Very instructive frame 1:48 with the 6 iron and 8 iron
Thanks for watching the video.
All the best, Adam
I'll bet you're like a rockstar to all the old ladies in Florida.
Not sure about that Jeff, but thanks. Glad the video helped you a bit!
Best, Adam
You look alittle like an older version of Pierce Bronsan...you even have alittle bit of the same accent. Best golf videos on youtube. I will be checking out your website. Keep the great videos coming
Every time my iron striking gets off, I watch this video. It gets me back on track as it explains the basics of lag and solid contact very well. Thanks Adam. Good instruction never changes.
Thanks for the comment, and glad you have found the video helpful.
All the best, Adam
I am subscribing for sure, been trying to get my swings right
That’s gotta be the first time I’m had an advert for the same channel that I’m waiting to watch.
That is unusual!
All the best, Adam

Thanks Carlos! Best, Adam
Great explanation Adam, love your work. Rob.
I appreciate it Rob!
Thanks Adam, it all looks very easy, let's see if I can master it next time on the range.
Thanks Alistair. Best of luck, and do lots of small shots to get the feel
I've always hit the ball high. As I've gotten older problem is worse. I'm very wide in build and I learned yesterday that narrowing the triangle of my arms makes this drill easier and prevents the dreaded hook. It lowered my trajectory a bit and improved my divots. Going to try this again today and work on consistency. Love your no non-sense approach.
+david rose Thanks very much David, glad it's going better for you.
Best, Adam
Thank you for the drill. It sure has helped my game immensely! To describe how it changed, I was only able to achive 50-60 yards with a pitching wedge. I shoot about 110-120 yards as long as I have my lower body stable and not lift up causing skulled shots! As a hockey player taking up golf, it hasn't been an easy road for me with golf until I was able to put the slapshot and golf swing together. David Leadbetter, quite a gentleman in his teachings, as well. Thank you!
John,Glad you found it helpful! Hockey is a good background for golf as a rule. If it's of interest I will be offering in depth video courses on all aspects of the game at www.scratchgolfacademy.com sometime in the next few weeks. All the best, Adam
very informative video, keep them coming
Thanks, I appreciate it. If it's of interest I will be offering full video courses at www.scratchgolfacademy.com in about a month. Website is up now, but those courses will be available soon. Thanks again, and glad you are enjoying the videos. Best, Adam
Great tutorial, thanx for sharing it!
Thanks Panu, glad it was helpful.
Best, Adam
I’m coming back from heart surgery and I’ve decided to rebuild my swing as part of physical therapy - along with cardio of course.
Hitting my iron shots high and weak has always been the worst part of my game; my 5 iron shots fly on everyone else’s 8 iron trajectory. Your concepts resonate with me and I started using your method around the green and my chip shots got better immediately. I’ll try pitch shots later this afternoon.
Glad to hear it John!
All the best, Adam
Looking forward to trying this. The results highlighted in this video are key weaknesses in my game.. Lets see.
Bobby,I'd encourage you to start with small shots, It's hard to feel impact at high speed. Keep rehearsing the move and you'll get it.Best, Adam
amazing thanks!

Best teacher on youtube
Thanks very much Austin.
Best, Adam
going to go and try it out now
Vitalia,I hope you see some improvement. When altering your swing (especially impact) I'd encourage you to do lots of little shots to get the feel. Be patient with yourself, keep working on it, and keep going back to he little shots.Best, Adam
Great practice
Thanks Joseph
need to get my clubs fitted great tips
Farid,Glad you found the tips helpful. I trust there is a qualified club fitter in your area.Best, Adam
Honestly I've never heard anyone explain the club in front of you turn it down and hands forward. i might try this out because its a simple drill. good work!
Thanks Kyle, I hope you are able to make some progress. I'd suggest plenty of half shots to get the feel.
Best, Adam
Nice excercise!

Golf is an addiction in it's own right but your video are making it a double doze of it. If in next month I shall get my Golf Teacher Certificate, I shall remember you in my comments. As I always remember Gary McCord who exlpained and introduced Great Game of Golf to me. Thank You Sir.
Glad to hear you're making progress!
All the best, Adam
I love all your videos! you have helped me a great deal. My instructor calls this "covering the ball". Something i cant figure out. What specific anatomic part of right hand takes the hit and feels the impact. I was told once the bottom of index finger, but then someone told me the palm, or the bottom joint of index finger???? I would love to ask an expert this. I cant thank you enough for your videos!!!
Thanks. I'm afraid I can't be specific, and I don't recommend you try to find an answer that specific.Get the motion of the club going, then see how it feels TO YOU. That would be my recommendation. Hope this helps.
Best, Adam
Look at the club face 🙌🏻
Thanks for watching the video
Best, Adam
Its weird...I feel like I owe this guy money for all these awesome videos on CZcams.
Thanks Sam.
You are welcome to join at www.scratchgolfacademy.com if interested.
All the best, Adam
Great drill, however, I am finding I am not getting off my right side for efficient "follow through." Any tips? Really enjoy your program of instruction!
Vincent,
Thanks. Usually when people have a hard time getting off their right side it's because they accelerate arms and club too early in downswing. Leave the arms up in place for an instant as you start down, it gives you a chance to shift some weight.
Best, Adam
I am strungling with saving glove in practicing bowing the left wrist; problem is pressue b/w the fingers with the handle is not stable.. Any suggestions? Thnks a lot!
Hard to say without seeing you swing, but I'd check left hand grip. Make sure it's down in fingers enough, wrist relaxed, and heel pad of hand ON TOP of handle.
Hope this helps.
Best, Adam
aside the distance gained...the club just felt great in my hands...thank you
Glad to hear it Doug, and thanks for the comment.
All the best, Adam
All I can say is thank you.
You're welcome Maluk, thanks for watching the videos.
Best, Adam.
Do you want to do a little bit of this with woods also?
Yes Gary, but with slight set up adjustments there would be less downward hit with the wood.
Thanks, Adam
I have been hooking and slicing over the last few months , tried different CZcams vids no real success , until I lucky found your channel yesterday
Dimitur,Thanks, I'm very glad it's helping you! If it's of interest I will be offering in depth video courses on all aspects of the game at www.scratchgolfacademy.com sometime in the next few weeks.All the best, Adam
I’m trying to get back into golf after an 11 year hiatus. Doing well on the driver, still struggling with my irons.
Keep plugging Evan, hope you get there.
All the best, Adam
Love that nickel worn spot on that 8 iron .You a player but do you think slower swing speeds need less shaft lean ?😎
Thanks Paul.
I'm not an expert club fitter, but I'd say even slower speeds benefit from an appropriate amount of shaft lean at impact.
Best, Adam
I'm having a hard time understanding a little bit on this concept, because I've tried delofting the higher clubs and the ball does not get good height to land on the greens. If you're delofting the higher irons that much, won't it technically hit the ball with the same distance and height as the the lower irons that you don't deloft as much? How can i get a good height on my shots while delofting, and, therefore, hitting the ball farther? Thanks!
With decent speed a short iron (9 for example) may fly a little lower, but it will still apex reasonable high, and should have plenty of spin. Great players de-loft the long irons too (not quite as much as short irons), also the longer shaft and lighter swing weight help produce more speed.
Best, Adam
Adam, I love the idea. My concern is that most coaches insist on very "loose" wrist movement. I've followed Paul Watson a bit and his loose wrist style has helped me but I'm definitely losing distance. What's your take on the loose wrist theory?
Todd,
I think it's both. The wrists should be somewhat loose (or at least mobile) in the backswing and change of direction. You'll notice great players hinge the wrists freely going back, and that the wrist cock increases in the change of direction.
That said you'll also notice the club shaft pretty stable at impact. To do this at high speed requires some tension. Look at photos of great players at impact, it's clear they are not relaxed and loose all over their body.
Hope this helps.
Best, Adam
Thanks Adam. I fully understand. A few years back I swung much like your video but I think I started to exaggerate the swing and lost it. I think that's what happens so often to most golfers. We get a little bit so we want more. The more we want is when the swings heads south and we start all over again searching for a better swing. It's a vicious cycle haha!
Sounds like you are on the right track Todd!
Best, Adam
@@Scratchgolfacademy amazing reply
You're suggesting a stronger grip, closed face say etc.. but you've not mentioned something: wrists. My wrists are so loose that I'll always have my club head pass the hands out. I think you should address this aspect of how early release kills lag.. I know most golfers need to loose their wrists up, but I thought I'd mention. Cheers.
Thanks for the comment. See if this video helps czcams.com/video/SsXymFxdHqM/video.html
All the best, Adam
For some reason when I try these types of drills I start shanking the ball off the hozzel a lot. Any idea why or what I can do to prevent that from happening?
I'd guess that as you get your right wrist bent coming in to impact you push your hands too far away from your legs (body), causing a heel hit.
I'd take some practice swings where you set up to a ball (club behind ball, as though you intended to hit a shot), then as you swing intentionally miss the ball on the inside of the ball target line. It would be the opposite of the shank.
Hope this helps a bit.
All the best, Adam
Scratch Golf Academy This is very insightful, thanks for that info. I think you hit the nail on the head. Today as I was pitching in the back yard (focusing on bent right wrist) I noticed I have a tendency to push the path out to the right and never release my hands. I will give your drill a try.. makes complete sense. Also I seemed to make really good contact when I focused on clearing my left side through impact.. seems like it helped my hands start exiting left instead of continuing out right-wards. Thanks for the tip!
Glad it helped. Best, Adam
I actually tried this drill when I was on my last 5 balls using my 58*. My half swing improved from 50 to 130 yards and I was swinging easy. Hard to believe but it's true. I will try it on my other clubs. Btw, will this drill work on a driver as well?
Glad to hear it. Regards the driver, the straight line relationship between left arm/club at impact would be the same, but upper body would be more behind ball to give it a level hit.
Best, Adam
Did you just said you hit your 58 degree 130yards ? Not to mention half swing as well!!!! I can just get my 56degree to 120 yards out and my driver is averaging 290yards. 7iron 175 yards , that is bloody impressive mate!
How long do you hit your driver or 7 iron ?
I was down to my last 5 balls when I used my 58*. My carry was 100 yards but the roll was quite significant at 30 yards and that was just half swing with no real effort. I was expecting the ball to just go higher with at most 10 to 15 yards roll but it didn't. I just remember significantly delofting the club like it was just hovering above the mat for a long time with no flipping and I was hardly gripping the club. Tried it again the other day but I was not able to get the same yardage so I'm trying to figure what other factors might have contributed to it. Previous to this, I had a similar experience where I was hitting my 20* and 17* hybrid 240 and 250 yards respectively. Again, I'm not able to replicate it. I'm not a big hitter so this is a big surprise for me. I know it would sound like it is a ridiculous and an exaggerated claim for a lot of golfers. I just hope that with the help of the above drill plus figuring out the other factors that might have contributed to this that I will be able to become a consistent big hitter.
Almost a development of Hinge and hold
I suppose you could say that Roger. Hope it helps you with your game.
Best, Adam
I been doing this for years just incorrectly thanks
Hope this helps then
Scratch Golf Academy Just practiced and applied this with my new MP 25's and boy oh boy the sweet spot feels huge now! Thanks
I cant get this to work 😭😭
Sorry you are struggling. I'd recommend hitting lots of half shots, at pretty slow speed to ingrain the feel.
Best, Adam
Scratch Golf Academy ok will give it a go, thanks mate..
maybe I am not getting this. why deloft a 8 iron to hit a 6 iron? why not just hit the 6 iron?
Fair question, I hope I can help a bit. The shaft is designed to have forward lean (de-loft) at impact for 2 reasons. 1) the slight descending blow cased by shaft leaning forward allows player to strike ball before turf. If shaft had reached vertical (full loft) by impact it would brush/snag turf before ball quite often. 2) For maximum leverage (in this case applying pressure to ball with club) we need the shaft at least in line with the lead arm, left arm for me as a right hander. To test this try pushing against something solid (like base of a door frame) with a club, you'll see how much more pressure you can apply when hands are forward. The outcome is a de-lofted club at impact.
Please let me know if this helps. It's a key concept, and will really help your golf if you can master it. Best of luck!
Adam
Not a good video cause he doesn't tell you how to do it during the golf swing
Sorry you didn't like the video.
Best, Adam
Scratch Golf Academy: that's a PGA gimmick. Only giving half truth keeps em coming back. By product? Short results with no consistency
You're entitled to your opinion. Thankfully a lot of people don't agree with you. There is a lot of instruction out there, I encourage you to look around and find something that suits you better.
All the best, Adam
I would subscribe but I'd want less than 2 minutes of pointless talk in a 5 minute video.
Sorry the video wasn't helpful to you.
