At the risk of sounding over the top, this really was the missing link for me. I have taken instruction for many years, and this concept was somehow missing. After doing this for only a few days, my swing feels much more natural, and my shots are so much more solid. And as you like to say Eric, I feel like I am getting a lot of "stuff for free". I am not consciously thinking about wrist set, how to start down, or other isolated pieces of the swing; it just feels like it is happening on its own. Hope that makes sense, and thanks so much to you and Jess for sharing this!
So glad to hear this, Tom! Appreciate you being here with us!
Eric: This is one of your best. Love it when you get together with Jess and/or Saguto. Thank you sincerely for getting into the finer points and especially about hitting behind the ball. I work hard on what you teach. Thanks a million!!
Appreciate it bill! Both great guys!
@@CogornoGolf But you are the greatest and still leading the way in helping amateurs like me constantly trying to learn how to improve and you have helped me . I'm 80 this year and playing from the forward tees, but I have shot in the 70's(life long dream) several times this year. Striving to do it consistently and you have helped me reach my goals!!
The neck tilt is so huge in this swing to be successful. Loved this video.
:)
I switched to S&T last year and immediately found great ball striking and distance gained. As a golfer with lower back issues, S&T transfers the stress of the golf swing to the legs instead of the back. If you have back issues, check out this style of swing. Great job Eric and Jess.
Thanks, Mike!
I went out and walked nine yesterday trying the stack and tilt method. I striped the ball further and straighter than ever before. I have to now adjust my iron length, I was hitting my irons at least fifteen yards further. Still need work on my short game but I believe this is going to be the year I break into the seventies consistency. Thanks Eric this is why I say you’re the best teacher out there. Snow today I’ll have to sit out a while to confirm yesterday’s nine. Stay save my friend.
:) Thanks, John! Glad to hear that!
Hands down, you are one of the best golf instructors that I’ve seen! Thank you for the great video.
Appreciate it my friend!
So great to see Eric working with Jess. I played Stack & Tilt most of last following Jess’ & Tom Saguto’s videos. So consistent. These few videos with this team (Eric & Jess) are awesome.
Appreciate it, Bill!
Great video. It ties in the head, ear, neck, eye, shoulder, hip, and knee together at the same time. The interconnectivity is super important. So many times I try to make a singular isolated adjustment only to find it doesn't work. The reason being one thing can significantly impact other parts of the swing and throw everything off without it being realized. You hit it out of the park!! Thanks
Appreciate it Ken! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful simple explanation of the BODY actions in the backswing so often overlooked when describing the backswing on plane positioning
Thanks, George!
Having something of a "hybrid" swing because of sciatica, this is music to my ears. Neck tilt...I've even seen it taught that its OK to look at the space behind the ball at the top. You'll reconnect on the way down. Takes a bit of getting used to though. Awesome video Eric and Jess!
Thanks, Martin!
Just got back from the range and wow! Can’t believe a simple movement like tilting my head on the follow through just transformed my swing. Thank you guys!
Love to hear that!
Great video! One of my biggest issues is not tilting enough in my backswing. Very underrated move that needs to be done!
👊
Thank you!
found this channel bout 2 days ago. learned so much from this channel compared to any other popular ones on YT
Thanks for being with us, Nick!
This video is excellent! The timing of you making this video was perfect as my dad and I just noticed he wasn’t tilting enough on the through swing.
:)
Another great video...I have issues spinning my hips instead of rotating them on the downswing when I actively think about it. Even the tip about pushing off the back leg didn't help so much as this neck tilt tip and your recent video about starting downswing/upper body. I was so consistent striking it at the range AND getting more distance...got a lot of my usual summertime carry distances in 45 degrees with dead range balls...Neck tilt forces me to keep my hands back, shallow the club on a better plane and just have better rhythm. To top it off, it makes my follow-through pose so damn pretty...ears down on the pillow, like a G...
Excellent!
Great explanation of tilting! Exactly what I needed to feel for better ball first contact and consistency! Thank you both!!
Thanks, Douglas!
One of the best illustrations I’ve seen to to explain backswing and follow through Well done.
Glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks so much for watching!
So gracious. Thank you. This video combined with the How to start the downswing lower body with Milo really puts it all together. I still see the reflex happening in this video but more subtly. The head in the circle keeps you from over doing the reflex IMO. Both key pieces though as the Milo video mentioned the importance of the tilt as well. Awesome Awesome info.
Thank you! Appreciate you being here with us!
For the better player especially 150% true.
Alignment (set up) and this.
Thanks
For sure Nelson!
Just wow, great stuff. I have played that course, really liked it :). The one thing I took away from this is, I could repeat that if I can learn it. Super simple swing thoughts = stress free golf.
Thank you Tommy!👊
Great instructions!!! I’ve tried the stack & tilt before but felt like I was missing pieces and thought too hard on each move so I gave up. Your explanation was concise & simple.
I hit a consistent straight and high ball but not getting the distance I expect due ball impact(too much fat), then I swing too hard to get distance which is not great on my back or my ego. This is really my missing link to get that consistent ball strike, at least improve the odds in my favor.
Keep up the great content!
Appreciate it, Brent!
A lot of videos on TH-cam for tilt in golf swing, this one is easy to understand. I tried it yesterday on the course. Make my left shoulder and knee points at the ground, I was able to hit better :)
Love it!
Here is a more detailed description of the tilt and the WHYS if you are of interest: th-cam.com/video/5PyZRor9RGA/w-d-xo.html
One of your best videos- kudos to you both
Thanks, Harold!
Great, I'm practicing your great tips all the time. Side bend and tilt is so important. I would love to hear more about timing... greets from Germany !
Thanks, Stefanie!
Sorry about some of the audio issues lately.....thats my fault. We are working on it to improve moving forward! Thank you for your patience :)
U dont miss a thing!!! It was a little annoying... but being that it was u I hung in there... anyone else and i would of left...
I
It takes a perfectionist to spot a perfectionist. LOL. As the years go by, you will let it go. This production was fine!!!
I can't add anything more to what's already been said below. The body, head, neck, shoulder, spine position at just before and just after striking the ball has baffled me until today. Cheers friend.
:)
Nice to see two of my favorite golf instructors working together.
:) Jess is awesome!
I just improved the flattening of the downswing. Now a bit more tilt plus more bodyturn to get the hands in front is what I am working on currently. This video helps a lot, thanks.
Love it!
@@CogornoGolf Really profiting from your videos! Best wishes from Switzerland :-) Peter
Awesome video. Will be working hard on this over the next couple of days.
Hope it helps, Chris!
I did it and hit 60% gir yoday..my drives were great too and my 4 rescue...my swing felt effortless by being on plane! I hit 3 out of 4 of my par 3 greens in reg..felt really great...great video Eric and Jeff,...back swing actually was taught wrong for years...back swing is inotiated by dipping left shoulder to ball which pushes left arm club awayfrom the ball on plane! Thisfeeling is unbelievable...
Love to hear that, Sambhu!!
Simple explanation, simple instructions and excellent advice. Thanks so much 🏴☘️🇨🇮👍
Appreciate it!
Excellent tip, been working on tilt this makes it much easier.
Thanks, Floyd!
Awesome video. My coach has be doing these same drills for the past 3 months and I am down to a 8 hdcp now.
Love it!
Great video. Would really have liked to see more on the downswing as it's the hardest part of this swing.
Thanks, Larry!
I had never associated being able to hit the ground in front of the ball with shoulder tilt, so this video was really useful for me. Thanks for posting this.
Our pleasure, John! Hope its useful!
@@CogornoGolf I'm sure it will be. Great little series with Jess! I was taught S&T a few years ago and whist I got to striking the ball pretty well, I never managed to figure out how to turn - my ball flight was pretty much always a draw / hook. S&T also rather went out of fashion and since I was then also being taught something more traditional, I rather gave up on it. Unfortunately my game collapsed to the extent that I even thought giving up. As a last resort I started watching loads of TH-cam videos including your channel plus various others. I feel I have learned a huge amount which I don't think would have happened if I had relied solely on "in person lessons". I just need to put it all into practice although that is hard in the current environment (at least in the UK). I am deliberately trying to watch fewer videos now unless the topic catches my eye but am interested in learning more about ground reaction forces if you are thinking about new topics for videos. Cheers.
This is an excellent. Too many instructors talk about doing a helicopter turn with the shoulders but don't explain how to do it by side bending to maintain the body tilt in the backswing.
Thanks, Peter!
Great information. Look at how much Trevino tilts. Both back and through. Also, Jack sets up the neck tilt at the start by swivelling his head to the right.
Yessir
Super lesson! When I learnt to play golf I always believed tilt was wrong and turn was the thing to focus on! This was some 30 years ago. As a result I have played inconsistent golf never really being able to get a consistent strike. I now see how important the tilt is. I like to introduce a neck tilt by setting up with it. ie looking at the ball with my left eye. Thank you a great lesson!
My pleasure my friend....glad you are heading in the right direction :)
This is great! Something I can practice at the house. Thanks once again.
Thanks, Tim! Our pleasure!
Really great video..Keep up the good work
Appreciate it!
Love the videos. Do you have one on fixing dipping your head towards the target & ground at the top of the swing?!
Yep---object over your head like end of this video
th-cam.com/video/TMMCQz3nlmw/w-d-xo.html
The timing of this series is impeccable. I'm getting to the nitty gritty of my swing now, standing up out of my shot ever so slightly during the follow through.
:) Hope it helps my friend
Eric... fantastic info.. another amazing inputs..kudos and thank you .. your are the Best
Thanks for your support!
@Eric Cogorno Golf eric... if we have more left knee bend on back swing.. do we feel the weight in on the right leg or left leg?
I always feel.when I have more left knee bend I am.going to have a reverse pivot on my upswing.
As a second-year golfer. This is great advice. Thank you!
Thanks! Our pleasure!
Love this video/lesson. This swing is geared towards hitting down on the ball as you would want with an iron in your hands. Question: since you want to hit “up” on a driver, are there any changes to be made when hitting a driver?
You always want to replace forward bend with side bend
So the longer the club the less forward bend you have a setup (you are taller)
So you tilt less
90* to starting backswing always a good place to start
Great video!!! Very helpful
thanks, Jonathan!
Clear instruction. I always need reminding not enough shoulder tilt in backswing.
Thanks, Jim!
Thank u for this. I so needed it
Our pleasure, hope it helps Sheila!
Wow can't wait to try this
Hope it helps, Don!
Hey Eric. Yet another great video. I like the head-on-the-pillow concept. Can I use that for the backswing as well? Going back left ear on the pillow, follow through the right ear on the pillow?
100%!
Reminds me a lot of the Stack & Tilt method by Bennet and Plummer from about ten years ago. That's by no means being critical. I like this instruction video a lot. Tilt is crucial for hitting iron shots consistently. But does it work for a driver swing as well?
Absolutely!
Wow awesome thanks Eric
You got it!!
Hi left hand on left knee gives you the feeling of tilting, thanks
Our pleasure!
Wow awesome Eric thanks!!!
Thanks-our pleasure!
Great video, Eric. I enjoyed the entire series of you and Jess coaching together! What about weight shift, does weight start 60/40 on the lead leg through the backswing with no shift to the back leg? Thanks!
Hey Paul!
At setup
I like to see 50/50 to 60/40 left for clubs when the ball is on the ground.
More 50/50 with driver
The pressure in the feet goes right (away from the target) to about 70-80% for the first 1/2 of the backswing....now the key is....
The pressure goes right in the feet BUT the mass of the body doesn't move right (away from target) it stays centered.
From 1/2 back to top of backswing its slowly starting to move back toward the target then progressively more toward the target throughout downswing
Thanks so much, Eric!
Excellent, Tried yesterday on the range, my feelings were 1. Tension at setup,impact,&follow through2. Ball flight high and left. Did not yet see this video. Will try today. Any secret to reduce tension, attain soft arms, relaxed wrists, in order to get fluidity throughout the swing?
Hey John!
Likely no secrets but focused effort IF that's causing you issues here are some resources that may help

Eric superb. Your videos are ‘the nuts’ as we say in England !
Thank you, James! Appreciate you watching!
Wonderful video tips
Thank you Lenard!
I've not been doing this move ever. I have never tilted just moved to the right in a pivot move moving off centre and having no side bend. Thank you for explaining this in lay man's terms. The less jargon the better I understand.
John
You got it, John! Hope it helps!
Absolute best video!!
Thanks, David!
Hi Eric. Out of interest,did Bobby Jones Tilt. Thank you for helping us battlers
Thanks Richard! He for sure did!
Excellent lesson thanks
Appreciate it! Our pleasure!
So good man. A question about your hand position at set up. Are you slightly forward of ball? If so, how far is best? Maybe you already have made one on that and explains this in more details. Thank you for always great content and clear instructions. Wishing you the best!!!
Hands inside left thigh!
th-cam.com/video/sJd-0eEQU0w/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/HM5xElkpUi8/w-d-xo.html
Eric, what would you recommend as the weight distribution on lead and trail feet at set-up? Does the weight balance become more lead foot based as the swing commences or does it stay the same (to keep the head stationary)?
Great video and content - thank you 👏
Hey Will!
I would start roughly 50-50 or slightly more forward with irons like 55-60 Left
Pressure on balls of feet just forward or middle to start
Some on how it goes in swing:

Gold. F$&cking gold. Thanks as always Eric!
Thanks, Chris!
This helped me immediately. As Eric knows, I have been working on improving depth and turn and am getting better over the last year or so, but I still struggle with poor quality of contact and early extension but am working on that also. I took this video lesson to heart and the course on Saturday with really no practice. I have never hit the ball so well off the tee! 12/14 fairways and 4/4 GIR on the par 3s! And a few irons that were so well struck it was like a Eureka! moment. I didn’t score well (37 putts) but I am off today (Monday) and headed to the range with a lot of excitement and enthusiasm. Thanks again EC for all you do!
Boy you solved my problem.thanks more than you know.
:) Glad to help my friend!
I love how you keep coming back to this crucial topic Eric. I really think it's the most non understood part of the motion.
The fact the we go to full back extension, of course adding left tilt, is the mind blower for people.
Another good one!
Thanks man!
Eric thank you for sharing this great video. Would you say that someone who has let say less tilt in backswing will have really difficulty to take the right shoulder down and forward, thus ending up more level
Thank you.
Hey!
Sometime YES but sometimes NO.
Even with good tilt in backswing you could make good or bad downswing moves.
@@CogornoGolf Thanks Eric ...true true true.
Eric, I noticed Justin Thomas in particular has his left arm at the top of the swing at an even steeper angle to the ground than his shoulders. Do you recommend trying to get to that position or is same angle for lead arm and shoulders best position for most of us?
Hey Jim!
Yes...while he is able to lower it and perform incredibly (from lots of right side bend among other pieces) that would not be the easiest way for most golfers..
I would suggest the lead arm ON or slightly above shoulder plan....butt of club in middle of feet to heel
th-cam.com/video/6quQa2Wr0bY/w-d-xo.html
Where does the back swing extension fit into the backswing as mentioned on prior video. W ould this change the spine angle on the backswing?
Hey Richard!
Nope.
You EXTEND (chest UP) as your left shoulder goes down.
The combination of those two keeps your head in the circle
th-cam.com/video/YquRd9mVUzY/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/90Iy1Lm1ynw/w-d-xo.html
Great video Eric and Jess. But I agree with another commenter who said he would like more attention to the downswing part of this tilting activity. For me, that also seems like the hardest piece of the stack and tilt.
Hey Michael! Thanks! More on that here

Love the Left Shoulder/Ear Down on BS and Right Shoulder/Ear Down FT
;)
I’m curious about the combination of sidebend with the tilt. I feel that side end is a critical component as well.
Hey Eric!
We are using "side bend" and "tilt" interchangeably here.
The side bend technically would be the shoulder getting closer to the hip WITHOUT the hips moving in the opposite direction.
TILT would be the shoulder lowering AS the hips move in the opposite direction.
There is some of each
Thank you for the thoughtful response. I’ve been following you for quite awhile thru COVID and you’ve really helped me.
To the degree that I was joking the other day that I’ve been making some changes to my swing and intentions with my swing that have been so beneficial that it makes me want to leave a flaming bag of poo on my early golf instructors doorstep, metaphorically of course. And I was already a mid single index.
One issue I keep working on is when and at what pace to incorporate side bend in transition, sometimes I feel like it can lead me to hang back a bit. I know you’ve done videos on it. Your Ben hogan piece was helpful. I know positions can make one “staticky” but a further exploration of your drill / feel with the iron held against your side / intercostal serratus area to the ball at impact would be appreciated by me and others too I think.
Keep up the great work.
Great video. At least once a round I hit a sh*nk. Could tilt help with this? I think my backswing is very flat.
It could...I would need to see your swing on video to say for sure.
Check out www.cogornogolf.com if you dont get it sorted....but flat backswing turn could be why!
Eric, very good. Thank you. What about right side bend on the way down? Or are we saying that removes the slant that we want. A little confused what to do on downswing
Hey Peter!
I think these two videos will help you best:
th-cam.com/video/qgk4lUWTWAk/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/WfqDbTB0Zf8/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching!
@@CogornoGolf thank you
Fairly certain this is the fiirst discussion I've heard of proper ear positioning -- but seriously, good stuff.
:) Thanks, Fred!
This is something I have never done in my swing and never, as far as I know, had it explained to me by any of the teachers i’ve seen over two decades. I have always thought the shoulder turn was just to turn my shoulders on a level plane and that could be my biggest problem. I’m very grateful for this very key and important element to the golf swing. I agree it could be the missing link for all of us amateur golfers who struggle.
Hope it helps, Grace!
Eric, does this also help to take the hands out of it in terms of tension?
Letting the hands go for the ride a bit?
A lot of stack & tilt philosophy here yes? Thanks as always, Gary
Hey Gary!
I'm not so sure what effect this will have on tension in the arms/hands..
You could say if you get the body motions correct you don't need to rely on the arms and hands as much!
@@CogornoGolf I'm starting to understand the concept of using the spine as a lever. If I could only get the left wrist to behave through impact!
really really good
Thank you Larry!
Doesn't the S&T swing also favor a ball in a more 'forward' position?
Hey Rob!
Nope...there are several ball position combination they use that can work depending on the ball flight you prefer.
Difference in tilt: iron vs driver? Probably related to my follow-up question: difference in tilt: shorter vs taller golfer? Seems like shorter golfer with same length club would tilt less - just unsure how significant this would be (if correct). I see recordings of myself, draw the lines, see that I am apparently not tilted nearly enough and then wonder about club length and player height influence on these general illustrations. Any thoughts/pointers/links?
Hey Ashton!
There would be a difference in terms of the AMOUNT of tilt from club to club, but the same general concept here applies to all clubs. It also applies to all possible player heights.
If you drew a line through your spine/back line at setup, you want to tilt your shoulders down about 90° to that initial spine angle line. This allows the golfer to keep their head centered.
90° to the back line is a good checkpoint throughout the bag. Replace the amount of forward bend at setup with tilt in the backswing. So if you are 30° bent over at setup, tilt your shoulders 30°ish. Since you are bent over more or less with different clubs, that will change that. So with a wedge where you are more bent over at setup, there is more tilt automatically in the backswing. You are less bent over with the driver, so 90° to that line will be less tilted over in the backswing.
Hope this is helpful!
Eric just to put things into perspective: is this the opposite to the "throw out"? Is this more of a hit as opposed to a swing in Golfing Machine terminology? Thank you as always...
Hey Jose!
I don't think so, nope.
Another great Eric Cogorno video. I had a level shoulder turn away from the ball before. This is eye opening instruction. Thank you for letting us view these.
Hope this one helps your game, Richard!
I have a hard time knowing if I need to broke my wrist or the body moving thru will center the club face up?
Hey Tim! Hard to give you a good answer there without seeing your swing. Need to see what's going on. Consider joining our team at www.cogornogolf.com you can send your video in there for feedback!
I believe a big peice is missing and that’s the hip sway toward the target at the same time you make the transition so if someone is trying to flip the tilt they need to be blended with the proper hip pivot since that makes the down swing tilt a lot harder to accomplish
Thanks for the feedback, Larry!
Here's a video on the hip action you may like to check out👍
th-cam.com/video/lSOHKUmLq7w/w-d-xo.html
Eric, it seems like how far the ball is away from the body has more of an influence on this than it first appears. Or am I missing something? How do we have enough tilt on short irons, or especially long irons with standard lengths etc.??
Hey!
Of course.
You are replacing your forward bend with side bend in backswing.
I think the answers you are looking for can be found here: th-cam.com/video/Z3WRJIYky10/w-d-xo.html
Here is more on distance from the ball: th-cam.com/video/c5FJRwZ_GnI/w-d-xo.html
This has to be one of the greatest videos. Thank you so much. Do you have a video going in depth into tilt in the driver swing at all stages of the swing? I know on set up how important side tilt is but would be great to talk about the stages just like this video. Thanks Eric.
Thanks!
I don't think we have driver tilt specific but its the same concept.
Shoulders 90* to back line is a good baseline
Since you stand taller with Driver there will be less tilt
This was a great video for me. See after not playing for 16 years I’m now retired and finally able to play again. I’ve been filming myself and I’m amazed that I actually make good consistent contact lol…my head moves down and back then back up and into the circle ⭕️ I have drawn around my head. To do that I get up on my toes and I’m losing distance because my right wrist has released before contact. How do I correct this ? I don’t feel myself doing this but the video says otherwise. Any drills to keep my feet planted would be greatly appreciated
I would set this station up at home and hit 20-30 balls per day for next 12 months to keep head in circle
th-cam.com/video/TIDfZFdNW_0/w-d-xo.html
that would teach you what to feel with your feet to keep head there
If not you can work on feet directly several ways....if you dont get it sorted consider www.cogornogolf.com you can sign up for 7 day free trial and send in your swings!
Some of these thoughts and drills may help as well
th-cam.com/video/TMMCQz3nlmw/w-d-xo.html
@@CogornoGolf thank you very much and I am considering taking lessons 👍🏼
I would suggest!!
I’ll add this to my 152nd swing thought 🙂
Lol...work with a good coach to find the top 1-3 priorities and keep hitting those until you get them!
@@CogornoGolf I was just kidding around... but it can definitely get confusing.
You have a great channel! I’ll take your advice on just focusing on 2-3 concepts.
Thanks
how does bending/ tilting promote a ball first strike/ prevent fat shots? It was not elaborated.
Hey!
To start: if you don't tilt....how would you strike the ground?
At P4 for this type of swing, how much pressure is distributed among your feet (looks like it's slightly more on the lead side)?
I like 50/50 to start
70-30 ish by left arm parallel in the backswing (pressure shifted not body mass)
From left arm parallel to the top start working slowly back to target to 50/50 at the top
Then 70/30 to 80/20 by impact
hope that helps
@@CogornoGolf Def helped! I'm sure you've made a video that demonstrates this? What should I search for? Thanks man!
One thing I (think I) notice is that Mr. Cogorno’s right hip does not move much in the backswing away from the target line. Instead it seems to move more towards the target as the knee straightens. There is a school of thought that the right hip should more away from the target line so that the hips both rotate around the sacrum that stays a set distance away from the target line.
I find that if I think “left knee and left shoulder down” my body pivots around my right hip instead of the sacrum and the left side of my body sways towards the target line. Seems to me that is a danger that needs to be avoided that might arise from this otherwise excellent video.
Thanks! I agree I could do better there!
Sick video Eric! Is this part of the S&T swing?
Thanks!
Every golfer who has ever played (semi well :)) has tilt.
Not part of stack and tilt....just a good golf swing!
@@CogornoGolf thanx, i been S&T the last few months but have a hard time with driver.. I’ll just tilt now
Is tilt ADDING angle to address abgle on backswing?
Nope...maintaining
If you put a dot on the base of your neck....thst should stay pretty stable in backswing
You are replacing forward bend at setup with side bend during backswing to the degree that it stays stable
Not titling my neck ….. And to think I tilt everything else. I will try this at the range next time!
Hope this one helps, Ron!
So Jesse is coming from the stackn tilt school? Very interesting video. But left shoulder down, left knee down, how does that work with students how tend to have no separation, who just turns the hip and shoulders together?
Hey Mange!
Everyone must tilt. That applies for all golfers regardless of their current pattern.
@@CogornoGolf I get that and totally agree, was just curios how much separation you need in the golf swing. Thanks for the answer!!!
More separation isn't NEEDED.....BUT.....it definitely creates more SPEED!

@@CogornoGolf aha, I thought all good golfers needed to separate lower from upper body in the backswing also, to be able to do it in the downswing. But maybe Im confusing hip separation with pelvis rotation? It just looks wrong when people turn back hips and shoulders together to my eyes. Like they are loading the left side instead of the right side.
A good feel for this is try to touch left ear to left knee durning takeaway
👊Appreciate you watching the channel!
Understand the importance of the tilt - but I kinda miss the important "extend" component that was highlighted in the previous video. Maybe too late - but would be nice to see how the "tilt" and the "extend" blend together.
Thanks for the feedback Steve!
You do both together progressively through each side of the swing to the point where the head stays in the circle.
@@CogornoGolf Thanks, Eric. Realize it's hard to get in all in with one video!
Does one tilt with a driver?thanks
Yep! 90* to backline. Replace forward bend with side bend in backswing...video on this coming soon
Hi what about weight shift ?
How much weight to r side as looks like v little as dip left shoulder on backswing
Otherwise excellent
More on that coming up, David!
