    Hi Adam, how much from the inside? 15 degrees? 30 degrees? I've heard that we need to swing more from the inside with the driver than with other clubs. Would you agree? Really enjoy your videos! Thanks in advance.

    • @Scratchgolfacademy
      @Scratchgolfacademy  3 года назад

      Bill,
      Thanks. Regards the driver, at impact you’d like the swing path to be on target, or a couple of degrees in to our. Half way down, though, the club would be well from the inside
      All the best, Adam

    [memo] Hitting from the inside, 이것이 snap 동작처럼 가속하며 에너지전달 효율을 높인다는 사실을 잊지말자.
    상체를 총동원해서 팔과 어깨로 던지고 찌르듯이 스윙하는 사람들이 많은데... 이런 동작은 오히려 에너지를 dissipate 하며, 클럽이 가파르게 내려오도록 한다는 사실을 알자. 막대기로 스냅을 넣어 whip 하거나, 오른손을 내려서 볼을 던질 때처럼 inside로부터 던질 때에 볼에 더 많은 speed를 전달할 수 있다. 사람들이 클럽을 turn 함으로써 open 된 클럽페이스를 닫기위해서 전력을 다하는데.. 클럽페이스를 close 하기 위해 그렇게 많은 힘은 필요치 않다. 작은 스윙으로도 스냅을 가하여 속도를 높힐 수 있다. The Inside로부터 스윙하는 것에 대해 큰 신뢰를 가져볼 것.
    드라이버를 상향으로 (upward hit) 쳐야만 거리를 더 낼 수 있고, 하향으로 치면 거리손실이 생긴다.
    (무릎을 꿇고 하는 스윙 연습을 해보면) 상향으로 스윙해야 하는 원리를 알게 될 것이다. 이것이 드라이버를 잘 칠 수 있는 방법임.

    Hi Adam thank you, can you offer some help, I'm an 8 handicap and I am struggling with my driver, I tend to muscle the swing instead of swinging the driver and releasing the club. As a result, when I muscle it which is often, I snap hook it! I hate it. Can you offer any drills or swing thoughts to get me to swing the driver and not muscle it?? Thank you in advance. BTW I don't seem to have that issue with my iron game.

    Does choking down on the driver help control the swing plane until you find the correct plane? Seems like the longer the club the more off plane My swing is.

    • @Scratchgolfacademy
      @Scratchgolfacademy  3 года назад

      Dee,
      Choking down may help with control overall, but not sure it will help the plane much.

    I love you videos. My problem is that I have a weak grip because I literally cannot hit the ball with a stronger grip. I go low and dead left which would suggest that I go over the top. So my question is how should you square the club face with a pronounced weak grip and still come from the inside? Ty Adam.

    • @Scratchgolfacademy
      @Scratchgolfacademy  4 года назад

      Thanks Ty.
      You’d have to bow, or de-loft, the back of the left hand through impact, like Hogan or Johnny Miller.

    @richardbuchignani5196 4 года назад +2

    Adam, you are a great teacher and all your instructions are spot on, but why do you recommend twisting the driver shaft closed at impact?

    • @Scratchgolfacademy
      @Scratchgolfacademy  4 года назад +1

      Thanks Richard.
      Most golfers (not all) habitually leave the face open with a through impact with a driver. These golfers have to work on squaring the face with the forearms and hands, rather than the more typical flailing through with the shoulders & swinging left.
      Like anything, it's possible to do too much of it, so ultimately you are looking for neutral (fairly straight shot).

    Adam, I am the guy in our group that hits the ball the furthest but consistent direction is lacking. I have noticed two things...1) my major miss is a HUGE hook. 2) The hook is created from two things. a) a quick transition at the top which brings the club from over the top, and b) a flip of the wrists prior to impact. Do you have a drill to get rid of the "flip"? I don't mind pulling a few left, but to flip-hook it on top of that is KILLING me! Thanks, and always love the videos.

    • @Scratchgolfacademy

    l have watched this video a couple of times. I believe you combine two distinct actions that others have stated but always as separate items that have to work together and possibly worth of a separate video. What i am referring to is the right hand unloading (ie rock skipping) at the same time left hand rotating. I don't want to think about it as that is not I am having an issue with but have had the issue before where one hand overpowering the other causes issues.

    Skip the rock on the pond....my PGA pro in a lesson told me to feel that motion with my right arm in the downswing, nothing else. It does help to warm up on the range first....hard to trust this cold on the first tee. But once you get in the groove you will be surprised how effortless it feels, and the distance gain.

  • @RiseUp1000
    @RiseUp1000 4 года назад +3

    I liked it. Good information for the higher handicap golfer who struggles with a too steep downswing. However, coming from the inside and consistently trying to square the clubface with the hands seems problematic, particularly for golfers with higher swing speeds. Nothing destroys rounds more than that duck hook drive. It’s why Hogan worked so hard to rid himself of that action.

    • @Scratchgolfacademy
      @Scratchgolfacademy  4 года назад +1

      Thanks. We all have to square the face in order to hit a good shot. Typically (but not always) this means more snapping it closed for everyday players, and preventing it from closing for elite players.

That pull-hook is my signature shot because I struggle mightily to hit inside-out and up with my driver. I can't wait to get out to the range and "whip that thing".

      @chestermicek 4 года назад +1

      At the top of your back-swing, do two things before you start your body rotation: 1) bump your hips toward your target, and 2) rotate & drop your power triangle into the slot. You're bumping your hips so that you get your weight on your target side foot. With #2, you're rotating your arms, forearms, and hands so that your right elbow points down and your right palm points up. From there, you drop the whole Ben Hogan Triangle about a foot, and then, move your right elbow into (towards) your liver. Your goal is to get the butt end of the club (the handle) so that it points at the target when your left hand is opposite your right thigh. You do that & you won't go outside in any more.

  • @jpbernie72
    @jpbernie72 3 года назад +2

    I’ve heard of closing the club face as “downtime“. Meaning, prior to impact you start rolling your wrist/forearms (like you said you can see the knuckles) so that your watch faces the ground as he follow through. Hence the term “downtime.“

    There’s 2 types of golf pros teaching on RUclips. The first kind talk about many small details and different topics, very technical, a lot of small instructions. Very hard to connect all the instructions, you find yourself always correcting small mistakes separately, but never “getting it”. The 2nd type, people who have already “digested” all that complexity to offer fewer & easy to understand instructions that bring better golf to whoever want to listen. These are the only good ones to me now, and Mr. Bazalgette is one of the best, maybe the best.

    I'm 63 and can swing my driver around 97 so I am competitively long for my age but play mostly with guys 20-30 years younger than me and many of them played college golf so they hit it like 60 yards past me. The last couple of years I had started doing exactly what Adam talks about - try to hit at the ball with my right side which has been disastrous - both last year and then recently this year my swing has fallen apart and my hdcap has gone from like 3.9 to 6.5. The sidearm motion or the skipping a rock analogy is great. One thing it forces me to do is keep my right leg out of my swing. When I get the over the top disaster move going, if you can visualize this, on my downswing, my right leg literally goes about 6 inches perpendicular to the target line.
    Go outside and take a ball and try to throw it sidearm across your body while jutting your right knee 90 degrees from the target. You absolutely cannot do it. This is what happens with my swing when I get off. I get to where I can't hit a driver 200 yards and all my irons become these horrible weak cuts or terrible fat pulls. That sidearm skipping motion forces my lower body to get in the right position. I have practicing this move religiously and thank God I am, after two weeks of horrendous golf, finally starting to come back around. If I don't work on this all the time, I just can't hit it decently anymore. In my case I have to almost take my lower body completely out of the shot, or when I hit it good that's the sensation. Thanks Adam for another great video.

      Anthony Lennen: From 3.9 to 6.5. Those numbers tell me you play very regularly, you are naturally physically able and flexible and have a great golfing mind. Just be thankful that you’ve got tot that level of excellence and near professionalism.
      I could blather... but suffice to say even a lesson with a Ryder Cup player! Gave me hope for about a week then it faded. Believe me, you are doing well. Keep it up!

    Question: why not close the face of the driver at say 10degs. at address, then come from inside to out?
    I find that snapping the wrist a fraction before striking the ball for an 18 handicapper inconsistant.

    • @Scratchgolfacademy
      @Scratchgolfacademy  4 года назад

      Fair question. There are several issues, but the biggest one is speed. The snap of the wrists around impact (both unhinging and closing the face) produces a lot of speed.

    A really solid video, Working on this, and applying to the course has me hitting it as far as when I was 25 years ago. At 77, I'm playing down to a 9.5 and hitting fairways long and greens in reg is key.

    So clearly put. I've only recently started watching Adam's videos, but the drills he suggests all seem to be about proprioceptive feedback, so getting the feel and replicating that. So much better than other online coaching.

    Old fart here. A number of years ago, I got greedy and completely abandoned my baby draw to learn to a baby fade. The goal was to have BOTH. I spent years trying to learn the fade - fully dedicated to it. The result: I completely lost my draw; I could never implement any degree of power/length into my "fade". Just recently gone back to Adam's lessons tips. Already hitting it straighter (with occasional draw) and with considerable more length and power. Battling a pull on occasion; BUT IT BEATS A WEAK PUSH.
    Just the hand and knuckle placements was a huge kick-start! Many thanks, Adam.

      Ultimately we want to hit the back of the ball (coming from the inside), but if you're coming over the top it might help.

    Great visual descriptions with skipping rocks and the inside whip needed. I've been seeing some arising outside in swings with driver thus resulting in some side spin, slicing and lose of distance.
    I'll be remembering skipping rocks as my last swing thought before back swing with driver. As usual excellent content, breaking it down in layman's terms.
