The Golf Swing – Feel vs Mechanics

If you could truly learn by feel someone would have written a book long ago and the golf swing would have been solved.

If you could truly learn by mechanics someone would have written a book long ago and the swing would have been solved.

Books on each methodology have been written and it still isn’t solved.  The truth is that it will take a combination of both feel and mechanics to bring it all together.  I wish I could find a country that has not yet been corrupted by the idea that mechanics are bad and feel is cool.  What is needed is the correct mechanics followed by their potential feels.
Unfortunately feels are fleeting and misleading.  At least with great mechanics you will never get too far from the truth.

About Golf For Geniuses

Mark Evershed believes that given the correct information in an organized manner, humans can learn anything. "Correct information" means acquiring knowledge and "organized manner" means proper teaching sequences. The golf swing is a series of motions that must be learned and understood and then performed in the correct sequence.
