Best tip ever! Love that you focus on a single detail and not some complex sequence. Solved my problems with the short irons (long irons still inconsistent but i'm sure they can be fixed too).
This was in interesting video... I like to take my setup with shaft lean... but I thought it was wrong so I've been working to correct it and take setup with a more vertical iron setup. This was good to confirm that it's ok to setup with shaft lean. I find it helps me hit that sweet spot and get good compression.
the setup portion of this finally tied my swing back together. my game has been a mess for 18 months and this tip finally gets me in the right spot to implement all the stuff I've been working on
ive been trying this S2S method and even enrolled in Sam's site. I have to say it is quite effective. I took a stroke off my hcap from 5.2 to 4.1 in about 2 mos. The big difference will be the ball flight - for some reason, my tendencies are now more on a draw whereas before I was a fader of the ball. I can probably take another stroke off if I can get used to aligning more right of the target.
Wish Sam was still posting videos. After suffering from a back injury, the S2S swing allowed me to come back to the game I love and in fact, shoot lower scores with less wear on my body. Handicap went from a regular 10-11 to an 8.6.
Hitting the ball consistently nothing else matters, how true. My biggest issue. I practice swing at least twice before striking the ball so that I’m compressing the ball In thought, then I hit the shot, it does help me. Hitting off a mat vs uneven lies, feet and ball is also a point that I struggle with. Fundamentals that you’re teaching is really great. Course play is a different ball game. Thanks Eric this is great information.
Sam’s approach seems similar to the Stack and Tilt approach you reviewed with Tom like a year ago. It could be a take on it vs exact. Do I understand this correctly from how it looks visually. Thanks for showing these different approaches as not all golfers are the same!
Hey Eric. Great video. I have a Mnml golf bag from Sam, it's awesome. Highly recommend. What is your opinion on hovering the golf club at address for irons and driver? Should it be touching the ground or elevated? I've always rested my club on the ground behind the ball but it seems like the best thing to do would be to slightly hover to simulate the contact position and ball first contact.
Great video. I did this exact process for awhile and loved it. My instructors however didn’t really liked it that much and told me to stop, wish I never did. I hit it at least 15/20 yards further per club. I did however notice after awhile that I started to snaphook it (while I came from a slice) especially on my long irons and up. When I went back to what my instructors told me the slice slowly started to make his way back. How should this be different with woods on and off the tee, or should this process be the same? Thanks in advance!
Hey Ramon...good question and I don't think the answer is the same for everyone. I would really need to see YOUR swing to say for sure what YOU need to do with the longer clubs. Take advantage to free 14 day trial to www.cogornogolf.com and send me in your swings!
This works great for irons but what about hybrids and woods? Tried it today and struggled figuring out set up with those clubs. My iron striking was great!
Just went to the range right after watching this video and my swing is forever changed. I have never hit the ball so pure. I have been trying to get shaft lean and get rid of my high ball flight. Just from watching this video, it was night and day. I even have a draw now.
I've been using similar technique prior to the video, thanks for the content! But I tend to pull hook a lot and the ball flight too low (Sub 20 yards), any good recommendations?
Sounds like face too closed/not enough loft I would need to see swing to say why....could be grip too strong, face too closed at setup, wrist angles, etc
I assume you mean setting the third or fourth groove up from the sole (not down from the top edge) AND that those grooves are level with the equator, i.e. half way up, of the ball. Is that correct?
It looks like Sam's bsw sequence is P1-P6 rather than P1-P2 and s2s swing is more flat under shoulder line withoutvany hinging of wrist, lifting of arms.
I love this simple approach. You just need to be mindful about making some adjustments to this set up for pitch shots and understanding how a lack of purposeful active wrist movement in the back swing may change your approach to short game (see how Bryson pitches)
Yep! I took a look through our videos and thought gosh we have so much good in our older videos that still all applies that I want everyone to see so I can keep helping!

Best instructional golf channel on UA-cam. Great stuff
Thanks Stevie!

Love it Corbin....hope it serves you well!
I appreciate that you search out new instructors point of view and approaches. Keeps your instruction fresh and interesting. Thanks
Thanks, Steve!
Throwback video back when Lakes at El Segundo was still there (now Topgolf). Great video, Eric!
Thanks so much, Steve!👊

Excellent check points to monitor use of the technique
Thanks, Daniel!

Thanks! Not sure....just a great way to keep face square to path and hit the ball solid. Can call that whatever we want I suppose :)

Seen both happen....either can work!
@@CogornoGolfAwesome. Thanks for the reply.
Would love to see that covered in a video.

All good----perhaps just use with irons then!

Love it Cole!!👊
Kirk Junge’s set up for impact golf swing. Sort of relates back to a school of teaching connecting back to Moe Norman.
Love it
thanx
Our pleasure!
Really would have liked to see this drill using longer irons.
Maybe next time :)

What’s the name of your golf shoes Eric?
I think these are NIKE revolutions
Thanks

That works
Eric, this is great content, but I have to ask. Was this filmed at the old range at the Lakes in El Segundo?
That's exactly where this was filmed Rev DonDee! I believe it's now a Top Golf location.
Yep!
How’s this work with the driver!
Irons vs driver info here:
ua-cam.com/video/TJtx-qVSgVU/v-deo.html
is it okay that the blade / club is behind the hands in the backswing? thats what it looks like.
Great observation and one of the main criticisms of s&t. I’m a big fan of this channel and pick up many drills and tips- this isn’t for me
Yep! so long as it comes down inside hands as well
Would of liked to see longer irons and woods
I just found out the Lakes at El Segundo, is now a Top Golf
Yeah when we were there we had heard that was happening !
My congratulations on blocking out the cussing 🤣😜🤣
It looks like Sam's bsw sequence is P1-P6 rather than P1-P2 and s2s swing is more flat under shoulder line withoutvany hinging of wrist, lifting of arms.
He has a great swing!

Thanks, Reed! Sam is awesome!
Wish this was a new video
Haha hopefully we get to hang with Sam again soon!
@@CogornoGolf all good this video changed my golf game! Both of you nautical out great content!
The only golf lesson I need… why play the game if I can’t hit the sweet spot?
Hope this one helps, Roman! Appreciate you watching the channel!
Essentially…the basics of stack and tilt, right?
Yes
Yes
Hey Ron! I don't know....just the basics of keeping the face square

just don’t use the Kanabi if you’re any type of CDL/over road driver…that would be a no-no.
Thanks for your feedback!
