One of your BEST videos yet! Right side bend through impact is absolutely one of the key moves to becoming a scratch player. Every good player does this. They watch their initial ball flight with a tilted view. You even mentioned the second most important key to scratch. Wrist positions. Knuckles down on your left hand = right wrist back. Hold your hands out like you’re gripping a club. Now, bow your left wrist. Notice how the right wrist bends back. Now, do it again. Bend your right wrist back. Notice how the left wrist bows. The point is…. You can “feel” this with either hand during your swing. The results are the same. Side note… Both hands should feel cocked “down”, through impact. I honestly think that these 2 things(right side bend, and wrist conditions) are the differences between mid-handicap players, and scratch players.
100%!
Excellent video, Eric 🎉🎉🎉
People who stand up are essentially playing tug-of-war with the inertia of the club instead of actually "swinging" it. It's often caused by a player trying to hit the ball as hard and far as they possibly can. Most people never discover they can actually hit the ball just as far with much less effort but greater efficiency. Everyone always wants to hit the ball as far as possible but learning to hit the ball efficiently sends the ball just as far with far less effort. An excellent drill is learning to hit a 7 or 8 iron just over 100 yards and then slowly increase the distance the ball goes until you reach your normal carry.
Everyone loves a lazy and efficient golf swing but rarely do people attempt to learn how to do it. With efficiency comes confidence and with confidence comes competence and the goal in golf is to become "confidently competent."
Excellent video Eric!
Yes sir! Terrific analysis and I could not agree more with this. 🤘
Good stuff---Im with ya and love the start at 100 and build up a great way to do it!
Eric, your lessons are not only awesome, and I needed exactly this one, but I admire the way your teaching evolves with techniques such as "opposites" and "exaggeration". Most youtube teaching content is regurgitation which is often good stuff, but you really work hard to take it to the next level and I truly thank you for that.
Thanks John---I appreciate those kind words and support. Means a lot to me that you're here with us!
This is just the lesson I need. Thank you so much for all your coaching and instruction, Eric. GOLD
you got it---my pleasure :)
What a GREAT EXPLANATION on this…You answered so many questions here. Thank you! ⛳️👍🇺🇸🙏
Thank you! Our pleasure!👊
The fluid motion and precision in the golf swing showcased in this video are eye-catching. I aspire to develop such technical prowess in my own swing. This video has fueled my determination to become a better golfer. Thank you for providing such a fantastic source of motivation!
I have faith in ya! :)
Great explanation and video to show us this. I totally struggle with this standing up and can’t wait to try this drill at the range.
Thank you!
You are an awesome teacher, just what I needed. Thank you for doing what you do so we’ll. God bless
Appreciate it Tim!
Can you do this same thing but with a driver? My issue is standing up with the driver and I don't stand up with the irons at all
This is a drill..But..If It really helps you stay down can or would you consider just playing like this on the course ? Obviously choking down you would have to take 1 or maybe 2 more clubs..But that don't bother me.
👍Fantastic way to explain it. This video got suggested when I was searching for : a fix for "standing" in my swing. Looking forward to checking out your other vids.
Heck yeah---glad to hear that and have you with us...hope it helps!
Outstanding visual explanation and demo of that drill to keep that side bend through impact and finish! Awesome can’t wait to do that drill !
Thanks bob! Hope it helps!
THANK YOU ERIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT EXPLANATION.............AND RESULTS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our pleasure! Thank you!
OK Eric another light bulb video...outstanding instruction. SO resolving the issue of the lowering and digging into the ground concern of your student is exactly my concern. This right arm and wrist bent back making up for the lowering feel is a very very helpful idea. So would it be right to say that this feels like i am FLATENNING the bottom of the arc ? Feels more like a longer "scrape" across the turf?
I would say that's fair yes!
More on the trail arm/wrist making up for the lowering you may enjoy:
czcams.com/video/EtGRf3FSY34/video.html&pp=ygUhRXJpYyBDb2dvcm5vIHN0YXkgZG93biB0aGlzIHdvcmtz
Once again, an outstanding drill/feel Mr Cogorno..!
Cheers,
William
Thanks William!
Excellent video. I've had this problem forever (and didn't realize it until the last couple years). Managed to play respectably due to reasonable strength and decent hand eye coordination. Now that I understand what to do, I'm old and inflexible. Getting that side bend is very tough. This tip/drill is great because it seems like it's taking the mechanics of trying to create the side bend out of the equation just by forcing you to "go down and get the ball". Can't wait to try it!
Thanks Mike! Hope this one helps your game!
Another great tip Eric and thanks for sharing. I just shared your video with my son.
Thanks! Hope it helps!!
Very good details Eric. Thank you
Appreciate it!!
Was trying to figure this out for the life of me. Thanks you from a fifth year golfer!!!
You got it---hope this serves you well !
I have been trying to figure out why I kept hitting toe shots on my wedges. Not only did this video clue me in, but it made me change the way I'm moving my right shoulder. Just tried it at the range tonight. This has fixed a bunch of issues. Thank you! You're an exceptional coach.
Love to hear that! I appreciate it!!
Terrific lesson! And thanks for the "exercise plan"; 30+ swings a day (or more) emphasizing right side down and chest towards target.
Thank you, Mark! You got it!
Great video! I would always top the ball and I thought it was because I was looking up and not keeping my head down. This video made me realize that I was standing up straight doing the down swing.
Yes!
You may like these as well in terms of the head raising stuff:

This is the greatest tip I’ve ever seen. Thank you 🙏
Thanks John! Hope it helps!
Good description of the combination of lowering the head and turning the shoulders. I've been thinking of Lee Trevino a lot in this regard, perhaps the best visual of increasing bend and turning the right shoulder under. Understanding it is one thing, doing it is another!
Great example!
Excellent video, will make sure to do this on my next range session.
Thanks!
Awesome video, that side bend head lowering tip was something really cool I have never thought about
Thanks! Hope it helps your game!
Thank you. I should watch this before playing or practicing to get better.
Hope it helps your game! Our pleasure!
needed this today. got a bad early extension & have been making it work. need to work on this for a while to permanently get rid of it. thank you
Hope this helps Ronald----let me know how you get on
A great one Eric! I literally advise golfers who ask about the swing, if your trail arm is extending early in the downswing, you are doing it WRONG. This is the #1 (all other positions correct) that will determine a more successful swing. Bent trail arm at impact MEANS you will have to bend (stay) down through impact to get to the ball. Thanks again.
Thanks Mark! 100%!
Thank you extremely informative
Glad to hear it, Susan!👊
Great stuff! Thanks 🙏
Thank you!
Great video, thanks!!
Thanks Ryan! Appreciate ya!
Eric - Great topic. I get a bit tall during the down swing and thin shots or pulls start happening. As @HolyGrailOfGolf stated below, simply slowing down can correct this, and I can play that way, though I love it as a drill to remind me where I need to be.
Thanks Mark--hope this one helps ya!
Dang, that’s good stuff, Eric!! That’s definitely a bad habit I slip into now and then. Thank you!!
Thanks Bob! Hope it serves you well!
Eric a wonderful lesson. Will try tomorrow at range at Rumanza Multan. Thank you sir
Thanks! Hope it serves you well!
J’attaque dès demain!!! Moi qui ai tendance à être étriqué au moment de la frappe et souvent revenir « par dessus », cette vidéo me paraît très très adaptée pour moi. A l’attaque !! Merci!!!
Hope it serves you well!
The sound of your club hitting the ball is so crisp!!
:)
This is my problem for sure! Irons and Driver - EXCELLENT! MY THANKS!
Hope this one helps my friend!
Great video Eric - Would love to hear about shoulder drills to help with driver also.
Thanks Tony! For sure---you looking for backswing or downswing stuff re shoulders/driver
I've struggled with this problem for decades. I can't wait to try this drill. And the whole side bend, right shoulder/hip movement was explained perfectly. Great lesson!
Thanks rick! Hope this helps---make sure earlier pieces are good (face square or closed to path and path from inside) will make this possible
This is a great drill that definitely helped me, as almost all of Eric's videos do. Another thing that helped was standing more upright at setup, then working down towards the ball. Most people bend the wrong way or have too much bend at setup and then they inevitably stand up through the ball. You should start tall, stay tall through the backswing, then bend down/use side bend like Eric talks about, to get down to the ball and really compress it.
👊👊
Thanks for being here with us, Jacob! Glad this one helped your game!
Thanks. I will try this tomorrow Eric
hope it helps ya Will!
@@CogornoGolf Oh boy do I need help.. Lol
Thank you
Our pleasure!!
Clever drill Eric- Very informative session. Be good-Russ
Thanks Russ!!
So good!
Thank you!
I’ve been standing up in my downswing for what feels like decades….this is a great drill, makes so much sense…thanks Eric! Can’t wait to use this in my practice sessions
Hope this one helps guide you Erik----make sure earlier pieces in place (face square to path and path from inside)
Another excellent instruction, especially if viewed with other recent ones like your Tilt Tilt and Turn one. I don't think many players, me included, stand up intentionally. In some ways, it is in part a reaction to the centrifugal force created by the downswing. It may be surprising, but according to a centrifugal force calculator I looked up, a 275 gram iron club head on a 37 inch shaft swung at 92 mph will have a force of 111.27 foot-pounds. So it is understandable that there can be a natural tendency for the body to resist the centrifugal force by pulling back and standing up. Maintaining the spine angle while turning is of course easier for someone young and flexible than for an 82 year old senior like me, even though I'm in good condition and have played for over 60 years. It can also be a lot to keep all the various elements in mind during the swing, namely to tilt and turn, maintain posture, plus to begin shifting one's weight on to the lead leg early, before the end of the backswing, and let the hips shift toward the target, and to swing up with the left or lead shoulder. Done right, it works, so your advice is great. But it's also pretty easy to hit fat if you don't do all these things. Two other observations. My clubs were actually built for someone else and are a half inch long. Would it be right to think that this could also influence one to stand up? Second, in one of your other excellent videos, you told the client/student he was standing too close to the ball and you had him address the ball, then you held the club head in place while telling him to back up several inches and keep his weight on the balls of his feet. Once you pointed this out, I watched several pros who produce videos as they swing and noticed that they do in fact tend to lean a bit further forward than I have been doing. It makes total sense that if you are standing too close to the ball, you will stand up during the downswing to avoid hitting behind the ball. You can of course stand too far from the ball. As you showed that student, there is a correct distance that will allow you to hold your spine angle, your posture, while making good contact.
100%!
Thank You
You got it!
I have video of my swing from last year and even 3 years ago and I pop up during downswing. I’ve always complained on inconsistent contact. I will work on this!
Hope this one helps, Ryan!
Phenomenal details showing what the body does Eric!! Would the feeling of skipping a rock or throwing a baseball underhand be another way to get a proper feeling.
Thanks Frank! Absolutely on those feels!
Thanks Eric as always amazing CONTENT!!!
Very good Eric.
Thanks Ron!
Absolutely love this video, struggle so badly with standing up. I tried this drill and can see difference in recorded swing straight away. My question is how do you implement into your proper swing ? Is it a matter of constant repetition of the drill and it will start to come into your full swing naturally? Love the videos
Thanks Ken! Yes....check out www.cogornogolf.com we talk a ton about it there and have a 30 minute seminar exactly on that topic:
www.cogornogolf.online/pages/seminars
I also go through how to practice to transfer to your normal swing and course step by step here:
ericcogornogolf.podia.com/eric-cogorno-s-ultimate-full-swing-range-practice
Brilliant, thanks Eric , your agent. Keep up the great work
Eric, great instruction as usual. Could you do a video combining these ideas with your long arc follow through drill? A golfer might stay level but must also not stay in torso flexion too long or let the chest hub wander forward at impact or too much after impact. This combination chest rotation, chest extension, and braking through impact is what I see you and the pros do. A video with your take on it would be sweet!
Thanks Jim!
Honestly I can make this really simple....
If you do ALL......all...of the parts of the long arc follow through correctly.....you will do the stuff in this video AUTOMATICALLY!
I agree. You have definitely taught all the key moves and they work! Your videos have helped me see that 3D spinal motion is the secret sauce. It rotates, it left-right bends, and it front-back bends…simultaneously and at the correct time. Spinal rotation is pretty straightforward, it rotates clockwise during the backswing and counterclockwise during the downswing and follow through. Spinal side bend is also pretty straightforward, the spine left side bends during the backswing and right side bends during the downswing. But the front-back bending (flexion-extension) is so very unique! The spine moves quickly in and out of front-back bend at key times, through transition and through impact. Hovland shows it off perfectly. In transition (from backswing to downswing), he goes from spinal flexion to spinal extension to spinal flexion. Chest down, to chest up, to chest down. Then before and after impact he again goes from spinal flexion to spinal extension to spinal flexion (or back to neutral) after the two arms straight position. Again, chest down to chest up to chest down (or neutral to the finish). Does it work? I think so. I added 30 yards to my drives. Thanks EC!
PS: This matches the swing’s purposes too. The spinal flexion-to-extension in the late backswing helps to increase swing depth, makes it easier to recenter the weight pressure (fix the hang back fault), and primes the spine for the downswing. The spinal extension-to-flexion in the early downswing helps to move arms and club faster, promotes a U-shaped swing arc, and makes it easier to guide the direction of the arm motion. The spinal flexion-to-extension in the mid to late downswing to follow through helps to slow down the arm motion (which makes the club move faster), makes the bottom of arc less steep (a flatter U-shaped bottom), and helps to slow the swing down in the follow through making for a safer deceleration phase. Holy moley, the 3D moving spine drives the swing!
Will definitely give this a go. Can't for my life stop standing up and flipping at it regardless how good my shaft and face angles are.
Let me know if this one works for you....bunch of ways to get it done....if your face/path good like you said should be able to knock this out with good exaggeration
good tip Eric, trying this.
Thanks Neil! Hope it helps!
Cant wait to try this!
Hope it serves you well!
@@CogornoGolf all the stuff I've learned from you so far has been great. Thank you!
The cure for the unfolding lawnchair. A plague in my game for many years.
These feels are the best I’ve heard, by the way.
Thank you!
Appreciate it---hope it serves you well!
I like it. I tell my daughters boyfriend the same thing when his swing gets off. He strikes he ball very good but when he has those 5 bad swings a round he stands up on the swing with little shoulder tilt.
Good stuff!
As one of the best 80 yr old golfers currently in the world today I agree with you
thank you :)
I am frustrated about standing up. I don't feel like I'm standing up but the phone camera is showing what I'm feeling isn't real. I am always standing up every damn shot.
Start short and slow and gradually work your way up...exaggerate 100x more than you think...you'll get it!
If not, send us your swings at CogornoGolf.com so we can help you fix!
Hi Eric, fantastic advice, thank you!
I'm 74, right handed and just getting back into golf after 25 years lay-off! Used to play off 2 when I was in my 20's and relate exactly to your advice and suggestions. My return has unfortunately been hampered by breaking my right ankle last year and in part that has me hesitant to put changes of weight on my right foot and then I partly loosing my balance! I'm going up the club range here in Seaford on the south coast of the UK tomorrow and will certainly be using your drill - very good and logical, well done! Thanks again, - will keep you posted as to how it works out, do you have any "weight transfer" and balance drills please? John🙂
Thanks John! Hope this one serves you well!
I think you'd enjoy this video below on weight shift👍

@@CogornoGolf Just watched it Eric - very interesting - I'll see how it works out!👍👍
Have to say that you and John really put the aspect of swing / balance / good strike across so well!
Both of you work together so well - such a pity i'm so far away as I would truly enjoy a session like that!
⛳⛳
Great drill. No problem doing this with shortened grip. I struggle with normal grip. Bent arm and holding angles at impact seems great for players who have flexibility and are able to rotate well through impact. What about seniors who may have less less flexibility and rotation and who probably release angles a bit earlier?
Eric has another really good video about stop releasing wrists too early. really helped my swing alot.
Hey Mike...if you search my name and "senior" you'll see a bunch of resources to guide you through the details of your question!
This makes too much sense. I can’t believe I never thought of this before myself.
:)
Ive touched on this once before. If you start tall you have no choice but to go down. It's the hover also from what I started seeing. Especially tiger on iron shot he will waggle above the ball alot of others do but it's a part of the waggle. Also I think a good drill for the through the ball is go to impact and just flick the ball out there maybe 10-20 yards just to straighten your arms 45 degrees out in front
Yep!
This is my Achilles heel right now. my right foot won't rotate during impact and stuck there way more than it should be. Will hit 100 balls with your drill going forward! Thank you!!!
Hope this helps Tony-----try this too to get rt foot going...
I did a video on that here: czcams.com/video/1T9s2B3FHgA/video.html&pp=ygUaRXJpYyBDb2dvcm5vIGZpeCBoYW5nIGJhY2s%3D
@@CogornoGolf Thank you coach
This drill helped me a lot. Now when I'm hitting the ball, I imagine that the ball is few inches below my feet (like playing at a golf course) to ensure I maintain the posture throughout the swing.
so, if youre closer to the ball what's happened to the extra (spare) length compared to setup? Has it been replaced by the shaft lean? ah, you answered this later in the video!
:)
Any differences at the range incorporating this exaggeration with driver?
Same ideas here for all clubs! Typically, students will have to exaggerate MORE as the clubs get longer.
Can cutting your clubs shorter help as well for this case ?
You COULD try it....I would just practice this way and then stick to normal length.....but whatever works!
Hey Eric, would this also help force you to release the club? I struggle with both standing up and holding on too long resulting in a lot of thin or weak shots blocked to the right.
MAYBE Ryan.....but not for sure, no. Wish I could say yes :) But too many other variables.
If you're holding on too long you likely need to address that directly. Prob some form of tossing or throwing the club RIGHT AWAY to start downswing (FEEL not real). Wider downswing arc.
Phenomenal drill, tried it yesterday after the video came out. My right oblique let me know I haven't been in this position many times. Will add to my winter routine for sure.
I have the opposite problem where my head raises and I sort of stand up on my backswing. I try the drill Tiger does where you squat and get low on the back swing but not sure if that's the solution
You can solve this problem by tilting your left shoulder down more on the backswing with weight forward
Yeah agreed with Ralph.....if you're standing up in backswing you need
1. More left side bend (shoulder down)
2. Make sure your hips aren't moving IN toward ball
These should help

That explains why it never felt comfortable when I had a choke down shot the past 50 years of playing. Getting that right side bend hurts a bit but that’s the ticket to hit solid shots. I use a drill where I hold a club in my left hand pointing down and then try to hit a short chip only using the right hand only. You are forced to have side bend and your left shoulder will have the tilt as the pros. A proper left hip clearing is automatic.
I like that one!
Haha omg I'm a perfect example of that move. Im completely straight at impact, didnt even realise. Too focus on other flaws lol
Lol lots of stuff going on in a golf swing for sure :)
Does this same motion apply to driver swings?
Yes, same ideas here for all clubs! Typically, students will have to exaggerate MORE as the clubs get longer.
Good video Eric and very helpful. PS- trend today is for shorter videos - 5 minutes at most. If same points were made in a shorter time frame, more viewers might be attracted to your very good teachings.
Thank you! Appreciate your support and feedback!
Some players like Bryson D prefers a more upright stance and a steeper swing. It's hard to argue there's only one way to strike a ball considering Bryson is probably a top 5 in the world player.
Agreed---lots of ways to make it work!
Again when you look at all 3 from the behind view, you can see how all 3 have the right knee, hip, shoulder aligned. When you get to that position the everything else takes care of itself. Don't get why instructors don't teach from that position back. Then you follow thru from there and you get the weight forward,sidebend, plane ,compression.
:) Hey Tom! I know you're liking that trail side move!
I will say this....I've been studying golf swing stuff for about 15 years or so now...
And every time I think I've found "the answer" I always realize later that what is MAGIC for ME....or SOMEONE.....wont be for EVERYONE.
I hear ya....the moves you are mentioning are IMPORTANT!
But so are a lot of other things in the swing :)
hope you are well
Fred Couples stands up.
Every good swing will technically have "standing up"/extension through the ball...but it's paired with rotation and trail side bend to keep the body's inclination to the ground stable👍
Just have such an upright posture with good rounded, stacked shoulders, and upright turn that you have to go down to the ball to get it. Bend over at address, stand up during the swing. Stand up at address, bend over during the swing.
that's right
Wanna get down? Simple. Ur trail knee needs to go down. Exaggerating that was a eureka moment for me.
👊
Appreciate you being here with us, Rich!
Thanks for that and thank you Eric for your great lessons I just tried throwing that knee down you're absolutely right
When i replayed video of me hitting i noticed my knee went towards the ball instead it should not be going any closer to the ball, i looked up a video on youtube and literally that same day at the range i had my Eureka moment
@@R3cklessExowhich video?
You going back to Florida soon?
Back in FL now!
Hi Eric I’m so great full for your video. Exactly my issue. I’m 66 and recently back to golf after many years raising kids and working on a career. So desk work and sedentary lifestyle featured. In my playing days, say 30 years ago, I was a high teens player. These days when I start my round I tend to play pretty well for 9 holes. By hole 10 my back is screaming and I start standing. Toping and hooking becomes the norm. Take yesterday for example. 18 front 9, 10 pts back 9. This is week in week out. Today is a recovery day with lost of painkillers. No way I could keep posture no matter how hard I try. Please help!
Thanks Mick! I hope this one helps ya...
I'm not sure exactly what you need BUT I will say when I went to see and worked with a physical therapist it helped me A LOT with how my body was feeling! Takes some time and money but well worth it for me....maybe will be for you too!
Unfortunately there is never a fix that is one size fits all thing. I admit I tend to rise up in my downswing and sometimes I top the ball and sometimes I miss it entirely. But when I focus on not rising up during the backswing...meaning trying to keep my body from moving upward during the downswing, I usually end of driving the club into the ground about 1 to 3 inches behind the ball and totally blowing the shot. What is the fix for that?
100% agreed Andrew----big key to figure out any reasons earlier causing the issue. I always mention the importance in working with coach for this to identify for you and the common ones that would cause it
1. Poor setup posture (hips back)
2. Steep downswing shaft
3. Face open
On the fix....I also mention that in the video if you watch back....
1. Shorten right arm and bend back right wrist more in downswing
2. Make sure you are turned (rotated enough)
I also went over that in more detail in this older one here: czcams.com/video/Lbluc0YCwlE/video.html&pp=ygUgRXJpYyBjb2dvcm5vIG1hdGNoIGFybXMgYW5kIGJvZHk%3D
And here in detail: czcams.com/video/EtGRf3FSY34/video.html&pp=ygUbRXJpYyBjb2dvcm5vIGJvZHkgc3RheSBkb3du
Hope those help!
I would say you’re not getting your weight to your left side. Think about throwing a ball. We usually step forward with our lead foot and plant it before we come forward with our arm with the ball. Do the same thing, and try to hit one ball in front of the ball on the ground. This works on any club you hit the ball while on the ground or a very short tee, except the driver, that you want to hit up on. Hope this helps you. It help me years ago, and I’ve pass this on to countless others, that it’s also helped…
You may have already done it but I need a video about not leaning behind the ball with the driver
Hey Keith....like hanging back on downswing? or you talking setup/backswing
I would have thought standing up at the top of the backswing was more of a problem
BOTH big problems!

Most people think address is impact

Did you just fix my swing?? 😅🎉
:)
Standing up is your bodies natural way of counterbalancing. It's perfectly normal to stand up and that doesn't have to be a problem. Most of us spend way too much time trying to learn unnatural body movements, when we should be focusing on learning ways to hit the ball straight using natural movements.
:)
I dont need no stinking drills! Practice, you talking about practice?
:)
Thinning is my miss, taking this lesson to range today 🫡
Hope this one helps, Frank!
Problem: Poor contact from early extension is because at impact you are taller and farther from the ground.
Key question: what is the opposite of taller and farther?
Answer: shorter and closer.
Solution: choke down a lot to make the club "shorter" so that you can get "closer" to the ball.
Gosh, I love it see such clear logic and problem-solving applied to golf in such a user-friendly manner. A+ Eric. Thank you so much!
👊
