Perched on the driving range in Chicago, Illinois in 1994, with his clubs strewn about, I watched Moe Norman , the greatest ball striker of all time, strike shot after shot with effortless perfection. I could hardly believe what I saw. I was amazed at how simple his swing looked.
Intrigued and inspired, I quickly grabbed my video camera and recorded his swing. I wanted to have something to study. Something I could watch and mimic later. (You can see that rare 1994 Video on this page).
With video in hand, I couldn't wait to start my journey learning Moe's Single Plane Swing. I was determined to master his simple move.
I studied the video. All I could think about was "I need to learn to feel Moe's swing. If I could feel it, I can master it."
I thought it would be easy. Just match what he was doing from the video, right? Thats where I started to have problems.
Then, started drawing lines on the tv screen and I noticed something that you might call a secret.
