I’m a new golfer of 2 years and taking lessons at TopGolf since they are 2 min from me. Watching Eric’s lesson made me realize you can’t take lessons just anywhere. Although the TopGolf people teach the same swing technique, it’s useless if it’s not taught by an instructor who can clearly tell you what’s wrong, what you are doing to make it wrong, and then tell you what’s correct, what to do to get your mind to feel that correction. Eric is more informative and has the solutions. #1 Instructor for sure!
@@CogornoGolf I am recovering from Covid and have all this time to watch your videos. I feel I should at full strength mid next week. I will send a video then and check out your website in the mean time. Chris
Congrats Eric. Great job of communicating during a lesson. Can't wait to see you work on the dswing! Great realization that things that happen much earlier in the swing are not going to let you get to the end result of hitting good shots and that you have to go back and tackle the early stuff, see what happens after that gets corrected and then work from there.
Great video, Eric. When I started to train these wrist positions, my wrists actually became sore. However, the benefits are unbelievable. Compressed iron contact, lower flight, and more distance, with less effort, using a shorter backswing. You’ll also hit it straighter, because the face stays much more stable through impact, and beyond. Keep in mind…. You’ll need more rotation than what you’re used to, because you won’t be stalling the body to flip the club face, and you’re gonna need to feel more right side bend also, because shaft lean actually makes the club shorter. It takes practice, but it’s well worth the effort.
I was doing this my entire golf journey and couldn't understand why I was slicing the ball and other stuff. Until I watched you starting your videos a few years ago I've never looked back they don't really teach this .if I'd none this I may have been a better player especially when I was keen to play and practice 25 years ago am now 56 . Your videos are fantastic keep up the great work you are doing cheers from the UK.👍👍👍
Eric another great video! I love watching people make swing changes with good sound instruction. I have been working on changing my swing for the last two years. I have done many of the same things you recommended so I know they work. If I wasn’t working with someone here in Massachusetts I’d be doing on-line lessons with you or coming to Pennsylvania to see you. I have referred you to a few of my friends, keep up the great work!
Eric..i've been suffering for years on this inconsistency, slice, top, fat shot, distance, shank etc...after many years i discovered that the main culprit of this is the takeaway...now i've understood how the correct takeaway feels and automatically the above problems gone and my swing fixed by itself...
Exactly what I’m working on. Still tough not to flip at bottom. I really have to feel my wrist bowed on the downswing along with pushing my hips forward. The hip motion helps reduce the flip
Look at the right shoulder at impact on your client and the man in the video and yes we must feel like we are bowing at the top I was keeping my right shoulder back and flipping , I went out hit plastic golf balls bowing at the top and bringing my right shoulder closer to the ball at impact an amazing difference with way better dynamic loft and farther going out tomorrow on the course can’t wait to include this in my swing , great video from one Italian to another ….
Hey Man. All of your Videos Are Fantastic. Very Grateful. Are you located in Myrtle Beach by chance? We own a condo there and ill be looking for some lessons sometime in the future. Thanks.
Thank you, Tony! My in-person lesson schedule is completely booked in Boca Raton, FL for the rest of October, but please email service@cogornogolf.com with the subject "lessons" and we'll add you to the email list/notify you of any new openings in the coming months!
Here’s something weird … I was playing last night and trying to do this same thing with my left wrist and it worked well. I sign in today, and I see this video has dropped. I have to tell you though, it feels very strange. I need to work more on this it the range. I did it with irons only, not confident enough to try it with fairway woods, hybrids, or driver yet. Great content as always!
Damn man thee are really shocking videos lol. To see someone, an average Joe, feeling awkward, but making such staggering improvements in their positions in a single lesson is great. I know they’re not suddenly a tour player, and now have to work on other aspects, but the wrist change he made is impressive.
Can you do this same wrist set (left hand bowed) on wedge shots? Or would that lower the loft too much/create unecessary wrist movements on a wedge shot
You can do with wedge for full swings and longer shots.....yes.........wouldnt do as much around the greens bc you want more loft/bounce ..works best with neutral to weaker grip...details on matching grip an wrist: th-cam.com/video/S776LyvM6Pc/w-d-xo.html
@@CogornoGolf Thanks! I use a strong grip and have always cupped, so I have been trying to weaken my grip but keep losing it right. The overbow left wrist concept has helped a lot.
we look identical at impact it's crazy. I'm now checking all my past videos for wrist bow and lack thereof, also i'm checking for more wrist cock by p3 and guess what.. i lack wrist hinge at p3. I could definitely use more.
Dear god , please tell me there is a follow up to this video ! I have been fighting this exact problem my entire playing life . I am 68 years old , and at my best my handicap has been as low as 2 , but I am now at a 6 . My ball flight is to high, and my distances are to short .
Hey Tim....if your face is already shut you would not do this....the opposite in fact Have to match your grip to wrist angles: th-cam.com/video/S776LyvM6Pc/w-d-xo.html

Appreciate it Aaron! Glad to hear you are heading in the right direction :)
Awesome,great,terrific and all good. Losing the rolling forearms has been the key to my greatest improvement to date.
Appreciate it Rick!
That little rehearsal at 16:07 looked a bit like Jordan Speith's practice move -- not a bad swing to emulate. Awesome transformation Eric!
Haha for sure! Appreciate it!
This format is AWESOME! keep it coming. Very helpful.
👊Thanks Steve!
My dynamic loft issue is my only issue that my wife hasn't accused me of having. I need to work on that though.
One day at a time :)

Appreciate your support very much Kenny! Thank you!!
This is great.. WOuld really love to see the next progression, keeping the angles through impact.
Me too! Would be cool to do like a series on this to see the evolution of someones swing....
@@CogornoGolf it would be amazing!
Eric please post part 2! We all could benefit from how we deliver our wrist angles into the ball.
Agreed Ricky! Starting to think we should do a "series" with someone to show the evolution
@@CogornoGolf Ii vote yes!
I really like watching live lessons
Appreciate it, Wade! We will keep bringing them your way every Tuesday :)

for sure! ITs a process

Loved this lesson!!
Happy to hear it, Frank! Thanks for watching!
Awesome job Mr Eric once again!
Thank you very much!
This lesson reminds me of a drill for hitting a high draw.
I would love to see the next step in his lesson, incorporating his lower body with the new wrist positions.
ME too :)
great video, really helps with reality of the hands. Jim Oahu
Thanks a lot, Jim!

I have the same exact issue! Missed shots are curving left . My left wrist is more flat during the backswing tho

I have to tell you though, it feels very strange. I need to work more on this it the range. I did it with irons only, not confident enough to try it with fairway woods, hybrids, or driver yet. Great content as always!
Which wrist should be controlling the wrist rolling movement he’s working on?
Could be either
Interesting and insightful video!
Thanks, Drew!
Amazing. This is my exact issue when I’m hitting it bad.
Hope it helps Jared!
Do you also keep these wrist angles with driver at impact?
I was wondering the same thing.
Me too,!
yupe..it applies to all clubs
Yep.....if the face is open and you flip too much with driver the same fix would apply (all clubs)
Damn man thee are really shocking videos lol. To see someone, an average Joe, feeling awkward, but making such staggering improvements in their positions in a single lesson is great. I know they’re not suddenly a tour player, and now have to work on other aspects, but the wrist change he made is impressive.
Yessir! Doing the exaggeration enough is big key early on!
Can you do this same wrist set (left hand bowed) on wedge shots? Or would that lower the loft too much/create unecessary wrist movements on a wedge shot
Also, this needs to be with a neutral or weak grip right? A strong left hand grip and bowed would close the face too much ? Thanks !
You can do with wedge for full swings and longer shots.....yes.........wouldnt do as much around the greens bc you want more loft/bounce

Question: why do people have different “follow throughs”
Could u go through different FT and why they might be more advantageous.
Hey Drew
Check this one you may like I go through follow through in more detail
th-cam.com/video/q43rhyr6-vE/w-d-xo.html
we look identical at impact it's crazy. I'm now checking all my past videos for wrist bow and lack thereof, also i'm checking for more wrist cock by p3 and guess what.. i lack wrist hinge at p3. I could definitely use more.
:)
Important to make sure the club face is closed enough earlier.....THEN you can go in and fix that impact
Great coaching! When can I set my appointment? 😉
Send us an email to service@cogornogolf.com if you want to be featured in one of these videos :)
Eric, I struggle with cupping my wrist at the top is their any strength exercises that help maintain this angle through the swing?
Perhaps....it does depend some on GRIP.
To train it I have found the hanger to be best: th-cam.com/video/OyxgamZllOM/w-d-xo.html
Dear god , please tell me there is a follow up to this video ! I have been fighting this exact problem my entire playing life . I am 68 years old , and at my best my handicap has been as low as 2 , but I am now at a 6 . My ball flight is to high, and my distances are to short .
Lesson 2 would be fun to see for sure :)
@@CogornoGolf did you ever make a lesson #2 for this??
How to do this without it turning into a hook. I have a rather shut face on the backswing.
Hey Tim....if your face is already shut you would not do this....the opposite in fact
Have to match your grip to wrist angles:
