This is gold Jerry "Eric", GOLD!...some will not get it...
Thanks Bania!
Puke? Thats a fun word
You owe me a dinner!
I always thought early extension was the problem. It’s actually a reaction to a poor set up. Awesome lesson!!!
100% thats one of the big reasons! and I would start there.
early extension could also be from downswing shaft being too steep, club face too open....
I have been struggling with this for awhile now. I can't thank you enough for this explanation and cure. This will be tough to do for me since I've always reached a little and been more bent over. Thanks Eric.
Hope it serves you well!
The golf swing has many loops and levers. Understanding the effects of opposite motions, like this video does clearly, has helped me improve my swing and correct issues quickly.
Well done!
👊
Thank you Michael!
This is a great video. I’ve always struggled with this when I’m playing poorly. This is part early extension. I like the right rib cage feel. Never heard this before. Your video with Malaska about pushing the ground away from you or using the ground forces to rotate your hips was the only lesson that ever fixed my early extension and I thank you for that. Hitting the ball better than ever. Keep up the great work.
Love to hear it! Thanks for being here with us!
I’m apparently too top heavy. I also noticed myself yesterday correcting my posture during my putting stroke. I apparently lean over way too much. Great video!
Thanks! Hope this one helps your game!
Great video Eric. I guess someone like Keegan Bradley is an exception here but his flexibility allows him to retain the angle through the downswing. Hope he’s getting treatment to stop the right crunch from injuring his back long term!
Thats right! Huge anomaly. He makes it work great so I'd never change it.....but I'd probably never teach it either :)
Another great video, Eric👏 I play with a slight open stance, which I find helps for this drill as does hovering the club just above and behind the ball. Doing this encourages you to get down and into the back of the ball. It is certainly working for me!👌🏻
👊
Thank you Ken!
The thing I get from this is balance. The brain wants to maintain balance. Upper body too far forward and hips too far back in setup creates an imbalance during down swing. So in order to keep balance we have to stand up moving the hips forward under the chest. More great instruction from Eric!
👊
Thank you!
I literally needed exactly this. Been struggling with early extension in my downswing/forward swing...
Hope it helps!
Great video! I dropped my trail foot back like your previous video and my impact quality improved significantly (no toe strikes). Seems like the 2 videos achieve the same end result - not humping the goat.
Glad this one helped, Greg!
As of tonight, this is the online golf tuition I’m watching! All makes total sense, cheers Eric!
Great to have you here with us!!
Great video! I think what you showed makes for a more relaxed effortless swing.
👊
Thank you!
This is another really good one, it seems to be the hot topic all over the Internet right now. Another instructor was saying to have your heels about 2 to 3 inches away from the wall and your butt, barely touching the wall and maintain that in the backswing and forward swing.that has helped my ball striking to be more consistent. I’ll have to work out between your lesson and the other one to see, which works better for me? Any thoughts?
Agreed with you----whichever works best to keep your inclination to the ground in the downswing and through impact is what I would go with!
This is a great demonstration and explanation. Thank You
Thanks Steven!
i combined this technique with pete cowen’s twist the right arm and the concept of short game chef’s body pivot which are all in principle similar makes it a good rereference for freeing up the downswing and striking the ball solid.
Love it
awesome ....much love, brother. You're an awesome teacher. That's it!
Thank you!!
My main flaw as well. Thanks for this lesson, Eric!
Hope it helps!!
Makes perfect sense. It's such an easy thing to overlook, but its such a big setup mistake. Thanks for this tip.
Hope it helps Jim!!
Great video. I have struggled with early extension. My posture is good but I think I was getting too much right hip depth in the back swing. Love the box drill. Hope this solves it.
Hope it serves you well, Dave!
Nice to know where to start with bending over and how to create 8:48 depth makes so much sense. Thanks
Hope this one helps, Mike!
this is hard to time though if you are a beginner. the “bad stance” is more repeatable so you don’t have to think of timing the hips going back during the golf swing.
:)
Overhand golf been talking about this for 4 years but this is correct
Excellent!
I just joined Cognrno golf. I have huge regrets….that I never joined months ago. I wasn’t sure how online lessons would go but I was pleasantly surprised. Steve is awesome. All the videos are specific to my swing. I have already made progress after my first lesson. I can’t wait to see how good I can get.
Love to hear that Scott! Appreciate the support and you being with us!! Look forward to seeing your continued progress!
Great drill. Thank you very much
Thank you! Hope it helps!
thanks, great video …..I’ve been trying to figure out the “why” and this tells me the “how” !
Love it! Thank you!
Bit of a game changer this one Eric. Thanks
Love to hear it!
Great stuff Eric…much needed
Thanks Paul!
Great video Eric. Your content is excellent.
Thanks for your support!!
One of the best on TH-cam!
Appreciate the support!!
The best I’ve ever hit the ball is when at top, my first move is lowering my hands below the shoulder line(homer kelly’s unloading power accumulator 4). Would love if you’d do a lesson on this
th-cam.com/video/PAqXj4SgtxA/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
Here ya go Scott!
Awesome Eric...
Thanks Douglas!
Standing closer and more upright definitely helps to get the trail shoulder down at impact. I felt a DJ finish for the first time and the ball took off like a rocket. Thanks for the tip, pro! 👊
I can attest to this. Feels very awkward at first, like your lower body is going to get in the way at impact. But that’s the point, your lower body has no choice but to push back and clear out of the way while rotating 👍
@@starlust8416 I saw a Rory McIlroy playing lesson on Golf Channel yesterday and the first thing he said about driver is getting his left knee out of the way. It's like making a circle that goes back around the left hip. After that you can see his hip clear and everything stretch. Then he just lets it go.
Glad this one helped!!
Hi Eric. I think what causes people to be too top heavy at set up is they're preparing for their shoulder line to face down just outside the ball in the backswing. Is it ok to have a more upright flat shouldered backswing if in transition you rotate properly? In other words, you kinda achieve a shallowing effect in transition by steepening the shoulder line.
Hey MJB! Usually I would say no......but if you can make it happen yes.
Most who go back FLAT will come down STEEP (with shoulders and club)
To go from flat shoulders to shallow most will tilt too much and extend and not turn (contact issues)
Those old golf swings look so fluid. "Like water" as Bruce Lee said lol
:) Great swings!
best golf site on the net ......
Thank you!
Just to clarify with the drill..upon initiating the downswing do I want to feel the right cheek hit the box first or both?
Right at top
Both early in downswing
Ive been trying to get my right hip back as much as possible after the takeaway due all the hip depth videos out there and that's probably why it's kicking towards the ball on downswing. For golfers who do that, you're saying to keep right hip neutral and push left hip back during downswing to create the hip depth?
Hey! YES....heres a great one for you with JT going through the details/feels for that:
th-cam.com/video/sFApkC1N-L4/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUmRXJpYyBDb2dvcm5vIHdoeSBhbWF0ZXVycyBlYXJseSBleHRlbmQ%3D
Another well-timed video.
Thanks for watching!
This is also a perfect reason to get in the gym if you are a serious golfer. If you have a big gut, this is pretty much impossible
John Daly would disagree.
No guts, no glory
I don't think so. It's like like having big boobs you just gotta go with it lol. Also losing weight is about diet a lot of fat guys out there deadlifting 800 lbs...
:)
Not turning your hips, can make you pull the ball? Thank you, great video .
Thanks Carlos!
Great insights to root cause! The more correctly I learn to swing, the simpler it gets. Why all the complications along the ways 😂
:)
I think this video makes your top 5 ever made?
If I’m 6 2’ built like Adam Scott, could I need longer clubs than normal? Standing straighter.
If I’m toe heavy divot, #1 fault for that? Thx.
Thank you!
Yeah could explore longer clubs---I would suggest going to see a good club fitter in person to work through the best options.
Cant say for sure on toe heavy sorry lol----too many variables. Need to see your swing to see whats causing that. Send videos in to www.cogornogolf.com so we can see, diagnose and fix!
Is this valid for driver and fw's? Seems like you could get so close that a lot of necked shots are in your future. Can't wait to try this at the range because I am the poster boy for early extension.
Hey! Yep---can apply to all clubs!!
Trying this exact thing in my practice session tonight, will report back.
Hope it helps!
Hey Eric - I'm 6'6" and already play clubs at +1.5", still have to bend way over to get to the ground at address. Would you recommend go longer to get more upright at address? I've never been able to set up like you're suggesting!
6'5" and also +1.5". Same question...
Yeah thats an option....also could do a touch wider with stance. Wider stance lowers you to the ground as well....
I would get together with a good coach in person or online or club fitter to work through the details and test out the options
Your hips want to be over your balance point at impact. That balance point is your left ankle. If you start out with your hips too far back, they will seek out that balance point in the down swing.
:)
I’m confused. In a previous video you stated a good way to check distance to the golf ball is when you can get a first between the butt end of the club and your legs. In the drill your just showed the club is like dang near two inches from your legs
Hey Jonathan! Sorry for any confusion...
Wont be the same for everyone....
But generally speaking....
Let's say with an 8 iron....
When you setup you want your arms to hang basically dead straight down right over your toe line
Back of armpits over balls of feet, hips over ankles....
hope that helps
@@CogornoGolf Thank you!
Does the box drill translate to the driver? or is it just for irons?
Hey! You can use that for all clubs!
And I still manage to early extend even with a better posture 😫 cool video though !
Would love to help! Send us your swings at CogornoGolf.com so we can diagnose and fix!👊
So wouldn’t you need to also match/change your release as well if you’re someone who would hang back a bit and have more of a CF release? This body turn would match more of CP type release (hands in more club head outside hands exit)? Would imagine the player would start hitting blocks if he isn’t aware.
Eric you are simply amazing
Eric you are simply amazing could you sometime in the future make a video on past impact in to follow through to increase speed
For sure where your body is will effect your release (and other pieces)
At the top of the backswing how does the chest over hips relationship look from a face on view?
Hey Joseph! Shirt buttons right on top of belt buckle or slightly farther from target

How tall are you Eric, I just want to compare myself to you when I do these drills. Thanks
Hey! 6'0
Is it true that you have to feel like you’re downswing with the left side to not go over the top
Hey James! For some yes but not everyone needs to feel that
👏
Thanks for watching!
What if anything changes with a driver, since the angle of attack goal is positive.
You can use this the same way for all clubs!
For some reason I feel just the opposite. When i keep my butt back...difficult to rotate. When I extend pelvis a bit toward ball...easier to rotate
If that works for you all good!!
Make that 4 golfers...i.e. me :-D
:)
definitely owe a shoutout to Trevor S.....
For sure! I learned this first from George Gankas!!
Were all three of them me??
:)
This is why I think about skipping a rock. The ONLY thing I think about is: sticking my butt back on the downswing. I gain 20 MPH on my driver.
👊
Appreciate you being here with us!
Three straight scores in the 80s with tips and notes from your videos. Today was the lowest with a 84 and didn’t feel like I played great due to a few bad holes (which Is exciting). I’ve officially unsubscribed from all other golf pros besides you 🫡
Hell yeah Frank---appreciate you being here with us!
