If you struggle with driver distance, weak fades, or hitting it too far right, this golf lesson explains the exact problem and the fix. Eric Cogorno breaks down the secret that helped him gain 50 yards off the tee in a single year: keeping the head and upper body behind the ball line while still getting the weight to the front foot. This golf swing key allows the club to deliver from low and inside, which is essential for any golfer who wants more driver distance and better contact. These golf drills also cover the natural arm rotation move that squares the club face and eliminates the weak slice that side bend alone won't fix. If you leave this video without trying the alignment stick drill, you're leaving driver distance on the table.

What You'll Learn:
• Why getting the upper body too far forward during the downswing kills driver distance
• How keeping the head behind the ball line allows the club to deliver from low and inside
• The side bend move that keeps the head back while the weight shifts forward
• Why extension, not forward bend, is key to maintaining head position
• The alignment stick drill for training proper head and weight position
• How to progress the drill from no backswing to half swings to full swings
• Why keeping the head back alone can still leave you with a weak slice
• The natural arm rotation move that squares the club face for more distance and less curve
