Being a good golfer is one thing - to be able to be so relatable to the rest of us is where the real talent lies. Matt and Adam are both excellent at this. Watching them gives me the confidence to play better and want to be better. WhaddaPairOfPlayas!
Hi Adam! I discovered your channel thanks to being a subscriber to Matt's channel. I decided to take a look at some more of your videos over the past 48 hours. I am delighted to subscribe to your channel, too. I am aged 68 and have played golf for 34 years - half my life (except that I had a break of almost 10 years when work got in the way). Now retired, I live in England and play three times a week. My home course is rated 71.4 with a slope of 127. My lowest handicap would have been 9.6 under WHS. The UK used to have a different handicapping system. Now, I have a WHS index of 14.7 but believe that I could still get it down by a shot or two. I am an optimist, by nature! My personal best score was 74 gross; and in my forties, before my playing break, I frequently shot under 80 gross. Now, I am a high 80s shooter with occasional scores around 82-83. I can no longer drive it much beyond 200 yards (I am five feet seven inches and weigh 155 pounds with cervical spine problems and arthritis.) However, your videos have convinced me that I do not need more length off the tee. I just need a sharper short game to reduce the number of double bogeys! You have a great temperament and my friends say that I do, too. So, doing better, from inside 100 yards, is the key to scoring lower more consistently. That will require a sharper focus on each shot in order to reduce the rank bad ones. I like your "no nonsense" editing style. You just show every shot and do a voice over to explain what you were thinking at the time. In saying that, I take nothing away from the Playa's contrasting style. I enjoy his content very much; and his move to the USA should prove to be a source of even more entertaining material. Anyway, after this long post, I need to continue to catch up with your back catalogue. Please keep posting!
On the subject of green reading, I think it's said by coaches that most amateurs under-read putts. I'd call myself a decent putter, consistently under 2 putt average but I think this year I'm going to add 0.5 to 1 ball of extra break and see what happens
Two fantastic golf channels that have helped me understand that ego impacts scores more than technique sometimes. Little putting tips and tricks could be some fun videos. Maybe a minute long video where you give a quick tip about the putter face, reading the green, or even a drill or two that you do before a round of golf. They could be a fast paced video which could change things up away from the course vlog content that you have truly mastered.
Your shot at 4:23 scared the crap out of me...i thought i was going to see a club head tumble out into the fairway. Looks like boulder city in there. GL and thanks for the content.
Great collab. Two of my favorite golf channels, and you've both helped my game tremendously. I look forward to the rest of the collabs, and holy smokes I want to hit the courses and play some golf now.
Great to see the 2 of you playing together! Very interesting to watch the different ways folks get to similar scores. Yes please on your putting routine/techniques and any drills you might use would be great.
Great video as always Adam. Love seeing you guys get to play together! I love both of your channels because not enough people talk about the mental part of the game and it's so important. Between that and putting I think people could cut more strokes from their game than any equipment out there. Also, I'm a big admirer of your putting skills, so I would love lots more putting content!
NASG, it took me quite some time to get use to watching you hit the ball. But geez you murder the ball off the tee but you put so good. Love you and Matt's videos.
Great vlog. Fun to see you and Matt Together. Shows you there's more than one way to get it done. I am in he same boat as you, distance challenged, so short game has to be great. Like you, I pretty much keep it in front of me, try to miss in the right spots and rely on chipping, pitching and putting to score. Short game and putting vids would be great, no quicker way to shave strokes than to sharpen the short game. 70% of your scores are from 70 yards and in. Working on my backswing/take away and transition to improve my distance. Unfortunately for me golf season is still a few months away. Always rooting for you to play your best.
You’ll be uncomfortable. I’m currently bathing out of a large bin filled with water through a house pipe by splashing water on my body with a small bucket.
I used to think I was pretty good at reading greens playing in Canada but the greens in Thailand confuse the hell out of me... luckily there's caddies to read them for you.
What's up boyfriend!! Waddaplaya!! I found Matt while I lived in NZ and now back in the USA. Very cool to find your channel playa! Well done and thank you for the content with Playa In Chief!!
Love your videos... do you really consider your shortgame to be your strength? ... I would say it is your driving and your general ability to keep the ball in play... you are excellent in that regard.
I'd say his short game and short memory are his biggest strengths by far. He typically drains multiple long putts per video and his lag putts leave him with very few three putts. Combine that with forgetting the last hole before you start the next one and it's easy to see how he can score right a long with someone hitting 300 yard bombs while he's only plunking them out there 230ish off the tee.
Is Matt pulling a Dechambeau? By this I mean he's not playing standard lofts. Dechambeau 7iron is the same as my 4. Yes he cream his 7 way further than my 4 but the comparison is closer and makes you feel less inadequate when you realise his lofts are massively different to you and me.
Is South African Matt related to Lithuanian Matt? they do look alike so maybe twins separated at birth? Loving the collab - perfect showcase of playing golf and scoring with different swings and strategies👏
I watch both your channels regularly and I am in Arizona and I played that Wee Ko Pa and Quintero a few times. I wish I was there instead of those other 2 playas who were asking what your youtube channels were. I emailed you almost a few months before you came to the US of A Playa but you never replied to me ! Playa you diss-appoint me. If I knew you were going to buy a place in Arid zona, and play on some courses here - would have loved to meet up and play a round. Then we could have both met the belligerent guy at the bar who offered his wife to you!
Your follow through is abit dead you need to make it more consistent so your ball flight stays on track slightly better than it currently is! You need to follow through the whole way! It’ll add more straighter shots
The higher handicapper! You see as he swings through the ball! The hands go abit everywhere! He wants to carry on through the line and bring his hands up! Completing the swing and you want to stand and hold the final position for a good 3/4 full seconds and get into the routine of doing so! I used to do the same and found when I fixed the follow through I was getting straight/cleaner hits because I was fully committed to the swing and the cleaner ball striking comes with! Hope it helps guys! Golf is a game I’ll never master! Far from expert but just trying to help when I can
Adam - your backswing is too long. you need to look into it and that is the reason your ball contact/striking is not constant due to the imbalance. Just take a second opinion.

lol i think the 18th tee was moved moved up slightly there bro. Otherwise we hit a couple monsters
You and Adam (or you and Matt, depending on whom is reading this 😀) are two legends. Love how you play off of each other.
So funny I too was doing the math on your second shots
@@mattparsons946 you are
@@jfranklin8190 i don’t know if they were teaching mathematics in Canadian schools when adam was still a scholar
I thought it was an elevated tee shot from up high. Maybe he was just high. 😂😂😂

Been waiting weeks for this content. 2 of my favorite golf YT’s together. This was great. Can’t wait for more!
collab of the century lets go!!
Matt never seems to get tense and hit a bad shot. He's always loose and free swinging which is something I strive for every shot. Great video Adam!
I only get tense when the weather is not good. Otherwise waddalife

2 of the best golf youtubers in the world right now
That’s not a lie
Two LEGENDS that have helped my game tremendously
I saw a video of you for the first time. Indeed, more short game videos. Great game. Start watching your videos

Loving the collab and the new graphics Adam everything is looking clean! Can't wait for the Pebble video.
I love the similarities with each of your videos. Exactly what I was expecting.
Talk to you Monday, sir. Looking forward to it.
Great video, mental looking course, just plonked in the middle of a desert!
There is something relaxing about your videos that makes them enjoyable
What-a-collab!
Damn your swing is the epitome of getting “the wrong formula but the right answer”.
Like I wrote by Matt's channel the course looks nice and there are some holes which are attckable!! And you guys would make a great scramble team!!
More putting videos and tips are always good
Nice job fellas! 120 yards and in is where us club golfers need to improve.
Truth
Seeing Matt's channel definitely also inspired me somewhat in starting my channel as well!
What's up boyfriend!! Waddaplaya!! I found Matt while I lived in NZ and now back in the USA. Very cool to find your channel playa! Well done and thank you for the content with Playa In Chief!!

Hey Adam, what kind of putter do you use?

Your commentary is amazing. Keep up the fantastic epic work

New to your channel. Nicely done. I’ll be subscribing.
Awesome stuff. Hope you get to visit Matt overseas someday as well!
Hell yea, a Adam and Matt double header = all kinds of awesome
Hey Adam have you ever thought of hitting a draw with your short irons into the green? Nice vid
yea you might not have crazy distance but you more than make up for that with putting. Would love to see some putting tips/green reading and routine
Dude is killer on the greens really helped me
the duo we never knew we would get
The new overlays are rad.
Yes! Putting videos please!
Awesome stuff!
Did you guys time releasing the video playing with each other at the exact same minute?
No. We are connected telepathetically
If by "do you want more putting content" you mean consecutive holes where you angrily walk in a made putt, HELL YES keep that train rolling my guy
The only time adam was wrong was when he thought he was wrong
This is so awesome! Wadda playas
I enjoy you both. I love your humbleness. It’s your greatest strength. Tell me how!
Those greens are huge
"oh Adam you're going to have problems" then ends up short waadaplaya :-)
Either you are 6 inches tall or my judgment on measurements is grossly off. “I leave myself with 6ft” from 33ft 😂 Great video per usual sir!

Love you guys
I love you
Wow,met the Big Dog, fair play fella…

how tall is he?

I think driving and putting is his jam. That’s why our scramble at Tahquitz was so electric
No putting content. We want you to find a Trackman and do a video on club gapping the distances of all your clubs.
I would like some stripping
