    I'm sending your videos to all the people I golf with who need it. Within a year of watching your videos, I got to 84 last week. I'm consistently 80s now where I couldn't break 100. And my shots are very very consistent. Need to work on getting closer to the pin so I don't 3 putt. Thank you for everything 🙌🙌

      Exact same with me. Couldn’t break 100 for nothing. Started actually implementing things from this channel and Tom Sagutos channel and I finally have a consistent golf swing with great contact every time.

      Hard to say without seeing your swing on video my friend, we'd simply be guessing too much. Send us your swings at www.cogornogolf.com so we can do a full analysis and build out a practice plan for you.
      Hope to see ya there!

    hi Eric Tnx very much for your tuition
    I started a simpler version of your lesson using my right knee to start and point to the ball it helps a lot to sort out hitting behind the ball vide Tommy Armour's book I know is old school I'm going to try and improve with your advice
    Tnx very much Eric

    • @jamiesloan7259
      @jamiesloan7259 2 года назад

      Your head does need to stay slightly behind the ball, with driver. Remember…. The ball is positioned further up in your stance, with driver. With irons…. Your head will end up moving a little forward, but because of ball position, this results in your head slightly over the ball. However, do not allow your head to continue forward, in an arch. This is where left side extension, and right side bend come into play. On your backswing, you should feel your head staying centered, hips turning 45*, and shoulders turning 90*. You must turn your body essentially around your neck. You’ll feel a right oblique stretch, and a left side crunch, if done correctly. Now, just the opposite on the downswing. Rock the pressure into your left side, and simple turn around your neck. This keeps the head centered. Left shoulder will go up, and behind you, as the right shoulder goes down, under, and through. You should feel left oblique extension, and right side crunch through impact, and follow through, if done correctly. Good luck.

    • @CogornoGolf
      @CogornoGolf  11 месяцев назад

      Yo! That can work--yes.
      Some FEEL more of a "fall" or "float" to the left
      Others feel a push off the right
      Both can work

    Eric, happy Sunday to you. Another great video communicated in a clear and not overly complicated way. As I watch my Bears get crushed again today 😢, I will be practicing in front of the TV. As someone who tends to get up on that right toe rather early in the downswing should I be letting that club under the right foot be hitting the ground a little later then maybe somebody who is hanging too far back?

    Eric. What do you think of the sheftic pressure board? To ingrain this feel? I don’t necessarily hang back but a few swing a round I know I don’t fully shift my weight properly.

      Head works slightly forward in transition from top to left arm parallel then it stays there until arms parallel in follow through

    I shift my weight into my back foot by unweighting my front foot. I shift my weight to my front foot by unweighting my back foot. I find using this technique I can shift pressure very quickly from foot to foot without swaying. Any thoughts about this technique?

    How about a videos where you take one of these lessons and show a golfer improving using the drills, because I feel you could never do it, taking the swing apart like this never works, it's lazy and counter productive, but it's easy to deliver and sell.

    Why do most pros recommend spinning your hips and not to push forward? They mostly say you should feel like you're pushing downwards but spinning your hips toward the target.
