In This Video, You’ll Discover:
• Exactly how to fix early extension in your golf swing — including the timing mistake 80% of golfers make when they try to correct it
• Why pushing your hips back too early in the setup or takeaway guarantees your hips will fire forward toward the ball — and what to do instead
• The precise moment in the golf swing (late backswing into early transition) when hip depth should actually be created — modeled after Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy
• A simple at-home golf drill using your bag that gives you instant feedback on your hip depth and butt line — no extra equipment needed
• The “hips back, core down” feel that separates consistent ball strikers from players with chronic early extensionand poor contact
• How the Swing Coach AI golf coach app provides real-time golf swing analysis after every rep — like having Eric standing right behind you on the range
• What the belt buckle rotation (forward, up, and left) looks like in real time — and why it’s the essential second piece after you establish hip depth
Most golf swing tips for fixing early extension tell you what to do — push the hips back. But in this golf lesson, Eric Cogorno walks through when and how to do it, which is the real reason most golfers can’t make the fix stick. Drawing on a breakthrough he had with two students at a recent golf school, Eric explains why starting with the hips too far back at setup or early in the takeaway actually causes the very problem you’re trying to eliminate. The golf swing coach insight here — waiting until the very end of the backswing and into transition to create hip depth — is one of the clearest, most practical explanations of this move available. Pair it with the bag drill for instant at-home feedback, or take your golf swing analysis further with the Swing Coach app.
