I've watched dozens of videos on sequencing and this is the one that finally made it click for me. I just hit a bucket of balls and hit 100% of them in the sweet spot with tremendous speed. GREAT lesson guys. Thank you so much.
Love it!
YES! This is a very dynamic, and athletic way to play golf. This sequencing, and separation adds sooo much speed, with what feels like less effort. It’s the same concept that athletes use to punch harder, throw a ball further and faster, hit a forehand harder in tennis, or even do something as simple as skipping a rock better.
100%!
Really GREAT session Eric. Could watch this forever to ingrain the hip motion toward the target feel. I struggle to gain the right sense of when to move my weight forward and this really clarifies. THanks much-Russ
You got it Russ---thanks for being here with us!
Wow. This makes every single previous video on getting the takeaway correct and backswing sequence null and void. Pure gold, an absolute perfect way to put the club effortlessly on plane without any thought.
Hope it serves you well!
All things in the golf swing matter to the degree that they effect pieces later on. I hear your point.....backswing stuff CAN matter A LOT...if it negatively effects later pieces.
This one really good to focus on getting the right downswing motions and body (Lower body) leading the way
This is something i really struggle with. Just watched this before i went to the range this evening. Excellent drill, really helped me get the feeling for leading with the hips! Thank you
Love to hear that! Our pleasure!
Great video Eric, the way you and JT explained the sequencing. I cant wait to try it. This is definitely going to make me a more consistent ball striker.
Thanks Robert! Hope this one serves you well!
Sequencing is a great way to breakdown the swing. Moving the hips forward while still taking the club to the top has always driven me crazy. This seems like a great way to learn that!
Most pros dont actually do it
Hope this helps!
Well done Eric… allot of folks will benefit from this. Thank you.
Thanks Jerry!
thanks Eric. looks simplified!
You got it!
Fantastic video here Eric! I've been having issues with fat shots lately and I think this will really help cure that ill since it will help get the weight forward and lower half through the shot. Plus it will help with tempo. Kudos to you and JT!
Thank you! Hope it serves you well my friend!
This video literally just changed my ball contact. So flush, downloaded for anytime to remember when I’m struggling.
Hell yah love it!
Can you do/is there a video on properly loading the arms following this backswing @@CogornoGolf
The club parallel to the ground in the backswing is key for me. It has allowed me to accept that the feelings for the backswing and downswing overlap. Any movement towards the target involves feelings for the downswing.
Agreed Frank---well said
Great video😊
Thanks James!
Hi, this is a very good drill. Will try this later. Still, it term of timing, it is very clause to something I changed recently in my swing and that impacted both my release and weight transfert. Indeed I now start my backswing without arm (or almost), mostly chest then hips. And then when I start moving arm upward/loading my arm I start bending the left knee to load left leg and recenter. I am not considering my hip right now but for sure will try to integrate that in near futur. Thanks. Those are great lessons.
👊👊
Hope this one serves you well my friend! Thanks for being here with us!
Excellent reinforcement video. Thanks you Eric. Interestingly distance and control don’t have to be exclusive, a shorter loaded up swing is very powerful and accurate.
Thank you! Agreed!
Pure Gold.
Thank you!
Its almost my swing in a nutshell. I started watching rahm my full swing at the absolute most with irons never go over 3/4. I believe unless youre a really good athlete the rest of the swing gets people disconnect its runoff. And ive got decent power swinging like this driver 280-285 ish average carry down to pw 140ish 138 really to be precise. My full swing is like jt doing the drill. You really feel compression and i feel it takes so many elements out thats not needed and takes the fear out of really going after it for me.
Sliced alot and I felt like it was runoff. I watched something talking about the power in the swing is at the bottom and something for me just said then I don't need all that extra. I've went from 28+ to 2.8 in 3 years. So this is Def onto something here
Love it!
Eric, you have another video for a drill to help with swing speed that starts with the club waist high and then swing as fast or as hard as you can (similar to the Jon R video).
What differentiates this drill from the feel in the speed drill. TY.
Hey! Yes---good call....I would say that is virtually the same idea. By ramping up the speed from the short position you are FORCED to create the speed with your lower body...which is PART of "leading" with your hips. Hope that helps
Works well with shorter clubs, I would like to see the longer clubs and driver
Agreed Jim---would stick to practicing this with shorter stuff!
Again, great content! …. but how does this fit together with the sling shot session where only the first part of the backswing is the same???
Thanks!
I would say the sling shot video would be how to FEEL and LOAD the full backswing to get distance. So if your backswing is already too short and/or need distance that would be a good option to start.
For this its just to EXAGGERATE the FEEL of the lower half leading the downswing. The idea would then you would still make a full backswing THEN feel the same start down to get the best of both worlds
Great video as always Eric! Several questions:
1. Weight shifting start from beginning of backswing or complete the first part of backswing (no arm)?
2. Does it apply to driver as well?
3. Does it need a squat / hip lower move as well?
Thank you!
1. when doing the drill......start with weight 50/50....keep it 50/50 when you pose the club in the takeaway position.....then immediately as the arms go BACK you are feeling the weight go FORWARD toward target.
2. You CAN FEEL the same thing with driver....but dont do the drill with it....as the clubs get longer its important to make sure you make a full backswing turn.....FEEL vs REAL
3. That SHOULD happen AUTOMATICALLY when doing this....dont need to add it consciously
@@CogornoGolf thanks a lot!
If there ever was the AH HAH moment, this is it! I tried your rib cage/no arm drill and my hips had a better turn and I was finally flushing balls!
Love it!
Thanks for the great Tips over the hips my mother in law has improved her swing greatly 👍👍🫶
Love it :)
What helps me on the backswing is supinating the left hand(rotating to the left). This takes out the cup of the left wrist at setup. Although it seems significant to me, when I see it on video it’s almost imperceptible. You could do this on the downswing you have less time to accomplish it. Anyway this has helped me to avoid hitting the ball to the right.
Thanks Thomas! Love it---thats definitely a big part of squaring the face (lead arm rotation) regardless of when and where.
I was skeptical about this however after trying at the range, and seeing the extra distance, I am converted.
Glad this one helped!
Does this drill also show you where you should actually be at the "top" transition point of your swing? It seems like a very short compact motion...but maybe that's what I've been missing from my swing all these years!
Hey there!
It certainly gives you a great feel for improving the sequencing and shifting in the transition!
You may enjoy checking out this video as well:
th-cam.com/video/0Xkb5aQzr84/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
A lot of students will ask how do you transition these drills where you start the downswing sooner (around hip high) into a full, normal swing...
Do the same exact thing to hip high, but record it and see where you are actually at. A lot of the time when you FEEL hip high, you'll be more like 3/4 swing at chest/shoulder high. Your arms and hands are going to keep going up just out of pure momentum...so there's not a lot of transition between the drill in either of these videos and a full, normal swing.
Hope this helps!
Yes sir!
Eric, what abput pressure in lag leg? Is it mx at arms parallel?
max about 1/2 down downswing is the FEELING
@CogornoGolf thanks Eric. Do you ever do clincis in Vegas?
Amateur question here, but does the same shift in weight distribution happen throughout the drill when swinging driver as well?
You CAN FEEL the same thing with driver....but dont do the drill with it....as the clubs get longer its important to make sure you make a full backswing turn.....FEEL vs REAL
@CogornoGolf Can you do this will all clubs? even driver?
I wouldn't....I would stick with shorter club when doing the drills.....
Great
Thank you!
Eric, I've been able to do this for years when pausing at hip height. I still can't make it happen on a full swing though. Seems like I just don't get the club and sequence exactly as good as when pausing... i've damn near considered just starting from hip height at times... I literally hit it further from this position.
Start short and slow and build your way up...use video feedback👍
If you don't get it sorted, send us your swings at www.cogornogolf.com so we can do a full analysis and build you a practice plan!
Thank you Eric. Will do
Let me explain this for everyone, hit every iron like your doing a 15 yard chip. Works like magic
Lol I like that.....15 yard chip shot backswing with a full finish at full speed :)
So, by the time the club is parallel to the ground, that's as far as the hips have to turn, right?
Hey Barry! In a real swing you would look for a bit more hip rotation from takeaway to top of swing......but for the sake of the drill swing yes thats enough
Is that the same for driver?
I would do the drill with a short iron.....you CAN use similar FEELS for all clubs.....but as the clubs get longer you likely want to make sure in your REAL SWING that you make a FULL BACKSWING
Remember this is just an exaggerated FEEL to sense the lower body action to start the downswing
Does this also apply to Driver?
I would stick to irons for this drill!
As one of the best current 80 yr old golfers on the planet the video is ok
:)
Can this work for the driver?
You CAN FEEL the same thing with driver....but dont do the drill with it....as the clubs get longer its important to make sure you make a full backswing turn.....FEEL vs REAL
Appreciate the reply as always.
I struggle with getting the left hip open without swaying!
Hey Dianne! Would need to see your swing to say for sure why thats happening to say how to fix ...send swings in to www.cogornogolf.com we can solve that
Eric..how come you dont go deepinto putting?
Hey there! If you search my name and "putting" here on TH-cam, you'll find a bunch of good ones!
Pete Cowan's explanation of "left ankle to right calf, right calf to left hip, left hip to right ab, right ab to left shoulder...etc etc" is a little insane. This way of having like 2 or 3 things to do is much easier to implement.
:)
Yeah.. Pete sounds good.. UNTIL you work on it.. It's just NOT that simple. I could start from my left pinky toenail up to my hair.. Get it right.. And STILL "struddle".
I never understand half the stuff that blokes says 😂
exactly. maybe great for tour pros but he's useless to me. @@_s_p_a_r_k_e_s_7615
Pete loves the sound of his own voice. Amazed he is so successful.
Isn't the step drill an easier way to do this?
Both can work!
I like step drill and did that with student here: th-cam.com/video/bVZhtb0Wwa8/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUSRXJpYyBDb2dvcm5vIHNwZWVk
I couldn’t play golf effectively until I learned that if I move my arms first, my body will automatically move to the position I need to strike the ball.
👊
Appreciate you being here with us!
Gary Player in a recent video stated that the key to the takeaway was connection of very upper arm to the torso
Yeah thats a big part Dave! We have talked lots about that in previous takeaway videos....100% agree with that
when the arm disconnects the shoulder internally rotates too much and the forearm pronates too much.....club will ALWAYS be off plane from there and USUALLY clubface issues as well
you CAN make up for it later....but more difficult way to do it
Eric is using big words like "Applicable", He's grown up so much.
Lol
1000 mg of salt in one drink.?
Hey Carlos! I hear ya.....you can go here to see more of the research and details:

Lol same video as Danny Maude yesterday, really dude?
Don’t watch then 🔔🔚
Sooooo, you're saying only one person in the entire world should be allowed to teach a topic???
For those who don't know 'Danny Maude'..... I'm sure Eric's video is good instruction.
Danny's video yesterday was about compression and putting pressure on the ball with your right hand and adding distance
Haha wow yeah good call! I hadn't seen that but just saw that's too funny.....same thumbnail idea :) Great minds, right?!
Couple of thoughts:
1. Had no idea Danny planned to post that video with similar thumbnail
2. This thumbnail I first saw from JChown golf 11 months ago here: th-cam.com/video/KRRg3V-Rrp4/w-d-xo.html
3. We first modeled this thumbnail which I gave credit to Jchown for the idea 3 months ago here: th-cam.com/video/xvm0u9XRMO8/w-d-xo.html
4. Based on what I can see this is the first time Danny is posting this....and smart on him....because its a good thumbnail :) Where do you think he got it from ? :)
5. All of us in the golf industry share ideas and model titles and thumbnails that work (other industries do this as well)
6. The goal with the TH-cam game is to get as many people to watch....so the titles and thumbnails are so important....so when you find some that work a lot of us will use it. Of course the key is that once the video starts the CONTENT is not the same.
We spend a lot of time, energy and money to put these videos out for FREE to help you all. Would be ashamed to do all that and have no one watch ya know...
Anyway....I hear ya---totally see where you're coming from. Hopefully this clear it up.....and beware you WILL see this again on mine or other channels :)
All the best.
I watched Danny's video to and yours and thank you both so much for giving us your time and expertise the more the better keep it up 👍👍👍
I feel like if you actually load your hips then you'll lead with your hips
For sure part of it John! Action-reaction
Your height has a lot to do with it I would think. Not everyone is over 6’….
Perhaps!
Everyone does an over-the-top move when they try to demo it in slow motion though. Not good.
Thanks for watching :)
This video is the perfect example of why not to watch youtube golf videos.
:)
@@CogornoGolf only joking.. i normally get a lot from your videos... this one confused the hell out of me xx
Lol I hear ya---all good!
This is, indeed, not for the casual golfer. But if you want to look like Rory at the top of your backswing, this is the roadmap.
I just unsubscribed. I get enough commercials from TH-cam without this guy injecting his own.
Hey Jharris---totally understand! Appreciate the support up till now---hope you continue enjoying your golf!
I’ve tried this in the past and my arms and club head gets stuck inside unless I add a heap of wrist cock to try and keep the club onplane. If I suck the club inside early, I end up lifting my arms and then OTT? Ideas?
Hmm....I think I would need to see your swing to give you good advice here. Could me multiple reasons for that....so key to find what's causing it to give you an exact way to fix without guessing. Send swings in to www.cogornogolf.com and we can fix!
I need a one on one I think 🥲
I’m getting WILDLY from the outside when doing this
Try these stations with it to fix that:
