Love it when there are collab vids (like those with Tom Saguto on ECG) and also seeing you guys reference and comment on each other’s content. Love your content jchown since subscribing last year!
First time I've seen this drill, and I'm anxious to try it! Seems like exactly the thing I need to be working on--more for consistency than distance, but I'll happily take both. What I really need is a swing I can trust.✌

Well, he has a couple of things going for him and those should be taken into consideration. He's young, strong and I'm sure has a strong "core". Along with good golf mechanics and athletic body you too would hit like him. I remember being that strong years ago and could hit balls over the fence. Now, at 72 golf has become a very different thing altogether. The reason I watched this video is because it does make sense and especially for seniors like myself it's a good way to get some distance back into my swing but it will not ever look like Eric's excellent swing. Nice swing Eric...your instruction on this concept is excellent. You can bet I will start working on it soon.
Excellent instruction & great drills! Thanks for sharing the talent & knowledge!

Great video again Eric. I plan on using this in the beginning of my warmup, at the range before I play. Six swings from stationary setup. Six swings with hitting the ball, club parallel to the ground. Six swings hitting the ball starting with club parallel to the ground and swinging back to maybe 3/4 and hitting the ball. Plan in place. What I like is learning to transfer your weight to the lead side properly. This will also help in hitting ball first and divot after the ball. So many extra benefits with your drill.

I like that! Keep me updated with the progress and how you end up fitting it in. I wouldn't typically do this pre round BUT I'm all for it if it works. Let me know
Very nice Eric. This perfectly utilizes out kinetic chain to perform as it should without padding extra time into the swing to allow us (me!) to try to manipulate anything. This also compacts the swing to compress the ball and hit the center of the club face more often. Well done!

thanks Eric for the lesson, tip. looking forward to trying this out. Just got back from the range and i saw this,, the very problem i'm having. I know where my problem lies but have not been able to fix it. starting too fast from the top of the swing. I have beautiful practice swings that feel really good, coming from inside and not rushed, but as soon as it's the real swing and i'm focused on the ball.... hurry from the top trying to generate power. I think this might be the ticket to a calmer more controlled down swing! thanks again!

Wow, you're crushing it. Keep up the solid work. I duct taped 5 old clubs together and do his 1 arm drills for upwardly of 5,000 reps per day (35,000 swings per week > 140,000 plus left arm swings a month.) I no longer even need my right arm because the ball goes way too far when I use both. Like tennis, I truly believe the game was meant to be mastered with 1 arm. I'm gonna start using right arm drills but because I'm naturally right handed, I'm gonna duct tape 8 clubs together and start swinging heavier. It's a great forearm, lat and shoulder work out you even hit parts of the traps and glutes which is icing on the cake. My goal is to get to 225,000 swings a month with both 1 armed swings. Thanks
I really appreciate and enjoyed the video I will start going tovthe range and practicing this

Can’t wait to try this. I used to have a finau-like half swing and hit my PW 160+ and driver 300+ easy but changed to a conventional swing after an injury and my PW went to 120 and driver to 220. After a few practice swings in the yard like this I forgot how short my old swing used to be. So much easier for me to get speed

Another good one, Eric! I'm a "recovering overswinger." Been struggling with excessive arm runoff at the top; this causes an open cf at impact, off-sync pressure shift and over-dominant upper body. When I'm playing good, I get it right.; when I fumble, I tend to spiral back to my old habits. Your videos are helping me a lot in my journey to a more compact and efficient backswing, and this one will def be part of my practice. Thanks!

@@CogornoGolf You're absolutely right. I just found out through video feedback that my perception of short was wayyy off. Like if I feel arms are chest-high, they're actually at about 11 o'clock. So my formula now is REAL IS PLUS 2 HOURS OF FEEL 😂 Sounds silly but it works for me! Thanks again, man! BTW, your "Sling Your Arms" video massively helped me and a couple of friends here in the Philippines!

I’m an older lady beginner. I love this as I’m getting a good shape on my backswing and a nice feel of the clubhead but I know I’m finishing the swing at the ball with no real follow through Yup manufactured follow through!!! I’m lucky even though I’m old I have good rotation of the hips from dressage riding. This is my new drill!!!! I’ve increased my ball speed by 30kph but only getting about 10 meters out of it. I hit extremely high with little carry - I think this might really help ⛳️🥂😎

Incredible drill, I should say so! In just one session today doing 9 holes I put this into effect without any prior practice. I have never followed through correctly in 20+years, that was until today. What a difference it makes to ball striking. I was actually told after that my swing looked elegant - what at 78-years of age? I have really learnt something great from this video. Thank you Cogorno Golf

That "up and back" motion loads the stretch reflex. This reminded me a time, many years ago, when I shortened my swing and started hitting the ball farther. I had forgotten about it as it was obscured by the giant pile I have amassed of more recent screwball swing theories.😏
