    It was a pleasure meeting you at the PGA Superstore the other day Adam. Can't wait for the fan interaction day coming up. Cheers!

      You too, man! Here's the question, did you truly recognize *me* in that hitting bay, or just that super flat swing, lol! Hope all is well down there. I'm back in Canada now.

    You mentioned on your live chat that when Golf Sidekick posted/shared one of your videos, it really helped grow your channel, which was relatively new at the time. However, I may be the only one that found your channel first, which led me to Golf Sidekick's channel. But either way, I enjoy both of your channels immensely.

    Hi Adam! I first watched your channel in early 2021, when you uploaded "Playing 18 in the mountains". Since then, I have been a huge fan of your game and your attitude around the course. Your putting tips and golf advice have helped me to start breaking 90. Each and every video of yours makes my day. When I started watching golf channels, I started with only yours and Golf Sidekick's. I was truly overjoyed when you two met at Arizona and played together. Your game has become even better ever since you moved from Canada, and your golf content is great! Keep playing and posting new videos for us to enjoy!

    • @NotAScratchGolfer
      @NotAScratchGolfer  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Nice round :), love watching your videos as you focus on course management and how to bounce back after having 3 or 4 'bad' holes and don't get into any of the technical stuff with the swing. The 15th hole par 3 looks awesome

    • @NotAScratchGolfer
      @NotAScratchGolfer  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    When I hear someone gripe about their swing or someone else’s swing. I’ll recommend they watch the Senior/champions tour. You will see some of the most homemade swings in golf. Especially the old guys. Chi chi Rodriguez, Lee Trevino, Mo Norman. Not the prettiest swings but some of the best ball strikers ever. Consistency and ball striking.

    • @NotAScratchGolfer
      @NotAScratchGolfer  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      True! Although I admit, I still am mesmerized by Couples' swing. It's the only "textbook" golf swing I wish I could snap my fingers and emulate.

  • @Dan_BCtoAZ
    @Dan_BCtoAZ 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Boy….I don’t play much golf annually but my game is so much like yours, I’m not a pretty swinger of the clubs, but like you, I’m good at thinking my way around the course. I’m not any more talented than the buddies I play with but they chase poor shots with even poorer decisions. Which is why I’m an 8 and they’re around 12-15. Good round Adam!!

    • @NotAScratchGolfer
      @NotAScratchGolfer  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Enjoy! I haven't done enough surveying to determine which course is the more popular one. I think some of the finishing holes on the North tip the scales for me slightly towards that course, but the South is a good track, too.

  • @JohnDoe-rk1ck
    @JohnDoe-rk1ck 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    95% of golfers are plagued by chunking the ball. Everything we do is a compensation to not chunk it on the course. We cant even chip without chunking.
    We dont know how to use the tool.
    We can all learn in 1 day to hit a nail on the head with a hammer and by the end of the day we can naturally add tremendous power.
    “Straight jacket golf” instructors twist us up like a pretzel and think we’ll be able to swing freely and powerfully.
    How do we use the tool and how do we get the club sweeping at the correct height at impact?
    Teach us that and we can take care of the rest.
    Do you have any videos you can point me to that will help with this plague

      I typically tee it up from whatever box's rating looks best to me (typically a rating within 1 stroke of par in either direction and a slope of no more than the high-130s). In this round, we teed it up second from the back box at 6,500 yards with a 71.5 rating and 131 slope.

    Adam,
    We all love the self deprecation, but I really think you can put the “my swing is ugly” narrative to rest. Your swing honestly does not look that bad lol. Do you look like Fred Couples? No, but there’s a lot to like about your swing. You’re breaking 80 on a regular basis… I the peanut gallery should be emulating your swing, not the other way around. 👍

    • @NotAScratchGolfer
      @NotAScratchGolfer  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      haha appreciate the kind words. I guess I still get *so* much swing hate that I continue to lean into this angle. So I'm almost heading off the comments by addressing it upfront. Indeed, even I get a little tired of giving the disclaimer that "mY sWiNg Is UgLy"
