You have to learn it by doing it. Most golfers hit a golf ball by using leverage. Swinging is totally different. Your last sentence summed it all up pretty good.

[@TheWedgeWizard]

Everyone knows reals vs feels are usually different. Most newer golfer are automatically right hand dominate, that causes all shorts of issues including casting and over the top. Both hands are very much used together but most people are going to have much more success focusing on lead (left) hand control. It’s like pulling a trailer vs pushing it, there’s no stability pushing. So when most people try and swing lead hand dominate, they end up using both hands equality, especially for most who let their right hand be dominate unconsciously. Each player is different and require unique feels but generally speaking feeling your lead side pull is going to have much more success than a trail hand push. It’s been shown with high tech motion capturing equipment and is the feeling many many great players have. Personally I’ve felt lead hand control for over 25 years now playing to a + (better than scratch) handicap. I might have some more right hand feel for flops, high shots, hooks, etc. my right hand is working just as hard but as far as squaring the club face and controlling trajectory’s and shapes, lead hand is king while trail (right) hand is just there to add speed and stability. ⛳️🧙‍♂️💭

He started to explain coil and was interrupted. In his book he says, "Coil is the result of swinging the club over the shoulder with the hands in the backswing with the wrists extremely free. If the wrists are firm, there can be no coil." Is the "coil" the body coil, shoulders turning and hips staying or something different? Thanks, Tim

[@briano6268]

Tim, I took lessons from Manuel for the last 10 years of his life. Sure wish I'd found him sooner. As to your question I know that he felt the coil involved the reaction of the wrists, hands, and golf club to the momentum of the backswing. As far as the body he believed that it simply responds to the motion of the swinging elements (hands, arms, club) throughout the swing.

22:16 Amazing how Manuel breaks down he arms/forearm/wrist. I've never seen teaching like this. Use your arms and let gravity pull the forearms and wrist through. That's what we all do with a practice swing. If we could only trust to do the same thing at the ball. I think once around I do it correctly and that's when I say " Wow that was effort less and it went so straight". If you don't fight the club and gravity you almost play effortless golf and wont hurt your back. Cant wait to play again this Spring.

[@TPH0316]

He starts to talk about coil, at about 16.19 and he says, "and the coil is..." and someone interrupts. What is the coil? Is he talking about the coil of the body? Does he want the arms to start the down swing, but the coil remain? Or is he saying the cocked wrists stay cocked? Any help would be appreciated. TPH

[@real_Leo_Chang]

The coil he is referring to is the reaction from taking the club at address to the top of your shoulders. Its the shoulder and hip rotation going back, which is triggered by first the hands (takeaway) and then the arms (at top of the backswing). Yes, he (and not only him, but countless old school instructors) wants you to start the downswing with your arms to return the clubface to its original spot at address and gravity + physics will take care of the rest. Its pretty simple concept but extremely effective. "Swing back and then return the club to its original spot." He doesn't care about bowing of the left wrist or "swinging out to Right field" like many instructors teach today. "Swing back, swing through".Doesnt matter what you did or at what speed, just make sure you do the same going down. Downswing should always start with the arms like Sergio Garcia's father always said. "Like you are ringing a bell from the top" or Jack's "want my club to reach the ball before the buttons on my shirt". Golf is really a simple game in terms of the physics but because everyone is different in terms of height/weight.. swing plane will be different golfer to golfer. Modern instructors over analyze this but the concept has never changed for over 800 years.

Simplified golf, yes. Manuel just seems to not include the major role of the hands, since 80+ of the sensory and motor cortex is devoted to the hands and the face; necessary in our evolution to bring food to our faces Ref cortical homunculus. The rest of the body will support and balance the intent of the hands, especially during complex chain action movements, that happen too fast for conscious control.eg DS

[@dtgps]

Homunculus is the HOW
