This! Thanks for posting. I've only been golfing for 4 years, but last fall when I started to move my body and let my left knee move towards the ball during my takeaway, so much instantly corrected. For some reason, probably because I used to hear it a lot on TV, I wanted to restrict my lower body. Then, at a lesson, I was told to move more naturally and let my body move as illustrated at 4:45 in the video. It actually felt awkward a bit at first but now feels completely like I'm letting my body move as it wants to. The difference in contact, consistency and distance was immediate and profound.
Love it....I have had similar experiences where I thought I should be doing one thing and had a huge AHA moment when doing it the right way (with tilts) :)
This video actually helped my know how to properly use my straightaway. Thank you!
You got it!!
Got myself a straightaway a couple months back. Best training aid in my bag. Use it before every warm up. Game changer
Love it!
Damn this is a great video. I started doing these drills while slowing down my swing and started hitting %1000 percent better. Thank you so much.
Love to hear this, Matthew!
Thanks Eric. A couple of good, simple drills that I can use immediately. I feel like I know what I need to do, just have trouble doing it. Looking forward to your next one on the downswing.
You got it!!
Another great video. My game has improved greatly from watching your content. Thank you Eric
Thanks Mike!
Got a foot of snow here in Vermont but I can't wait to try this. I am so focused on getting my hands in and arms moving on plane that I forget using my body and constantly roll my takeaway. So frustrating knowing what you are doing wrong but not being able to figure it out. Gotta get that belly button moving!
Yes! Hope this one helps ya Kevin!
i'd never be a + handicapper if it weren't for David's online instruction videos I've seen over the last 25 years.
and I'd add those are all feels that I have and agree with. great vid
Love it DJ!
@@CogornoGolf 🙌
Takewake was spot on !! Left side tilt not so much , tilt happens as the left knee bends .
For sure tilt happens from legs changing flex combines with left side bend

9:12, "I should Shot Tracer that one". YES! You should add Shot Tracer data to all your videos, Eric. We need this data! Shot Shape, Speed, Carry. C'mon, hook us up! :-)
Lol :)
Hey @Eric! Amazing video. I just wanted to let you know it looks like the "Good" and "Bad" are flipped incorrectly when doing the side by side!
Thank you!
Sorry about that!!
Ok so I'm 2 seconds into video and I'm loving that it's Eric and David (the man) Leadbetter, but if he pulls out that little gadget to screw onto the grip(product placement much!!) I'll go nuts... we shall see, ok roll the video! Grrr 21 seconds in, there it is! Oh dear...
Lol!!
😂 it's Leadbetter's latest shill. The A swing is so 2016.
@@boojiboy2275 I know right!! Sooo tacky!
I've been struggling with an early shut face and the compensations this leads to for a few years. Within a few minutes of working with this product I had an "aha" moment of the correct motion. Now my hands can work in while the club stays on the arc. My face angle is now equal to my spine angle at club parallel instead of shut. For me its important that the yellow rectangle is flat when the hands are at the right pocket so that the toe has raised the right amount. Excellent product. Thanks Eric!
👊
Love it Jeff! Our pleasure!
Eric, I believe at 9:38, the "Good" and "Bad" labels are reversed.
Yes---sorry about that!
Eric - you have the “good” and “bad” reversed on the visual at the 9:40 mark.
Hey! Yep---sorry about that!
Make a straightaway with a gear tie wrapped around your club and having 3inches pointing 45° out at the target line behind the ball
I like the swing thought of starting the swing with the belly button. Feels like it makes everything else synch up. Thanks!
Yes! Me too :)
Another feather in your cap Eric .
Appreciate it!
A good visual training aid , which can be easily duplicated .
The problem is that you are automatically charged for additional videos after 3 months if you do not cancel .
Hey Dave! Appreciate the feedback on this!
Actually for this one there is no "auto" membership plan with PG. We heard your feedback on that last time loud and clear and made sure we had them take that out for this one!
All the best
Eric do you have good and bad windows mixed up ? Towards the end of the video?
Yes, sorry about that!
Dont we tilt from the hips anyway when we set to the golf ball ?do we need more tilt?
Hey!
Yes SOME tilt comes from the hips (that's from the legs changing flex)......the left leg increases bend. Right leg loses some.
But also some side bend yes in addition to hip tilt
I think you have the good and bad captions wrong way round at around 7:32. Still like the video 👍🙂🏌️♂️
Sorry about that!!
@@CogornoGolf 👍🙂🏌️♂️
When you reached the point the yellow arrow is parallel to your aiming line and you finish your backswing what are your wrist doing? Nothing bowing or cupping?
Hey Mac! The lead wrist would work towards flexion/"bowing" and the trail wrist would work towards extension/"cupping".
More details here!

Is this for every club?
Same ideas, yep!
w/ driver since you are standing taller....you wont have as much tilt. Looking to tilt shoulders 90* to back line roughly.....shorter clubs more bent over so more tilt....longer clubs less bent over so less tilts.
Thats really the only diff
Is this the exact same for driver?
Hi yeah I’ve been using it for driver to works even better for me 👍
Same ideas, yep!

error in the captions at 9.39?
Sorry about that!
Start of backswing with club and with basket look different. Basket looks better !
Agreed---I need more of that in my own swing for sure!
Anybody got a protractor whats the angle on this thing? Easy to make
:)
Good and bad are on the wrong picture 7:32 and 9:40
Sorry about that---thanks for letting us know!!
You mean you filmed a set of commercials with Leadbetter.
Hey Matt!
Nope---I mean a set of CZcams videos with what I think is awesome free content for everyone :)
Hope you are doing well---have an awesome weekend!
One thing that good golf instructors with good golf swings aren’t very good at is illustrating exactly what a bad swing is. I would love it if you actually used an amateur’s swing or somebody who actually does the swing fault in motion instead of trying to illustrate it yourself.
Great point----will need to think on how to do that better! Thanks!
@@CogornoGolf love your vids either way!
@@TonyTanslingyou should send your swing to Eric. He’d have plenty of “bad swings” to show then. 😂😂
@@TML34 100% correct I’ve already offered
@@TonyTansling lol. Nice
And at 9:39😢
@9:38 you had that switched😊
The vitriol of people against commerce and and free market capitalism is astonishing. A guy goes out on a limb to create a product to help you play better golf, go through the prototype phase, pay for production with no guarantee he’ll sell a single unit much less make a profit and then do what you’re supposed to do, market, sell and promote all with the goal of improving people’s golf game mind you, and then gets ridiculed for it. I just don’t get it. Eric is also trying to make a little extra through affiliate marketing by promoting a product he BELIEVES IN. If he didn’t think it might help some of his viewers play better golf, he wouldn’t be promoting it like a snake oil salesman, his reputation is too important. Okay, I’m off my soapbox.
Keep your political preaching to yourself pal.
Nah. This is not technically new info. Leadbetter and performance golf are trying to monetize every aspect of the golf swing. I will pass. I like Eric as a coach but performance golf is shilling everything.
I’m sticking with David’s A swing method
:)
@@michaeldodd6864 you’re right, nothing new. I laughed at it at first glance myself. Curiosity got the better of me though and I actually bought one and when I use it I do hit the ball better. Do I “need” it? No. Can I do the same thing without it? Yes. Do swing aids and trainers help? Dang right they do. Does Leadbetter market a little aggressively, probably. I just don’t get the hostility towards him. I haven’t noticed but does Martin Chuck get the same reaction? Sean Foley? Maybe they do. They’re all grown men and have thick skin and it doesn’t bother them.
A bit disappointed that you are shilling so hard for a product Eric.
Loosen the fedora buddy
I hear ya and appreciate the feedback! What am I to do if I find a product that I really like, that I think can help a lot of golfers and can produce some extra income to pay our costs to produce these free videos for you all?
