Stuart Appleby's golf swing is a model of simplicity and effortless power that is driven by the body. Appleby has numerous one plane swing traits that make his swing a sound model for any golfer and I discuss those in depth in this 15 minute video analysis of his swing. This first video is an analysis of his swing from a down the line view that shows Stuart's solid one plane position at the top of his swing as well as his incredibly square clubface throughout the swing. If you are looking for a swing that removes as many extra moving parts as possible, it's tough to beat that of Stuart Appleby, three time winner of the Mercedes Championships at Kapalua.

I also touch on Stuart Appleby's two plane swing traits, as there are many. In fact, most of his golf swing is based around two plane swing ideas apart from his top of swing position, but there are a lot of things that can be learned by watching Stuart's swing in motion about building a body driven rotary golf swing.
