How to Get Into a Powerful Backswing - The Role of the Trail Elbow Placement

[@gregoryedwards8781]

This video was huge for me. I had the arms going everywhere. I totally get the feel now

[@bobcucullo5088]

Brilliant series of videos! The simplest, most clear and concise explanations, demonstrations and drills I have seen!

[@paulmoscicki2038]

I agree with Lucas. The sooner I can build my foundation on a great backswing, the sooner I can move forward towards better, consistent swings. Thanks Larry

[@sepetisionelatu5539]

l always try to duck my trail elbow in but l find more freedom in my swing with greater club head speed having my trail arm pushing/extending out from my body on my back swing l feel good with it and this is creating a lot of torque that releases with like an effortless swing but with speed/power. Thank you.

You really are one of the best, Thanks for your coaching. I fully understand stand why I am stuck now.

[@LarryCheungGolf]

haha, thanks! =)

[@leeseoWestport]

Man...the swing is explained so clearly for me: the mechanics and the athleticism make a lot of sense here.

[@jameslovering9158]

Nice tip and drill, its actually something that I struggle with knowing where to keep the trail elbow.

[@mikeduong9925]

Nice tip Larry! Been working on this a lot.

[@LarryCheungGolf]

This is something you should always think about!!! =)

[@christ2906]

Thanks for the great explanation !! You are a great instructor. 👍🏻

[@LarryCheungGolf]

Thanks for the kind words =)

[@donnachiebro]

Great video Larry can't wait to try it out cheers 👍🏻👍🏻🏌️🏌️

[@MikeDoba]

Makes perfect sense coach. And when i review my taped swing it actually looks like im listening

[@pipebliss]

Great lesson, thanks for sharing!

[@lucas1981]

Thank you Larry for explaining all that stuff in a manner that it is easy to comprehend and to try it on your own. Please visit Germany :D

[@LarryCheungGolf]

Haha, maybe one day! =)

[@aljamesproductions]

Loving your work. Thank you.

[@bigbangeroony]

Thanks Larry, great tip love it. Been working on exactly this lately, this elbow placement awareness has made an immediate huge difference. It was an 'aha' moment . Keep 'em coming please.

[@joekane23]

Great lesson Larry I’m thinking achieving proper wrist angles I.e bowed wrist at the top of the backswing helps get the arms higher just a small observation love your thoughtful content best wishes Joe

[@MN-wx4hl]

Larry, loving your videos; will be trying out some of your drills this winter. How does this video relate to the “feeling” of hands low when you mention you want height? Which one should I feel? Low hands or height/depth?

[@LarryCheungGolf]

Depends on what you struggle with =)

[@95TFlyers]

Can we get a video and tips/drills for a more Neutral swing path.. without a monitor? Please

[@kb-tr7sk]

Hi Larry, Could pushing up and back with your trail arm help with a steep or over the top downswing because instead of a passive backswing where you then fire the trail arm forward, you now have pressure going in the opposite direction?

[@LarryCheungGolf]

I'm not sure what you are trying to say =P

[@mystikalknight]

Great video! I've been binge watching your videos like netflix. It's been quite an adjustment but I'm making better contact. Would you say the turn/hip initiates the first movement of the backswing if your hands are dangling? Or is it both the arms and hips as the first movement?

[@LarryCheungGolf]

Depends on player what they need to prioritize =)

[@TheOgieone]

Very interesting!

[@clintedwards7766]

Fantastic explanation. I’m guilty of getting the elbow behind from time to time. Will definitely add this one to the library to refer to. Thanks again LC.

[@banditbaker1675]

Man that's hard to do....but I'm trying PS How's the Pooch, have you started his training yet?

[@LarryCheungGolf]

Everyday there is training lol!!!

Larry, take Ian’s shirt back! Kkkk

[@LarryCheungGolf]

lolll

[@bkirkwd52]

Your backswing looks similar to that taught by the late Mike Austin, famous for his length having the record for the longest drive ever in competition

[@BamaPaul]

I can’t physically keep my elbow down it’s in line with body angle at top .

[@JH-xs3ys]

Great video Larry. Because you stress the width of the swing at the top and also because camera angles aren't in 3 d, I always thought you were advocating a flying right elbow. I now realise you don't at all.

[@b2bbogey735]

A swimpad would solve that elbow distance.

[@LarryCheungGolf]

I'm not a fan of training aids as most won't help you keep the result when it comes off =)

[@whiskerrub]

Yep we need a take from Larry on the PlaneMate not so much a review but I would really like to see if it’s adapted to his teachings. 👍 I mean come on Larry I own a basketball because of you😂 and no hoop. #golf4shits&giggles
