I've been using this for the past few months and man did it make a difference in my game. For years I was always trying to lift the ball off the ground, did not understand lag or compression. Now I do and man am I thankful! Adam, your instruction and drills are a god send!! Highly recommend Adam's "Drop 5 Strokes" video as well.
Just got this video at 1 AM , trying to improve my chipping. Was at the driving range yesterday, fantastic ball striking by keeping my right elbow in through impact. Thanks Golf Academy 🇨🇦 👍
I'm a single digit handicap, and Lag Shot is hands down the best swing trainer I've ever used. I had been struggling with my game and fighting my swing a lot recently, bought the Lag Shot on a whim, and proceeded to go out and shoot 73 (from the blue tees). Ball-striking was on fire. This is the real deal...I can't recommend it enough.
I have not been a subscriber for long, and have never bought a training aid in my 25 years of playing. Currently playing off a handicap of 9, but timing has always been a huge struggle for me. About 15 years ago I shot a 2 under par round. Never done it since, and have never been able to replicate the feel of my swing on that day. My timing was perfect. I have just purchased this swing aid, and really look forward to receiving in down under, so I can take it to the range and work on my timing and tempo.
Hello Adam I just purchase the lag shot yesterday. I just watched the 3 videos that come with the purchase. I was searching the internet for more drill and found your endorsement on you tube. Is there any way I can watch the 10 videos from the lag shot training club? Thanks Matt
Yes. As it's legal for play you might have to count it as one of your clubs, or you can declare if 'not eligible for play' before you tee off Best, Adam
Hi, is the lag shot very different from the Orange Whip? And I have friends that live at the Vanderbilt club in Naples, when i get down there i will check out a lesson with you.
I purchased a lag shot last week through amazon. I fiddled with it a little on the range yesterday. It's going to take some work. Is there a way to access or purchase the videos you reference? I just bought it online and came to your video looking for some drills. I was once a 5 and after 2 decades of raising kids and not playing golf more than 3-4 times per year I'm not a 5 anymore.
Thanks. Just download the free Scratch Goof Academy app, LagShot training is on there (we’ve had some issues with the app just lately, if there is a problem, try again tomorrow) Best, Adam
Adam You mention rotating the club counterclockwise on the downswing to square the face. Does this translate to shots with regular club? If so, the only other teacher I’ve seen advocate this move is Mike Malaska.
I hit the 7 iron lag shot straight and high. When I shift to my regular 7 iron after hitting the lag shot, I tend to hit pull hooks. I think one of the problems is the difference in grip size.
That's a problem I had (and have when I warm up with the club) The fix may not be in the grip size. I slowed my swing and it allowed me to get through the ball with what I call "dead hands" (no rotation until the ball is well gone). Give it a shot and see if that helps.
The best thing about this training aid is not that it creates lag or tempo, it's that it forces you to swing to the target to properly hit the ball instead of swinging at the ball.
Hello Jim! Unfortunately the grips cannot be changed. However the grips do come a little oversized already. There is a 30 day money back guarantee so if you need to return it you can. Cheers!
It’s a really nice training club. If you get if make sure to watch the training video series I made for the LagShot. You can get it at the free Scratch Golf Academy app All the best, Adam
Training aids are like opinions. Everyone has one and most of them are nonsense. It took me quite a while to pull the trigger and buy the club. It also took a while for me to be able to hit it straight. But---once I learned how to do that, the magic started to happen. My shots have a much better feel and sound. The trajectory is much better, more in line with what trajectory should be with no "skying" of shots. Normally I fall into the marketing trap and buy swing aides and then return them. This one is not leaving my bag! I'm 76 and playing in the mid-80s.
About 35 years ago a friend of mine had a full set of clubs made with this shaft. I lot of guys tried to hit them but he was the only person that could. I don’t think I ever saw a guy enjoy playing as much as he did.

Hi Adam, I used my lagshot for the first time this morning. I am having difficulty with the "snapping a towel" analogy. I can snap a towel but do not see the analogy to swing a club.
James, With any club (including LagShot) we are trying to store energy (wrist hinge increase as lower body leads transition), then we ‘snap the towel’ near the ball. The body and arms of elite players decelerate coming into impact to allow energy to transfer out to the ball. Hope this helps. Best, Adam
Adam, thanks for the extra video on the club. Im a skilled golfer that shoots low to mid 80's but would you recommend this club for complete beginners? Im sure friends of mine would be curious about it.

@@Scratchgolfacademy then would they make a set that whippy of a shaft with a heavier head then? Just curious if you can hit balls with this can't they make a set that's legal to play with?
Bob, It’s a terrific aid, and with the 10 video instructional series from me that you get I think you’d have fun and make progress. The discount in the link below the video is very large, you’d feel better about it. All the best, Adam
You want a knock off lag shot (save some money) just swing a women’s club even seniors lol . I love swinging woman’s club the lag feels great .the ball will balloon but you already know why lol

Am I aloud to swing this before shots on course playing a round or tournament?
Thnx
Yes. As it's legal for play you might have to count it as one of your clubs, or you can declare if 'not eligible for play' before you tee off

Hello Adam, is it possible to get outside the US?
Love your content. Thanks for helping me improve over the years!
Yes! Please add the product to cart to see your shipping cost.
So if i hit my shots to the right with the lag shot what am i doing wrong? Thanks
I made a 10 video LagShot training course. It’s free at the Scratch Golf Academy app
I need oversize grips. Can you change the grip on this club?

Hello Jim! Unfortunately the grips cannot be changed. However the grips do come a little oversized already. There is a 30 day money back guarantee so if you need to return it you can. Cheers!
Will this help to improve a hook??

It’s not directly correlative to that, but likely would have peripheral benefit
Thanks, Adam
Can it help with early release problem?
Yes, you’ll enjoy more lag
@@Scratchgolfacademy thank You
Is there anyway to email u a video of a swing thats less than 10 seconds for u to quickly analyze??? If not, thanks.

Members at Scratch golf Academy.com have that option, I hope you’ll consider it.

I have this club and love it.
Glad you are loving it! Fun club to swing and learn with.

The same principles apply with a driver, plus there is a LagShot driver. You can see it at the website.

looks better than the momentus power hitter
Thanks Elliott, I agree
@@Scratchgolfacademy or the momentus swing trainer due to its heavy weight
I like the LagShot, you can hit balls with it
@@Scratchgolfacademy I used it yesterday on the range for the first time and I skulled and blocked a lot of shots
HEEELLPPP. Am I seeing an illusion? Is the correct take away the handle of the club outpacing the club head?
The flex of the LagShot accentuates that look. Most people snatch the clubhead away too much, so it’s a good image
Best, Adam
Maybe this is a dumb question...if this teaches you how to create lag why wouldn't you just get really whippy shafts in your clubs?
It’s much whippier than a flexible shaft. It also has a little more head weight than a normal club. Easier to feel the club.
All the best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy then would they make a set that whippy of a shaft with a heavier head then? Just curious if you can hit balls with this can't they make a set that's legal to play with?
It is legal to play with, but you’d never have the kind of control you’d have with a more standard shaft
Best, Adam
I had it, couldn't touch it, sent it back, now questioning my decision after being diagnosed as a lifelong "caster"🤔

What this club is actually supposed to accomplish is still really unclear
Promotes the feeling of lag
You want a knock off lag shot (save some money) just swing a women’s club even seniors lol . I love swinging woman’s club the lag feels great .the ball will balloon but you already know why lol
I can't hit a normal club correctly. No way I'm gonna hit a floppy one.
It might help you build a good feel Jimmy
