Both Eric and Tom Saguto have a gift for explaining the swing to amateurs. They are by far my favorites. Eric is quietly cerebral. Tom is a born comedian. We're lucky to have them both.

Brilliant stuff Eric! Can’t wait to try this at the range. If I recall, you’ve also talked about that same feeling of pressing the lead arm against the chest (as much if not slightly more) in the downswing as a way to keep your upper body and shoulders from getting ahead of the lower body through impact. Does this still hold true?

So I stumbled across this inside tight left arm concept a couple of weeks ago. I think it came from Arnold Palmer discussion early years someone told him this but he never got it until after his 50's... 'Secret to the golf swing' left arm in tight. I've been golfing 25+ years, I had 2 of the 3 swing keys down... didn't realize I was missing this. I've always had a short (1/2) swing, easy tempo... but when I added this take back (BTW, I heard this 3 to 4 other times, but your explanation is by far the clearest and easiest to understand!) watching your video, I could litterally feel each of your shots.... Long story short. my last round I had 5 birdies, I never hit my irons more on target, cleaner and straigher! This is a golden nugget to the swing if folks can get it!!! I won my first Golfweek am B flight event last week, and I've litterally never been on in regulation more! I hit a personal best 12 during the tournament! I"m sure I'd seen your video before (I'm a youtube golf instruction junkie!) but had I known and applied this, I'd be miles better by now.... Golfers need to pay close attention to this! the game has become so much easier and fun! THANKS for the great tips!!!

That rolling takeaway plagued me for years, really difficult to break that habit, spent hours in the first lockdown practicing club outside hands on takeaway. But even now old habits die hard, still occasionally roll it, and hit a bad shot. But at least i know what caused it. Excellent video Eric

Thank you----hope this one helps! One thing that has helped myself and my students a lot Make sure when you practice it you are actually hitting a ball (swings without hitting won't transfer well) Ball can be foam of whiffle is fine All practice while hitting (only go as fast as you can do it correctly) And of course use video to confirm the FEELS vs REALS This is the formula I have found to change the fastest

Thanks Eric, just spent an hour in the practice nets with a glove under my lead armpit even though it was pissing down! However, I feel as if my arms come too much on the inside. Tried lifting my arms up halfway through my backswing which provided slightly better results.

Yah dude, i had the same issue in my swing... very very low because another youtube instructor said that there is no lifting in the swing... Once i noticed this, i have been hitting the ball as good as ever... I think of it as a spiral to the top. You have to turn and lift gradually to the top without loosing connection.. If you loose the connection the lifting was excessive or to early.. That glove will stay there if you lift just enough all the way to the top

Wouldn't this whole lesson have been a bit more straightforward if the mantra included "Keep your lead arm fairly firm/straight - Don't fold up the lead arm in the take-a-way. The take-a-way has to be "low and slow - and a bit inside" -the rest [keeping connected to the pec/body becomes much more easy and clear!]

Hey Tom! I think the connection between the lead arm and body was more the key here. The arm being straight or bent could be connected or disconnected so not so much about that here But of course we have discussed the important of the arm being more straight here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/xKCnn3eJiJ14iYo&pp=ygUeRXJpYyBDb2dvcm5vIGxlZnQgYXJtIHN0cmFpZ2h0

Hi Eric this is exactly what I think I need to prevent rolling wrists and poor disconnection in take away however the more I emulate this the deeper my hands and arms get behind me and I and up with a trapped stuck feeling with a flat backswing. Tiger and you seem to start the same but then your left arm swings up and high where mine carries on around me. Maybe it’s just the way my shoulder joint works ?
@CogornoGolf
Жыл бұрын
You have to make sure your body is turning.....that would be part #1 We aren't pulling the arms behind us with no turn.... 80% of the depth should come from body turn 20% from arms working across body Also....you can OVER DO anything....so if you are too deep you may need to feel arms more UP and less in Of course I would need to see your swing on video to say for sure....send swings to www.cogornogolf.com and we will fix
@Marco-mg9tv
Жыл бұрын
yes Eric thanks so much for taking time to reply. At approx 9:50 you stand upright and show your arm needs to move across the body and the need to turn also. But when at address the lead arm is not on the same plane as the shoulders therefore there must be at least 18” of arm lift to get anywhere near the inclined shoulder plane this is what in need to co-ordinate with the turn. Would be great if you showed from the takeaway move on this video to the top of the swing as I think this could be key to a lot of us !

Is there any golf drills (or videos) I can do to stop my lead elbow bending in my back swing? Ive watched dozens upon dozens upon dozens of videos from numerous people and everybody keeps their lead arm perfectly straight and then about 60-70% of the backswing the trail elbow bends whilst their lead arm stays straight with no elbow bend I cannot do this for the life of me. At 40-50% of my backswing both my elbows just buckle and bend and I can't stop myself from doing it Its driving me mad
