This guy is a great teacher. Easy to listen to, to the point, easy to understand.
Thanks very much Mark.
All the best, Adam
I found a sure fire way to shave 8 strokes off my game. Works every time. I skip one of the par 3s.
That's a novel approach Steve!
Best, Adam
Hey love your videos and i have a question i broke my shoulder a few years ago and the bone overlapped when it healed but never got fixed i always slice and i know i have to try to get comfy when hitting and do a nice easy swing but any ways to help me? i do have a 85% back swing as opposed to a full swing so any suggestions i could try or tips i would really appreciate it. thanks an have a blessed day.
Possibly the best and most honest and most practical golf advice I have ever seen Steve!
Dude this guy is the man.....hes no BS old schools
Steve JC ahhahahahahahhahahaha
This truly is a massive amount of coaching crunched into a small video. The content of the coaching is gold. You will find that this total lesson is worth revisiting many times. Each point Adam makes has been drilled into me by many teaching pros. This man is concise, easy to follow and genuine with the sharing. Keep the videos coming. I'm so happy to view them. Andy
Thanks very much Andy, I appreciate the comment.
Best, Adam
These are real golf lessons that are universal to everybody. He isn't being technical he's just giving your very beautiful and smart advice. Thank you
Thanks very much for the comment Andrew.
All the best, Adam
I really like your videos because they are no-nonsense. You actually look at all of it logically. Many teachers leave you wondering: what did he just say and what did he mean. You take the broad picture of golf and zoom in on what you are teaching so it is very easy to understand. Thanks for all of your effort as it is truly appreciated!
Thanks very much for the comment Bobby.
Best, Adam
Your videos are among the best on the web. I look forward to each new one you do. Great job!
Thanks very much Val!

Hi Adam, I certainly enjoy all your videos - good points for home use and to take to the range
Straight off the bat, at least you have the time to answer comments .Thanks Adam.
Will master this driver and another driver I carry soon, I am filled with more confidence now .
Thanks again Adam.
Thanks for the comment Lucy, and glad you're seeing improvement.
All the best, Adam
I'm a long haul truck driver, I drive team with my wife for 14 years now...I have the old speed stick, a old 3 iron, and 56 wedge, I use just to keep my mind fresh on what I learned.....Your tips on bring the club back to square, closed, open, I will be practicing on the road.....I love just going to the range, with a purpose, and practicing.....Thanks for your expertise......Leland
Thanks Leleand
Adam, this clip is gold. You just described my poor practice regime when at the drive range. I kinda know what to do after watching multiple youtube videos, however, you've just made me realise I just keep whacking away, hoping the thoughts in my head will transfer to my hits/drives without building up slowly and thinking about what I'm doing. Thanks, The Bucket Drainer.
Alex,
Glad to hear you found the video helpful. I hope you see progress in your game.
All the best, Adam
Adam, this is the first video of yours I've watched. It's also the first video that actually makes sense! I've gotta work a bit on my club path, but I feel like I can actually control the face of the club now. Thank you! This definitely won't be the last video of yours I watch!
Thanks, and glad you found the video helpful.
All the best, Adam
Yes, by all means These videos are a great help I am taking these to golf course and using them to help me with a metal image at putting and driving, the foot power spray was so clever. I like what you are doing thank you.
Thanks Pastor Ray!
Thank you Adam.
You are the Herbert Von Karajan of golf.
The real thing. Thanks!
You’re very kind!
Best, Adam
Adam this is really good. I love the way you encourage people to play around with different feels, I think this is really missing from other instruction.
Thanks very much Rudiger
Best, Adam
Adam great teaching pro certainly has helped my game, thanks Adam keep the tips coming
Thanks Val. I just started golfing and your videos have help me a lot.
Hans,
Thanks, I'm glad you are finding it helpful!
Best, Adam
What he said about using less power and feeling it and using your mind is right on. That's the second time I've heard a really good coach say this. I've been doing a lot of practicing at the local football oval which restricts my urge to just whack the ball as far and hard as I can. Guess what? I can actually feel where I'm going wrong now and am hitting the ball with much more control than many sessions at the driving range with buckets of balls. No wonder he won PGA Teacher of the Year twice. Best part is he doesn't charge $165 an hour! Thank you.
Thanks for the comment.
All the best, Adam
I've watched a lot of instructional golf videos over the years and I'm surprised I only came across your videos today. They are by far the best I've seen. You break things down into basic elements. Thank you!
Thanks very much Jerry!
Best, Adam
Started golf late, but your videos make great easy to understand sense.
Thanks Tony, I'm glad they've been helpful to you.

Recently got into golf this year, and your examples of types of mentalities to go into the course with are nothing short of awesome and great.
Thanks very much VJ, glad you find the videos helpful.
Best, Adam
Scratch Golf Academy A good day to you Sir!
Your lessons have really helped me to improve my game. I'm still very much a beginner, playing less than a year, but the improvement in just a short time from watching your videos on simple mechanics have brought me to bogey golf on 9 hole courses. I still need more time on the larger courses but I'm very happy with the progress that I'm making and I have you to thank for a good portion of that progress. Thank you.
Thanks for the note, and glad you’ve made good progress.
Best, Adam
these videos are great and thanks keep them coming , I have changed my driver from an R7 to R15 and for some reason I am now slicing big style but straight with R7 an ideas🇬🇧
Glyn,
Thanks very much. Regards the change in drivers, there is clearly something less suited to you with the R-15. There are a number of possibilities, but likely the shaft is not a good fir for you. I'm not a real expert in club fitting, but find someone good, who uses a launch monitor and I'm sure they can help. Sorry I can't be more definitive. Best, Adam
I am new to golf and I’ve had some lessons but these videos have been so helpful in simplifying positions for me. Thank you so much!
Thanks Sally.
Glad you have taken up the game, and that the videos are helpful to you.
All the best, Adam
Great instruction, can't wait to apply it. Love the spray bit, makes complete sense, thanks.
Thanks, glad you liked the video.
Best, Adam
Foot spray contact mapping for the win!!! Picking up a can on the way to the range today!! Cheers!
Very informative and have learned a lot. Look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thanks, glad it was helpful for you.
Best, Adam
Thanks for the reply and you've confirmed what I thought , all the best
Glyn can you send me your contact info via private message I have something for you.
Another great video with useful advice. Thanks Adam for all the hard work that you put into these.
Thanks Jay!
Thank you so much on your amazing videos. I find the mix of explanation and demo to be great. I really enjoy the practice/drills tips to improve. A minority of people are unable to appreciate anything in life. For me your videos are the best hands down
+Toan Vo
Thanks very much!
All the best, Adam
This is Gold, Im going to the range later. Thanks Im hitting them pretty good now
Glad to hear it Pat
This is excellent information, especially the last part about returning to the small moves and building from there. I've been having that exact experience where it's difficult to tone it down and I want to kill every ball in the bucket.
It's hard to resist doing that! Thanks for your interest in the videos, I hope they are helpful to you.
Best, Adam
Thank you for your valuable videos, helped my game improved dramatically in the last month alone.
+madcowAU
Glad to hear it!
All the best, Adam
Thank you! It is very helpful
Glad you liked the video!
Best, Adam
Very helpful. Best video I've seen on this subject.
Thanks very much.
Best, Adam
yet another fantastic video, i'm relatively new to the game, and since subscribing to your video's i am now hitting more straight and with more distance, thank you again
Glad to hear it John!
Best, Adam
Great video Adam. Had great results at the range and on my next round using your tip for the right foot placement! Thank you. Great channel.
Thanks Scott, glad you made some improvement.
Best, Adam
I'll give your drill a try! Thanks for your tips.
Best of luck Rick.
Thanks, Adam
This video is absolute GOLD! Watched it and went on to play my best 18 out of the tee box. Highly recommend to others
Thanks very much Mike. I'm glad you had success!
All the best, Adam
Very well put together. I'm a 4 handicap golfer and still find these videos very helpful. Lots of knowledge and teaching in a small video. Well done Sir. I have everyone I golf with subscribing to these videos.
+Devin Harsch Thanks very much Devin. Glad the videos have been helpful, and I appreciate the support.
Best, Adam
Every video you made is very good and it has improved my game a lot. Thanks Adam. You’re the best of all time.
Thanks very much for the comment. I’m glad to hear you are making good progress.
All the best, Adam
Thank you very much Adam. This is really helpful.
Thanks for the comment.
Best, Adam
Great video. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment.
All the best, Adam
This is great advice. I like the way it emphasizes relying on your natural intuition and setting the stage for it. All good shot makers realize this.
Thanks Austin, glad you found the video helpful.
Best, Adam
Dear Adam, I want to compliment you on your teaching. For example, often in videos terms are used without definition. That's confusing for a beginner, but from you I understand "release" and "lag" relative to wrists ("Stop Hitting Behind the Ball"). Also, you haven't taken things for granted such as clarifying the different stances needed for an iron vs. a wood relative to sweet spot and club face angle. Your demonstration of how you'll shoot the wood down the fairway versus hitting the ground with your iron, if you let go of them, was very instructive. I thank you for your carefully considered lessons. You are helping me to be a better golfer.
Thanks for the comment, and glad you are seeing progress.
Best, Adam
Very helpful advice, can't wait to get out to the range and put it to use!
Thanks, hope you make some progress.
Best, Adam
Great and insightful videos mate, keep up the good work.
thanks very much Peter
Best, Adam
Absolutely love the way you go about explaining swing thoughts. I've played so long and tried so many "tips" that my game has totally regressed. Coming back to the basics and not over analyzing it might be the way to go. #reset
Thanks Bryan, glad you are finding the videos helpful.
Best, Adam
I was working on this today and had great results. I used the ropes on the driving range that are nailed into the ground showing you where to practice. I kept setting up to the rope like it was a ball and practiced squaring the face to the rope. Just like you did with the stick. It really helped me map out impact. I did this the rest of my practice time, square up to the rope then hit a ball. I was hitting it so straight and pure. It really is that simple.
Glad you made progress Scott, keep doing the drill periodically.
Best, Adam
The spray thing is genius. Thanks!
Glad it helped you Vladimir.
Best, Adam
Great Information Mr. B.... I have enjoyed your tips tremendously. As a previous college golfer at a high level, without too much formal instruction, it is great to get these simple tips as close reminders and bringing me back to basics and feeling I once had to hit solid shots. I will be looking into your online courses soon, as I now have a young daughter that is enjoying golf - but dad doesn't quite have the instruction background to help make it simple for her to understand. This is perfect. Thank You!
Jamon,
Thanks very much, I'm glad the videos have been helpful to you. Hope your daughter enjoys the game.
Best, Adam
Wow, this is wisdom right here. Thank you.
Thanks, hope it helps you.
Best, Adam
excellent!
Thanks, glad you liked the video!
Best, Adam
I really like the beautiful course you shoot at. You are a smart, effective teacher and great communicator. Pretty much jargon free. I value your instruction. Thank you!
Thanks very much Mark. The course is Mediterra, in Naples Florida.
All the best, Adam
Well done and straight forward. My drives tend to go hard left, so I'm still working on it. Keep up the good work!
+David Sheats Thanks David, hope you see improvement with your driver.
Best, Adam
Cheers!
Thanks, great content and I really liked the foot spray hack! I’m going to us that one right now.
Thanks John, hope you make good progress
All the best, Adam
Hey Adam great video. I'm very new to the game of golf. I watched a number of different web golf coaches, and without doubt they are very good at what they do, but they didn't reach me. To me it felt like watching a maths class and it goes straight over my head. You on the other hand seem to be all about FEELING the golf, having fun, making mistakes, exploring. Turning the whole process of learning into an enjoyable one.
Thanks very much David, glad the videos are helpful to you.
Best, Adam
100% trying these tips... love the foot spray feedback
Thanks Mark, hope it helps you make progress.
Best, Adam
Love the instructions, basic and straight to the point..thanks

"Your subconscious might, over time, create some skill IN SPITE OF YOURSELF" lol
Comical, but tru.
Thank very much, Adam
Very helpful and very good commentary that is easy to understand. One of the best I have seen
Thanks very much Wayne.

good ideas to try ....thanks very much
+Lance B.
Lance,
Thanks, hope you make some good progress.
Best, Adam
have randomly bumped into your video and exactly what I needed. no hadcap yet just a beginner but good lessons. chege in Tanzania
Thanks Jhon, glad you're taking up the game.
Best, Adam
Like your style, subscribed. Just picked up golf and I can see how easy it is to be overloaded with advice, I agree it's all about learning to feel the club and getting feedback. Your advice on scaling up the swing is spot on too , I do this on the range all the time, while everyone around me is only on full power
Thanks very much Keith.
All the best, Adam
excellent advice, thanks Adam!
Thanks Joshua.
Best, Adam
I love the foot powder idea! Going to try it on my next trip to the driving range.
It's great feedback, hope it helps you Ben.
Best, Adam
Very good advice easy to understand thank you
Thanks for the comment Mark.
All the best, Adam
I really do enjoy your videos!
Thanks very much Curtis.
All the best, Adam
Love your thoughts on developing a feel for the golf swing (as opposed to over-thinking) and honing that it as the preeminent mental process when in play.
I've found my play is at its best when I let "feel" or instinct take the reins.
Thanks Cr, glad you are making progress.
Best, Adam
Very helpful indeed.
Thanks Nick!
Best, Adam
Outstanding video, just subscribed, great drill.....
Thanks very much Kevin.
Best, Adam
Absolutely the best instructional video I've ever watched and believe me I've seen my share . Watched the "Hitting behind the Ball " video as well and was equally impressed . I'm going to subscribe . The piece about getting out of your head and understanding its a "stick and ball" game based in most part on feel really makes sense to me.
Thanks very much John. Glad you found the videos helpful.
All the best, Adam
Great video. As much as I like the game of golf and always wanted to become better, I always felt like the golf community was a bunch of snobs who never wanted to help people learn and get better unless they were making a buck of course. Your videos are really great and you describe things perfectly. I feel like I instantly know what you mean about the feel for the game and letting things flow naturally. Thanks for sharing these videos and keep up the great work.
Thanks very much, glad the videos are helpful to you.
All the best, Adam
Great video! He broke it down perfectly
Thanks Jonathan, glad you liked the video.

That sure helps
Thank you

Another great video. Adam is the man.
Thanks very much!
Best, Adam
Great video many thanks
Glad you liked it Dave.
Best, Adam
Stop thinking so much is the best advice you gave me. I appreciate your care and thoughtfulness. Make me feel better about my game. Great video, thanks for your help 😉 keep up the good work
Thanks very much Curtis.
Best, Adam
Curtis Perdue, you are spot on. Adams advice about not overthinking it helped me. I found I was trying to think in the middle of my swing and overloading my thought process. I am now working on developing muscle memory by doing the training with short swings and letting muscle memory do the rest when I swing full. I'm sorry if I did not explain that well. Suffice to say, thanks Adam; I appreciate your videos.
thanks for the great video and information. I'm looking forward to trying this. hoping to eliminate my at times severe slice 😭
Best of luck!
Thanks, Adam
Great communication in this lesson. Really got through the old sawdust upstairs.
Glad it was helpful for you Thomas!
Best, Adam
Excellent and concise....well described.
Thanks very much. Best, Adam
Very good
I love that you talk about the sub-conscience and it’s role in golf!
Thanks Joey, glad you found the video helpful.

Great video; nice work
Thanks for the comment.
All the best, Adam
This is really help for me and I just start
Glad you found the video helpful.
All the best, Adam
I get judged a lot at my local courses simply because of my appearance. I have long hair right now and some of my tattoos are visible; however, because of your videos, I shoot better than half the people out on the course with me at any given time (at half their age to boot)..shuts them up really quick. Thank you sir!
Thanks, and glad I could be of some help to you.
All the best, Adam.
Great drill. Loved the part about having the hands ready...
Thanks very much, glad it was helpful to you.
Best, Adam
Last night, 9 holes - "a stick and a ball, solid contact." My new mantra. I hit 7 of 9 fairways including the par 3: dropped it on the green. Far and away my best performance. I used your alignment drill and kept the poise to do it repeatedly. I included the notion of intentionally bringing the face closed and open to see how it feels. In fact, one of my failed shots sliced and I could feel that it was due to bringing the club from outside to in. Sure, that went in the trees on this hole, but it will be a brilliant shot on some doglegs I play. I also had to wait for some slow play and I wonder if other players thought I had lost my senses when they saw me throwing my five wood down the fairway. I could have told them that hitting your woods is like skipping a stone, and I was practicing. Thanks again. I am enjoying the game more and more.
Thanks for the comment. Very glad to hear you are making such progress, and enjoying it!
Best, Adam
hi adam, I have just come across your web site -you explain in away things in way that is easy to understand and I thank you for that as a new comer to the game it is sometime hard to pick things up. thanks jim. kenny.
Thanks Jim, I'm glad the videos are helpful to you.Best, Adam
Wow , Glad I found your web site great teaching . If I come down for vacation any way I could get a lesson ? not that far a way in Alabama. Ken
Thanks Ken. Would love to get together, www.adambgolf.com has more details.
Best, Adam
Hya Adam love ur stuff.
Thanks very much Gordon.
All the best, Adam
Awesome content and strategy as usual. So many people who can"do", can't teach. In each video, you develop a strategy to get your points across in a clear simple concise manner. That is something of an "art". Well done . . . thanks !!!
Thanks very much Danny.All the best, Adam
Danny would you mind sending me a private message I have something to ask you? Go to the about page for my channel and click on "message". See this screenshot: screencast.com/t/GZ4mxmINyggr Thanks!
Excellent instruction and advice, just practice what Adam teaches and the feel will come and you will see the difference.
+onedwinone
Thanks very much!
All the best, Adam
Your so right about the mind dealing with the strike I don't think anybody thinks about striking a moving ball its just to quick, good tip thanks
Glad it was helpful to you.
Thanks, Adam
Moving ball... boy I have enough trouble hitting the ball when it's just sitting there.
Verrrrrrrrrrrry good tip sir
Thanks, glad you found it helpful.
All the best, Adam
I appreciate this content. Although I am only 5 feet 7 inches I am finding I like the full length driver better. I tried a 44 inch shaft that was quite light and just really couldn't get the feel for it. Did not like it. Seems the Ping G 410 S.F.T. driver with the soft regular shaft at 45 3/4 inches works pretty well for me. I am a senior and I believe my swing speed tops out at probably 80 to 85 mph. I usually hit in the range of probably 185 to 210 yards but I really got into one last weekend that traveled about 230 plus yards. I like the potential of being able to hit it quite long but realize control is a big factor along with good dispersion. You encouraged me not to shorten the shaft and you are right on that. Its starting to all come together. More important to work on technique and controlling that club. Thank you Adam.
Thanks for the comment Joseph. Glad you are making progress.
All the best, Adam
Thanks. Great video. It really helped me with the driver. Does this method apply to irons ( controlling using the hand method)?
Thanks Taoheed. Yes, I'd apply the same feeling.
Best, Adam
