Thank you for the great videos Eric.... very well done 👍
Thank you very much!
Eric, I really appreciate your lessons. I finally understood what you were trying to teach. Once again. Thank you v.much.
My pleasure---I appreciate that :)
So helpful Eric, thank you
Glad to hear it, Brian! Our pleasure!
One of the most detailed and in depth drills I have seen to help me with “shallowing” the club. I have always struggled in being able to do it consistently. I have been doing these drills the last few days for many hours and it’s like a light bulb went off!! Coming from a single digit handicap I have never had an ahaa moment like I did today. The lessons you give on here are extremely helpful. Your recommendations on always videoing your swing is also a must as much as I hate to see my swing. Feel vs real is absolutely 2 different things.
So glad to hear the videos are helping, Stan!👊
Great instruction Eric. Exactly what I need to work on in my swing. Thnx a lot!
Thanks Miro! You got it!
This is a great video!!! I've been struggling with the downswing forever. I watched this video and went to the range.... big difference! Thank you!
Thanks! Glad this one helped!!
Great video. Thank you.
Cheers
Thank you Peter!
this is super helpful. thank you korea
Glad this one was helpful! Appreciate you watching!
This is a monster of a video! Great info here.
Thanks! Hope it helps your game!
What a fabulous lesson. Thanks so much.
Appreciate it John!
Excellent lesson! Thank you!
Thank you!
Adjusting grip from neutral to strong helped me find this move. Also helped limit backswing and keep both arms closer together. Following arm is much more active. Ball striking is now solid with good consistent distance. This video is truly helpful. Many thanks.
Love it
This video is fantastic. Thank you for this!
Thank you! Our pleasure!
Great tips Eric. You've really helped my ball striking and eliminated my early extension.
Appreciate it Mark!
Excellent instruction as always.
Appreciate it!
Thanks Eric, the best tutorial I have seen in explaining the right arm/elbow function in the golf swing. For those like me who tend to get a bit steep on the downswing it is not an easy exercise, but hopefully with some practice it will encourage a shallower swing path and better ball contact.
Appreciate that---hope it guides you well!
@rayrapp8929, here's a few things you don't know: 1) Eric is spot-on for 7,8,9, & all the wedges except the sand wedge, 2) You can guarantee yourself an inside out & on-plane swing with the short irons if you set up with your right elbow pointing toward the ground instead of away from the target, & 3) Because you will have a shallower, inside out swing, you must pull your hands & arms back away from the ball just before you start the downswing so you load the shoulders for power.
Thanks, I'll give that a try as well@@chestermicek
This is what I have been looking for ,for years. Thank you Eric ⭐️
Our pleasure, Martin! Hope it helps!
This was fantastic. My trail arm has been destroying my golf swing for years. This video provided insight that helped improve both my right and left arm action during this critical part of the swing.
Glad this one was helpful my friend! Thanks for watching!
Great lesson, this makes sence !! I know this is an important move in the swing
Thank you!
Thanks Eric, this is precisely what I need.
Hope it helps, Jim!
Been working on this, Eric. For sure got me un-stuck. As I was opening hips too soon. A big help was keeping my butt back and feeling lead shoulder and chin separation. The pump drill was also helpful. When sequenced correctly with right side bend and extension through impact all I can say is WOW.
Yessir!
I just watched the video again and practiced again, this video is a game changer! Thanks Eric! Maybe you can look into doing a future video regarding the sequence of the back swing. Thanks
Love it!! Thanks!
Excellent video! you are a really really good visual teacher! I'm hooked!
Thank you!👊
Tried this today, what a great feeling! I’ve been feeling like my right arm is sliding across too early. The idea of pushing the right elbow toward the left is perfect. Thanks. Also it’s great to see the South Mountain off in the distance! Hope to get back to the Valley in August.
Love to hear that Mike! Yessir---getting out of the Florida heat for a bit this summer is nice :) Hope you are well
Trevor Salzman (Golf Live) just posted something similar on how the trail arm should move. Great stuff Eric! And, I think your detailed instructions are needed.
Trevor is awesome! Glad you enjoyed this one my friend!
This is gold man, thanks a lot!
Thank you!
Exactly my problem!! Thank you so much!! I can't understand how the right arms work!! The biceps going across the pect does it for me!1 THANK YOU!!!
Glad this one helped!
Thanks again for this. Viewed it again and applied it during a practice session at the PGA Superstore in Rockville, Maryland where I can use their practice bays with Foresight GC Hawk launch monitors. Before swinging I did your trail arm adduction plus external rotation of the trail elbow, plus getting the right wrist in extension, then leaning forward over the ball and simply turning back to feel where I wanted my arm structure to be on the backswing. Have worked on this based on other videos by you and others, but this one was sharply focused and very helpful. Of course, I need to focus on some other essentials that you and others have dealt with in other videos, such as the critical need to shift weight on to the lead leg/foot in order to make a proper rotation of the hips and body (you show this very clearly in your own motion), and also the need to brace the trail leg firmly on the backswing to avoid swaying, turning the trail hip back, and being sure to make a full turn back of the shoulders. But thanks for this. It really helped me make better contact and increase carry distance.
Love to hear that John....sounds like you are on the right track!
Excellent instruction. I've alway hit it a long way but always early released and could never get much forward shaft lean even after trying various things (ex. trying to hit punch shots). Getting the right elbow forward/leading the wrists is the key.
Thanks Mark!!
So good. When I make the best contact it is when I feel a right side crunch with my torso and my right elbow. Great video.
Yes! Good ones David those are KEY
Love your tempo and smoothness. Nice and easy. This is what amateurs need to strive for.
Thanks Jason!👊
@cogornogolf do you have a video on your tempo?
@cogornogolf I think JT Thomas’s rib sway move would also help here.
One of the clearest explanations of the right elbow move ever made . Congratulations !!
Let me add two additional points .
The more external the right shoulder is at top ( waiters tray position ) , the less the need for external shoulder rotation in transition ; the more internal the right shoulder at the top ( flying right elbow ) the greater the need for right shoulder external rotation in transition .So in a real sense , the backswing is a major factor in the right elbow move .
Second , right shoulder external rotation in early transition means that the right ELBOW will move FASTER than the HANDS and cover more distance than the hands during early transition .
thanks Dave! Good ones
Hello Eric! Great stuff like always. I hope you're doing well and keep up the good work.
Thank you AJ! Appreciate your support!
Excellent video. Great explanation
Thanks Jacob!
Great advice, Eric I have been trying to great more leverage with my hands in the backswing but have been missing something. It felt unnatural and loose. After watching your videos, I tried to move my trail bicep closer to my chest muscle, this allowed me to hold the lag, keep the trail elbow in from of the trail wrist and natural release the club with no effort. Keep up the great videos!
Glad the videos have helped my friend! Thanks for your support!
Very helpful. Thanks 🙌
Our pleasure!
Eric, thank you for explaining how to do this. I saw another golf instructor talk about this a week ago…and while it did help, I still wasn’t able to get the shaft lean (the shaft was 90 degrees to the ground at impact). Now that I know the two specific actions, I have no doubt this is going to enable me to get it right. Thanks again!
I have faith in ya John---hope this helps!
It helps to bring the elbows closer together when you address the ball, along with one of your past tips to have the inside of the right elbow facing away from the right hip. It is very easy to begin to forget the position of the right forearm at the top of the backswing, meaning you unconsciously begin to let your forearm go somewhat horizontal rather than vertical. That messes up the downswing. It helps to check your position at the top, to keep the right forearm quite vertical, and to remind yourself to keep the right wrist in extension, bent back so the palm faces up (back in old days teachers said to think of a waiter holding a tray overhead with that palm), and the left wrist in flexion or bowed. The pro I go to said in a recent lesson that in the downswing he wanted me to let my left shoulder definitely move up rather than moving horizontally around to the left. This allows one to bring the club down with the right elbow close to the right hip, as you show here, and then let the momentum you have generated bring your hands up high with a free flowing movement and release of the wrists. If concentrating on rotating makes you not only turn the hips but also the shoulders horizontally, your arms will extend early and you cannot get the swing movement you are demonstrating.

Absolute game changing video
Hope it serves you well my friend!👊
@@CogornoGolf already has. This has fixed my inconsistency, I was constantly “under” plane and COULD NOT figure it out, until this video. First time out after range work…74, with a birdie birdie finish, on what are typically “round wrecking finishing holes.
THANK YOU! For the "or you'll be shanking it" - this has been my number one miss hit ever since I started to get really compressed shots. It's basically that I have outpaced the body rotation.. It makes perfect sense now.
You got it :)
For me, my right elbow doesn't chicken wings out during the downswing as you demonstrate, but it straightens way too soon. Leads to inconsistent contact, because I have to time the low point exactly right or I either top it or fat it if my timing is off. All the drills and the feels to work on in this video are spot on for fixing this issue as well! Thanks for posting, I have some work to do.
Hope it helps ya Michael!
Great video. Exactly what I’m working on. Thanks
Thanks Steve!
Eric IMO the best thing that comes out of this video is by doing what you're suggesting it shallows the club and helps with the dreaded OTT 😀
For sure!!
This right side education is golden ✨️ 👌🏽
Hope it serves you well, Anthony!
Another excellent video!!
Appreciate it!
Actually a very good explanation, Eric. One of the best I´ve seen. Just as your other driver video about shallowing the driver. I started to work on this after I started 4 years ago with golf. But in my opinion it's not easy to just start with this, which i have tried before the wrong way as you perfectly explained her. That became the more "shoving" motion. First you have to have a certain level of a swing before you can work on this. Timing is so important, just as squaring the face and hitting the ball somewhere in the center of the face and not swaying. Step by step it takes a normal guy a good 3-4 years I would say to develop a somewhat decent swing that sticks.
Appreciate your kind words and thoughts, Gerard!👊
Fantastic
Thanks Rodney!
Great video. I was born in Bethlehem and lived in Easton PA for a while
:) Thank you!
Great video! 📹 🥇
Thanks Anthony!
Eric, I consciously tried getting the trail elbow closer to the lead elbow the day after viewing your video. Although I was not consistent it gave me more power. This without any practice! I don't know if I did the abduction part(didn't remember that partl). Anyway I felt the benefit. Thank you. PS: I did push a few but I think it was due to poor body rotation.
👊Glad this one helped, Ken!
good video ,,
Thank you!
Hi Eric, love this, thanks. Can I check with you - do you get the right shoulder forward with side bend?
Thanks Brian!
You get the right shoulder FORWARD from ROTATION
You get the right shoulder DOWN from SIDE BEND
The ROTATION and SIDE bend go together like peanut butter and jelly....do both at the same time roughly the same amount
Après pluisiers années de pratique, je commence à comprendre ce geste et à le réaliser avec la paume de la main droite tournée vers le haut au retour et aussi le coude droit qui reste collé au buste. Cela m'évite aussi de revenir par dessus avec des balles coupées. Donc c'est entrainement sur entrainement pour que le geste devienne naturel. Merci beaucoup Eric pour ton enseignement. J'espère que Google aura bien traduit mon français.
👊👊
Our pleasure my friend! Hope this one serves your game well!
@@CogornoGolf sure Eric !! Incredible feel when it’s work
Hi Eric great video should I have full extension of the right hand to inside the left thigh and can you comment on the left arm during this exercise thanks for your help kindly advise Jack
Hey JJ
Im not clear on exactly what you mean by "should I have full extension of the right hand to inside the left thigh".....can you explain another way?
On left arm...for THIS video (right arm leading)....let it go along for the ride.
For left arm specifics in general here are 3 great ones to review:

Great video in detail. Thank you Eric. One question. There is this feeling when the right elbow pointed more to the ground in front of your pelvis and stays longer down during the takeaway and also in backswing. Would you say that this is something I need to do first so that in downswing your right elbow comes the way you explained it. Thanks Eric.
Hey there!
I can't say for sure what you need to do without seeing your swing on video, but I think this video will answer your question best!
ua-cam.com/video/cKz2-yn5R2o/v-deo.html
Let us know if any questions!
Hi Eric,
I want to thank you for your channel. I played lots of golf 10-20 years ago but lost interest as i never managed to break "the code", every swing felt like a lottery.
After I found your channel I have been a lot to the range capturing video and applying your drillls and instructions. I am using your drills to reprogram my muscle memory bit-by-bit after years of banging balls on the range in the wrong way. It's hard work, but very rewarding and great fun. wish i could visit your training center in the US.
Greetings from Norway
Appreciate you being here with us! Glad the videos are helping!
Would love to work on your game together at www.cogornogolf.com👊
This is very good
Thanks Phil!
An excellent 'shallowing the club' video in disguise 😊
Lol :)
Love the biomechanical analysis. As we know you can overdue any correct move. How do you know if you’ve overdone the adduction external rotation move toward the target? My feel is driving the medial elbow towards the belly button, under the lead elbow, squeezing them together. If I don’t do this enough I tend to pull hook the ball. Thoughts?
Hey Robert!
VERYYYYYYYYYY hard and extremely unlikely to over do this.
If you don't do it enough and pull hook it that's GREAT....means your club face is closed enough to path. The MORE you do these moves it PREVENTS the face from closing more
Dustin Johnson would be an extreme example to look at.....face is really shut and he does these THE MOST to get the handle more forward and up to prevent face from closing more
Best players do this the most, worse players do it the least.
So thats my long answer----short answer I wouldn't worry about it for another second.

Morning Eric
You mention in the video information about in person lessons/One day Golf school in Bethlehem PA. Can you send the details?

:)
Thank you very much for the video! And you are absolutely right...the right elbow and arm movement ist underrated in most of the lessons! What I heard 40 years ago, pull with the left, left, left arm...😂🤣BUT the right arm give the speed this is what Ballesteros said in his book 1988, and don´t forget Hogans magic Elbow! I will try your idea!
👊
Our pleasure! Hope this one serves you well!
Hi Eric-GREAT visual. Do you wait to impact to start rotating the hips?
Thanks Russ!
The hips ideally would begin rotating open from the top of the swing and be roughly 45° open at impact. Check this video out for more details!
ua-cam.com/video/ULy3gQuw88Q/v-deo.html
This is an interesting video. I tend to have my right elbow against my lower right rib during my whole swing to impact. I wonder now, if that is keeping me from geting my right arm forward during my swing?!? I've noticed on GolfTec videos during lessons and practice that my right arm, and thus my hands at impact, are never near my left thigh. I tend to have my hands at, or near, the middle of my stance at impact (belt buckle). I'm also struggling with contact and often hit the ball fat.
I have finally been told what to work on my swing! Staying connected is relevant to my goals. The complete instructions on how
Hey John! I would really need to see your swing on video to say for sure
I get it. Hard to say as there are so many things going on in the swing. Someday I'm going to get to PA to see you. 😎
Wow, I love that drill! Another outstanding lesson Eric. Thank you.
Thanks Joe!
Cannot find the link to your video on squaring the club face?

@@CogornoGolf At the end of the above video, you mention you would post the link of a previous one regarding „squaring the club face“

Here ya go!👊
Hi Eric! Great video. I always wonder when someone say student took this many years but didn't figure out correct move(R arm forward for this case).
I think correct me if i'm wrong coach like you spent more time on studying and have vast experience working with different students.
And Student are only seeing their swing so can't solve problem on own. Right?
What will you say?
Thank you!
SO important to find an expert coach to help with identifying and building an improvement plan for your top 1-2 priorities!
a lot of golf instructors advocate starting the downswing by dropping your hands straight down to the side of your trail hip as you weight shift
The underlying goal here is preventing the hands from being pulled out from the body by the swing force as the club head comes down around the hands with a strategy of using leverage, not strength, similar to how a food server lifts and lowers a heavy tray. Why is knowing the goal important? It gives you the means to understand whether the technique is working by observing the path of the hands during the swing and whether or not they are being pulled further out.
If the hands get pulled out the club head goes out over the ball-target line and the reflexive brain will react by trying to steer the hands and face back to the target causing a slice. Learn to keep the hands at a constant radius using the technique Eric is illustrating here and like magic the slices will go away and you’ll start to hit nice controlled draws 😊
good stuff Teddy
Feels like this video is was directed right at me 😂. I always seem to get my right arm stuck behind me causing a host of issues. Having my hands too far behind me at the top of my backswing I’m sure is contributing as well.
I'm keeping an eye on ya Ben :)
Your teaching is excellent. I tried swinging the club as you have shown and have greatly improved my ball striking. One comment though. I wish you would show your swing in slow motion. The swing takes less than a second and its very difficult to see how your arms move throughout the swing.
👊Appreciate that feedback! So glad this one helped my friend!
This is it! Eureka, I found it!
Thanks for watching!👊
Have tried for years to get external rotation, can't get there. Slap tear and dislocated right shoulder at 21, then tore the labrum front and back 6 years ago at 59. My right shoulder is locked, very inflexible. it stays super tight to avoid dislocating. Any thoughts on an alternative, Eric??
Hey Mike! I would really need to see your swing on video and see what you can/cannot do to offer any worthwhile advice here without guessing too much. Come see me in person or online at www.cogornogolf.com so I can see you swing and help
Hey Eric, does this apply to all the clubs in the bag or just irons? Thanks!
Hey J G! All clubs here👍
Using adduction with my right shoulder feels like a new power source, like my whole right side is hitting through the ball. My hands end up on my left side.....hands ahead of the ball.......it seems almost effortless.
Yes!
What are the squishy soft flexible shoes you wear? I have some that are too stiff in the name of stability. Yours look really comfy.
Hey John they are nike running shoes!
@@CogornoGolf Do you play golf in those shoes? Soft as they are, they don't seem to cause any problems with stability, firm right leg on the backswing, weight shifted on the left and left heel during the swing. I ask because I have high arches that mean the balls of my feet are wide though my heels are narrow. A podiatrist who was also a marathon runner explained to me that your arch is meant to flex. Flat feet don't have enough flex. But too high an arch is also bad because it does not flex up and down with your step. Instead the arch stays rigid and your foot essentially tries to roll over your big toe, making the big toe turn a bit sideways and point out. Most shoes have a last or shape that is a bit like curved parentheses L( )R. So when I put them on, my toes, particularly on my right foot, fill the space from the middle to the outside edge, leaving all the space on the inside empty. My right foot is also a half size shorter and half size wider than my left. So yeah, all my life I have had problems with athletic shoes when playing football, baseball, tennis, golf. If a shoe fit my left foot, it was too long for my right foot so the ball of my foot came down just short of where it should. Back in the 50s and 60s when we wore long football cleats and metal baseball cleats, it meant the ball of my right foot was behind instead of on top of the cleats, making the cleats tilt and my toes point up. Damn uncomfortable and hurt performance. Anyway, my solution has been to look for wide shoes with straight lasts, not C shaped lasts. I have worn Footjoys and Ecco shoes, and a year ago got New Balance 9.5 2E shoes that have high toe boxes and thus room for my toes. Then this year I bought a pair of Sqairz shoes based on their ads. They were on sale so it seemed worth a try. But I wore them for one round and wound up with a bruised right toenail. I find them to be very rigid and have not worn them again. So now you understand why I keep looking at those almost slipper comfy shoes you seem to move and hit so well in. The only problem for me is that Nike tends to have narrow lasts, as do Adidas. But maybe there is no need to wear rigid shoes for golf and something wide enough and comfortably soft and flexible may actually improve one's swing. Sorry to be so long, but am sure you know if your feet hurt, you ain't gonna play well.
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Hey Eric. Are you giving any individual lesson in Bethlehem? Or only the full day package lessons?
Hey Joe!
Both, but all of my individual lessons and golf schools are booked through September. Please email service@cogornogolf.com with the subject "lessons" and we'll email you when new spots open up!
Right handers do not lead with the right arm. The left arm takes you/leads you to the ball!!! Okay, just semantics.
The key to this matter is actually very, very simple. There is a teenage girl on you tube who teaches this. Hit the ball out of the hinge-and hang on to the hinge as long as possible-thru/past contact. For the right-hander (I am left-handed) the straight left arm takes you to the ball and the right arm provides the power. Here the right elbow is held close to the body with the forearms forming a V/triangle that returns the club-head to the ball from the backswing as the body/hips rotate in unison. The hands stay ahead of the ball as the arms and hips and body rip the clubhead thru the ball. This generates terrific power-and accuracy when figured out.
My wife, who has been stupendously admiring and wondering how I, at 5'2" and 71 years old, can hit this little ball so far and straight just this week (finally) asked to be taught how to do this. It was awkward at first-for her...kept reverting to the old swing plane. But, by george, today it began coming around. And she agrees-it is an incredibly natural, easy and repeatable swing when you execute it correctly.
FYI, I just learned this a year ago when I came out of a two month, golf absence of winter travel forgetting how to hit that little ball. A friend sent me a gabbygolfgirl instructional clip to see if it could rescue me-it surely did. Now I (only) drive around 200 yards (got out to 225 several times today) and score at around 80 from around the 5500 yard course tee length-which is the length the PGA says I should be playing relative to my driving distance. I also have a relatively new, small set of 9 clubs...and I am literally getting a little better every day.
Eric, do you do golf schools?
Hey Jeff! Yes I do----all the spots are full at the moment but we can let you know if anything opens in Aug/Sept. Send us an email to service@cogornogolf.com with "lessons" on the headline and we will keep your info and send if spots open!
No one has commented on the drill. I can't keep the stick pressing on my left arm, let alone incrase the pressure. Any ideas without seeing me do the drill?
Hey Raymond...ahh not really....as you mention I would need to see. Make sure lead shoulder stays down in transition and you exaggerate more. Could be several things causing that issue...sorry about that
Heres another one I did that drill maybe something here will click/help:

Hey there! It's in the description box of the video👊
Pull your right elbow straight down hard at the same time as you are turning your torso. Don't make it more difficult than it is!

Some slo-mo of the correct swing would be helpful. Thx
Agreed! Sorry we didn't include that in here
Wouldn't this promote toe strikes with the elbow tucked in so much?
Nope! Of course you can OVER DO or UNDER DO anything.....these are feels for players with arm too far back like the person in my lesson I mentioned
Hands are not in front of the lead thigh at impact. That’s an illusion from face on. At impact the thighs / hips are facing towards the target so hands are in front of the trail thigh. In front of the bod.
Thanks for the feedback Gareth!
This is Simply the Pete Cowan (No-mo Arc Swing) Its A Beautiful thing... Since ive learned to swing this way It seems that i cant hit the ball badly most of my iron shots are dead straight and hit like pure butter ! I AM A BELIEVER ! The point i discovered and wanted to bring to your attention ...At the end you talked about the Body rotation through and after impact as though its an after thought... In my own experience that hip rotation squares the clubface and provedes the leveraged power .....Without this rotation this swing becomes less effective as far as purity of strike GOES ......Emphasize it more This hip/Shoulder rotation is the (magic) in this swing im not sure how or why you are missing this...Rotation is the only source of power here its magical and hard to see pressure with the right wrist and rotation the only source of power.... Please tell me if im wrong
Thanks for the thoughts and feedback! Would have to define things a bit more to give a simple "yes" or "no" to those thoughts. Of course its never quite that simple....but I like the road you are heading down.
When I try this, the club face stays open and the ball slices. What gives?
Hey Jeremie!
Thats correct....the more you do these the more the face would be open. IF you do this and its TOO open thats a tell tale sign that you aren't closing the face enough in the correct/ earlier ways. That would be either 1. Grip stronger 2. Wrist angles 3. Arm rotation

No way. My trailing elbow doesn’t want to go down there.. it does not agree to lead the way. I think I was not assembled the right way 😅
:) Hope this one helps!
... For God sakes just don't do that on the backswing. I did that trying to keep the arms in front and shorten my arm swing... Seemed logical.. But did the opposite of both due to the force of the club swinging and no real support in the right place...maxed out and rebounds. .. Makes perfect sense to move into that on the way down.

Hi Eruc, with all dye respect, you're a great coach but does no one on UA-cam really have a simplified way to teach instead of new videos on fragmented elements of the swing? Hie about a simple way to turn abd then deliver.. since every person's swing us unique? Just a simple way to play golf not pieces of a puzzle to put together.
Hey! I hear ya.....unfortunately...not everything can be so simple. Sometimes TOO SIMPLE is worse than TOO COMPLICATED.
Sometimes you need to go a layer deeper.
Of course that wont be for everyone and I completely understand if thats not for you. Hope you will enjoy some of our other more simple big picture videos!
It might help if you didn’t exaggerate so much in the “bad” pictures 😂

Abduction, external rotation...too many thoughts...
Appreciate the feedback! Sorry about that!
