Statistics show that the average score hasn't improved in decades. Instruction is not helping them. Conventional golf is too complex, with too much rotating motion. The Moe Norman Single Plane Swing eliminates much of the rotation in the conventional golf swing. The Moe Norman Single Plane Swing allows the club to move down the target line longer than the conventional swing, thus creating solid, straight shots. The ease of the Moe Norman Single Plane Swing translates into a swing that can be repeated with less effort, unlike the constant practice a conventional swing needs. Single Plane golfers come to expect better ball striking, which leads to improved accuracy and distance.

The Graves Golf Academy teaches Moe Norman's golf swing as it was taught to Todd Graves by Moe Norman himself over the last 10 years of Moe's life. The Graves Golf Academy believes Moe Norman's swing is the ideal model for all golfers to follow, and teaches each and every student towards the model of Moe Norman. Starting in 2000, Todd and Tim Graves formed the Graves Golf Academy with one primary purpose; to help golfers reach their true golf potential teaching Moe Norman's ideal single-axis golf swing.

Moe Norman Single Plane golf is probably the quickest way to lower the score for the high handicapper. Golf is a game of accuracy, and the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. What if you could hit it straight almost every single time you addressed the ball? If you could forget about your swing, you could concentrate on course management, on club selection and on fine-tuning your power control to get exactly the distance you need. Our best testimonials come from high-handicappers, because they know how hard conventional golf can be, and they love what the Moe Norman Single Plane swing does for the game.

The low-handicap golfer has mastered the precise timing that is required in conventional golf. Yet most good golfers find that slice or hook creeping into their game, or the bad shot keeping them from par. We have found that good golfers will improve their scores because they will be able to spend less time on the driving range working on timing of the swing and will spend more time on their short game where 60% of scoring actually occurs.

Moe Norman Single Plane Golf is a great way to play and enjoy a respectable round of golf if you don't have time to go to the driving range all the time or play golf occasionally. The Moe Norman Single Plane Swing is low maintenance. There is less to go wrong with the golf swing because there are fewer moving parts. You may not win the club championship without the time spent on the short game, but people who are busy with business, family or travel can enjoy a fun and rewarding round of golf without all the constant work.

The Moe Norman Single Plane swing requires less body twisting. The Single Plane System puts less stress on your body. Single Plane Golfers call and write us every day about how they can play more and with less discomfort. Single Plane Golf won't cure your bad back, but many golfers who have been forced to give up the game find that the Single Plane System gives them a second chance to play the game they love. Proving this theory everday was Moe Norman himself, who, before his untimely death in September of 2004, still hits hundreds of balls everyday at the age of 74.

Moe played with all sorts of conventional clubs, but he altered them dramatically. He tore off all the conventional golf grips and replaced them with heavy, thicker grips. He adjusted the lie angle to fit him and added more weight to the clubhead - usually with lead tape. The main thing about Moe Norman's club to know is that they fit him and his personal preference for weight, grip size, lie angle, and shaft flex.

Each day includes personal golf swing instruction by Todd Graves and his staff, including individual video analysis, swing instruction detailing the grip, stance, backswing and full swing, and a ball striking clinic by Todd Graves himself. Also included is short game instruction including putting, chipping, wedge game, and sand shots. Also included will be stories and videos during the provided lunch of personal experiences of time spent with Moe by Todd Graves.

The Graves Golf Academy schools have a 4 to 1 ratio of students to instructors. There will be at least 1 instructor including Todd for every 4 students at the school. Many times, there is a lower ratio.
