Fundamentals of the Golf Swing with Johnny Miller

Johnny Miller (born April 29, 1947) is a former professional golfer on the PGA Tour. He was one of the top players in the world during the mid-1970s, ranked second in the world in both 1974 and 1975 behind Jack Nicklaus. Johnny is currently the lead golf analyst for NBC Sports, a position he has held since January 1990.

Miller was born and raised in San Francisco. In 1961, he became the first "merit member" at the Olympic Club, the club's term for talented juniors given access to its facilities; and became the top player on its junior team. He won the San Francisco city junior title in 1963 at age 16, and the following year won the 1964 U.S. Junior Amateur. He enrolled at Brigham Young University in 1965.

At the end of his freshman year, Miller qualified for the 1966 U.S. Open at the Olympic Club. His intimate knowledge of his home course helped him to finish in a tie for eighth place, the low amateur by three strokes, and earned him an invitation to the 1967 Masters.[1]

Miller was an All-American at BYU and graduated in 1969 with a degree in physical education.

Although he became eligible for the Champions Tour in 1997, he decided not to play the senior tour on a regular basis. Instead he has focused on his broadcasting career and other business ventures. As a commentator he became known for his straightforward and sometimes blunt remarks, which sometimes earned him the enmity of players.

Miller wrote the well-received book I Call The Shots, an engaging look at the PGA Tour's personalities during his peak years, the Tour's current stars, as well as broadcasting insights.

A side-light to his broadcasting career has been a string of movie and TV appearances as himself in the role of "beloved golf great". In one movie, The Associate, with Whoopi Goldberg, an aging billionaire is willing to transfer management of all his assets in exchange for the opportunity to play a round of golf with Johnny Miller.[18]

Miller is part of a limited partnership which purchased Silverado Country Club in Napa, California on July 1, 2010. He also owns a golf design company and a golf academy and designed the Thanksgiving Point Golf Course in Lehi, Utah, host of the Champion's Challenge. He is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Miller and his wife Linda have six children and live in Napa, California and Utah.

The next time you play golf, pay attention to how the people you are playing with swing. If you watch you will be quite amused at the gyrations they go through to hit a golf ball. These gyrations are exactly why most golfers are very inconsistent, even if they practice a lot.

You have heard that what you really need is a smooth, repeatable golf swing. A wild golf swing with too many moving parts is hardly repeatable. But, we all do it because we are trying to hit the ball (hard) a long distance.

The best course I have found for developing a simple, smooth, repeatable golf swing is entitled The Simple Golf Swing.

This book and video training will seem strange at first but I assure you, if you practice what is in this course your friends will be amazed and your scores will be much improved. Only $47 for the entire course and it comes with a 60 day money back guarantee. If this course doesn't drastically improve your scores you get your money back.
