This is a great addition to the "swing arms freely" video - Eric, I think with this info I can reform my driver swing! Thanks for explaining this clearly!
Our pleasure! Hope it helps your game!
9:40: THIS. This is what has been plaguing me with both my driver and my fairway woods. I can get the takeaway started, but there's always a point where I don't know what to do next. When should I start hinging? When should I start tucking my trail elbow? I've been doing both way too soon, and it's been wrecking my downswing. It was so nice to see this broken down. I've got a much better understanding of sequencing now. Thank you so much!
Yes! Excellent----my pleasure! Hope this serves you well
Very informative and presented very well. I understand the irons are different as to hitting down as opposed to up but can the extension concept and shoulder motion apply to irons as well?
Thank you! Yes....same FEELS can work for all clubs. It wont actually get as wide as the clubs get shorter but the FEELs can stay similar!
Eric this is a tremendous addition to the to the prior video, which Ihave been working during my practice sessions. So, thank you so much! if I my be so bold as to suggest that the logical progression of these videos is to take it to the irons, say 5 through 9!
Again, these have helped me a ton already!
Thank you! We have an iron version of this video coming within next week or two :)
Great video! I find the most success with my driver when I exaggerate reaching the club head as far away as I can in the takeaway. Also, the 90 degree shoulder rotation and 45 degree lower body/hip rotation has helped me astronomically. Appreciate all you do!
Love it Alex! Thank you!
Eric. 3 of your videos have transformed my game. Left arm release drill, same drill for irons ... and now this one. Distance and consistency have been amazing. 1/2 to 1 club on irons and 25 - 30 yards with driver. My balance and correct follow thru is a bonus.
There are many online golf gurus, but their videos are band-aids. It is impossible to fix the result without correcting the cause. Your videos are comprehensive, discussing causes and subsequent results.
My misses are slight pulls to the left. Maybe trail shoulder needs to be slightly lower, or trail hand releasing to soon, or slow to rotate in downswing.
The miss left is 5 yds on mid irons and 10 yds with driver. Acceptable but correctable with some more range time.
I'm 72 years old, knee replacement, separated shoulder. Your videos have resulted in 160 yd 7I, 245 carry, 260+ with driver.
Thanks, I'm glad I found you online.
Love it Stephen!! Great to have you here with us---Really appreciate those kind words and support!
This is a great video for me to watch since I’ve been having issues with my driver! Great job Eric!
Thank you!
Awesome, Eric! Thanks for posting the details. Your explanation makes it very easy to follow.
Glad to hear it, Susan! Appreciate you watching!
I just saw one of Nick Faldo's career highlights.
A lesson with Eric Cogorno. AKA Ecka the Wrecka.
So proud of you Eric, you genuinely deserve to be in the room with the best.
Thank you! Really appreciate that :)
Thanks Eric, if I can say when I practiced on getting my shoulder plane correct, it corrected so many other aspects to the golf swing, I couldn't believe my swing thoughts for me were that simple, do we need other things correct for a proper swing, of course, but for me the correct shoulder plane, is so simple to understand, it's repeatable, and it help to get my side bends correct also,its amazing what 1 proper action can do for a golf swing, great breakdown and great examples used so it's easy to understand.
Love it! Thank you!!
So, I went out on Saturday to play golf and tried this drill and swing thought during the round. Hit my driver much better than usual. Sometimes left (mostly), sometimes right and once in a while straight down the middle. Got a few comments from my playing partners how much better I was driving it. The combination thought of club head far away and lead shoulder down seemed to be especially effective.
Thanks for the tip, hope I can keep remembering it and adding to it.
Our pleasure! Hope it continues to help your game!
Great lesson Eric. This will absolutely help regain most of my distance.
Thank you! Hope it serves you well :)
Used the tips from your last driver video and instantly had improvements. I went from a big cut/slice to either a straight ball or smaller cut in about 2 range sessions. Slowly and surely it will come!
Love to hear this!
Great Eric, this easy drill with clear explanation makes me feel like if I go to practice right now to the driving range ,I will improve. That's all I want to get better .thank you very much, coach and friend. Anyone help me... is my friend.
Thanks Oscar!!
I used the first video a few weeks ago. Went to the range yesterday and was straight, not as right, and i was actually getting that ping on contact. Thanks for these videos man!!
Great to hear, Martin! Our pleasure!
Very nice illustration Eric .Great job n keep up the good work going..Best wishes 👍
Thank you!!
Great drill Eric ..I have a few problems with driver ..can’t wait to hit the range ..thanks
Thanks Edward---hope this one helps ya!!
A++ Eric! I needed this!
Thanks! Hope it helps!
Eric: I would like to thank you for this video! I have struggled for years off the tee.
I hit about 20 balls using arms straight back and straight follow through. Then adding wrist hinge just above parallel to ground.
Hitting it long and straight.
When going above this point in back swing started pulling it.
Probably do to over top move.
Thanks!!!
You got it Chris! Hope this one serves you well!!
I did all of these things to try and improve my driver swing and none of it worked, UNTIL I changed my transition. I wasn't ab;e to get any consistency with my drive until I learned to relax at the top and let the club and my arms fall before tried to create speed. I would get to the top and grip it hard and straight up muscle the club through impact. Of course that doesn't work. Nothing was in sync. I instantly doubled my good drives more accuracy and more distance.
Love it!
I watched this video and tried the drill. I hit 5 drives longer than I have ever hit the ball. Great drill 😮, I was amazed…. 20 yards longer…. Thanks 😊
Love to hear it Roger!!
Hi Eric - Great video as usual 👍 Hopeless at the mo’ with Driver. Had lesson last week here in London, was told need to be much taller from spine and Torso which obviously brings me nearer to the ball. Feels weird, because I’ve obviously been standing too far away ! Anyway, did start hitting the ball a lot better. Will build in your training with what my instructor has told me next time over range. Here’s to 320 yards carry -ok, maybe knock 100 yards off that ! 🤣 All the best, Ken.
:) Thanks Ken! Hope this one helps!!
This helped me with my driver so much!!!!
Love to hear it, Ryan!
I'm sure you have done it in the past, but I'd like to see you do a range practice session. So many times I go to a range and just beat balls. But it just doesn't seem to be helping my game. last couple of weeks I've been trying to practice with propose. Love to see a practice routine putting chipping and full shots. Thanks for all the content love watching
Appreciate it Keith!!
Took this to the range today and was hitting so straight. Was helping me keep my arms ‘long’ at impact.
Great to hear this one helped!
Excellent, Eric!!!
Thanks Bob!
I had a great practice session today applying this instruction and feel.
Love this tip and the one before! I did notice that Rory does not bring the right shoulder through as much as you do.
Agreed---I was exaggerating a bit too much there for visual effect
Great swing thought, thank you! Word of caution too though-both Eric and Rory shift weight into left side early at the top so the club falls into the “slot” thereby staying “connected” right elbow touching side at impact then extending through impact. Hogan. Thanks again!
Thanks David!!
Great video. Do these concepts apply to all clubs with the main diff being ball position?
Thank you! Yes same concepts---main difference with clubs is the angle of attack. More level to up with driver....more down as clubs get shorter......
Hey Eric. Love your lessons. Can you explain what you mean by “ hip high”. Are you talking about where the hands go through? Please clarify if you have a chance to do so. Thank you!
Sorry. Just watched again. Hands hip high on back swing then add the depth. Thx!!
Hey Kenny! Yes thats right---roughly hands hip high (really just a FEEL)....may go a touch longer
Hi Eric, Great video! Thank you. Compliments the previous driver video beautifully.
Can you give me a tip or two to stop the upper body lurching forward on the through swing. My back swing is ok but on the downswing throwing the club through the right side of my upper body lurches forward. Help!
Yes!!!!! I have a hard time with charging the ball when I hit driver. I have been almost feeling like I lean back when I hit driver lately. I know backing up off the ball is a cardinal sin, but I haven't lost any distance. In fact, I've gained it. So the feeling like I'm backing off the ball at impact is probably not reality. I'm probably just not sliding my upper body forward to smother hook the ball like I usual. I would also like to see some tips about properly staying behind the ball. The feeling like you're chopping a tree is good in concept (you don't lean your upper body past the trunk when you chop a tree), but I just can't seem to visualize that when I actually hit a ball.
Thanks!!
I would add an object over my left shoulder that I need to keep my head back of and learn to let the arms sling off your body as your head stays back.
Very much like this last driver video here:

@@CogornoGolfthanks Eric for taking the time to answer my question in detail. I really appreciate your dedication to your “ students”. Keep making these great instructive videos!
well explained
thank you!
awesome video as always. I assume a wide swing applies to driver,woods and irons?
Thanks Mark!
Wide to wide always good for sure.....but when the ball is on a tee and we want the angle of attack of the club level or slightly up.....it's MOST important
Eric, do you have any videos on peeling the chin off of the lead shoulder in the downswing? I've watched some on you're arm under chin but I'd like to see one about if there's anything you can work on to peel it off in the downswing. Thanks
Hey! I believe we do somewhere in there---I'll link if I can find it!
In this video it would have been appropriate to refer to your earlier lesson concerning connection of the lead arm above the left pec, and connection of the right elbow to the right hip in the downswing.
Thanks for the feedback Robert! Hope this one helps!
Do you also hit your irons like you do driver? Meaning swinging from inside and try hitting the inside of golf ball
Hey James! In terms of club path.....yes.
Always want to club head arcing to the ball from inside......then hit the ball.....then back inside to left.
Main difference with the shorter vs longer clubs is the angle of attack its coming in on (think airplane landing). More down with irons, less down/more up with driver
Can I use this for 7 iron, back swing both arms extended, wide arc?
Yes....same FEELS can work for all clubs. It wont actually get as wide as the clubs get shorter but the FEELs can stay similar👍
Rory at the beginning of his downsizing seem to crouch a little bit and release....is it necessary ?
I meant ' downswing'
Hey Kushal,
It's an important piece for producing power...I go through some of the details here!

Love virtually all of your sessions Eric but you've confused me a little when you mention weight movement to your right foot. Is it a feeling to your right heel or entire right foot. I try to maintain a 60% load on the left foot. How should I understand this. As always, appreciate your work. Be good-Russ
Thanks Russ! Sorry for any confusion.
I feel about 50.50 at setup
Pressure into trail foot from setup to takeaway say about 60-70% Im feeling that in the whole foot really and then more to heel from takeaway to top
Hope that helps
Hi Eric-Much appreciate your thoughtful response to my question. You ALWAYS do a great job and I'm sure the entire golfing community thanks you. Stay well-Russ
👏👍👏👏
Thank you!!
@ 3:25 he's explaining " no shoulder, no width " but if you look at his demonstration when he's showing no shoulder, it's actually because he's not pushing the right hip back at all. When he shows shoulder = width , he's pushing the right hip back like you should. Ofcourse you can't turn to get any width if you leave your hips at address position. Incorrect explanation in my opinion
isn't it about combining the shoulder move and the hip move? I think Eric would say that is the movement needed.
He may be just having you focus on the shoulder in this lesson and assuming that you are also going to pivot your hips or push the right hip back. I kind of do the same move where I start the downswing with my right shoulder, and the hips just go with it. I do this because I'm very right side dominant, and I'll tend to roll the club inside and get stuck if I pull back with my right side rather than push back with my lead side.
Edit: I mean that I start my backswing by pushing back with my lead shoulder rather than pulling back with my trail side, and my hips just kind of follow. Not starting the downswing with my trail shoulder. I don't know where that came from :)
:)
i had my 1 in person with ya a few yrs ago in Bethlehem . any time i get a little "off" i go back the the simple drill ya gave me.. go right back to hitting it pretty nice. Absolutely killing my driver at 47 yrs old and man ohhhh man.. I cant hit a green from 80-110 with a wedge right now!! lol I hit it pin high but like a little push 10ish yards right.. what a game i tell ya
:) Love to hear of the solid driver!
Took this tool to the course yesterday and drastically reduced my spin with furthered distance, still missed a few off right fairway but with time and practice this is going to be a game changer 🫡🙏🏽
Love it Frank!
