I think the key is to feel like you’re accelerating up through the swing instead of accelerating down into the ball. When you accelerate down you release your wrist hinge early and cast. This makes a wider arc so you have to stand up and early extend or else hit it fat. By holding your hinge and accelerating upwards you have a shorter arc and can stay down.
I'm a 61-year old over swinger, and that practice drill and swing work wonders for me when I remember to do it on the course, which isn't often enough.
Amen to that
When I went to Golf school, they taught us to work on a half swing. I still use it now 20 years later warming up and getting a good feel from my irons.
Great drill! I have been getting lazy and have been dragging the club after impact and not get through the shot. Been working on this with full swings and sometimes its hard to feel it. This after impact drill really helps me focus on the movement.
Eric C is awesome! I watched the same video and I believe he credited JChown golf for this, which is another must follow channel.
I will check him out as well thxs
👍👍Very good tip. The most diffecult thing is to find the discipline to practice and practice and sofort.
Great video Andy! Made me jump up grab my 7 and go out in the yard a do some practice swings!
beauty. i watched this initially on EC's channel. it's great and a good reminder to use it between range and play.
Thank you , Eric's a good dude, i dont know any golf instructor that has traveled the country and sharing his knowledge and the other instructors knowledge then Eric ,he has been everywhere and has a very good catalog of golf instruction check it out,, he's been relentless seeking out information on how to help us get better at golf, very very hard worker!! Thank you again for Tip big fan at taking away as much as my backswing as i can ,ive been fighting to make my backswing much easier and over the line for a long time , the mind can definitely learn if you give it a task, this exercise with the proper lower body separation is key !!
Love it . I learned something like this about 20 years ago . The teacher had me swing down slowly in transition to just past hip high with my right elbow in front of my right pocket . Once I got there .. I could swing full . Was such an odd feel . But gained tons of accuracy and about 10-15 more yards off the tee with a low running draw as my stock ball flight.
Very interested in trying this drill. Thanks for this!
So simple and yet so useful, bravo Andy.
I gained 20yds per club just by someone telling me to feel like I stop 3/4 of the way to start my downswing, it’s so weird but forcing the stop at 3/4 created lag I never had with a full swing and I just started crushing the ball while swing at the same speed.
It’s about feels, as you can see in the video i swing 3/4 when I think it’s a half swing, doesn’t matter it shortened the swing and works 👍
Cogorno is a favorite of mine and highly respected by the pro I go to. He is one of those I suggested when you asked your viewers to send you names. Had not seen this particular drill but will definitely try it. For sure I have lost speed and distance with age and it would be great to get another 5 or maybe 10 yards back. Craig Hanson is another favorite who also does drills to get your weight shifted to the left and uses a vertical line drawn at address to show that pros move 4 to 6 inches left while keeping the head back.
An interesting lesson tip. It does make sense. I had hear of Eric, he has good ideas. He's a USA coach. Thanks, good job presenting the idea. As an older golfer now (67) always on the hunt for things that can bring back some distance.
Eric has recently done the Swing Hard Stop Quick video (as a great refresher of the Rob Cheney video which was where I first saw it, some years ago) - one of the best drills IMO.
Some different ideas will try this, thanks
Have you seen any Tom Saguto tips
Crispy
There is golf before Saguto and golf after Saguto…
Yes
@@nicmurphy3709😅👍🤘🏌️
Saguto is the only coach you should pay attention to
cant wait to try that Andy, looks great, hopefully the results will be good too
Looks like it is reducing your over the top move a bit too And. Swinging more from inside will send the ball right, so once you get control of the face you could easily pick up 10-15 yards with this. Good luck mate!
This reminds me of the “clock method” I use with my wedges. I wonder how effective this would be if I used my weighted club? I’ll try it for sure. Thanks Andy
I saw that video of Eric's a few weeks ago. He's got a lot of other good videos and does a very good job of explaining what he's teaching.
Thanks for that drill, Andy. I’ll be trying that on the range.
Amazing drill for crispy contact, yes Erics golf tips are great but also check out pga instructors Jess Frank & Tom Saguto honesty both will change your golfing life forever, guaranteed!
I will take a look thxs
I have watchedafew of his videos and I agree, he has some good ideas and tips to help your swing.
Fan in the U.S. love the videos when will the store back in stock.
We can all grip too tight, sometimes just lifting the thumb off and making a swing can loosen and relax the grip. Give it a try. Nice one Andy and Eric 😊
I thought so - Lee Pen in the background is unmistakeable!! I live up the road in Peebles - if you fancy a few holes at Peebles Golf Club let me know!
I am not there right now Richard, I love Peebles GC
I saw this drill on Eric's channel the other day and have been using at the driving range and it has helped my distance. Like you I still have the problem leaking to the right.
Thanks for the hint. I've started playing golf again as a pensioner after 7 years and forgot almost everything. This gives me a framework to go back to if things don't work out as intended.
That is a drill worth trying.
Maybe, I'm missing something but I don't see the link to the original video.
Andy, this testing the tips is an absolute winner. I’ve used more of these recently than anything else - and the way you explain just makes sense 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Really pleased they are working for you, don’t forget to subscribe to the new channel which will have all the tip videos on moving forward 👍 ‘Testing the Tips’
Interesting. I am going to have to try this.
Going to give this one a try.
non golf question - where did you get your trousers? great channel btw
Great video. Thanks, Duane
Shawn Clement’s teaching is great also.
Excellent thank you!
Excellent drill. I have found shorter swing with good contract is better than long swing with poor contact.
Thats Jon Rahms swing! Thanks for sharing.
Eric is a cool dude, and has some great tips.
What a drill absolutely brilliant
Eric is brilliant. If I lived on the East coast in the US I'd go see him for a lesson or two.
He is on the east coast, he's in pennsylvania
I've seen this method from the English instructor of Sean Connery for Goldfinger long ago.
are you driving with your legs or upper body only or both
@TheAverageGolfer what were the lie angle and length of your mezz1 putter?
30 years ago I had a pro teach me this same basic drill, however instead of the push thru with no ball, we hit the ball, a 7 iron if you do it right carries 100 yards with a 1/4 swing - the general idea is was hit at 1/4 swing until you start hitting them well and consistent, this could be 2, 3, 10 buckets of balls, then move to half swing, until your hitting it the same over and over, then 3/4 and finally full. Now as I get older I'm very glad to have this method already drilled in my head, and when I get the shanks, I just dial things back to a half swing on the course and yep, good to go. Sure 10 yards less than a perfect full swing, But I'll take a perfect half swing and club up every day.
Watch out for Steve Johnston popping up in the background at Cardrona if you are back up this way!
Tried this today...what evil magic is this?? I did this one time before my real swing and im killing it!! With the driver, i start one foot behind the and do a upper swing just above the ball and have NEVER hit my Driver better!!!
I have limited flexability on the backswing. When I focus on shortening the backswing.. just past grnd ParalleI....i always get crisper strikes, distance and direction
I’ll have to try it. I’ve hit a gap wedge 170 yards…my gap wedge is my 150 yard club. My 9 iron 150 to 160, 8 iron 160 to 170, 7 iron 170 to 180 and my 6 iron 180 to almost 200. And before you call BS, I have multiple witnesses that cuss me every time I do it because I’m constantly 2 clubs down from them. It’s from baseball…I have fast hands
Where did you film this video? It looks very familiar!
Cardrona in Peebles, Scotland
Good lesson
Worth a try
Andy, that has to be a great drill because it made even your swing look better. Imagine what it would do to us "high handicappers"...
where's the link to eric's video?
Any drill to improve driver skill
This could be very timely for me, I’ve just had my right knee replaced and the couple of 6 hole outings have revealed a huge loss in length and accuracy
I'm in the same club
Where did you film this video?
Cardrona in Scotland
Hey @TheAverageGolfer
Great video!
It’s super underrated how well you dress, I don’t know if you’d be interested but I think an Andy’s wardrobe / Andy teaches golf fashion could be a really interesting youtube video
Eric Cogorno is one of the best instructors out there!
Possibly the best drill I’ve seen for a while
Glad you enjoyed
I can get about about a buck 65 out of my 7. 225 off the tee with my 13 deg. Don’t carry the D club anymore. But at 70 shot my age a month ago. I’m content.
Exelente entrenamiento
hands at contact should be middle of the left leg. This lowers the loft by 5 degrees. That's the only reason why. many call this compression but really it's just lowering the club loft.
I wish you would show us what your shot was like before trying the tip so we can see the before and after.
There are over 1000 videos of my swing on the channel ???
Andy, were you going to post Eric's video?
Does this work with hybrids, woods and driver too ?
I have a follow up video that answers that question, in brief…yes !
Great!
Have you posted it yet ?
You say you’re only going back to “waist height,” but you’re going farther back than I do in my full swing. You’re practically past vertical!
Great drill… at 59 I see I’m loosing distance, definitely going to try this.
Good luck mate
Pure Tom Saguto, the best teacher on the net.
That sweater is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Seems like it is drilling the proper sequence of transitioning to the target side of the ball.
In the second step you once again said get to the top of the back swing as fast as possible when you meant to say the (photo) finish.
Try this week it help, I hit 3 wood further than my group with their driver. It my irons better.
It works
Eric got that Drill from Jchown golf
Are you at Cardona Golf Course?
Yes bud
now watched to the end _ you are!
I lose all my power by the time I get to impact as I keep starting my downswing with throwing away the angle straight away 😩 only swing around 77mph with a 7 at impact.
That's my problem. I don't have enough club head speed to use long irons so I use hybrids for longer distance. You don't need as much club head speed with hybrids and the ball goes quite far. I only use 7-9, PW, A, wedges for irons. But I'm gonna try this drill and see if I can add my 5 and 6 irons to my list of clubs I can use.
You think you were doing a swing to waist height, but you were really doing a 3/4 swing. Feeling you're only doing a half swing and 'punching the ball' is a great way for solid contact and some compression.
Yes I did mention that in the video, feel v real
Is often very different 👍
@@TheAverageGolfer It's a great tactic too. I hit further with irons doing what I feel is a 'half swing' than I do with a full swing trying to leather it.
When did your waist go over your shoulder?
Probably about the same time you reached puberty which judging by the comment was a few days ago?
You should play peebles golf club it’s a little gem of a course
I’ve played it, lovely place,
The pro there is a cool guy!
PW43 = 170yds, 7i = 190yds carry
I like the video but it’s funny the video advertised 180 yard 7 iron but you had a six iron in your hand
Not from the tee, I hit six iron from the fairway 👍
Watched his video already and it works
Sure does
You still look a little too static.
for us 50+ it is hard to get movement, but its a good point, maybe streching helps!!
You’re doing the drill wrong. The shaft should start from a position much more parallel to the ground. Your ab muscles should feel sore after a few swings. Look up Pelvic Punch drill, that is essentially what Eric is showing. Your just doing a 9-3 drill, which is a good drill but not what Eric was teaching in that video.
How about some numbers? If you don't have a device even telling us you're actual before and after numbers?
Your hands can't keep up with your new impact speed. lol. They will. I'm definitely going to use this.
Yes needs practice
The only key is to swing the club correctly.
I can’t stand watching or listening to Eric. He dissects everything so much he makes everything too complicated and gives you too many swing thoughts. I will take your simple interpretation of what he says any day of the year! Great job explaining and showing this! 😊
If so long why demonstrating from red teas ?
Its 'tees' 👍🏻
Eric Cogorno
Without proper stance all the power you apply will hurt you and not help at all.
Lower back and your hip
You have to know how to use your mid section of the body to generate power. 😂
Fast and furious is all in this part of your body.
No, not at all. I carry my 7-iron about one 180 to 185
Stand a bit closer.
Not actually possible to hit ball with NO backswing!
Farther not further
