Hi Andy,

Thanks for the tips on curing my outside to in swing. I’ve been persevering with my new swing, even practicing a lot more than I use too, as I said before, the irons and the fairway woods have been nothing short of amazing in transformation, I sort of gave up with the driver and kept my old swing for that club only. However after a round it soon became apparent that I would get confused and do half an old stroke and half a new one. I decided to do the new stroke no matter what the outcome, and I’ve finally got on top of it.

I found with the driver that I was over thinking the forward push with the hips and concentrating too hard on that part of the swing. I found after a session on the driving range that if I forget about the hips and did everything I could do with the hands, shoulder turn etc the hips came through naturally. I was pushing them through without realizing it, but because I over thought it I over did it and it became very awkward.

Anyway to get to the crux of it, I am/was? A 12 handicapper, and today I have completed a round on what is regarded as one of the toughest courses in the North West of England, 2 under gross!! With 5 birdies. And that wasn’t a one off, I’ve been pushing par gross for the last three rounds and today it all came together.

I realize I will have bad days when my swing doesn’t come together, but at least I know now what I have to do to put it right.

I can only thank you for instructions, and let’s hope I’m off scratch after this season.

By the way I tell everyone at the golf club about your web site, but it
might be a double edged sword, don’t want them getting too good do we?

Many thanks

Andy,

I purchased the new four magic moves of winning golf over 12 months ago and I would like to let you know how my golf has improved. I was a 16 handicap player that went out to 17 last May but then I really got into your programme and practiced hard with the result my handicap came down to 14 in September, it is now at 12 and I know it will be lower.

My fairways hit has gone up from 50% to 72% with the regular comment from playing partners of “don’t you get bored hitting the ball so straight?”
On a par 70 course I have had scores as low as 72 and more importantly on a regular basis.

My game did lapse during the summer and I went back to practising the main points of maintaining the early wrist break in the downswing and the wrist position at the top of the backswing, this sorted it out . Thanks for all your help and I will continue recommending the new four magic moves of winning golf.

Regards Vince

HI Andy,

Maybe a Ford Escape 4X4 will be in your future… We have a little experience with snow in Canada.

I’ve been using the 4 new magic moves now for an entire season, and I was really able to see the difference on the score card. Just being able to keep the ball on the fairway is a great advantage, and the extra distance is a real bonus. Now I just have to work on the whole backspin thing …

I hope to be playing near Orlando Florida, in February.

Andy,

Per my letter of Nov, 27, 09, I started using your first magic move.

The move has given me the best feeling and direction in hitting a golf ball. (71 yrs)

For the first times been able to reach par 4′s & 5′s in prox.

I have tried many golf programs instructions, lessons, and books.

I now understand the golf swing better than ever.

Living in Chicago, I looking for warmer weather.

Sincerely,

Don Di Napoli

Please explain your reasoning behind your club selection in the snowbank.

Surely an up-to-date golf writer such as yourself would have one of those enormous fashionable putters – much more efficient for the distance of snow flight you required.

Nick.

It works!

I am much more consistent, incredibly straighter, and have confidence in my ability to hit the ball where I want it to go. Because of the consistency, my scores are lower.

Golf is really fun in retirement.

Word of caution…the instruction must be followed to the letter.

Hi Andy,
I read the first 60 pages of the new magic moves that I found for free on the internet and although some moves seemed rather strange to me I decided to give them a try.

After the first practice session I ordered the whole package because it really made sense me.

Now after a few months and although I haven’t time enough to practice as much as I wanted, I feel that my swing is improving and that I can play better and steadier golf.

You gave me a roadmap for the swing using a few basic moves which are maybe not easy but surely not impossible to learn.

It really is the first time that I understand what I should do during the swing and that I know what to work on during practice.

Thanks and keep up the good work,

Jan

Greetings Andy,

To-day I went out with this instruction in mind – concentrate on only one thing! ( break my wrists early)

I did just that and had 42 stableford points and that from a 28 handicap!

I had a ball!!!

Many thanks for the tips.

Cheers,

Bruce

Hi Andy,

Your input in my golfing game is starting to show positive results. When
I first started getting your mail I was still a 34 handicap. My handicap
has dropped to 19. I am enjoying my game and I have confidence in my
game.

Looking forward to further tips and guidance.

Kind regards

Colleen

Andy,

Went down the driving range this lunchtime. I have always hit with a slice, but the early wrist break, new stance etc all kicked in slowly and by the end of the session I was hitting the ball long and straight with my driver. I took my rescue wood along as well and was amazed how I was hitting balls off of the deck true and straight like never before. I hit a few shots with a slice but the feeling is different and will take time to get use to. I think it helped having the correct grip to start with. I always use to over swing on the backswing and hit my back but the early wrist break stops you in the right place. Lots to read and practice on, I’m very encouraged. This technique is a revelation

Regards

Paul Chapman

Ciao Andy

First thanks for the great work of yours.

My situation is the following

The ball gets much longer and it is much higher my 9 iron now goes 110=115 meters.

The big problem I am facing now is the direction.

First all the balls went to the left now some goes even to the right.

I am gonna keep working.

All the best

Rok

Thank you Andy,

I am a left handed and I love your ebook for left handed golfers. I am
looking forward to your list for left hander’s. The flight of my balls are
longer and straighter. I am even getting a slight draw on the ball. It’s
really exciting to get rid of my slice and when I address the ball I have a
new found confidence. I still hit behind the ball occasionally. I sometimes get too much hands into the shot. I just remember what 4 new magic moves says about keeping the wrists in that uncomfortable position all through the downswing and I magically hit the ball long and straight. The lateral shift really works. I have been telling my
friends about your website and the New Four Magic Moves.

Hey Andy,

Just wanted to give you a little progress report on how I’m doing with the New 4 Magic Moves. About six months ago I committed to sticking with the New 4 Magic Moves and not try other swings. Except for a short two week experiment with stack & tilt I’ve been very good about just using your methods and it’s showing. My 150 club used to be my 5 iron, it’s now my 8. If there is a little wind at my back I can even use my pitching wedge from 150 out. And I”m hitting my 5 wood 200+ yards.

My balance is better and as a result I’m a lot more consistent in my ball striking.More importantly everything goes straight or even with a little draw. Bottom line, I’m developing a repeatable swing that I can count on.

Now, my scoring still hasn’t been all that great because I invariably have a hole or two where I blow up but if I can get those out of my rounds I’m confident that’ll be able to consistently play in the 90′s and perhaps in the 80′s. That may not sound great to some folks but for a 62 year old man who took up golf 8 years ago it’s a big deal to me.

What I like most about the New 4 Magic moves is that I have check points. If I concentrate on the knuckles, moving my hip laterally, retaining the angle etc the swing takes care of itself. And when I struggle I can almost always figure out what the problem is by checking the various stages of the New 4 Magic Moves.

One thing you might find interesting is that after I get set up and ready to swing I go ahead and preset my wrist. I then check my knuckles, do a little rocking motion so the club swings up to the top without a lot of effort on my part. By doing it this way I control my tendency to over turn, it eliminates a rather awkward movement (the press, thumbpress and start of the swing). As a result I tend to make much better contact with the ball. With precise contact you don’t need to swing hard to hit the ball a long way.

Now I still have a lot of work to do to become a good golfer and you can help me and the others who use the New 4 Magic Moves. We’d like to see you come up with some tips for chips and pitches and on how to shape shots. Overall I am very happy I made the switch to the New 4 Magic Moves and I’m really glad I’ve stuck with it.

Dear Andy,

The little practice I have done with your instructions have been very helpful. I am 85 and have a few problems, no cartilage in my left knee does not let me put much weight there. However, I manage to hit the ball off the tee straight most of the time but not much distance. Could you give me a hint how to improve this? There is a water hazard on the course I play often and it just is in my range – a few more yards would help!

Regards

Hans

Andy, thanks for all the updates. I started your new 4 move program about 10 months ago. With the winter weather, I really didn’t get into it heavily until around March of this year. My handicap was around 9-10 then and now it is trending toward a 7.

I must admit, old habits are hard to break ( I’m 67), but when I get the “first move” going, I really shoot low scores. In the month of March, I shot a 70, bettering my best previous score by 3 shots. I still fall back into the “old way”, but I continually practice the first move, sometimes 30-40 swings per day. When I get the muscle memory down, I know my scores are going to stay down also.

I do not like to write these stories about products but this time I am going to. I watched the one video that was sent to me. It was the first one about cocking my wrist straight back, you know the one, any way I put just that one move in to my swing and I gotta say it has changed my life (golfing life that is). Just that one thing has straightend my ball flight, lengthened my shots and lowered my score. That was all i did to date. I was so impressed with this one move I purchased the course. I am studying it now and can’t wait to see what happens next.

Hello Andy

It has been quite a while since I subscribed to your recommended golf swing technique, and I must say you are absoulutely RIGHT!

I recently turned 70 years old and for all my golf life I played in the high 90′s or worse. Using your tecnique, I have dropped my score 10 strokes, and now happy to say my score card reads in the low 80′s. Last week I shot a personnel best of 82 with 9 pars. I thank you.

Indeed I still have trouble making a full turn and not hooking the ball to the right (I am a leftie), but the 4 new magic moves really work for me.
I am wondering a little, on the grip, it seems quite difficult to keep the thumb press constant at the top with my right wrist bent inward, (remember that I am a leftie), I would like to find someone here in Florida that subscribes to this swing method that might help me refine these details?

Thank you so much for showing me this method, it has helped me so much.

At 81 years of age & recovering from a stroke in Dec., 2009 I am just thankful to be out there playing, enjoying my friends & looking at the beautiful green grass from the correct side

Andy, good stuff. I think it will help reduce the number of 5 putt greens I have per round!

Hi Andy,

The New Four Magic Moves to winning golf have greatly enhanced my enjoyment of the game of golf. Up until now, some 9 weeks after receiving the e-book and audio lessons, my standard has improved tremendously.

However my playing handicap of 14 has not yet come down but neither has it gone up. I have stopped the “rot”.

I have not had sufficient practice time yet to do the magic moves justice.
I have also purchased your DVD Andy which explains all the flaws and the 4 magic moves brilliantly. I have also purchased the hard copy of the book and all of the audio cd’s. Yes I am really that determined to succeed with this method.

My main problem that I have experienced is the sweeping away of the habits of a lifetime. My wrist break and thumb press is not yet correct and I very often hook the ball to the left. However the magic move 3 i.e. the lateral movement of the hips followed by the hips rotating naturally to a full finish has made a really significant improvement to my ball striking in both, distance and accuracy. So magic move 3 alone is working well for me.

The magic move 4 “coam” is something I don’t have to think about because it just happens because of centrifugal force. I hope I have understood that chapter correct Andy, I keep my hands passive through impact.

The new 4 magic moves has given me so much pleasure and I am sure will continue to do so and I am convinced that when I am able to make more time available for practice my handicap will come down to single figures. When that happens I will let you know. Not a bad ambition for a 70year old to have !

Soon after receiving your new 4 magic moves I was also taken up with the promotional videos of the break par blueprint series produced by yourself and great friend JR. I was so impressed with this series that after reading John’s book “Dream On” I have subscribed to BPB also.

Both series are complimentary to each other and I would like to thank you both for providing us with genuine improvements that are well explained and will certainly add to the enjoyment of our game.

Please keep up the good work and thanks once again Andy for all your help.

Hi Andy,

I’ll be 55 comes August. Frankly I’ve not done with all the scripts yet, but that’s good enough for me to be able to join my younger colleagues who have been playing for more than ten years now in rounds of golfing. I am now already a member of Golf and Country Club and playing usually on weekends. Let me tell you what I have gone through so far:

1) The 100 strokes jinx is now over. It’s time and time again I have been repeating this. It’s just like I have emerged from the ‘troubled zone’ permanently now! To think of it over – it’s really a waste of time hovering in the zone for such a long time (I started about nine miserable years ago)!

2) My par threes are excellent now – I am always in control. I finally know how to use the iron correctly (for even the 170 m ) Par 3. (of course I managed to get a few birdies too)! and not using Wood 3 or 5 anymore for that distance. I use iron 4 or 5 for that. I know immediately if my ball goes to the left; that it is not enough wrist break.

3) I bought a TaylorMade driver and with the wrist break my distance incredibly goes very far now (for my own standard)! It’s more than 240m now (not always of course). But enough to scare my flight partners who give me stroke on betting rounds. I adjusted five to ten degrees to the left and my ball goes flying straight to the target with a wow! from my friends. The shoulder and hip turn accomplish the swinging job for me.

Yet to complete the book . Hope my feedback helps. (by the way during the Malaysia Open recently I got my cap autographed by KJ Choi!

I haven’t had a chance to spend a lot of time at the practice range and really try it out, I’ve worked with some of it on the course & have liked what I’ve seen & have recommended it to other golfers!

The new 4 magic moves have helped me in several ways. Most impostantly I have won a medal and been 2nd and third in 2 months since reading the advice. My handicap has come down from 19.3 to 17.2 and I am now hoping for further improvement.

Thanks Andy

Bob

Andy thanks for all the advise the last 8 months i got my handycap down from 18 to 16 with in three months. Im crushing my driver on average 280 to 300 yards but what letting me down are my irons i used to play callaway x12 but changed to pings i10 i. i got both sets custom fitted but found that the pings havent got the same feeling.do differant clubs suit differant people or is it just a confidence thing.
lately im topping my irons and rescue club whats the nack for staying down on the shot .{ please dont tell me i moved my head thats what my playing partners say Ha HA } thanks Ollie

Hi Andy,

We I can add that my short game has definitely improved due to that new grip technique. My problem is still with consistency but that can be improved with practice I’m sure.

I would like to give you a testimonial, but I’m not sure as to my progress is sufficient enough to warrant one; at times I feel as if I’m seeing some progress, but I have yet to see any consistancy; as soon as I can see my clear to give you a testimonial that is positive, you’ll be the first to know.

Sincerely, Jerry

Hello Andy,

4 Magic Moves of Golf is the BEST £15 I have ever spent on instruction in my life.

What impresses me most, Andy, is that for the first time in 40 years of playing I now have a swing that REPEATS itself every time—longer and straighter too—no more of that hitting a good ball every 4th or 5th shot then turning round and saying “What did I do RIGHT?”

I am 66 years old (retired 2 years now and playing with a great bunch of veterans on Tues at Silverknowes Golf Club in Edinburgh)

Handicap has crept up to 17 from 13 over the last 5 years or so but with the help of 4mmog I am sure I am on the cusp of getting it down to at least 15 or maybe lower.

Thanks again and you can rest assured I am spreading the word to one and all.

Yours in golf

Ian Suggitt

Andy…Much thanks for your “Golf Swing Secrets Revealed”! I am 74 yrs. old and have been playing golf for almost 60 years. Have tried many different methods of swinging a golf club…but all with mixed results. Setting the angle very early in the swing seems to be working quite well…I have modified your system slightly in that I do not set the left wrist in the convex position that you suggest…but rather a flat left wrist, and this seems to be working quite well. Years ago I maintained an 8 handicap…but age has taken it’s toll, and my handicap currently is 15. But now that I have your “Swing Secrets”…I hope to lower my handicap to 10 or better. It seems that at my age a persons interest in golf would be slowing down…but I can assure you, that I can’t wait to get to the practice tee before each round of golf.

Warmest Regards

John

Dear Andy,

Thanks for the advice. Just to keep you updated, I am doing fine with my 4 magic moves although I ”cheat” a little. I can do the first and second farily well (I know becos my ball has never been straighter and my friends notice that) but I have difficulty in the third move. When I get to the top its quite natural that the club will come down but I am not sure if I have been moving my weight to the left correctly or not.

Lastly about the 4th magic move I am still trying to perfect it altho I always try and hold the hinge as long as I can to avoid casting and changing the plane.

I would like to add that I played beautifully on Sat before the lightning warning stopped our play. I had 6 straight pars and one birdie then when the siren wnet of I rushed the last hole and still made bogey. On that day my longest drive was witnessed by my astonished friends. It reached the 250 meters mark (275 yards) !!!

Today, on Sunday I hit abother long drive on exactly the same hole and I found my ball at the 260 mark (286 yards) !!!

By the way I am 61 years old, Chinese SIngaporean and 167 Meters or 5 feet 5.5 inch tall (or short).

Thanks for everything.

Eric

Good Morning Andy,

Many thanks for the info you sent out, I am working hard with the 4
magic moves and over the last 8 weeks I have taken 3 strokes of my
handicap I only play once a week so I’m rapt with that, the 100 key
Pointers and in the zone has really been helpful, giving my game more
depth and me more confidence, with club tournaments coming up it will be a good gage on my improvement, thanks again,

Cheers,

Barry.O.
