I've wondered about this for years while standing at address over the ball and never heard anyone address the upper arm vs lower arm rotation positions. Your explanation is the only one AND one of the best videos I've ever seen regarding the golf swing period! You are a genius!
Haha thanks, Ken! Hope it helps my friend!
The GRIP you have effects this some. Stronger grip elbow will be more toward target, weaker more toward you.
Thanks so much for this! Of all the hundreds of instructional videos I've seen over decades of poor golf, this has single-handedly transformed my swing -- no exaggeration. The mechanical technique is so expertly explained that it clarifies any backswing questions that I've had for a long time. Cheers!
Love it, Jim! Appreciate the kind words and support!
More gold from Eric. If you focus on activating your core and chest, your arms will soften a bit (less tension void)...I can’t wait to try this on the range. You’re the best RUclips golf instructor I’ve found and grateful for what you do.
Thank you sir :)
This has the feel of one of those 'well kept secrets' that very good players rarely talk about. Yes, we have all heard about 'elbows in' and 'avoid chicken wings' etc, but your simple routine for sorting this properly at address is brilliant. I have been using the technique religiously for my last 3 rounds and it has had the effect of keeping my iron shots remarkably strait, where I have always had a tendency to slice. The noticeable thing for me is that it creates an in-built "coiled spring" feeling at address (left bicep, if you are right handed), which prevents your brain from trying to hit the ball too hard. A subtle change to the grip, but a true Eureka moment. Thanks for sharing!
MY pleasure...happy to hear it has helped!
any good for the driver swing?
It's like you made this video specifically for my swing! How has no coach ever corrected this for me?! I struggle mightily with path and I finally know why. Thanks Eric.
Hope it helps, Michael!
@@CogornoGolf What Michael said. I've been battling "the roll" inside for 8 years. I simultaneously feel stupid and grateful.
Ditto Michael!
@@BobNeyland You couldn't have said it better. After 3 years golfing I feel exactly the same: Stupid and grateful.
@@BobNeyland I'm in your club Trey, I see the light !
Eric, I’m a 3 handicapper from Scotland and have been struggling with a flat takeaway forever. Your series of takeaway vids are simply amazing. You have a natural ability when it comes to conveying your message and the instruction shines through.
I can’t wait to try this out on the range tomorrow!
Thanks again fella.
MY pleasure- appreciate the message and kind words my friend!
I’ve watched hundreds of videos and you’re the first instructor I’ve seen that has addressed this topic. I finally know how to position my arms at address to help me get rid of my inside takeaway. Thank you.
MY pleasure my friend...hope it helps!
Eric, thank you so much for explaining where the left elbow should be at address. I have always had a problem with my swing being too steep and as a result I would always bury my clubhead into the ground. I had lessons in the past and no club pro ever explained where the elbow should be at address. Your videos are superb. Keep up the great work. You are greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Ernie! Appreciate the kind words and we are happy to help where we can!
Standing in my office doing this and it feels superb.
Another fantastic tip from the best RUclips instructor 👊🏻
Haha love it man! Our pleasure!
I agree!! Love his vids!
Ha ha doing the same. Hopefully nobody’s looking. 🏌🏿♂️
Quit watching RUclips videos and get back to work. Those TPS reports are not going to be finished by themselves!
David Jones all these drills work and look great in the office.. until you hit the course and realize it’s not lol
Eric, I have watched hundreds of videos on this topic and I have never seen this explanation before. It has really helped me understand what I am doing in my backswing and how to correct it.
Love to hear that!
Thanks a lot Eric! After 3 years of golfing you gave me my Eureka moment. I would always hit the ground before the ball. I went to the range yesterday after watching this video the day before and I could feel the difference. Thanks again.
Love it, Boris! Keep it going!
This combined with the videos on shallowing and rotation is just amazing the difference. The most understandable golf instructor on youtube for sure.
Love it! Thank you sir!
Good stuff Eric! Never come across any other instructor explain a back swing by separating the forearm and shoulder rotation so clearly. Thanks!
Hope that helps, Rohit!
This simple short presentation is worth MONEY! Take this advice .Great and simple for the best advice on backswing of a good swing. I have studied many .
Thanks, Larry! Appreciate the kind words!
Thank you! I have been struggling with a flat backswing, have checked out so many videos but this is the first that mentions the importance of the elbow position/angle! Cheers!
Hope it helps, Andrew!
Best takeaway video on RUclips! About 10 minutes in, the real magic is shown. Grab your lead arm just above your elbow by trailing hand, then pull it back. That will give you a great function move to replicate on your normal backswing. Thanks Eric!
Thanks Rodney! Hope this one serves you well!
Hey Eric! Just want to let you know this is by far the best tip I’ve ever seen. I’ve been fighting my backswing for years and this quite simply puts me in plane every swing. I’ve been fighting to break 80 for about a decade and finally did it today. Shot a personal best 77 with a 33 on the front! Not bad for a 13 handicap. Just wanted to say thanks so much and keep doing what you’re doing. Huge fan.
Love to hear that, Michael! Great playing my friend!! Keep it going.
Eric, this with among of other your videos is superb and has changed my game completely. Played almost 15 years and finally realized how whole swing should look like. Can't thank you enough!
Thank you for the kind words Juuso! Appreciate you being here with us!
Kinda funny that you posted this today as I just discovered this exact thing last night watching videos of Brooks Koepka’s driver swing. I think it’s important to realize that you can keep the clubhead outside your hands in the backswing and it not solve your transition problems, i.e. you can still roll your left arm over too much at the top. Which is where this video comes in. For me, I have to feel like I’m pushing the handle back with my left hand faster than the clubhead is moving back. Thanks for all the videos Eric. You guys rock.
Sounds like you are heading in the right direction, Garrett! You're spot on. Our pleasure!
Garrett Noble Agree 100 percent on the idea of handle going first and faster than the clubhead. Works for me too as I think it prevents the club from going inside and flat.
Finally, this has made sense!!! I was down to a 7 and went to an instructor who was telling me to rotate the forearm which made my swing plane flat and with severe coming over the top. The instruction worked so well, I am now up to a 12! (sarc intended) Can't wait to practice this. Thanks Eric!
Haha hope it helps and you get back on track, Mike!
Best session that helped fix my swing flaw, practiced one session on the range, lights went on and now hitting consistent shots, a huge thanks.
Love my! My pleasure, Steve!
Eric’s left elbow visual tip is working wonders with my set-up into takeaway into backswing into downswing and through contact. Cinching elbows close and then slightly rotating left forearm gets me into proper set-up. Then Eric’s visual on where left elbow faces on takeaway up to backswing resolved my positioning issues. A few range sessions and two rounds in-my iron play is vastly improved. Aim. Distance. 3-wood is money. Thanks for this critical intel. So simple. Instant results.
Love to hear that, Christopher!
@@CogornoGolf I would add that I also incorporated your Two Takeaway tips. One, using tee in shaft end and keeping it close to right thigh on takeaway and making sure the handle doesn't get away from the body. All combined: they help me to "get vertical" and, inherent in the moves, turn properly and into that classic back swing position with back to target. I'm 61, I still can turn, and now it all just...happens. Last comment--if your tech team could put in some "slo-mo" shots, the videos will be second...to none. Thanks!!
Eric is easily one of the best instructors online! This tip is everything!!!
Thanks, Willie!
Totally agree ,clear instructions and reasons why certain things need to be applied throughout drill
Eric brilliant, had dozens of lessons over the last 30 years ere in uk,not one pro has ever mentioned this it’s changed my swing so much! Cheers !
You got it my friend-hope it helps!
Hi, Eric. Thanks for the tip of keeping one's elbows turned down. I tried it at the range today with very interesting results. First, it felt very awkward. I think that is because I don't have a lot of flexibility and it's a new setup for me. My elbows normally want to face outward. However, when I tried your suggestion, I was making a much nicer contact with the ball, especially with the driver. I noticed from the setup that it basically forced my body to turn. Whereas before, I was just turning from my shoulders. Thanks again. E.J.
Awesome-glad to hear that EJ...hope you continue to see good results!
My teacher was telling me to do this but I couldn't understand how it was possible.
You've demonstrated it perfectly and now I can do it.
Thank you, you're a great teacher. 👍
Appreciate it! Hopes you serve you well!
This is the best swing key I've seen for my swing on the internet. Eric, thanks so much. I've always known that I was fanning the club too open on my backswing and I always keyed on fixing the forearm part. Thumbs up on backswing, etc. Even with that I still struggled with getting inside the swing plane and then staying there through impact. Never had solid contact as I had to flip my hands at the ball. I never even considered the left shoulder rotation and where my elbow points as a swing key to keep my backswing on plane. This one video has made all the difference in the world to me staying on plane going back and staying square through impact. Such solid strikes! Thank you!
Love to hear that, Frank! Appreciate it!
I just started golfing this past summer. I am suffering, what I guess is, the typical ups and downs of a beginner. About three weeks ago, through trial and error, I changed my wrist hinge move and began striking my irons much more consistently. I played my best round ever on December 30th (A warm December day in Kentucky was like a late Christmas gift.). Unfortunately, I was down for a week or so with Omicron. When I started swinging my clubs again, I was shanking and thinning 60-70% of my shots. I was trying everything, but couldn’t figure out what had changed. I watched this video last night and it just made sense and I was convinced this is what had changed. I had gotten a little lazy and “flat” in my backswing. I hit 20 or so balls this morning and only shanked 2 or 3. A few more sessions and hopefully muscle memory will kick in. Thank you for explaining it so well. I have subscribed to the channel and will recommend it to my friends.
Hope this helps ya Chad! Keep watching the videos and you'll keep getting better
For the shanks ---add an object outside the ball just to hedge your bet to make sure the club head arc is correct

Thank you! This trick absolutely change my golf game, I struggled with going over the top for years to the point where I was going to quit playing golf. I used this lesson and since then I've been puring my irons shots.
Love this!
I am always “YouTubing” the proper backswing and this is the 1st I’m hearing of this. It’s the part of my game I have always struggled with. Going to the range this evening and giving it a try. Thks!
Hope it helps, Tim!
The three Navy guys in the background need some lessons from you too....lol ...the best part was the Happy Gilmore swing at 8:28
:)
🤣 Thanks for pointing that out, that was a good laugh.
i was gonna say 'are we really gonna ignore these men in the background orrrrrr' haha
Thank Goodness somebody finally dissected it. Mike Malaska talks about the necessity for natural rotation of the shoulders. rotation,, you put it out there for all of us. it s a key that the old U of Minnesota coach used to use to get our planes up.. Peter Kennedy MD
:) Thanks, Peter!
Wow so glad I found this! I've been struggling with a really flat swing forever! And it's almost impossible to not come over the top with a really flat backswing. Eric hits it out of the ballpark here. Can't wait to go to the range to work on this, makes a ton of sense!
Thanks, Paul! Hope it helps my friend. Keep me updated!
Cogorno gives some of the best and simple to follow lessons....he will save you a bunch of time and money......
:)
This video has solved all my backswing problems, so simple and effective!
Love to hear that!!
I always wondered why the only way I could fix my very flat backswing was by squeezing my elbows together, my guess would be because it forced the left arm into a similar position that Eric is describing here but I find it really uncomfortable and unnatural feeling. I'm definitely going to try this at the range and see if I can get a similar position at the top without the discomfort
Tried this yesterday. Added 7-10 yards to my clubs. (nice problem to have right). Feels much stronger. As earlier stated, I've never had any instructor address the left arm this way. Great video.
Thanks, Steven! Hope it continues to help!
Lol thought the guys in the background were shirtless at first then realized its our great military guys out having fun...thanks Eric for the great video lesson as always!
I watched your video and have really tried to implement your backswing advice. So far it really has helped me and improved my distance. Of course not every swing yet. Thanks for the great tip.
Thanks, Jim! Glad you are moving in the right direction my friend!
I’ve been playing more than 50 years- and I think I was on the verge of figuring this out myself. Thank you for posting!
MY pleasure, Ronald!
This was great, I've been looking for "different grips for driver and irons" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Reyuhaffad Underlying Recognition - (do a google search ) ? It is an awesome exclusive product for discovering how to revealing an effortless golf swing technique without the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my buddy got cool results with it.
Dude! You are blowing my mind! Flat backswing is a long-term problem for me. I have fought it off and am doing much better. Know how to takeaway by keeping the clubhead outside of my hands. However, never saw the difference between forearm rotation and elbow rotation. Just did it and it blows my mind that after 66 years of life I've never seen this about my arm!!! Not to mention that this will help my game. THANK YOU!!!
:) You got it my friend!
golf's quite a game of contrary. once you realize it, you know how great a teacher eric is. tks for sharing! :)
:)
I can only agree. A shame i found this so late! Better now than never
This is the best description of the role of the left elbow/arm in the backswing that I have ever seen. This is a description that is easy to duplicate at practice tee and take to the course
Appreciate it, John!
I've always fought a flat swing. Never understood how setup could influence this. I'm not playing this Saturday and I'm going to the range to work on this. Thanks Eric!
Haha love it...hope it helps, Bruce!
Lovely Video clip! Apologies for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you heard about - Paneevelyn Swinging Clubsman (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a great exclusive product for revealing an effortless golf swing technique without the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my friend at very last got cool success with it.
Hey Bruce. Has this improved your game?
@@dripsa This change along with a change in my wrist angles at the start of my backswing have really helped me shallow the club naturally. Eric knows his stuff.
@@brucefrank5556 yeah I've watched a LOT of coaching videos recently and by far like Eric's the most
Omg Eric.
I’m a plus one handicap and have been to several top 100 teachers.
I’ve always felt the back of my left hand was pointing out in front of me instead of towards the target.
Consequently I battle different feels with the backswing wanting to roll, or further pronate my wrists on the backswing.
Well, my left elbow at address (your entire message here) is also pointing at the target at address. Getting it pointing inward makes such a feel difference.
Wow.
Now I can feel how my hands can work under.
The key will then be getting that club to shallow properly with the bent back right wrist.
Thanks man🥂
Love it Bernie---you are on the right track! Hope it serves you well!
Sir, I think I owe you one now. If I ever become a pro one day its all because of you.
:)
I'm 60 and have struggled with the flat (clubhead to the inside) path for as long as I've played golf (46 years). I even invested in a swing arc to build muscle memory, which works, but not as easily as this tip worked. I went to the range yesterday (twice) and was shocked at how well this tip worked in just a few swings. It also helped me to stay over the ball and not sway on the way back. Thank you for this tip and I'll be watching more of your videos.
Love to hear that Kevin! Appreciate the kind words and support!
this is absolutely gorgeous。 Help me my iron shots tremendously. Thank you!!
My pleasure-happy to hear that!
I've been playing golf for 40 years, some really good, some not so much. In all my years I've played with my left elbow pointed at the target and bicep pointed across my chest. Lately I've been losing control of the clubhead at the top of the backswing so badly that Im completely steep coming down. I've tried everything, flattening swing, outside in, stack & tilt etc, and ending up with worse results every time. What an epiphany this is, I cant thank you enough! This is pure brilliance!
Glad to hear you are heading back in the right direction, Tom! Better late than never :)
Genius! Understood the feel, never understood the theory. Love the guys in the background.
:)
I have had plenty of instruction and no one has taught me this. For years I have struggled with the back swing for precisely the reasons you referenced. Often using muscle to keep my swing on plane rather than technique. While more practice is necessary, I love my initial results. I wish you were my instructor--you break it down in a way that makes sense. Thanks.
Happy to hear it Robert!

This was great! Makes a lot of sense. Noticed mine did rotate out a little bit. Good drill, thanks!
Hope it helps!
are you the best coach in the world ive watched so many of your tutorials which are so clear understandable and a fantastic help ,well done eric!
Thanks, Michael! Appreciate it!
Finally something to fix my steep downswing - have always struggled with a disconnect at takeaway - lockdown will give me plenty of time to practice, thanks Eric, great instruction as always 👌🏼
Thanks, Matt! Hope it helps my friend!
Started using a couple of Eric's video's and drills in the last week. I was hitting horrific slices and had no idea how to fix it. I am now hitting it much more solid. It has changed my mindset and more importantly my enjoyment of the game. Cant wait to get out on the course and implement it.
Love to hear that, Stephen! Keep it going!
Shot my lowest score this season because of this!! Thanks Eric!!
Excellent!
The single most helpful tip I've seen, maybe ever. When I took up golf I didn't turn my shoulders, just lifted my arms. Eventually I learned to turn the shoulders properly but my arms stayed low too long and the shaft stayed flat. Video of my swing looked like it was run in reverse: my backswing resembled a good downswing (shallow) and my downswing looked like a good backswing (steep.) Taking steps to correct it now
Glad to hear that, Dan! Rooting for ya my friend!
I've never heard of this before, but when I think back on my 'good' days on the course, I think this is what I was doing to hit the irons pure. Excellent video. Thanks!
Thanks, Jason!
Hi Eric. Just love your videos! I think back on the ol 'low and slow' and how that was the bane of my golf swing for 20 years. Gave me a flat swing. When they said 'too steep", I though is was the back swing! I could never understand why I could not hit a golf ball with any consistency until you came along. Now I get the club vertical enough so I can come down inside. You are the man. As always, thank you so much.
Love to hear that, Mark! My pleasure my friend!
Friggin’ awesome video Eric. Never heard the upper arm piece before. Looking forward to trying it. Thanks.
Thanks, Simon! Hope it helps!
Eric Cogorno Golf tried it today Eric. Best ballstrking round I’ve ever had. Three birdies on the front 9!
I am a total amateur. There have been plenty of people who told me how to swing but I’ve never been able to hit a ball well… until I watched this video. I watched it yesterday and today I decided to do that elbow thing you talk about. THIS was the piece of information I was missing ! I shit you not I managed to hit the ball 4 times in a row and one of them was straight. This is amazing ! Thank you !
Love to hear that!!
This is the swing thought I’ve been looking for. Thank you sir.
My pleasure my friend!
Your ability to plainly explain body mechanics makes this very easy to understand. And it's exactly the way I learn best. So glad I found your channel. Thanks.
Love to hear that Dave! Appreciate you being here with us!
Best golf tip I’ve had in my 10 years of playing! Thank you🙏
Happy to hear that, Jimmy! Glad it helped!
I've had all sorts of instruction that points to me going off plane but no one has ever offered anything like this drill ('trick') to fix it. Can't wait to give it a try. Thank you!
Hope it helps, Joseph!
Imagine paying almost $100 per hour for coach, never fix your backswing and one sleepless night you randomly discover this video for free on youtube and saved you from slicing and fatting your golf.
This is exactly what happened for me. Fighting my swing all year, taking lessons, pounding balls, playing like crap. This video made it so simple. Thanks Eric.
without doubt, one of the best on line coaches. Just the right amount of important information well communicated and explained. there are a lot with plenty of subject knowledge, making it understandable is a real valuable skill.
Thanks, Patrick!
I always wondered why my take away was great but would get flat halfway back. Now I know! Great video!
Thanks, Joshua!
Eric, took this lesson to the golf course today and played one of the best rounds this summer. It the ball straight and on target. Thanks so much!
Love it! Happy to hear that!
Thank you! This is just the reminder I need in regards to my left elbow.
Hope it helps, Duane!
Best golf instructor in you tube.i have often wondered why my iron swing was so lousy despite having many lessons and watching thousands
Of you tube videos in search for the secret.Many thanks Eric for this wonderful lesson.God Bless You
Appreciate that and appreciate you Virendra!
Check out todays video...same topic...could help!
I taught this technique as a 40 year golf coach for many years ⛳️.
Excellent!
This is the best advise I have ever got, it has turned my game around. Never been able to break 90 and went out and shot 88. Never heard of elbow placement from any other coach. Great job. Thank you again.
Thanks, Kyle! Happy to hear that!
Great tip your talent is pointing out movements other do not worry about and that is why it is harder to improve all the best
Thanks, Stuart!
Been working on this for a little over a month with my golf pro. Absolutely game changing for me. Thanks for the video. You are one of the best.
Excellent!
Thanks, Jeffery!
Great swing and great instruction. This is one of the things I am struggling with in my swing.
Thanks, Jason!
All I'm struggling with is backswing, transition and downswing. If I get those things nailed, I'll be good haha
This seriously is the key if you have a flat backswing. I’ve spent more years than you can imagine playing golf from the inside or flat. My misses have been hooks or pull hooks. My son is a good golfer but unfortunately he has developed a similar inside takeaway and delivery shallow back to the ball … after watching this I went outside and literally just focused on my left arm especially my elbow and where you suggested to have it mostly be pointed during my backswing … Shazam I’m on plane NOT inside and hitting 60 yard shots dead on line and I loved the flight of the ball ! Everyone should understand this it stops you from focusing on your hands etc which just messed me up for all of these years !! Thank you 🙏 so much I hope my son will watch this video and really apply this minor change to his left arm/elbow in his backswing 🙏🇺🇸❤️
Love to hear this one helped, Jason!👊
Been struggling with my backswing and an out of control transition. Love this thought and will try it on the range soon. I was a beginner golfer 20 years ago at age 33, got down to a 3, but have lost all feel for the swing and I focus too much on my backswing DURING the swing, Now I'm a hack with a rising handicap of 15. I need help!
Hope you get it sorted, Bob! If not check out Cogornogolf.com ...we can help!!
Hey Bob, just saw this comment now and I could really relate to it. I am now watching my club go back during the backswing almost to make sure it’s where it needs to be. Very bad habit and it feels very hard to stop watching the club as it goes back. How have you gotten through this?
Eric, You really are a great golf teacher, very clear and repetitive on the important points to drive them home. Great, thanks!
Thanks, Andrew!
Great tip, I have been struggling with my back swing and this makes sense.
Hope it helps, Rodney!
Just took up golf a year ago, handicap is around 14 at the moment. Backswing is my biggest struggle, open club face and struggle to close it at impact. This video is makes it soooo clear, cannot wait to get to the range.
Thanks so much!!!!
Hey Jerrett!
Keep on it....fixing open face should be EASY. Just have to find out exactly WHY it's open. Find a good coach....14 handicap after 1 year is great....push to scratch!
Such quality content! A great nugget.
Thanks, Tim!
I have never trained this lesson, just watched the video this morning went ou to play 9 holes, used this advice, and hit every tee shot straight on the fairway. Did not work with the Irons as good as with the long wood´s and the Driver ... that was the best advice i ever got on a RUclips Chanel ...
Glad to hear that my friend!
Eric, I have never hit the ball better at the range... Holy Crap... Thank you so much for the tip...
Glad to hear that, Bob! Our pleasure!
I was having some swing trouble before state and this helped so much! Got me to shoot 68/71 and come in second! Thank you!
That's some GREAT playing!! Nice work!
Would you suggest starting this drill hitting all shots towards 100 yards? I feel like this video was specific to me because of my limited rotation on my left arm. Thanks Eric!!
For sure short club and slow to start...use video to confirm or deny what you're doing and adjust accordingly
This fixes about 80% of my problems, steep down swing, outside-in path...etc. gotta be the most useful lesson on youtube, thanks a ton!
Love to hear that! Thanks for watching!!
Great Tip . Thanks for sharing.
I was struggling last few rounds with some of my swing changes, this tip straightaway assisted me with my swing 👍🏼
MY pleasure my friend!
Such a great amplified feel following your technique Eric; as you said, it is almost impossible to miss the vertical swing plain. great stuff dude.
Thank you! Hope this one helps my friend!
This could be the most important video ever released on RUclips ever
:)
lol
Been playing for nearly a decade and fighting a shallow takeaway and over the top move the entire time. Tried this today and for the very time I was puring my irons. Ball first then divot, inside out path, making the "whoosh" you hear the pros making - the whole thing. I cannot believe one tip solved my path issues. I've got the bug again. Thanks man.
Love it, Garret! you got it!
Hogan talked about elbows pointed in/down at setup but he never explained WHY. Thanks!
Yessir!
And I wonder why not many on tour set the right elbow a tad closer to the body than the left elbow like Mr Hogan nowadays. I think Hogan's setup and alignment procedure is the best imho.
Hulkster said that? I'm in, brother!!
This could be the best backswing video I've ever seen.....THANKYOU.
:)
Actually took this tip to the course and it worked. Amazing results thanks again and keep up the good work thank you for the tips
Love to hear that, Paul!
This is the best explanation I've ever heard for getting the backswing on plane. Have struggled for so long with rolling the wrists and getting too flat on the take away and as a result getting too steep on the downswing.
Thanks Rob! Hope this one serves you well!
Wish I would have seen this explanation about 20years ago!!
:)
Are you me? Haha… 1000% agree…
Eric, I used this today on the course and shot 75. Extremely windy conditions but covering the ball with this method. Great work and love your relaxed style. I'm a 5 handicap and have a flat swing and shallow it enough to score and shoot under 80 everytime. This method should get me to even or under as long as the flat stick produces. Keep it up!
Thanks, Andrew! Glad to head that my friend!
Great Video! Does the left elbow work the same with the driver?
Thanks! Yup
This dude makes golf tips simple and clear 🎉
Thank you!
Perfectly explained. Now for the next question..... what about the right elbow?
Good question...maybe a future video!
Was thinking the same lol, i'm guessing it would be basically the same thing.
Vince , was watching the Northern Trust and noticed Louie Oosthuizen does it noticeably w/ his right hand & arm b-4 putting his hand on the grip.He did a vid. on that! You'd have to google it. Not sure it's necessary w/ the right? John
@@johnharrington6122 Thanks!!
This is the greatest golf related video i have ever seen and ive watched thousands. Hats off Eric!
Thanks, Brandon! Appreciate it!!
