The Only Guaranteed Way to Fix Your Golf Swing

Published: March 2, 2026

Over the next few minutes, I'm going to walk you through some of the most crucial elements to the RotarySwing Tour System. These are things that 99% of all golfers will never understand, but will lead to taking three, five, or — we've even had hundreds of students take a dozen or more strokes off their handicaps in only a few short months — using just these simple techniques. Before I teach you exactly what you need to know to have a safer and more efficient swing, I want to look at a couple of harsh realities of the golf instruction industry.

If you've ever taken a golf lesson or you've watched golf instruction videos online, you've probably discovered that while there are some really well-intentioned instructors out there, there's also a lot of misinformation, a ton of conflicting advice, and other recommendations that can hurt both your golf game and your body. This is one of the biggest problems facing the golf industry today. It's dangerously easy to spend time, hard-earned money, and see not a single lick of results. That's why more and more golfers are turning to tools like an AI swing analyzer to get objective, data-driven feedback instead of relying on opinion-based instruction.

Should You Model Your Golf Swing After a Tour Pro?

Part of the problem lies in the foundation of golf instruction in general. It's constantly chasing the dominant player of the day. Think about it — have you ever taken a golf lesson and had your swing compared to elite players, or Rory, or some other pro? Golf professionals generally teach one of two things. One, they teach you how to swing like the hot tour pro of the moment, whoever that may be, which changes all the time. Or two, they teach you a series of band-aids that have worked to fix their own golf swings. That's it.

The reality is, the golf swing should never change. The fundamentals of the golf swing should be the same regardless of who is teaching them, just like in every other sport — but more often than not, with golf, that's just not the case. That's where Rotary Swing sets itself apart from traditional instruction. We've based the entire Rotary Swing System on anatomy and kinesiology to develop a swing that allows your body to move powerfully, efficiently, and safely. Now, here's another question for you — do you know what you primarily learn when you go through the PGA program to become a golf pro?

Hint: it's not how to make people better golfers. Most of what you're learning is how to run a multi-million dollar business, which is what a golf course is. You're learning how to manage the pro shop, manage inventory, manage events, understand the fundamentals of agronomy, manage the carts. And then, you get very, very little on how to actually teach golfers how to swing. In fact, some instructors are still referencing a book that's 25 years old — and some of what's in that book has actually been proven wrong — yet they still teach it anyway. It's just not a priority.

Is that the type of golf instructor you want refining your golf game? Of course not, especially not when you have to shell out hundreds or even thousands of dollars in the process. Rather than continue talking about how life-changing Rotary Swing is going to be for your game, it's time to show you. So what is the Rotary Swing methodology? What's it all about? At its core, Rotary Swing is made up of a five-step system involving the stacking process I mentioned earlier. We start simple with setup and weight shift techniques, which I'm going to show you in just a second.

It's All About Your Body Movement

After we have those movements fully ingrained in your body, we introduce core rotation, the lead arm, the golf club, and finally the trailing arm. Understanding how each of these components of the golf swing fits into the entire movement is critical to having a safe, efficient, and powerful swing. In this video, I'm going to completely shatter all of your thoughts on what a golf swing really is. I'm going to share the secrets of how elite players are able to drive the ball so far with so little effort, every single time.

This is my favorite tool to help golfers understand how to swing a golf club properly. It's a flail — a ball on the end of a cable and a piece of wooden stick. Not that complicated, but as I move this around, I want you to pay close attention to something. As I move it around in a big circle, the ball's not moving on a very consistent plane — it's not moving very fast and it's kind of moving all over the place. But, as I start moving this stick in a tighter movement, pulling the stick in the opposite direction the ball wants to go, look what happens.

Not only does it speed up, but it's moving on a more constant swing plane and path. I can move the stick all over the place, which isn't very efficient. I'm working a lot harder trying to move the stick in the same direction I want the ball to go — and it doesn't work well. But when I pull in the opposite direction that the ball is going, look how fast this thing moves with how little I'm actually doing. This concept is fundamental to understanding why you need to start pulling versus pushing with your golf swing. That's critical.

We're going to cover that in just a few minutes in step three, but first, let's start with step one. Let's start at the absolute basics with weight shift and setup. One of the things we like to do with Rotary Swing Tour is to bust golf swing myths — and there is a lot of misconstrued information out there. One of the most common ones starts with the setup. There's a bunch of different things that go on with setup that people do incorrectly all the time and are taught incorrectly. I want to address a couple of those.

I'm going to start by showing you how to do it correctly. First of all, what's the most common thing you hear about stance width? Well, it's pretty simple to answer. In most cases, when you ask any golf pro, they tell you shoulder-width apart. I always ask them: okay, well, where are your legs attached? Well, they're attached to your hips, of course. So what does the width of your shoulders have to do with your hips? They don't have anything to do with it. Why would the width of your shoulders determine how wide your stance width should be? They usually can't give a very good answer for that — because there isn't one.

Your stance width is determined by the width of your pelvis, but we've got to go back another step further and think about it from an RST perspective. We think about things in terms of gathering requirements first. What are your requirements with stance width? What are you really trying to do? Well, the first thing you're trying to do is be really stable. With a proper stance width, you can swing the club hard without falling over — you've got a solid, stable base. You've met the first requirement.

The problem is there's more than one requirement with stance width. The second is, you need to be able to shift your weight fully without your head moving all over the place. If you stand really narrow, transferring weight is easy — you can shift 100% to your trail foot and 100% to your lead foot without your head moving much at all. You've met the second requirement, but the first one isn't met because you don't have enough width or stability to fight all the centrifugal forces that are trying to pull you over.

How Wide Should Your Stance REALLY Be?

How do we determine stance width? Two inches outside of neutral joint alignment — which we'll talk about in the full video series — will give you the proper stance width so that you can be stable while also fully transferring your weight without your head moving. Simple. Rotary Swing has fundamentals for every aspect of the swing that are based on science and your anatomy. The width of your pelvis is going to determine your stance width, not the width of your shoulders.

Some people have really broad shoulders and narrow hips. Some have broad hips and narrow shoulders. What matters is what width satisfies the requirements of what you're trying to accomplish. Now, one thing that most people also get wrong: where should your weight be? If I'm setting up to the ball, the most common golf instruction myth tells you that you should set up on the balls of your feet.

Should You Setup on the Balls of Your Feet?

And so again, I'll ask the instructor: why do you think I should set up on the balls of my feet? And the answer is always the same — to be more athletic. Okay, but athletic is a pretty vague term. By athletic, what do you mean exactly? Well, you need to be like a shortstop, ready to move in any direction. That makes sense — for a shortstop. He doesn't know which direction he's going to have to move. The ball could go back. He may have to run forward for a bunt. He doesn't know.

That makes perfect sense for a shortstop. Now tell me: in the golf swing, where are you trying to go? They look at me kind of funny. Well, you're not really trying to go anywhere. So why would you set up like a shortstop — who has to move in any direction — when you're trying to do the exact opposite and stay very still? That doesn't make any sense. Not only that, but in the golf swing, the club is applying a tremendous amount of force, trying to pull you forward. All this centrifugal force has the club trying to yank you this way.

If you set up on the balls of your feet and swing really aggressively, you'll see what happens. That's not a very good way to swing a golf club. Where should your weight be from heel to toe? There's a fundamentals-based answer and it has to do with what true balance really is. Stand straight up with good posture and slowly rock forward until you feel your heels start to lift, then slowly rock back until you feel your toes lift. Keep doing this back and forth until you feel — once you've stopped moving — that you feel perfectly balanced and relaxed.

You don't feel your feet clawing to keep you up. You don't feel like you're going to fall over backward. It helps if you close your eyes and let your body sense where true balance is. For everybody, with straight legs, it's going to be right through the center of your ankles. That's where your body is engineered to bear load — gravity. Our bodies are structurally designed to have weight through the center of our ankles. That's true balance.

So when you set up in the golf swing and you're trying not to fall forward or backward, where should your weight be? Over the center of your ankles. RST looks at every single part of the golf swing like this. Just these two setup cues alone will help you a ton in learning how to get more power out of your swing, be more consistent, and develop a much more effortless golf swing. With just those two pieces of advice, you're going to put yourself in a better position than your golf buddies who don't yet know what you've just learned.

But your setup is just one of the crucial elements of an effortless, powerful golf swing. Your momentum is really coming from weight shift, but where does all this power come from? What is the motor that really drives and powers a powerful golf swing? If you said your core, you'd be absolutely right. All movement should begin from the trunk of your body, where your biggest and strongest muscles reside. That forms the basis of step two of the RST system. Let's take a look.

Stop Worrying About the Golf Club

Let's keep tackling some golf swing myths. One of my next big pet peeves is how you should swing the club. There's a lot of information out there — lots of different ways to skin a cat — but again, with RST, we're all about efficiency. We want to do it the most efficient way humanly possible. That means moving certain parts of our body very little in order to move the golf club a long way. What most amateurs do is the exact opposite. They get so fixated on moving the golf club with their arms and hands, trying to position it in a place they think is correct — but the way they got there makes it impossible for them to generate power from the body in the swing.

Let me give you an example. Turning down the line for a second, I can show you a position where the golf club doesn't look that bad at the end of my takeaway. But what I did to move there was just my wrists and arms — I didn't move my body at all. When you look at it from face on, this doesn't look like a very good golf swing at all, because I haven't used any big muscle in my body. And I need to engage about 32 pounds of muscle to generate about 100 miles per hour of club head speed.

The Simplest Golf Takeaway You Can Make

You can't beat science — and I don't have 32 pounds of muscle in my forearms, so it doesn't make sense to just maneuver and manipulate the club. You've got to learn how to move your body correctly, and that's where RST really sets itself apart. To finish the takeaway as an example, you only have to move two inches. How does that make any sense? Move two inches, the golf club moves eight feet. Let me show you. Throw the club down for a second, because most of the time when you're practicing, you don't need it. You need to learn how to move from the inside out.

What I'm going to do is take my trail shoulder blade and focus on pulling it back in toward my spine. That's it. All I'm doing is taking my shoulder blade, pulling it back. As you'll notice, my body, my rib cage, the logo on my shirt, is now turning about 45 degrees open. If I do that with my arms in place and focus just on pulling that trail shoulder blade back, look where my arms go. I'm not trying to move my arms at all — I'm just trying to leave them there. As I move my body, my hands are moving a long way.

Now, what happens when I pick up the golf club? Look at that. I didn't try to move the golf club at all — I just moved my shoulder blade — and that moved the club all the way to a perfect takeaway. It's where you move from and which muscles you use that's going to determine what kind of golfer you're really going to be. With the Rotary Swing Tour System, we help you completely rewire the way you think about the golf swing. We're going to teach you how to swing from the inside out, just like the elite players you see on TV each week.

With the RST system, we can help you leverage that core rotation with just a few really simple drills to help you master rotation, hit the ball further than ever, with way less effort. RST is all about moving as little as possible to create maximum results. But weight shift and core rotation aren't even the most important parts of the Rotary Swing System. Next, I'm going to share with you the single most important mindset change that will have the biggest impact on your golf swing. This one thing alone has the potential to help you go from a 20-handicap ball striker to single digits with just a little bit of practice.

It's All About the Science

Like I said earlier, the Rotary Swing System is completely objective. It's based on science and physics, rather than opinion or conjecture. The most fundamental aspect of the Rotary Swing Tour System is in step three. It's the concept of pulling versus pushing in the golf swing. Most of my golf swing training aids aren't exactly conventional. You've seen my flail — now I'm going to show you my favorite one, and that is a truck with a trailer. How on earth does this help you understand anything about the golf swing? The reality is, this is going to teach you more about the golf swing than any book you've ever read, any tip you've ever seen in a magazine, and anything you've ever seen on television.

I want to show you a really simple demonstration that's going to further illustrate the difference between pushing versus pulling in the swing and why the trail hand is causing you a ton of trouble. If I take this truck and put my finger on top of it, and I just pull the trailer down the highway, the trailer automatically goes straight every single time. Without me trying, I can just put my finger on top of it, pull it, and it perfectly follows in line. Now, as soon as I keep my finger in the same spot but change the direction the truck's moving, almost instantly, the trailer and the truck jackknife. How does this happen?

What's changing here? My finger's in the same spot. I'm not pushing any harder, but instantaneously, the trailer changes the way it's going to move and starts to jackknife. This is exactly how I like to describe most amateurs' golf swings. It's pretty much like a big jackknife — a trailer being pushed down the highway — which you've never seen, for obvious reasons. Even just trying to back one up slowly in the driveway is near impossible, just like swinging a golf club with your trail hand and the trail side of your body as the dominant force. It's near impossible to do it consistently and correctly. That's why none of the tour pros do it.

They all learned to pull from the lead side — and that is the key to Rotary Swing. These three fundamentals of weight shift, core rotation, and pulling with the lead side of the body are three of the five components to a perfect golf swing that will lower your scores and make your friends envious of your ball-striking. But there's obviously more to an effortless, efficient, and safe golf swing than just those first three steps. Elite players know a little secret about how to use the legs and the wrists together to hit the ball miles with seemingly no effort.

I call this the pro power move. It is the number one differentiator between the drives of amateurs and pros on tour. What about that trail hand? If it's not doing all the heavy lifting anymore, then what's it supposed to do? The answer is going to surprise you. Those last two steps are absolutely critical to making the swing work like a tour pro's every single time. Are you starting to see how the Rotary Swing Tour System can not only add crazy yardage to your golf game with a laser-straight ball flight — but, more importantly, keep your body healthy in the process?

If every time you step over the ball you've got a laundry list of swing thoughts — keep your head still, keep your lead arm straight — I've got news for you: you're doing it all wrong. It's this common advice that so many golfers take as gospel that kills their ability to hit confident, silky-smooth golf shots. What about those injuries I talked about earlier? Every week I see the dreams of good golfers crumble under injury. Mike's quest to break 80, ruined by a torn labrum in his hip. Brian's goal to becoming a scratch golfer, derailed by recurring back problems.

Like you, they didn't realize just how problematic their golf swing mechanics really were. Improper movements are similar to a raging river carving deep canyons into the earth. First, you don't really notice any effects from one day to the next, but over a long period of time, everything changes drastically. While you might not feel your body wearing down today, as the months roll into years, it's a virtual guarantee that eventually, your body will succumb to all these harmful repetitive movement patterns. The thought of missing an entire summer of morning rounds on those beautiful dew-swept fairways, or that annual golf trip with your buddies, can be depressing. Eric even had to cancel his first trip to Pebble Beach.

Do you have any aches or pains in your body right now? Perhaps something minor, not sure what it is. Unfortunately, there's a good chance it's because of your current golf swing. This is a really scary problem — and it's exactly why I developed the Rotary Swing Tour System. Here's the great news. You can get more distance with less effort and avoid excruciating injuries like golfer's elbow, rotator cuff tears, or tendinitis. Rotary Swing Tour is the only proven swing system built with the help of biomechanists, orthopedic surgeons, and learning experts.

Not only will I teach you the exact movements you need for a safe and powerful golf swing, but I guarantee I'll help beat them into your brain so that you never go back to your faulty and dangerous swing habits again. While others are playing cards in the clubhouse, you're going to be out there enjoying worry-free, sunny days on the course and playing the best golf of your life in the process. Here's a question for you — do you know what Dustin, Bubba, Rory, and all these guys have in common, aside from major wins on their resume? They've all mastered one single move that lets them bomb towering drives miles past so many of their fellow competitors.

I guarantee when I tell you what it is, you're going to say, "I've totally seen them do that." Dozens of people pay over $3,000.00 each year to come to my clinics and learn this move. You should see the looks on their faces when they go from hitting five- and six-irons into the green to wedges. All the advertisements out there say that if you want to hit longer drives, what you really need is the latest and greatest driver. This is completely false. It doesn't matter what kind of driver you have — graphite, carbon, titanium, none of them will make you a better golfer if you don't learn the swing fundamentals.

If you went head-to-head with Rory today and he had a tiny 60-year-old persimmon wood while you had a brand new driver, who do you think is going to drive it better every single time? Exactly. For less than 25% of the cost of a new driver, we can change your golf swing forever. Over the last 15 years, I've become a little obsessive about developing this system. I knew when I left the tour, this would really be my life's work. Within a few years of digging into the research, it became crystal clear — there was a much, much better golf swing out there.

If I didn't develop it, learn it, and teach it, millions of golfers would continue unnecessarily hitting the ball poorly while injuring themselves in the process. The GOAT Model — the benchmark elite swing pattern we use to measure your mechanics — consistently demonstrates what a safe, powerful, and injury-proof motion looks like. Studying it reveals that poor swing mechanics aren't sustainable for your body, and four back surgeries in four years should tell you everything you need to know. Today is the day you get to stop worrying about golf swing injuries for the rest of your life and immediately begin lowering your scores.

I just recently got this email from Caleb H. of Napa, California. Here's what it reads: "Chuck, in 20 years of golfing, I've taken lessons from numerous PGA pros. I now feel like I have a better understanding of the golf swing than most of them. Since joining RST, I've gone from a 16 handicap to a 7.1. I hit the ball further and more consistently than ever before. I just turned 65 and to do this at my age is just the best. I truly believe you should be placed in the Hall of Fame for best golf instructor. Thank you."

Caleb's email isn't the exception either. I literally get hundreds of emails every year from people just like him — people who have taken RST to heart and are playing the very best golf of their lives. And today, tools like the GOAT Drill system give you an objective, rep-by-rep way to train these same movement patterns that RST has been teaching for years. Now, in just seconds, you're going to have the same access to my entire life's work. You'll have access to my library of swing videos. It's going to make learning the perfect golf swing so easy that even a fifth grader could do this. You're also going to immediately get the rest of the video you just watched, showing you the fundamentals of steps four and five of the RST system.

Now that you know your lead side should be doing a lot of the heavy lifting in the swing, we still need to show you what to do with that golf club and that pesky trail hand. I'm going to let you in on a little secret I got from Jack Nicklaus that completely transformed my own game and took me from shooting in the low 70s to the high 60s, almost instantaneously. When you join our Rotary Swing Tour family, you're going to get two bonuses that I've never been crazy enough to offer before. Remember that move I mentioned that Dustin, Bubba, Rory, and all those guys have mastered? The one I get paid over $3,000.00 to teach at my clinics? It's called the pro power move.

In just a session or two, it will help you add 20, 30, or even 50 yards to your drives. It's the move that every single tour pro has mastered that I hardly ever see amateurs do — which is crazy, given how unbelievably important it is. Considering how much money I make teaching this at my clinics, I'm probably a little bit nuts to do this, but as a free bonus to new RST members, I'm going to teach you exactly how to pull off this pro power move. Will it have you hitting the ball as far as Dustin and Rory? Maybe not — but it will have you launching rockets past your buddies.

They say the best walk in golf is from the tee box with your putter in hand. I disagree. I think the best walk in golf is the 30 yards between you and your best friend's best drive. With every single step you take past them, the smile on your face will get bigger and bigger. The pro power move will give you that feeling again and again. Combined with the RST system, it will have you doing it safely, naturally, and consistently. Your body's going to love you for it.

That's not all you're going to get when you join RST today. We still have two more bonuses that you won't find anywhere else. Like I mentioned, I spent eight years as a tour golfer. But do you want to know why I really, truly never made it? It was pretty simple — I sucked at putting. I mean, I was a really bad putter. I was a great ball striker — I even averaged 16 to 18 greens a round — but I struggled constantly to break par because of my putting woes. It wasn't until after I had retired and had a chance encounter with Jack Nicklaus that completely shattered everything I thought I knew about putting.

Imagine this: averaging 16 to 18 greens in regulation every single round, but racking up so many putts that you're struggling to break par. That was my reality. It was really frustrating. But literally in my very next round after learning Jack's putting secret, I began draining more putts than I would have dreamed of making as a pro. Sure, I've had ups and downs, but in the years since that chance meeting, I've gone from scores averaging around 72-73 to rounds in the 68s.

I know what you're thinking — if this putting secret is so revolutionary and my game has gotten so much better, why haven't I gone back out on tour? The answer is really simple: because teaching the Rotary Swing Tour is much, much more important. I told you, this is my life's work. This is what it's all about for me. For your second bonus, you're going to get this 11-part video series. It's going to walk you through exactly what I learned from Jack that day about the putting stroke that lowered my scores forever.

Let's recap. When you join us today, you're going to be getting several things. First, the full RST five-step training system. Our entire video library covering every single aspect of the game. The pro power move bonus tutorial that will have you hitting the longest drives of your life. And the bonus Jack Nicklaus putting secret that's going to completely revolutionize the way that you think about putting. Here's the deal — we provide an insane level of customer support to our members, so we can only take a limited amount of new members each month.

I want to make sure that everyone's questions are answered as they start learning the swing mechanics and making changes to their game. This offer is only for a limited time. There's a very good chance we won't be offering the pro power move tutorial or the Jack Nicklaus putting secret outside of our clinics ever again. We just can't really do it. If you want to learn the secret to effortless power in your golf swing, as well as the putting secrets of one of the game’s greatest players of all time, then today is the day to make that happen and cure your golf swing once and for all.

I want you to know it's absolutely critical to me personally that you get tremendous value out of Rotary Swing Tour. If you don't, then I don't deserve your money and we will happily give you a full refund, no questions asked. I totally get it — sometimes the only way to really test things out and know if something is right for you is to try it for yourself, so it's my goal to make that as easy, painless, and as risk-free as possible because I truly believe you're about to experience the best transformation your golf game has ever seen.
