This is great instruction that really worked for me. I’m 81 and the younger guys I play with (they’re in their 70s) are scratching their heads asking what I have been doing?

Hi from Korea! It still baffles me how this channel's subscription count is not in the millions. Easily the best golf tutorial channel on RU-vid! Love the succinct and simple explanations! I also admire Adam for taking the time out of what I presume to be his very busy schedule to reply to all comments! Absolute Legend! Just one quick question. I find that there is a delay in my shoulder rotation after my hip rotation during my downswing, which makes me push/slice the ball on impact. Is it a weak core or is there a way to fix this? Many thanks!

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

Aram, Thanks, and glad you like the channel. Regards your swing, there should be a momentary delay after the hips start forward and before the shoulders get going. My guess is you are nut decelerating both near impact, which would cause energy to transfer to the club, which would help club snap closed. Hope this helps. Best, Adam

Hi Adam! Great Instruction as always. I find that the setup of tilting the spine and the thought of hitting the ball high with an upward swing helps me shallow out the club.

@breeze787 4 года назад

Very good explanation about shallowing the club. I've been practicing shallowing for almost a year now and anytime anyone talks about it I want to know everyones take. All shallowing instructional videos have different way to demonstrate and explain how to get there. When I 1st started to shallow my club I thought it was such a complex swing. But I stuck with it and am slowly getting there quite positively. Thanks for putting this up.

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

Thanks for the comment. Best, Adam

@johnklein309 2 года назад

I changed my backswing via the bucket drill (don’t dump it over) drill from one of your other videos along with tipping my left hand thumb back at the top and that helped me shallow out a lot. Had to roll my left hand down on the follow through (hitting irons) to close the face but it created a ton of consistency for me.

Used to hear about the golf club being laid off and having to make compensations to get the club back on plain. When shallowing the club are we changing planes in transition?

@ydargybwen 4 года назад

Gonna try this drill soon. Will get back to you with results. Need a fix because my drive has totally escaped me lately. When I do hit one i think is gonna be good, the ball just drops out of the air like it hits an invisible net. And I'm swinging so hard it hurts my back, neck and shoulders.

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

Best of luck Grady. Sounds like you may have the wrong shaft or loft in the driver you are using. Best, Adam

@maxmoreno5891 4 года назад

Does this happen as a direct result of getting the right elbow down into your side as the downswing starts. I call it keeping the elbow connected. I love to come down for a lesson. Watched many golf videos. Enjoy your way of explaining things very much. All the best. Max

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

Thanks Max. To me the right elbow gets close as a result of the shallowing (and loading) of the club, not other way round. But that's just how it seems to me. All the best, Adam

@NM-oq4dn 3 года назад

Shallowing requires the ability do drop the club behind you under the plane from the top on the downswing. It requires flexibility and decent range of motion. Those who can’t shallow opt for a flatter takeaway and delivery.

@Scratchgolfacademy 3 года назад

Thanks for the comment Neil. All the best, Adam

@AGCampagna 4 года назад

@libsrcrazy9634 4 года назад

Appreciate the videos. My comment is when you did the adam Scott side by sides at the end. It does not look like he shallows it at all from the top. He comes straight down. Am I missing something?

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

Some players keep the clubshaft pretty flat all the way, so there is no apparent flattening, others (Nick Price for instance) have the shaft steeper in the backswing, then shallow it a lot. Hope this helps. All the best, Adam

@johnkoval1898 4 года назад

Hello Adam, When shallowing the club, is there any special care to be taken so to not spoil your swing plane?

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

John, Anything is certainly possible. As long as the shallowing is not too manipulated with the hands, but more of a reaction to good motion, you should be OK. Best, Adam

@RJMConsultingCDOs 4 года назад

Excellent drills and suggestions. However, there is one consequence of the "shallowing out" that I hope you might address... I've previously worked on both shallowing out my downswing and working to 'come from the inside' (without getting 'stuck'). And just as your driver example was "a little off the heel", I suddenly had a serious bout of the dreaded Sh*nks! (even with short irons!) It was completely unconscious and I had to seriously work on getting my weight back and a variety of helpful drills, but ultimately only 'cured' them (meaning I was again able to swing without fear of clanging the hosel) by 'reverticalizing' my swing. I WANT a shallower swing, but until I can get there without risking the "horrors", I'm hesitant. Do you have any helpful suggestions? [To further explain... in a vertical swing path, the extra momentum of a full swing carries my clubhead downward (bigger divot, ala Parnevik) but I can compensate by ensuring I'm "through the ball" at the bottom; with a flatter swing, that extra momentum carries my clubhead slightly horizontal (across the ball) bringing the hosel into the ball. It feels weird to address the ball at the 'toe'... so, suggestions are welcome!]

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

Hard to say without seeing you swing, but likely the club is getting stuck, causing hands to work away from you (towards ball) through contact. Not sure if this helps, but best of luck. Thanks, Adam

@mltdwg 4 года назад

I drive 50 yards more by doing this! but I have to do the practice swing to understand the full motion first, and releasing the club on the right spot .

@tonynorrish8911 4 года назад

pelvic tilt is part of good posture , thanks Adam, so is that initiated prior to the beginning of the back swing or just before impact?

Tony, If I'm understanding you correctly, yes, it's part of good posture. Preferable to bend from hips rather than mid-back. Best, Adam

Hi Adam, i m a golf beginner, and i feel confused with lagging and shadow the club in the downswing. Can u explain their differences and the purpose of their use? Thanks.

What about this approach? Thanks in advance!

@Scratchgolfacademy 3 года назад

Andreas, Not sure if we can do a search at the channel, but content (and there is a lot of it) at www.scratchgolfacademy.com is well organized. Regards shallowing the club, it's OK to feel it in the hands/wrists, but if it's not tied in to the flow and body motion I don't think it will repeat well. Best, Adam

@olafheinzel1652 4 года назад

I have a question about why the golfer cannot simply use a shallower backswing in the first place, rather then shallowing the club at the beginning of the downswing as you have demonstrated. (I am still a novice golfer, so I hope you don't mind if I ask a question that may be more obvious to experienced players.)

@Scratchgolfacademy 4 года назад

Olaf, As Rory showed in the video, staying basically on one plane can be done. That said, most gofers go too flat early in the backswing, almost always influencing club to steepen coming down. Shallowing the club is pretty natural when the motion is athletic, baseball would be a good example. Hope this helps. Best, Adam
