From one UA-camr to another I love some of the content you are putting out. I can see Fred Shoemakers influence, no surprise you have won teacher of the year on a number of occasions
Danny,
Thanks very much!
All the best, Adam
Two of my favorites! Thank you to both Adam and Danny!⛳️🏌🏽♂️❤️
Just some? The rest rubbish??
Liked, I teach golf every day, this golf video is just on the side (it reaches many more people than your one on one sessions).
Thanks very much
Im a 9 handicap golfer, been struggling with an over the top swing with driver and long irons for years now. Tried this drill yesterday for about 2 hgours and started to "feel" the in to out path. Played today in a comp and although I only scored 34, I eliminated my fade.
This is the best drill ever. Thanks very much.
Nice going Karl, glad you made progress.
All the best, Adam
You're starting to be my go-to source for swing lessons, Adam. Thanks for the great content and good luck to you.
Thanks very much.
All the best, Adam
This has helped my swing tremendously. Not only fixed my path but added distance.
Thanks Jacob, glad to hear it.
Best, Adam
This a sensational drill & makes so much sense! Thanks Adam.
Hey Adam, just wanted to say a big thank you for this genius drill! I have pretty much tried everything under the sun to stop coming over the top but nothing has worked. In the end I learned to live with my slice. I play off 18 and manage to score under 80 now an again when Im putting well but deep down it is disheartening every time I see the ball slice to right and seeing just how much distance I am losing. This video came in my youtube feed and I became intrigued. I immediately grabbed a 9 iron and went to a local field to try it out. I was utterly shocked at how well it worked. I mean I was stunned! I just couldn't believe how straight I was hitting the ball and not only that it seemed to fly further with much less effort. This drill has transformed my swing and I will be using as part of my daily routine from now on. Huge thanks and respect to you Adam - Subscribed.
Thanks very much.
All the best, Adam
excellent vid......love the drill
Thanks very much
I stumbled upon your channel 2 hours ago. I just realized I've been watching all your videos for the past 2 hours and didn't even realize I've been watching this long! Such great content! Thanks a lot for sharing!
Thanks Trevor, glad you like the videos.
Best, Adam
These drills work! Practiced these this past weekend and could see and feel the difference already. Thanks Adam!
Glad to hear it Patrick.
All the best, Adam
Fantastic video. I play off 3 and have been struggling to find a drill that CONSISTENTLY helps me get shallow. This is amazing and can be done on course...or in dining room, kitchen, shower, bedroom...you know...golf on the mind. Thank you again!
Thanks for the comment Thomas.
All the best, Adam
Adam, I’ve learned more from you over the last two years than I have my instructor. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks Joe, I'm glad the videos have been helpful to you.
All the best, Adam
It would be nice of you to give the proper payment to Adam, for helping you as much as he has, as opposed to you giving money to an instructor that hasn't helped you nearly as much.
Adam needs to eat to....
Adam,
Thanks for your incredible videos! YOU have been the primary reason that my golf game has improved! Additionally,
your immediate release of information, without waisting any time, makes it simple for me to remember your lesson.
I am not surprised that you have been awarded "The PGA Teacher of the Year" three times!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU!
Thanks very much!
All the best, Adam
Love the drills Adam, fixing the over the top is so important as many golfers I see still have problems with it. These work great. Cheers
Thanks very much.
All the best, Adam
THE BEST GOLF INSTRUCTOR EVER!.... Yes, you ADAM! ... Keep up the great work! ... (even though I have now progressed well passed this piece of instruction!)
Thanks a lot Simon!
All the best, Adam
Wow. That is such a great drill. It gives you the feeling to play the shot. I play off 12 but can get too far inside and over the top. This gives you such a great feel of where the club should be. Thanks very much. Simon
Thanks Simon, glad you liked the video.
All the best, Adam
Adam, stating your vulnerability through the years as you learned was a soothing touch as I listened and learned. Thanks for the tips and lesson!
Thanks very much Ron.
All the best, Adam
Adam, played yesterday after a few practice sessions utilizing your tips. I gave up golf 4 years ago and now I am happy to get back to it. Your assistance has been helpful HOWEVER...I lift weights and my shoulders continue to interfere and want to dominate my down swing. I start off dropping hands properly...then after 4 holes I struggle to get back on track....I can compete with the guys but get frustrated with this slow burn....HELP!....LOL....
You're my hero Adam..love your useful videos! Thanks much
Thanks very much Gayle.
All the best, Adam,
Wonderful tips
Thanks Lenard
Thanks, Adam very good video. The mental side is almost all of the battle, really helpful and works
Thanks James.
All the best, Adam
That is so cool. I will try this. Thank you Adam.
Hope you make progress John
Best, Adam
This is awesome!!
Thanks, glad you liked the video.
Best, Adam
Thank you!”
You’re welcome
Great video. I will try this weekend at the range. Hope to fix my swing plane someday.
Best of luck Zach.
Thanks, Adam
Great video. Thank you. I really like listening to you. No wonder you won PGA teaching awards.
Thanks very much.
All the best, Adam
Thanks for sharing that drill Adam I've been practicing it and it feels really good. It just really feels proper now and smooth
Glad to hear it JM
First rate info as always. My game is improving thanks in no small part to your channel!
Thanks for the comment Greg.
Best, Adam
Watched this and immediately went out the hit the skytrak. Hinged above the ball to start the swing (2:20) was an amazing change in path for me. Thank you so much. You have a new subscriber!
Thanks Scott, glad you made progress.
All the best, Adam
Subscribed! Coming over the top has been my Achilles heel for so many years and watched many UA-cam videos but yours hit the nail. First, whipping the club too inside during backswing as you described (watching my own swing videos I have been doing this), second and the most worrisome to me is that I attack the ball too hard and forget letting the swing do its job. I am going to remember your drill of tossing the club out without looking at the ball and pre-cocking the wrist before backswing next time when I am in the practice range. Thanks coach!
Daniel,
Glad to hear you are making progress.
All the best, Adam
Definitely a Fred Shoemaker “Extraordinary Golf” vibe. I am impressed.
Thanks Jay. I’m fortunate to have spent a lot of time around Fred, he’s inspiring
@@Scratchgolfacademy He is. Ive spent some time with Fred the last few years in Carmel Valley. Where do you teach?
Naples, Florida
Wow that was a great tip ,I'm off to the range now, thank you so much.
Thanks Jamie, I hope it goes well for you.
Best, Adam
This is a fantastic drill. It gave me a feeling in the downswing that I don't t normally have, I am an over the top ball sticker and almost everything goes to the right... Thank you!
Thanks Tony, glad you found the video helpful.
All the best, Adam
Great drill, thanks!
Thanks John, glad you liked it.
Best, Adam
Good stuff, Adam!
Thanks, glad you liked the video.
All the best, Adam
I have added this practice to every swing! Release my mind, it’s probably the hardest and easiest thing to do!! Once you stop thinking about the ball it all comes together! Wow, no tension no worries just free swinging! Remember the target is out there, not down there! Thanks Adam, great insight again!!
Thanks Ken, glad you liked the video!
Best, Adam
Excellent
Thanks, and glad you liked the video
Best, Adam
You just blew my mind dude...Thank you!!! I may just play golf like this . I'm hitting it so well and pure that I'm laughing out loud. THank you!!
Glad to hear it Phil!
Best, Adam
Good job. Thanks
Thanks James.
Best, Adam
Excellent 👍
Thanks Christopher.
Best, Adam
Hi Adam. Wonderful, simple effective drill 👌 Can one use this drill for all clubs including driver? Thanks
Thanks Cesare. Yes, the drill could be done with different clubs, just stay soft and smooth.
All the best, Adam
Enjoyed watching, and comparing it to my swing philosophy and session's I have with myself a lot. I probably define his drill more precisely in my own way, but I think there is a lot of good demonstrated here.
Thanks Curt,
Hope you make good progress.
Best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy Yep, Adam, 'class' always in session! Always some thing to look at and morph a swing thought and/or key's together. Never bored here ... As Curtis Strange once said, "I learn something new everytime I go out to the course."...- so true! I look at pro and different swing's a lot, and I think your drill here, can help some pro's, even.
This new question is a very good one, I watch a lot of video and I don’t think I’ve seen this, but I want to know how to take my swing from the driving range to the golf course because I do really well at the range but not even close on the course. Thanks
Sorry you are struggling. It's a question that puzzles just about every golfer.
Naturally it's a bit easier to find consistency on the range that the course because we get so many more reps on the range (at least regards gaps between shots) that we can usually get our timing going. Of course we are usually more relaxed mentally on the range, less fear of consequences.
The boring, but correct answer is 1) to continue to work on a sound golf swing. Simple, sound mechanics are much easier to repeat than complex swings that rely on timing to work well 2) quieting the mind....less conscious thinking while we swing, and less stress over outcomes.
Hope this helps.
Best, Adam
Another excellent video. On my major problem, which is coming over the top with the club. I will practice lifting the club in front of the ball and then taking it back slowly, without worrying about the outcome. Great video, keep them coming.
Thanks Charles, hope you make good progress.
All the best, Adam
Absolutely love your content, Adam!
Can I/should I be using this same drill with my wedges and driver also? Thanks Adam
Thanks Michael.
Yes, the same principles (drills) would apply on any full swing.
All the best, Adam
Hi Adam, you are the best golf instructor, ever! ... Good or bad, I hold you personally responsible for me spending 6-12 hours every week, on the course. ... My handicap is now floating around 7-10, and you are the instructor who is responsible for me dropping from 36+ to 7-10... You have so many great lessons... As I improved, one of the many things that resonated with with me was: "Driver: you need to get that thing down there, and if you 'shorten-up' the course, believe me, the game will become a lot easier..." ... And then I worked on the irons, sand pits, and short game, and putting.... ... ... Thank you so much again, from Simon, and son Teo, at The Sands, in Torquay, Victoria, Australia! ... You are the best... We will meet you some day soon in Florida... 4 years away...
Simon,
Very glad to hear about your progress, amazing progress I should say! It would be great to meet in Florida one of these days.
All the best, Adam
Would love to come and see you Adam. We live close to Charlotte, NC. The wife has never been to Florida, great excuse for a lesson!
Greg,
Happy to have you. I’m in Naples (usually fly in to Ft. Myers(, which is a nice part of the state.
All the best, Adam
Excellent swing thoughts and pendulum theory. It’s exactly what I struggle with. Thank you.
Question: I feel as if I have more control of direction if I think my swing power comes from my left shoulder( lead), but it also throws off my sense of balance. In order to have a quiet mind, what besides for lots of practice do you focus on?
Thanks Chon.
Different swing keys are fine, if they produce the results (moves) we are looking for. Maybe try some at half speed to work on tour balance.
All the best, Adam
Best in to out drill. I've been struggling on and off with coming over the top a bit steep. I have watched so many videos on it but nothing really worked. they all seem to just say drop your hands etc. I tried this drill and the feeling instantly clicked!
Glad to hear it Nick.
Best, Adam
Good lesson. Thanks
Thanks John.
Best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy I like the way you teach. I think one of my former coaches is in Florida his name is Jimmy Ballard.
I believe Jimmy Ballard is in bad health. Hopefully he’s doing OK though
@@Scratchgolfacademy sorry to hear that. Thanks for letting me know.
Enjoy your videos. I am tall and cannot find instruction for my body type. Would be great if you did a video on golfers who are not average height. Especially need help on setup and swing plane. Thanks.
Thanks, glad you like the videos.
I don’t think the techniques are much different for a tall person, assuming the clubs are well fit. Likely you’d be more bent forward at address, but it’s still about trying to deliver the club to the ball according to its design.
Generally, tall players have an advantage in creating speed, but more challenges with plane etc.
Sorry I can’t be of more help.
All the best, Adam
I used this drill on the course during play today. I was hitting my iron so much better. No deep divots, gained so much in distance.
Glad to hear it Hung Yen
Best, Adam
Please make video on Ben Hogan Swing.
Thanks Sachin, I'll try to get to that.
All the best, Adam
Adam can you do a video and how the club shallows out without your wrists getting too flat on the downswing. Thank you
Thanks, I'll try to get to that.
Best, Adam
Question, does this hing or cocking action work with a driver? For some reason I come over the top on my driver and not my irons.
Steve,
It does apply. I did a UA-cam video recently titles 'How to hit your driver from the inside' that you might find helpful.
All the best, Adam
Do you have a good drills or vid for getting through the swing and finishing balanced .my bad shot I will end up on my back foot and come across it very much so with driver no matter how much I try to get over and out thanks will
Thanks Will. Try this video ua-cam.com/video/NYEPOc8FCyc/v-deo.html
Best, Adam
Scratch Golf Academy thanks for the reply
Adam, you do a fantastic job of not rolling your wrists open on the takeaway and wrist hinge (closer to a Jack Nicklaus). I'm in between you and a wrist roller which causes me to snaphook at the worst times with my driver and hooking my long irons. Do you have a drill for that problem or is this it?
Steve,
First time I've been compared in any way to Jack! I have a number of videos at the channel that deal with the takeaway, hope you find them helpful.
Best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy Lol. Well, something is better than nothing. Cheers!
What course is this? Looks amazing!
It's the Club at Mediterra in Naples, Florida. It is beautiful, and I'm fortunate to be there.
All the best, Adam
Thanks for the response! When I first started about 10 years ago I played Tiburon but I don’t remember the course that well because I was rarely in the fairway. I really enjoy your videos!
Tiburon is a tight course!
Glad you've enjoyed the videos
@@BakerImageGroup Mediterra is a million x nicer than Tiburon. Tiburon is one of the most overrated courses in Naples. Calusa Pines and Mediterra are the two nicest courses in Naples, IMHO
he reminds me of Ken Venturi
Thanks Robert, I'll take that.
All the best, Adam
I've been having massive over the top problems now for 5 years. I've seen pretty much every video on YT on how to prevent it. I've only manage to use two, which have worked for me. This is one of them. However, the problem I'm having with this drill is the number of times, I've topped the ball. Right off the tee, I'm OK because I'm teeing it up. But on the fairway or in the rough, I ended up topping it 30-40 % of the time.
I’d practice it without the ball making the loop AND brushing the ground
Best, Adam
Does this work for all clubs?
Yes Ron
Thanks, Adam
Adam. Im a 15 year old golfer who hasnt got had much lessons. Im finding it difficult to a) find a decent rhythm in my swing, I end up trying to put power into my swing which I know is not right.
b) thus lowering my chance of a sweet contact and c) losing loft.
Can you perhaps link me to a couple of videos that can help me on that. Thanks.
Try these two videos at my UA-cam channel “Golf instruction-How to get that easy swing with effortless power” and “How to start the golf downswing correctly”
Hope these are helpful to you,
Best, Adam
It’s truly amazing what happens to swing aesthetics when you just imagine tossing the club out and to the right without a ball. Adding the ball just completely destroys my ability to do it.
Stick with it Derrick, you can make progress
Best, Adam
Matt Wolf must had watched your video.
Dean,
It does seem that way!
All the best, Adam
My over the top was 100% early shoulder rotation making the club get in front way too early.
Glad you’ve sorted it out Ashley
@@Scratchgolfacademy I wouldn't say 'sorted' but headed in the right direction. Is your golf swing ever really fully sorted?
No
Way this year i started to coming over the top of the ball😩 e'm i getting old🤔 😬
You can do it!
The printing on the bottom of the video covers up the ball and whatever else is on the ground.
Does this drill work for driver, too?
Chuck, yes, I think it's a good drill for the driver.
Best, Adam
i hope with this drill all stop being over the top i try everything excepte that drill
Thanks Pierre, hope you make good progress.
All the best, Adam
starts at 2:16
Sorry you didn't like the video.
Best, Adam
My issue when not coming over the top is that the club face is too open
Keith,
In that case I'd experiment with grip changes, then just put your attention to snapping the face shut, regardless of what else happens.
All the best, Adam
Haha
Thanks for watching the video
Best, Adam
does this guy ever stop talking to draw breath?
Watching the video is optional
Shut up and get to the point..that’s why people jump around
Jason,
It’s a free country, watching my videos is not mandatory (although the channel has around 60 million views, so some people like the videos)
No hard feelings, Adam
Completely useless quit teaching golf
Wow Stew, you must have really hated the video!
Best, Adam
