How To Increase Chest And Shoulder Rotation In Your Golf Swing

[@joseserranosuner]

Another great video Eric! I really believe you have a way of explaining things both in detail and concisely. What I find very useful when unleashing my torso is to have my chin counter-rotate clockwise. That is, my left shoulder moves away from my chin counter-clockwise in a level manner at first, it almost tries to point down at the imaginary line at the ground that goes from my target through the ball and away from my objective. My chin then continues to be kept at that precise spot resisting and rotating away from the target and my left shoulder prior to my right shoulder now dropping and making a distinct downward movement that ends up pulling the chin along and now rotating forward towards my target as my left shoulder now moves up and around. I find that tilting too early makes it more difficult for me to unwind my torso. I feel my upper body opening up my lower body to target.

Appreciate it! I like those feels as well and have many players express similar feels!

Thanks for your video.I find out i hit the ball very solid with your drill and wonder can use it in the golf course for any shot inside 100 meter ? off course no second ball.

[@CogornoGolf]

absolutely!

[@BarnhillGolf]

I really enjoyed the video.

Great video Eric. I purchased one of your earlier courses on rotation called Rotation Truths and it has helped me tremendously. I was thinking about picking up the master class but wasn’t sure about the differences. Does the master class build on the previous series of lessons? Thanks.

[@CogornoGolf]

Hey Dave! Appreciate the kinds words there- glad it helped! The masterclass is just a lot more in depth!

Hey Eric, how do I set up an online swing analysis with you ?

[@CogornoGolf]

Hey man-here is the link with info ecgolfcoaching.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php

One of the important knowledge/feels that would enhance this drill and movement pattern would be to make sure golfers understand that the shoulders rotate externally versus internally. It lends further stability in the rotation of the chest, and syncs the arms to prevent early release.

[@CogornoGolf]

Good point!

I tried the 2 ball drill today, with video. It really makes a visible difference and creates a different feel, thank you! Still haven't figured out how to open up that way from the normal setup position, and starting a full swing from the opened up position doesn't work either, yet....

[@CogornoGolf]

Good stuff--keep working it, you'll figure it out. Or I can help if needed

[@randyunderwood2894]

perfect. that drill actually does 2 things

[@pookievanderbilt6889]

Hey Eric, Pookie here- If I had a product I have worked on and wanted you to try it to let me know what you thought about it- would you check it out if I sent you one?

[@CogornoGolf]

Yeah for sure...send me an email about it [e-mail]

[@AlexanderMacleod]

No offence but when you say little shot, you do end up nearly doing a full swing 😂😂.

[@CogornoGolf]

Lol yes we all do that :)

[@AlexanderMacleod]

@@CogornoGolf very true lol

[@Rd-bi7vr]

The fallacy of modern golf instruction is this notion of starting down swing ground up...hitting with your legs etc..these are only feelings ..the upper body and the arms still co trol, move the club...this video makes no mention of the lower body ...am I right with my statement ?

[@CogornoGolf]

Hey Sambhu... No. The pressure shift in the feet begins the motion.
