Adam, thanks, I like the way you teach, very fun, and enjoy the game, even learning. Nice to meet you on the internet, and thanks for helping me to get better in this fun sport golf.
I have watched many pro instructors including Ledbetter books when you had ti be there this video is the very best of everything i have watched they usually just cover a small section of the whole picture Your complete overview is so beautifully described concentrating on a wide connected takeaway to narrowing in the downswing to a wide follow through and not focusing on hitting the ball is a real swing changer for most of us never would have got this so important move without your help many thanks
Now, here it is! A real golf professional! So much knowledge so well simplified. Would love to have a real lesson with this Pro. Congrats! Awesome video!
7:14 - This is the smartest thing I've ever heard on this subject. All my life, I've felt like a failure because I can never remember all the "Make Sures" during the swing.
I appreciate your holistic approach to the golf swing rather than focusing on one "magic" tip. I also appreciate the "how it should feel" tips and the latitude you give for people with less than optimal flexibility.
@@Scratchgolfacademy Yes, extremely helpful, thank you. Your instruction are in terms that I can understand and apply. Your best tip for me is the wide on the back swing to narrow on the down swing. Going wide stores energy. Getting narrow releases energy. I think of it like a figure skater doing a spin and bringing the arms closer to the body to increase spin. As advertised, the result is freer and faster rotation and more power. The concept is so simple that I was able to immediately apply this on the course.
Great videos! The visual aids are the key. I find the Hogan waggle helps me get the feel of snapping it at the bottom. Now I know what he meant by rehearsing your swing. Many Many thanks!!
Absolutely brilliant video - the content, the presentation, tempo, conciseness... everything. Finally - a golf teacher who respects your time and attention.
There's a lot to work on here. Grip pressure, take it back wide, come down narrower, rotate body but then slow down to allow the club to speed up, whip it off the tee with soft hands. And then you have maybe half a second to get the timing and sequencing correct. Yeah that might take a couple of practice swings in the backyard to iron out! :) Thanks Adam, great video!!
I had cancer a few years ago lost 42 pounds most of it muscle, i relearned the game doing your videos 1 on the range 1 at the green 2 times a week. I’m now 20lb heavier and nicely settled at a 8 handicap. Thanks Adam your simple but effective lessons are superb, I’ll be trying this next
I like the way instruct each player to play around, and construct your own swing...I will take this video and do what you say, and practice in small steps, building up to full swing....This might sound strange, but when I visualize in my head, the tips I saw you perform....I can see and feel what your instructing, in my head, weird I guess, but it helps me when I start in person, on a particular swing thought.......Leland
Another great lesson Adam.. Driving is my strength, but what is your opinion on right foot pressure instep as you get to the topi for your backswing for extra yardage. Thanks again Adam ! Dan
Dan, I agree, there will be pressure in the right foot at the top of the backswing. On force plates there is a fairly wide range on this though, so I wouldn't force it. Hope this helps. Best, Adam
Hey Adam, your videos are fantastic. I used to apply muscle power for a 280y drive and had a difficult time with lots of pain for a day or 2. Now using the body swing. Everything perfect.
Great timing...I have just clicked with this action in the last few weeks and stated hitting irons and hybrid much better. I am still struggling with driver though but I think what you say about trying to find that right amount will get me there. I swing far more within myself yet hit ball just as far now. Great videos. Simple and effective. Regards from Stirling, Scotland.
im new with a driver, bought myself one 2 weeks ago, because 230yards with a 3 iron or 3wood is not ideal on the tee of a par 5. The max i get with a driver right now is 280-285 yards. I hope i can put some extra in it with these tips ( i overswing to much and my wrists are too locked up) Thanx for the tips, going to work on it asap :)
I gain 30 yards just by looking at this video hahaha..... and then by Saturday I'll lose it at the driving range😂 do a video of finding your swing and keeping it forever. 😂 for those people like me that claim we have old timers at the age of 49. Thanks for all you help.
I've been softened my grip and gained accuracy in the recent play Reached max distance of 203 metres Will test the water flicking afterwards. Targeting to gain another 10 meters Thanks Adam!
I need to watch tthis video many times , i can hit the ball a mile with my practice swing, it sounds like a cyclone. When i drive the ball t goes nowhere. Great advice.
With the right side stretch drill, I couldn't feel stretching until I was waaay too far back on my back swing (looked like Kyle Berkshire a tad) . Is this indicative that I'm doing it wrong or that I have the flexibility to swing harder?
Craig, I'd say yes. It does depend on what your current tendencies are. I tend to whip my hands at it too much, so, for instance, I need to key on less 'flick' as I hit it. You may very well be different. All the best, Adam
Great video when I hit a poor shot I've not taken the club away low and slow. You pick the club up and by getting too much arms and hands plus overswing.
I have yet to understand fully why we want width in the backswing. It would seem as long as the downswing is done as you show here one should be fine. I feel when I stay very wide in my back swing it feels like I'm swinging a 2x4 going back with no flex in any part of my wrists and arms. Just feels stiff. I know we don't want to have the swing and arms break down completely going back. My timing feels the best when at about 9 o'clock my wrists will start to hinge and I have a feeling of pushing the length of the shaft up and back. Hope this makes sense lol. Love your "no one thing fits all players" approach to instruction! Thank You!
It appears that at the start of the downswing the chest is bumping the lead arm, driving the lead arm and the club, and creating a slinging of the club??
John, these are personal choices for each player. Some, like Fred Couples, like to take it more upright going back, then drop it in coming down. This can produce a lot of power. Others, sat Matt Kuchar, prefer more the style of generally one plane throughout. Hope this helps. Best, Adam
Very nice! Im currently working on having loose wrists and arms. I can do the slow shots out to 250 but I want to be able to go full swing but that is when all the demons creep in. I still feel loose but my body becomes out of sync. Any thoughts on that from anyone?
Stack and Tilt (I think) is very misunderstood. It's really based on the "Golfing Machine' book, and prioritizes a centered pivot in the backswing. Hope this helps. Best, Adam
I kind of wish the video's title were different. Maybe "KEYS TO MAXIMIZE YOUR DRIVING DISTANCE". To hit drives like Tiger Woods, or for that matter Adam Scott, requires that the muscles used to swing a golf club to be quick twitch. A person cannot teach muscles to be quick twitch. That is inherent.
Wow 😮, really good good lessons. the Best !! 😃🤩👆🐤 Would like to bear in my mind the difference, the explanation ! [memo from this lesson] - back swing의 1단계인 takeaway를 왼팔을 쭉 펴지도록 밖으로 길고 넓게 보내서 올린다 (not mere take-back, but sure take-away) - back swing은 길게 올리고, down swing은 좁게(narrow) 즉 몸 가까이에 근접시켜서 내림으로써 클럽헤드 스피드를 가속한다. - 일반인들은 narrow back swing을 하고, wide downswing을 하는데... narrow back swing이 오바스윙을 유발하는 원인이다. 좁은 백스윙으로 채를 top에 올리면, body motion에 필요한 space가 없게 된다. - 그래서 narrow back swing은 wide downswing을 유발하고, wide downswing은 path를 역전시킨다 (out -> in 으로) - Tiger Woods의 스윙을 보면, 가슴과 팔이 함께 움직인다. (백스윙 때, 결코 채찍질하듯이 뒤로 손을 휙 보내지 않는다) - 백스윙을 할 때 너의 전완(forearm)에 약간의 압력을 가해서 양팔의 간격을 좁혀라. - 오른쪽 겨드랑이가 떨어져서 wide 해지는 것은 좋지 않다. (우측 팔꿈치가 spread out 하면, 스윙 width 가 작아진다) - 오른쪽 갈비뼈가 늘어나는 느낌을 가져야 한다. * 뒤로 움직일 때 클럽의 그립부분이 gently 뒤로 밀려나가게 해야 한다. - cocking을 해서 위로 올리거나 - 작은 스윙을 하되 손목을 hinging 해서 채가 올려지게 하거나.. 둘 중 하나로 채가 올라가게 한다. - top에서 내려오는 것은 자연스럽게 일어나게(happen) 한다 - control이 안 되는 것이다. 손목을 아주 부드럽게 하고, 작은 물체로 놀이하듯이 움직인다. 타겟을 향해서 약간 움직인다는 기분으로 하며, bounce가 일어나게 한다. - 처음엔 작은 규모로 여러 번 스윙하면서 감을 익힌다. 볼이 pop out 하듯이 나가게 한다. - 손목이 극도로 부드러워야 하며, 이런 작은 스윙이 습관처럼 되어야 한다 (약 6개월이면 습관화하여 마스터할 수 있음) 컵에 물을 담아놓고, 클럽페이스에 물을 묻혀(dip) 샷을 하면서 물이 튀겨져서(flick) 팍 퍼져나가게 (splash forward) 하는 훈련이다. 이런 mental picture를 그리면서 연습할 것. *대부분의 사람들이 공을 힘껏 치려고 어깨와 팔을 너무 빠르게/일찍 돌려버리는데... 이렇게 하면 에너지 전달이 안 된다 (transfer of energy is not possible). Slow down 하면서 타격 zone 에서 안정성을 유지하면서 빠르게 앞쪽으로 뚫고 나가야 한다. 그렇게 에너지를 전달해야 한다 (whip the energy out there). - Adan Scott 와 Fred Couples 의 스윙/샷을 보고 익혀서 습관으로 만들기 바람 (두 사람의 style 은 완전히 다르다. 자신의 것을 개발해야 한다 )
Interesting do you realize you have another video hitting driver further getting club further behind on the way down. Your actually saying two completely opposite things for distance.. I really have to stop watching golf instruction on TH-cam
Ok, I had a look at this video and I’m happy to comment, not to argue but to try and help. Two areas where you might sense contradiction. 1) I briefly say to ‘keep the club in front of you’ as you take it away. A good backswing is still WELL inside the target line, we just want to avoid the common pitfall of snatching the club behind the hands in the takeaway. 2) Almost all of this video is viewed from face on, the premise being the downswing should narrow, or load, then the wrists should pop near impact. If you stand in front of a mirror face on you’ll notice that when the club is more behind you early in the downswing (do it in slow motion) it will make the arc seem more narrow. So, loading the shaft (face on) as outlined in this video should work in tandem with it being more behind the body (as viewed down line) Hope this helps
@@Scratchgolfacademy I'm not going to lie, it is kind of fun to outdrive the kids. Now if I could only figure out how to navigate the last two feet that'd be great.

Do I want my right shoulder higher like this at the top of the back swing? I have been trying to keep my shoulder more level in the back-swing.
Yes, it should be higher (shoulders perpendicular to spine, viewed down target line) Glenn.
Best, Adam
Adam, are the key elements the same for irons?
Yes John, I'd say so.
All the best, Adam
I'm off topic but I was wondering about swallowing the club could I just not take the club up as high? I mean we take it up only to drop it back down.
John, these are personal choices for each player. Some, like Fred Couples, like to take it more upright going back, then drop it in coming down. This can produce a lot of power. Others, sat Matt Kuchar, prefer more the style of generally one plane throughout.
Hope this helps.

Steve,
I'd just work back and forth from a 'control' setting, to loose and free. In time you'll feel what works for you.

Interesting do you realize you have another video hitting driver further getting club further behind on the way down. Your actually saying two completely opposite things for distance.. I really have to stop watching golf instruction on TH-cam
Please tell me which video that is
Ok, I had a look at this video and I’m happy to comment, not to argue but to try and help.
Two areas where you might sense contradiction. 1) I briefly say to ‘keep the club in front of you’ as you take it away. A good backswing is still WELL inside the target line, we just want to avoid the common pitfall of snatching the club behind the hands in the takeaway. 2) Almost all of this video is viewed from face on, the premise being the downswing should narrow, or load, then the wrists should pop near impact. If you stand in front of a mirror face on you’ll notice that when the club is more behind you early in the downswing (do it in slow motion) it will make the arc seem more narrow. So, loading the shaft (face on) as outlined in this video should work in tandem with it being more behind the body (as viewed down line)
Hope this helps

I'm 61 years old and I average 290 with a 20 year old v foil driver. How? The Mike Austin swing. Period.
Glad it's working so well for you.

@@Scratchgolfacademy I'm not going to lie, it is kind of fun to outdrive the kids. Now if I could only figure out how to navigate the last two feet that'd be great.
