In this riveting episode from Eric Cogorno Golf, the team delves into the art of preventing the dreaded standing up during the downswing in golf. It's a common affliction that plagues many players, leading to erratic shots and frustration on the course. The key revelation here is maintaining that crucial inclination to the ground, ensuring a solid strike every time. The ingenious solution presented is the right foot back or bowler drill, a game-changer in the quest for a more consistent swing.
As the team breaks down the mechanics, they highlight the detrimental effects of the "bad swing" - where the foot, knee, hip, and shoulder all move forward, disrupting the swing sequence. By honing in on the foot and ankle, the drill focuses on shifting the foot, knee, and hip back while keeping the shoulder down. This simple adjustment sets the stage for a more powerful and controlled swing, with the right shoulder elegantly gliding past the right hip in the follow-through.
Flaring the feet and knees out is emphasized as a crucial setup move to maintain the desired inclination and promote better shoulder movement. The drill's effectiveness is evident in the progression from shorter iron swings to longer clubs, showcasing improved consistency and ball flight. By prioritizing shoulder position and foot placement, golfers can achieve that elusive tight draw and say goodbye to the dreaded fats, thins, and pushes that haunt their game. This drill isn't just about technical prowess; it's a game-changer that promises a smoother, more controlled swing and, ultimately, better results on the course.
