The Trick To Hitting Fairway Woods Off The Ground #shorts #golf #golfer #golfswing #ericcogorno

Eric Cogorno demonstrates a specific technique for hitting fairway woods cleanly off the turf by focusing on two post-impact checkpoints. By ensuring the belt buckle finishes over the lead ankle and the club head is fully extended four feet in front of the ball, golfers can achieve the same compression and strike quality as pros like Rory McIlroy.

• Move your belt buckle over your left ankle (for right-handers) by the time you reach the post-impact parallel position.
• Fully push the club head and arms away from your body so they reach maximum extension about 4 feet in front of the ball.
• Intentionally clip the ground during practice swings to ensure the low point of the arc is correct.
• Perform three deliberate practice swings focusing on these checkpoints before attempting to hit the ball.
