Best golf channel man. As a beginner, this is some I constantly am trying figure out
Thanks very much. Hope you continue to make good progress.
Best, Adam
I love these lessons I have been trying all the elements out as described slowly, working on quality of swing before quantity .....so good well spoken and easy to understand.
Thanks very much!
Best, Adam
You always pick right subject that all the golfers need to know. Thanks

thanks very much. Stay well yourself.
All the best, Adam
Thank you so much for this lesson. I was having some negative issues with my swing. This helped me work it out. Thanks again.
Richie,
Thanks for the note, and glad the video helped.
All the best, Adam
Easy to understand and follow. Nice tips to experiment with.👍
Thanks John.
Best, Adam,
I love that the structure. By breaking down the ideal, showing a few variations in the PGA, and then offering a drill to help put it all together, I have everything I need to get to work on it (or at least to start). Love the videos!
Thanks Chase, hope you make good progress!
Best, Adam
Hello Adam, I am a new golfer at 58yo. I have been studying and preforming the drills and content of your course at the Scratch Golf Academy.
Your course has really got me excited to learn and play the game. Thank you!!
Thanks for the note Roy, and very glad you are enjoying the game.
All the best, Adam
Adam, really fantastic channel. I love your teaching style, it has really helped my game! Thanks!
Thanks, glad to hear you are seeing improvement.
All the best, Adam
Great video! I’ve struggled with this and constantly tinker with it.
Thanks, glad you found it helpful.
All the best, Adam
I wanna thank you Adam for your videos. My game has gotten much better by watching and practicing what you teach in your videos, again thank you
Roger,
Thanks for the note, glad you are making progress.
All the best, Adam
Adam, Thanks for all the pointers, going for a round tomorrow so hopefully try some of these out.
Thanks Chris.
Hope you make good progress.
Best, Adam
I agree with all these comments. Adam, your channel is easily the best on UA-cam. Your videos are the ideal time length, instruction is super clear, the showcasing of drills is solid, and your swing is beautiful. Really really good channel. I watch every day. 😎👍
Very kind of you Mike!
All the best, Adam
Great video as always Adam. More good information
Thanks James
By far, the best online golf instruction, correction, best golf instruction, period. Congrats Adam! Do you do multi-day schools at the facility in Naples?
Thanks very much Carl.
Yes, I do all sorts of teaching and customized programs here in Naples. To get some feel for it you can go to www.adambgolf.com I can also customize programs.
Best, Adam.
Complicated issues explained plainly and succinctly. Thank you sir, for bringing the fundamentals of golf within my reach.
Thanks for the comment Greg, glad you found the video helpful.
Best, Adam
best video on stance I have seen, thank you!
Thanks very much Gary.
Best, Adam
Another good video that explains a few basic but important things, that 20+ handicapers usually ignore. I watch most of your videos, and get to learn a lot about the "why" and "how" in the golf game.
Terry,
Thanks, I'm glad you find the videos helpful.
Best, Adam
I came here for one thing. To see how your front foot was positioned.
I am satisfied! This is exactly what I've been doing ever since I started "naturally swinging".
I use to square up, and that literally took me off my path, instead now I just pick my target from behind, and I line up to that target. My front foot is slightly open and I can clearly see the ball in my path. Biggest change I made besides letting my shoulders relax and my arms go limp.
You're the best online my friend, thank you very much.
Thanks very much Johnny, and glad you've sorted out a stance that works for you.
All the best, Adam
Excellent videos! Thank you.
Thanks, glad you found them helpful.
All the best, Adam
Thanks a lot Mr. Adam so hepfull. Best regards!!.
Thanks Fadel!
Best, Adam
my game is so much better thanks to this video! i used to stand so far when I would put, and now im easily hitting par
Glad it's going well for you Colin.
All the best, Adam
You are my best teacher
That's very kind of you. I hope you make good progress.
All the best, Adam
Great video and love the shoes :)
Thanks, they are FootJoys
Best, Adam
Makes sense to me. Do you have any videos on how to hit a fairway wood and hybrid. I hit the ball all over the place with these clubs.
Thanks Patrick.
There are several videos on those topics at the UA-cam channel.
All the best, Adam
Love your videos. I'm in Florida in a few weeks, might hit you up for a lesson !
Thanks very much. If you are anywhere near Naples I'd be happy to have you out for a session.
All the best, Adam
Ah such a shame, that's about 3 hours from where I'm staying in Kissimee.
I generally shoot mid 70's. Through the years I've developed something that works good for me. If I'm trying to play a fade, I'll stand a little closer. This promotes a more upright swing, and allows me to slightly cut across the ball for the desired fade spin. If I'm trying to draw the ball, I'll stand a little further away. This allows me to swing more around my body, and approach the ball with more of an inside out path. I will say this... Standing closer to the ball makes solid contact easier with my irons.
Thanks for the comment Jamie.
All the best, Adam
Sounds a lot like my game!! If I move half a foot away, all of a sudden I draw all my irons! It’s like a moving slider to determine draw-fade 😂
@@GolfGuy32 Exactly! It works! Of course, I also slightly adjust my grip, to eliminate the pull, on the fade swing, and the block, on the draw swing. This way I have a very predictable ball flight, and don’t have to worry about a 2-way miss. Being able to safely predict your ball flight is the key to golf, in my opinion.
Hey Adam, think you are one of the best golf coach on youtube, was wondering if you might swing by somewhere in southeast asia to conduct golf clinic here, give it a thought ya. cheers
Thanks very much. Regards visiting Asia, I would enjoy that. It's challenging finding facilities, and groups of people to attend etc
All the best, Adam
Excellent content Adam! I am 72” tall with a 77” wingspan. Does disproportionate arm length change how close you should stand to the ball?
Likely you'd stand a little farther from the ball. Maybe hands hang lower, and with help of a good club fitter, slightly shorter clubs.
Hope this helps.
Best, Adam
very strange way to list your height
Hi Adam, using your drill would you say that when you drop your right hand off the club then it hangs in line with your left hand when you're the correct distance? It looks like that in the video but thought I'd check. Your vids are the best! Cheers.
Yes, that's the idea Ryan.
Best, Adam
I started standing closer today...on range of course...booya...cant wait to get back out there
Hope it goes well for you Derek
@@Scratchgolfacademy me too
Golf is my drug and I can’t seem to get enough
Love your videos! I just adjusted my stance in relation to the ball a couple of weeks ago (got a smidge closer whereas I really used to reach) and my drives got a bit looser and longer.
Shaved off 10 strokes since I watched through your UA-cam uploads in the last few weeks. No joke - I've been preaching you to my golf buddies! Thanks as always for another great lesson. Cheers from Canada. 🍁
Rob,
Thanks for the comments, and really glad you are seeing such improvement.
All the best, Adam
nice lesson Adam, just curious how do you get to do this videos and no golfers are coming up on you during your video?
Thanks Brian.
Mediterra is a private club, but I still have to pick the rights times
Best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy ty for the quick reply Adam you, and Tom sugato are my favorite videos to watch
Thanks Brian
It's interesting that Fred Couples Driver Stance has his arms closer to "impact position" than some other players. It's a bit similar to Bryson D. Experimenting with aligning the ball at address with the driver head just inside the sweet spot might help .. at least at the range while finding the best alignment for a given individual.
Thanks, I agree, a little experimentation is needed to find the right mix for the individual.
Best, Adam
I see why PGA chose you to be the best instructor for 2 year, you are really awesome and thanks for these great video
That's very kind of you Mustafa.
All the best, Adam
The "car in the garage" idea and just the visual of hips driving forward before following through with upper body was literally a game changer in my swing as a brand new golfer! How fun for it to snap all together and see the ball driving beautifully straight into the air ;) Can't wait for next round of golf!
Erin,
Thanks for the comment. Glad you are seeing such good progress with your golf.
All the best, Adam
You are a great instructor. I wish I could have you for a few lessons. If you ever visit Melbourne Australia please be sure to contact me...I'll shout you a meal and a few beers and you'd be welcome to stay over, I'll show you around :)
Thanks very much!
All the best, Adam
Will it be breaching a rule if one wrap red electric tape on shaft........having that as a aid to my setup, pointing were I should place my front toes ball.....distance. Each club having red tape then. As I understand the rules dont alow altering the dynamics of a club/equipment to make it easier. ????.
MJ,
I'm pretty familiar with the rules, but not clear on that one. Clearly that wouldn't alter the playing characteristics of the club, but if you are 'building a stance' with the help of a measuring device that might not be allowed?
Hope you find the definitive answer.
Best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy
That make sense. How about this..........Most shafts have brand tape wrapped around for logo and specification. Name of shaft, stiffness and so.......if one per say remove such tape and put it on desired spot.....I was just wondering. I cant be the only guy thinking of this....am I? Distance from ball is such a critical aspect for consistency and crisp shots......! Steel shafts design pattern........the shape from top to bottom.....im sur you noticed......it have a 2inch shallowing. Like rings.......gradually going thinner.
Part of my Q is......will laying down the club on ground, grip between legs.......vertical....shaft to ball......m sure you know what I mean. Players hold out club infront of them aiming.......on green they aim with it and discern slope.....that would be same as what I intend to do
I always thought I was lined up correctly, bent correctly, ball centered on the clubhead, correct take away, slice. Years of slice, got some stick on club face paper, found that 95% of my strikes were on the toe. realized that I wasn't lifting my head , but was leaning on my toes, when the club was behind my head I just leaned back an inch and toed the ball.
Thanks for the comment. I'm glad you got the feedback you needed to improve.
Best, Adam
My drives continue to trail off to the right. Time to change the grip?
I'd definitely consider it. Just changing the grip may not be enough, practice (at less than full speed) snapping the club face shut as you approach impact. The goal would be to hit some smother hooks to get the general feel.
Best, Adam
Bonham House yeh mine were always going right as I drive. I realised that as the club was coming through the ball that the club face is open causing the spin on the ball. I am trying to practice snapping my wrist back as it was at set up. When I get this correct they go straight.
Thanks Green! Yeah, timing of the snap.
It’s almost like a batting position in the batter’s box in baseball
Thanks for the comment Jim
Best, Adam
Adam you say 2 time PGA teacher of the year but the text on the screen says 3 time teacher of the year which is it?
Darren,
My area of the PGA was kind enough to give me that award for a 3rd time last year. Some of the UA-cam videos were made before that.
Best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy makes sense love the videos keep it up
best tip is don' t be standing too close to the ball after you've hit it
Peter,
That is indeed true.
Best, Adam
Peter Last,I'm usually a long way away from the ball after I have hit it, but most of the time don't know what direction it went. But that is another set of dogs.
Jim furyk has the weirdest backswing but a great player
Agreed on both counts.
Best, Adam
I'll put Miller Barber up there with Furyk
M
Thanks for watching the video Chris
Best, Adam
John Daily for example. Works for him but...
Basil,
Certainly John Daly is a rare talent, therefore hard to model in some respects. As you say, each of us has to find our own 'style' to some extent.
All the best, Adam
An old joke: I stand too close to the damned ball after I’ve hit it!!
Ha, I hear you Keith
Best, Adam
Well im not sure same length clubs are an idiosyncrasy. I woukd say Jims goofy looking back swing is a idiosyncrasy. Not taking offense but there is data and sound logic to single length clubs. There is no benefit to Jims back swing he just makes it work. Decent video and thanks for taking the time to make it.
Thanks. I agree, most people couldn’t play at all with Furyk’s backswing. Regards the clubs, there is clearly a give and take with those type things (a 35 inch driver would be super easy to hit, just huge loss of distance etc).
All the best, Adam
Scratch Golf Academy Agreed a 35" driver would sacrafice too much distance over accuracy. The irons though are a bit diffrent in that the swing is improved and the offset altered making up for the lack of length. They aren't for everyone but for beginners and people with less time to practice it definitely makes it easier with a single set up. Im not steeped in tradition but I do respect the rules and love the game. Hit'em straight and thanks for the reply.
Thanks Phillip
Me hit ball hard.
Sounds good Stu
Best, Adam
I wouldn't pick on Bryson DeChambeau's clubs either, I believe he's ranked 22 in the world right now and just hoisted another trophy.
David,
Yep, he's definitely coming on. Seems like a nice guy too.
Best, Adam
Fairly confident you completely missed the point David Carr---COMPLETELY DeChambeau is not only a pro but a top tour pro. These videos are meant for folks that are not pros , folks that have either tried numerous things and failed, or, folks that are just starting and looking for some good tips. See the difference?
I hate to rattle your confidence David Geraci but you are COMPLETELY WRONG. Not only do I get the point, I couldn't agree more. I was simply taking the opportunity to bring to light my friends stellar play as of late.
Rattle my confidence? lol You must be a liberal, they lack much logic . How do you ascertain that I missed "your" point, you don't have a point, and why would that have something to do with my confidence? I actually just started playing golf 3 months ago and already shoot 90--I would say I have nothing but confidence ahead of me. Why are you even here? Oh yea, because of your tour pro friend , hmmm, yea you missed the point dude. The point is for novices not to copy something a top tour pro does that is not in the norm for a novice to get better---ya see lol
WRONG again David Geraci lol. You're making a career out of being wrong. No liberal here. I am a lifelong conservative republican, Trump voter, Fox news watching, middle aged white heterosexual male. Would you like to try for "strike 3" sir LOL You seem to be having difficulty with basic comprehension. Maybe you should get off the golf channels and look for some remedial English classes. Oh and no one is buying that "I just started playing golf and I'm shooting in the 90s stuff. LOL MAGA...
Was told with the driver hands need to be out past the brim of your hat.
Thomas,
That’s not the look I see with most great players.
All the best, Adam
You're right.
I stand too close to the ball... after I hit it
Sadly that's true of most of us Scott!
All the best, Adam
Adam. I am so thicc I need to stand two club lengths away when I tee off.
Well John, I guess you’ll have to do what works, but I trust you are mostly joking.
All the best, Adam
Hopefully after you’ve hit it you should be further away from it.
That's important too!
Best, Adam
Cheap expensive putter
Not sure what the comment means?
Best, Adam
Boy he wears a loose glove.
Why are you such a tiger hater sir?
Faraz,
I’m not, I’m a big fan of his. Not sure how you could get that impression, as I mention him regularly in videos, and did a whole video on his many swing changes, and speak very highly of him.
No worries.
All the best, Adam
Faraz Naseem...... I have been following Adam for 2 years....and he has never made disparaging remarks about Tiger. I think an apology is in order.
Faraz ,take your BS somewhere else.
I agree with all these comments. Adam, your channel is easily the best on UA-cam. Your videos are the ideal time length, instruction is super clear, the showcasing of drills is solid, and your swing is beautiful. Really really good channel. I watch every day. 😎👍
Thanks very much for the comment.
