    This might be the best golf instruction I've seen on internet. It's the easiest way I've seen to get you to the top position with a flat wrist I've ever tried. I was getting there in a much more complicated way. This is much easier. It also sets you in a solid position for the downswing -- not over turning the shoulders or hips. Nice job, Eric. You may want to clarify the part where you stick an alignment tool at the end of the club, though. That makes it easy to turn with the club instead of pushing the hands and club through the body area. I used to do that very thing for the longest time thinking I was making a one piece takeaway.

    Struggled for several seasons to find the correct positions in the backswing, gone to several coaches, but none of them gave me the right keys, and saying stuff like I think too much. Then Ive seen your vids this season and 2 months ago it became clear what I was doing wrong, from a vid in which you described this steps in a slightly different form. Playing so much better golf now and broke 80 five times before my course closed a few weeks ago. Excellent instruction on this channel!

    Finally someone takes the guesswork out of knowing if you’re properly executing each step of the takeaway /backswing!!!!! I have struggled and been preoccupied with this forever. I took this to the range today and saw immediate improvement when I just executed the first takeaway move correctly. It’s such a simple concept but very difficult to execute if you’ve not been doing it. I find it’s progressively harder as you move to longer clubs however! This takeaway move also greatly improved consistency in my chipping and pitching !! Thanks for providing such clear instruction in my mind the most critical part of the golf swing.

  • @danvandermeulen9337
    @danvandermeulen9337 4 года назад +1

    Great tip! I went to the range today and focused on that very first part of the backswing and keeping the butt end of the club towards my right leg instead of hinging my wrist too early, and was really flushing the ball a lot better. Also trying to work in the lesson of more rotation before extension, but more on that later....Not sure why the delayed wrist hinge works since I see several pros hinge early, but it works. Great stuff, Eric.

  • @breakthrough8628
    @breakthrough8628 2 года назад +1

    Thanks Eric! For the break down. What are you thoughts on a one piece takeaway into a simple slinging of the club back to the top so one can feel the centrifugal force of the pull of the club through the backswing and naturally transitioning that force via your lower body rotation into the downswing and continue to feel the centrifugal force through the downswing for the whip release to occur?

    • @CogornoGolf
      @CogornoGolf  2 года назад

      Hey! Yes--I like that as a concept SO LONG as it produces the correct motions

    @andrewferguson1013 4 года назад +2

    Great video Eric, thank you!! I'm someone who immediately takes the club back on the inside, causing a whole host of problems, eg OTP, shanking, very flat backswing! My question is therefore how long might it take your advice to become natural? I know everyone is different, etc etc, but trying to get a feel of how long this might take to be engrained? I play twice a week usually, weekends, and one big range session every Friday..
    Cheers
    Andrew

    • @CogornoGolf
      @CogornoGolf  4 года назад +1

      Hey Andrew!
      1 month for it to look good on camera all the time...maybe 3-6 months of little thought on course. 6+ months until little to no thought required.
      That time table goes for someone who is working on it 3-5 days per week
      At your rate of one range session per week I would assume 1 entire year
      If you should UP your frequency and lessen the reps per session. 20-30 reps (even at home) with foam or waffle ball 3-4 times per week would be great

    @tombaron4208 Год назад +1

    Thanks Eric, I really appreciate your videos. Question on the second checkpoint, do you make a conscious attempt to set your wrists, or are you just letting your hands move naturally? Also, how do you know when you have reached the top of the backswing? It is so easy to overswing 🙂 Thanks! -Tom

    • @CogornoGolf
      @CogornoGolf  Год назад

      Hey Tom!
      Thanks for being here with us!
      Whether or not a golfer is consciously thinking about a mechanical piece in their swing is very player dependent...it depends on where they are coming from and what they're specifically working on with their coach. It's really just a matter of finding your biggest 1-2 priorities and what checkpoints go along with those priorities, and then checking your swing on video to see if you hit those checkpoints in motion.
      Here are a couple of videos you may enjoy watching!

    • @CogornoGolf
      @CogornoGolf  4 года назад

      Hey Paul.
      Yes that is bad....IF.....it makes the clubface to open and/or makes your downswing too over the top (those are likely outcomes of rolling your hands early)

      If you face is too OPEN or you struggle with shots to the right....then you prob should.
      If you hit hooks to the left....then probably not.
