Adam, you are a great teacher. The concepts are kept simple and athletic rather than so many who deal with all this science and still shots. Those positions are simply a result of an athletic swing. Too often I think we spend entirely too much time trying to duplicate some of those images rather than allowing the club to flow freely, using momentum of the club head at impact. What isn't taught as often is "impact". Starting at where we want to be at impact, then working backwards to me is paramount. All your information coincides with other excellent teachers such as Mike Malaska. Thank you. I truly enjoy your channel.

Adam you were the first golf channel I watched 3 years ago and still the most understandable. I have tried 3 in-person instructors so far and some provide information that is just beyond the student's understanding or drills that are not right for the situation. One coach told me I was casting and I had to rebuild by entire swing.... when I was actually just over the top a little I practiced an in to out swing and played with wedges a while and fixed it myself in 2 days. I am more accurate than him at 99 yards verified on launch monitor. The truth was I needed to use the muscles I have and not muscles I don't have, so fix the path, not the golfer. at 5:02 you are hinting at that concept. What works for Tigers speed and shaft lean may not work for everyone. I call it Bio Golf Coaching where a good instructor works with the student's limitations and builds from there.

I have a question, I’ve heard you’re supposed to have the same swing for every club and just widen your feet to compensate for the different lengths. Is that true? Or are there different planes for each club?

I quit playing for over ten years and only started back up the last 6 months, I went looking at new clubs and was disappointed most sets stop at a 4 iron, I carry a 3 and 2 and can hit them both well - 7 handicap when I played. Anyhow, if I buy a new set I'll probably order a 3 iron for sure.
