    Great feeling for sure!!! The constant motion drill that is being alluded to here has been the best way for me to feel what solid contact and body motion should be. Just a matter of feeling that on every shot. Great vid!!!!!

    This is gold, I really like the way Travis explains the swing. I'm with him on this, hitting the ball is a result of the rotation of the body and reacting to the weight of the club, makes sense and much easier to create lag.

    Great video, Eric and Trevor! It seems “float loading” has gotten a bad rep in some instruction circles, but I agree that dynamically loading (and shallowing) using fluid wrists against the weight of the club is the most natural, athletic, and powerful way to swing a golf club. It can feel truly effortless when you get it right.

    And it can even be done with a pause at the top – look how little Cameron Young’s wrists are set at the top when he takes a slight pause.

    Most ams try to forcefully put the club in positions, cranking their trail wrist into full extension and keeping it there, instead of just relaxing and letting it “fall” into the right position.

    Mr Cogorno and Trevor – excellent instruction as always. I really picked up on the 'last 3 fingers of the left hand' mention. How 'bad' or misguided/misunderstood has instruction been over the decades? I'll be 67 in April, still fit & healthy, and playing to scratch/low handicap. Things could've been so much easier – aargh..!!!
    Cheers,
    William

    The problem with saying you shouldn’t try and creat lag and then advertising and marketing a lag trainer like the precision impact contradicts the whole video for me.

  7. Dave Cohn

    The real key to maintain lag until late in the downswing is to initiate the transition
    via lead hip external rotation which in turn will rotate the the lead knee.
    About 1/2 of top golfers have their wrists set by 9:00 going back ; almost all the rest do so by the top. There is really no need to float load .

  8. Harold Pohoresky

    Great point you are making when you say the more you can get the club shaft perpendicular to the spine the faster you can swing the club head. I think this is a big point that is missed in the minds of many. That is why shallowing out the club (ie.e getting club shaft perpendicular to the spine during the transition ) is so critical to creating club head speed. The faster you can move the shaft by getting it perpendicular to th spine in the downswing, the faster the club head the further the ball goes.

    My dear Eric,
    thank you for this great video.
    This is exactly this, where I work now in the moment.
    I play with dead hands, only with my body.
    I have no slices now, only hooks by bad shots.
    I´am longer.
    The transition loading also I try. I must find the exactly moment,
    where I must start the power and the muscles.
    Perhaps it is to early now.
    When I will "fired" with the arms, I sliced.
    Thank you very much, Erich

    Can this same concept work with the driver swing? By the way I had a decent swing that had me scoring my lowest and started watching a bunch of videos. That had me screwed up. Not yours. 🤦🏻‍♂️ But a buddy turned me on to you and I’m slowly getting back where I need to be. Now I tell everyone about you when they need direction. Thanks!!!

    Sergio is possibly the worst model imaginable for those of us who lack his talent
    Sergio has always been a great driver of the ball . But he tees it up very low , hits the ball low and sometimes takes a divot in front of the ball with a driver because he hits so much down on the ball.
    Teeing the ball low and hitting so much down will work for only a very, very small % of golfers

    As a teacher, viewing this entire series of videos has been fantastic. Trevor manages to explain a lot of things in much simpler terms than some others are able to. Very easy to translate to students who aren't bio mechanics majors. Science backs this up. Not everyone will feel it the same way but a large majority of people should benefit in one way, shape or form. Will absolutely help using some of these explanations and drills with my students and will certainly not be afraid to share credit where credit is due.

    Oh can’t believe we didn’t get a “that’s about as solid as I can hit it” so deserving
