Welcome to Eric Cogorno Golf on YouTube!
My goal is simple: help you understand your golf swing, practice with a purpose and play better golf.
Here you'll find clear, actionable golf instruction on swing mechanics, driver distance and accuracy, iron play, ball striking, fixing a slice, short game, putting, practice drills, course strategy and golf equipment.
I'll help you understand WHAT to work on...WHY it matters...and HOW to practice it.
I've been coaching golfers for nearly two decades through in-person lessons, online golf instruction and golf education. I'm also a co-host of School of Golf on GolfPass, where we take a deeper look at how the golf swing works from start to finish.
I only recommend products I've personally used or thoroughly researched. Some links may be affiliate links.
Let's get to work...

Hey guys, what if every swing you hit came with an actual number telling you how close you were?
Most practice sessions are full of guessing. You THINK that one felt better. You're pretty sure that one was closer. But "pretty sure" isn't the same as knowing.
Swing Coach gives you a real score โ 1 to 10 โ on how close you are to a neutral position, after EVERY single swing. Not a vague impression. An actual number you can track, rep after rep, session after session.
That's the difference between hoping you're improving and actually seeing it happen in real time.

Hey guys, if you want to hit it solid, straight(ish) and far enough, your trail shoulder has 3 questions to answer: How? How much? When? ๐ฏ
Today's video is all about the TRAIL SHOULDER MOTION.
Generally speaking, if we want to hit the ball solid, straight (ish) and far enough, we need to learn to make our trail shoulder work DOWN... AND... FORWARD.
The questions are How? How much? When?
In this video I answer all of those, plus my favorite drills and feels for your downswing, regardless of what end of the spectrum you're on.

Also, if you haven't already, please take a moment to take advantage of the free 14-day trial of our new Swing Coach app.
It's an AI golf coach we're helping develop to give you feedback on each swing like I'm standing right next to you coaching you myself. It's already AWESOME, but you're going to be BLOWN away by what's to come in the next 6, 12, 24 months.

Hi everyone, Mary here. If you've ever hit a perfect drive on the range and thought "why can't I do that every time," Marc told us almost that exact thing before his school.
Here's what he said beforehand:
"I watch all the videos of yours, and I understand the theory, and once in a while I can get it correctly on the range with the driver, and it is amazing but most of the time I screw it up and the drives are just not as long as they should be."
That's one of the most common frustrations we hear. Understanding the theory and actually executing it consistently are two completely different things and the gap between them is usually where golfers get stuck for years.
After his school, here's what he sent us:
"I played the best round of my life today at my home course. I shot a 77. From the driver to bunker shots, chipping, and putting, it was a complete transformation of my game."
Occasional good swings becoming a repeatable, consistent one is exactly what two focused days is designed to close.
If that "sometimes it clicks, mostly it doesn't" feeling sounds familiar, this might be worth a look ๐

For our 2027 Florida golf schools, we got 1 spot left for January 28-29, 2 spots left for February 18-19. If either of those timeframes works for you, worth deciding sooner rather than later.

Knowing MORE about the golf swing isn't always the same thing as getting BETTER at the golf swing.
A lot of serious golfers already know plenty.
They've watched the videos.
They've taken lessons.
They know their common miss.
They've heard the terminology.
But when they get to the range, the question becomes:
What do I actually work on today?
And more importantly...
How do I know if it's working?
That's where feedback becomes so important.
You don't need another ten swing thoughts.
You need to identify the ONE thing that matters most, understand what you're trying to change, and get enough feedback to know whether you're actually making the change.
That's one of the reasons Swing Coach has become such a useful practice tool.
It helps bring the WHAT, HOW and FEEDBACK together in one place.
So instead of spending your practice session thinking about golf... you can actually practice golf.

Hey guys, it took me 20 years to fully learn this with driver. I just saved you most of that time. ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ
A lot of golfers come in to see me who STRUGGLE with driver. The contact isn't as consistent as they want, the direction is off, or they just don't hit it as far as they think they should.
Often, they tend to have very SIMILAR issues causing this.
A BIG one is the inability to GET THE SPEED OUT TO THE CLUB HEAD. I see a lot of "everything moving at once"... pulling in... "hold off" style releases.
Compare this to the best drivers I see. They learn to SEPARATE the arm/club movement from the body movements (read that again). They THROW instead of pull in. They "let it go" instead of hold on.
That's exactly what today's video is all about. I show you a simple routine to follow to learn to DO all the good things we want with driver and FIX those issues holding you back.
WATCH THE FULL VIDEO BELOW๐
Please watch and implement the feels and drills I show. I promise, if you're struggling with driver, this will help big time!

If you want to REALLY understand what your wrists should be doing in the golf swing...watch this one ๐
Hey guys,
Yesterday's video was all about WRIST ACTION....
A) What each wrist is responsible for
B) How to hinge each wrist
C) How much to do
D) When to do it
E) Drills and feels for all of the above, to simplify everything into something simple
So if you like wrist motion details, you'll love this one :)
This is the exact lesson I gave to a recent student who was struggling with the wrist hinge. He wanted the details, but he also wanted something EASY to go back to so he'd know he did it correctly.
Hope this one helps you as much as it did him.

Hi everyone, Mary here. Got some news last week that I don't think will ever stop meaning something to us. ๐
Eric was just named to Golf Digestโs Best Young Teachers in America 2027-2028 list.
That makes six Golf Digest recognitions for Eric over the years, including Best Teachers in Every State and the 50 Best Teachers in America.
But honestly, the lists aren't what make me proudest.
We spent our first year filming almost daily to nearly nobody watching... fifty views, a hundred if we were lucky. Eric wanted to quit about 100 times.
But he kept teaching.
He kept learning.
He kept showing up.
And that's still the Eric you guys see today.
The same teacher who has always cared about making golf instruction easier to understand, giving golfers something useful to work on and helping them play better.
The recognition is really nice. But knowing the work behind it makes it mean that much more to me.
Proud of you, Eric. ๐
And grateful to everyone who has been along for the ride.
If you've ever wanted to take what you've learned from Eric online and work on your game with him in person, you can learn more about our upcoming golf schools here ๐

If you've ever looked at a swing-analysis app and thought, โOkay...but is this actually RIGHT?โ this one's for you.
Golfers are right to be skeptical.
If you're going to change something you've been doing for years, the feedback needs to be useful enough to trust.
One of the things that stands out about Swing Coach is that the feedback isn't just a video for you to stare at afterward.
It gives you specific information about the movement you're working on...and lets you see how you're doing from swing to swing.
That creates a much better practice loop:
Make a change โ swing โ get feedback โ adjust โ swing again.
And you don't have to wait until your next lesson to find out whether you're getting closer.
That's the part that can make practice so much more productive.

If you struggle with FAT SHOTS and PULLS...this is a big one. ๐
Hey guys,
Yesterday's NEW live lesson video with my student Chris is a BIG one that I see a lot with our students.
His main issues were FAT SHOTS and PULLS to the left.
The big thing we saw was the upper body moving too far forward toward the target (causing the pulls) combined with an early release (causing fat shots).
We needed to learn to keep the upper body more back (tilted) while still getting the hips and weight forward.
This is where A LOT of amateur golfers struggle.
They either have EVERYTHING go forward or EVERYTHING stay back.
Yesterday's video should help you fix that.

We are working hard on this app with the Swing Coach team and a few other top YouTube golf coaches to create an expert-level coach that you have available 24/7 that will give you the same feedback I would give you if I was personally coaching you.
It's being trained by hundreds of hours of my coaching and all of our videos.
It's like an Eric Jr :)
I think you will be BLOWN AWAY within the next year or two how freakin good this thing is.
Hope you love the app and yesterday's video helps you!
Talk soon,

You already know Ericโs golf instruction...but starting September 21st, youโll get to see him teach the game in a whole new way. ๐
Mary here.
School of Golf starts streaming today, September 21st on GolfPass, with Eric joining Blair OโNeal as the new co-host.
www.golfpass.com/watch/school-of-golf/chapter-1-thโฆ
YouTube is great for finding the answer to a specific problem.
But this new season of School of Golf gives Eric the opportunity to take you through the golf swing from start to finish.
How the pieces work.
How they fit together.
And what you can actually DO with that information in your own swing.
So instead of just learning one more golf tip, you can start seeing how everything connects.
And the best part?
Itโs still Eric.
The same golf instructor who has spent years making complicated swing mechanics easier to understand and giving golfers clear, actionable things they can take to the course and practice.
I believe this new season will be a great supplement to what you already learn from Eric here on YouTube especially if you want to go beyond fixing one part of your swing and better understand how the whole thing works together.
School of Golf starts September 21st, exclusively on GolfPass.
I can't wait for you guys to see it.
