Cogorno is the man. I've been using his videos for the past couple years or so, and, despite playing fewer rounds per year, my ball striking, accuracy, and general play have been improving. Can't recommend him enough.
This is one of your best videos. I have been doing exactly the same faults as your pupil . I have tried your corrections and they work. Instead of sweeping I am now getting the divot I always wanted with such easy. Thank so much and keep them coming.
Thank you for this video. It’s very timely for me. I’m in the process of revamping my swing. Which was totally incorrect. I want to knock 25 strokes off my game. Now I’m shootings 110+ for 18. My goal is to be consistently in the 80’s.
I’d say watch particularly “Building a Swing to Break 80” on Cogorno’s channel, and do that until you’re a good ball-striker. I did that drill all the way from 100+ to now high 70s-low 80s.
Hey Jim. Just wanted to say, go for it. It is possible to improve that much. I started learning about the golf swing from watching youtube videos and got hooked. I went from shooting a 132 at Renditions 2 years ago to shooting an 87 in my first 18 hole round the next year. That was 11 strokes better than my previous best at an easier course. Strictly watching tons of swing videos to learn about the swing, which it turned out I was clueless about after 25 years of golf, hitting whiffle balls in my backyard, and about 5 tune up rounds on a 9 hole executive course. I’d recommend Eric here, AMG Golf, top speed golf, Mark Crossfield, and zen golf mechanic. They are the cream of the crop IMHO. Good luck!
Practicing small parts of the swing is a really great idea. Master the small pieces before moving to the full motion. Crawl, walk, run. Most people want to run straight away and they build bad habits. So much great advice in this video.
You had a video on this almost a year ago, one of my favorites. When I begin to struggle, I go back to that. Great to see those concepts put into action here.
I was James. I set up the same way. Bent over, butt back, reaching out. I’m 6’1”, so tall-ish. I’ll share what made it easy for me to set up right, to go along with Eric’s thoughts. I was originally told to setup like I was sitting down on a bar stool. That’s how you get the but back so far. The thought that made it easy to do it right was to bend over like you’re looking over a fence. Instead. This gets the weight a little more forward and less hip hinge. Combine that with rotating your right but cheek backwards and then your left but cheek or hip backwards and you gain so much space. Before that I felt so crowded. After, I like to say it was like going from a twin bed to a king size bed. So much less crowded! Much better contact came immediately. Thanks Eric. More high handicappers, please. Love this video.
I was a military instructor pilot for a decade. Eric, you are just as good as the best of my peers. These videos are simply outstanding. Still not doing lessons in PA?
Wow appreciate that Chris! Very kind Doing some lessons but everything booked up through July. Will announce if and when we open any additional spots in August/Sept. Are you in Northeast?
Hi Eric, just back from range on a cold and wet Tuesday! This is a great drill which has helped my extension. At the moment the ball is going left so I need to straighten that out. Will do this drill at the start of all my range sessions. Thanks
I typically “hit” the ball versus swing thru the ball. Adding the finishing goals of arms out, and standing on right toe, feels much more athletic and powerful (as I hit balls with my irons and hybrids in my garage). Will work on this outdoors tomorrow! Many thanks for your always spot-on swing checkpoints!
Eric, this is my favorite video of yours! I like seeing a higher handicap player like me. It’s amazing how a couple adjustments transformed this guy’s swing. I bet he shaves 8-10 strokes off his score.
This is exactly what I'm trying to get a grasp of. Not getting the natural feel for getting the right foot to turn and get up on the toes. Should the momentum of the swing get my right foot to follow?
Hey there! It would help to be able to see your swing in order to give the best advice...send us your swings at CogornoGolf.com so we can help! The forward slide AND rotation of the pelvis (hips) towards the target would both play key roles in the trail foot working properly through the ball and into the finish👍 You may enjoy this one: th-cam.com/video/0vJn7x-wvp4/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
Putting too much power through his right hand. Give him feels for the left hand leading through and the right hand is quiet. Swing through it, not hit at it.
@@CogornoGolf keep that right hand cocked back will help get that right shoulder through. It really helps flippers, like me lol. Helped my tennis forehand as well.
Eric, sharing your skill, knowledge and training of this sport is so helpful to your viewers. Thank you for our lesson and all you have to offer.
Appreciate your support!
Could not agree more! Watched the no backswing drill video by chance the other day, was a game changer for me... So thanks to Eric!!!

These mini-lesson videos are some of your best Eric. Some of your throw away comments are so insightful. Many thanks.

@@CogornoGolf yes, Summit, NJ. I little over an hour east of you on I-78.
I learned so much by watching this. This is exactly my topic right now. Thanks for sharing and having a free lesson. Greetings from Germany.

Eric you have such an amazing natural way of coaching. Love the videos… thank you !!
Thank you!
Great great video. I watched many but this is so easy to understand. Thank you
Thanks Robert! Our pleasure!
..thanks very much Eric. The thud concept might seem insignificant but for me it’s a big one, thanks you
Glad to hear this one was helpful my friend!
Eric, I can't begin to tell you how valuable this video is for my swing. Totally applicable and i can't wait to implement this in my training.
Appreciate that Alex! Thanks for the support---hope it serves you well!
Love it. Definitely going to get some range time with this. Thank you!
Thanks Nate---hope this serves you well!
Eric that was probably the most awesome lesson ever! Thank you so much.
Appreciate that Joseph!
Great video. The take away is so important, maybe the most important part of the golf swing.
👊
Thank you!
@@CogornoGolfthank you but actually my comment was not for this video but another one of yours about the take away lol
That is astonishing. That quick change in the post-impact posture is amazing. See your coach, folks!
:) Appreciate you watching, AJ!
Great lesson 👏🏻👏🏻

What a great coach! 👍 i wish you were in Australia.
Appreciate that :)
Great lesson. The 90 90 punch drill is a great way to improve contact and weight shift
👊👊
Appreciate you watching, Steve!
Can you use the L to L drill with your fairway and hybrids as well?
lawn or deck chair is perfect for that feel.
Yes!
