    There's plenty of UA-camrs banging on about elbow in front of pocket/ hips on the downswing, but the focus on pointing the elbow pit forward coming into impact made a massive difference for me. I caught my torso rotating a lot more without me thinking at all about it to support that pit forward. Nice one!

    This setup position has revolutionized my swing. One simple change has given me a consistency and compression that I have never had. I have found the most important aspect is to make sure that at setup, the right elbow is in front of the abdomen and not on the side of it where my was. I ended up getting stuck and the consistency and compression went out the window.

    This video really helped simplify my swing as a new golfer. I have seen a lot of different takes on how it should feel during the down swing (right vs left). Where should it feel like the swing is coming from (obviously with hips included)? Right, left, equal?
    i.e. I’ve seen it’s like throwing a baseball down (i.e. right dominant). I’ve also seen your swing speed comes from the lead hand.

    I tried concentrating on this at the driving range today and it really help me make better contact with the ball. What I like about this tip is that you can do it during your setup and you really don't have to think about it when you swing the club. It helped me swing more from the inside and not over the top.

    This is a life-changing tip. None of my expensive pros have ever mentioned it. At first, it feels almost alien but after a few subtle draws or dead straight shots with CONSISTENCY, all one needs to do is trust it. Thank you Eric!

    • @wallstreetoneil
      @wallstreetoneil Рік тому +1

      As a golfer that has moved to this very right-hand dominant, lead elbow delivery, the secret (imo) to a repeatable powerful golfswing is to completely remove the left hand/wrist/anything from your brain/swing feels - the 97% of us that are naturally Right Handed, have spent a lifetime of building neurons in our brain that skillfully controls our right side - therefore use this to your advantage and put it in charge. I would also add that using a bigger grip that is also a +4 will give your right hand more real estate to apply this power and control - imo, every male should be using at least a Mid Sized +4 for this reason.

    • @CogornoGolf
      @CogornoGolf  Рік тому +1

      Hey Orson!
      I wouldn't say "doesn't move", as the trail arm will be more forward in space (towards the target) at impact vs. at setup...but keeping it in external rotation so you can keep the elbows close together throughout the entire swing would be a great start.

And watching him address the ball his shoulders are tilted mine are not, he has shaft lean I don’t. The club almost looks like a line off his lead arm. Mine is nothing like that sits centered.

    BUT I do not understand what "the face closed to the shaft" means
    I think that is a confusing and unfortunate choice of words
    The club face needs to be square through impact. Even if only a milisecond. Simple. Closed to the shaft? All the heads of my clubs are fixed on the end of the shaft.

    • @CogornoGolf
      @CogornoGolf  Рік тому

      Hey Richard!
      The club face can be open or closed to the target through impact to start the ball more left or right to play for a predicable curve. If your club face is 0* square to the target at impact and your path isn't also exactly 0*, your ball will always be curving away from the target. This is why you'll see all elite ball strikers playing curves, because hitting a dead straight shot perfectly at the target is the hardest shot in golf :)
      "Closed to the shaft" is just making sure the face is literally closed to the shaft. We go over some more details on this in these videos:

      @@CamaroKidd2022 I golf out of DCreek where this video was done. I’m in Ontario. Last day of golf for the season today. Snow Saturday. I took this little tweak to the range & the course yesterday. Didn’t miss a fairway. Greens were punched / sanded. I’d forgot how important this is. One of 200 little things in the golf swing. 😂

    I guess I missed the promotion by a couple days XD.. I've tried the right elbow out, both elbows facing out and a thousand other things and none have cured my right elbow from folding way to early and quickly.. it's driven me loony for years.
