Thank you for getting straight to the point in your videos and no rambling like a lot of other golf pros with videos.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Kal, Thanks very much. Glad they are helpful to you. Best, Adam

[@Kalmworld1]

Adam, I went to the driving range today and after watching your "Stop Slicing" videos, my shots were straight today!

[@sharkhark]

Really? I'm 7 minutes in and he's rambling about Jack Nicklaus and Payne Stewart I've yet to hear real tips and videos almost over. Worst video ever

[@williammacmillan2648]

This is one of many good videos. Its just not hitting a ball with a stick. Adam explains how to be a better student of the game. This video allows you to be a better student.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks for the comment William. Best, Adam

[@thesurfstudmuffin]

Thanks Adam! Amazing that you can always come up with new ways to think about relevant topics. Cheers!

Thanks Edward, glad you liked the video. All the best, Adam

Always a holistic approach to golf. Very few coaches do that. Brilliant advice.....respect from South Africa

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks very much Sailesh. All the best, Adam

[@warwolfii]

I would like to take a moment to thank you for your very clear and very helpful exposition of the use of fairway woods. This area of the game has been a real problem for me and the many videos I've seen on KZbin have generally been very contradictory and confusing. I look forward to seeing more from your channel.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks for the comment, I'm glad it was helpful for you. Best, Adam

[@robertbentzel6881]

60 year old here. Playing for 7 yrs. With your help/videos I finally cracked 90. No big deal?right. To me it is. Seeing that I only broke 100 four times. Thanks. Can’t wait for the next lesson

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks for the note Robert, and congrats! Best, Adam

[@vicdecarlo1803]

As one who plays fairways reguraly this is good information. Simple, direct and informative.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Vic. All the best, Adam

The best instructional video on FWoods

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Raymond

Learning everyday from your teaching,only been in the game of golf 6 years but at 66 its nice to find someone who can teach an old dog some new tricks.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Michael, Glad you are seeing progress in your game! Best, Adam

Hi

[@davidmccreadie6449]

What an eyeopener your videos are! I've never had these points explained to me in this way before...it just makes so much sense! Thank you sir. Off to the range I go :-)

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks David, hope you make good progress. All the best, Adam

[@johnannaradnam]

A very useful video. I will try and use the advice and let you know soon Thanks John Annaradnam

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Hope it goes well for you John

[@surprisesurprisemf]

Hi Adam, your Videos and descriptions are very good to understand and helpful. Wish you are here in germany. Thanks, Harald

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Harald, I'm glad they are helpful to you. Best, Adam

[@Simondo13]

You're a very smart man Adam! Another great video. Well done.Thanks again for your insight into "the game". I'm now draining easy Par shots, and getting lots of 10-30 foot birdie opportunities, mainly due to you! (and some of my persistent and calculated work on the range, and course). Plus many tap-in Bogies...Regards, Simon & son Teo, down at The Sands, Australia... and yes we have lots of sandy bunkers down here! :)

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Greetings to you down in Australia! All the best, Adam

[@warwolfii]

Splendid advice. Although I have made significant progress with my swing over the last couple of years, fairway woods have remained a problem. I've gotten around it a little by carrying a 7-wood with which I've been fairly consistent, although somewhat shorter. I will take your advice to the practice ground as I have with several of your videos. Thank you.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks for watching the videos. Glad you are making progress with your game. Best, Adam

[@amolakpowar6267]

Very clean talk and convincing.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Amolak Best, Adam

[@golflover2151]

I can't imagine anyone giving you a thumbs down on any of your videos..they are the best. It must be other instructors that are jealous..

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks very much Jennifer, that's kind of you. Best, Adam

Thanks very helpful. At Ft. Myers CC last week and hit some low Screamers. Loved your point of reading the lie with more intent.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Andrew, glad it was helpful. Best, Adam

[@randoshus3762]

I love this video...You really go into the right details. Do you reckon playing on cheap courses with sparse grass is hurting golfer's technique?

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Ran. Regards sparse grass, it's not as easy, but you have to hit down on ball just a little more. All the best, Adam

[@jungormerod6387]

This was such a great video providing an excellent mental picture! Thank you so much!

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks very much! Best, Adam

[@thechosen1557]

adam you are legend. i like how you explain with depth. i subscribed

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks very much Michael! Best, Adam

[@gruhl6122]

Very interesting video on a topic I need help with. It seems like you are saying that for a tight lie in the fairway you need forward lean to get the ball high because that allows you to hit higher on the face. I had always assumed that forward lean would result in lower trajectory because the face is delofted. Am I understanding your instruction correctly?

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Glenn, Forward lean does make the ball go lower, but you need enough for solid contact, which is more on a tight lie. Again, you’ll lose some loft, but it’s worth it for solid contact. Thanks, Adam

[@demetriobaltazar6575]

Thanks Adam another awesome video!

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks very much Demetrio! Best, Adam

[@peterscott1965]

Adam, I think you deserve an even wider audience

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Craig, glad you liked it. All the best, Adam

[@Robert.Dickson]

Great videos. Looking forward to putting it into practice but Glasgow weather is a bit unpredictable at the moment.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Robert. I'm somewhat familiar with that weather, I lived in Scotland (Forres) for a couple of years when I started playing golf.Best, Adam

[@carlosmelville]

Thanks once again for another excellent video, have been having trouble with getting my 3 wood sufficiently airborne on tighter fairway lies, will get this a try.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Best of luck Carlos. Thanks, Adam

[@MGN01]

Is it advisable to tilt the fairway wood a little stronger before one hits the ball? (To hit the ball on the sweet spot?)

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

It depends on the loft of club, and the lie (and also how low you want to hit the ball). For instance a 3 wood from a lie where ball is sitting up wouldn't need much de-loft, a 7 wood off tight lie would need more. Hope this helps. Best, Adam

[@stevenhoxsie4422]

WTF…….come man, hit the damn ball! Words don’t make a golf ‘how to’ video. We need at least some visual. That was 10 mins I’ll never get back…..JEEEZ !

[@superballer398]

Great video this helped my game a ton!

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Glad to hear it! Thanks for the comment. Best, Adam

[@stangetz534]

Great nuance and flexibility on your lesson. Thank you I will try it.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Thanks Stan, hope you make good progress Best, Adam

[@stangetz534]

@@Scratchgolfacademy Thank you I played 5.0 tennis and am transferring as many feels as possible. Working getting that 3 wood fairway swing as loose and smooth as a serve. Be well!

[@limarc1985]

Thank you for this video clip. How can I use a hybrid to play a high shot about 120 to 150 yards? I appreciate if you can explain the set up ( wide or narrow) and the ball position.

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Lionel, Not sure I'd do anything that different to a normal fairway wood shot. Maybe play the ball a little more forward (if the lie is good) to get some extra height. Stance width would not specifically affect height of shot. Naturally the more lofted hybrid you choose the higher the ball can potentially go. This, of course, depends on how far you can hit the ball. Summary, play the ball a little forward, then put a strong swing on it. Hope this helps. All the best, Ada.

[@limarc1985]

Thank you very much Adam for your very quick reply. Yes I got your point and let you know the results soon. Best regards, Lionel

can u pls upload a video showing how to hit the ball at equator or divots forming after the ball consistently for every club. I mean the perfect swing required for this kind of shot. Plssss

[@seanchewgolf9584]

Dear Adam Bazalgette, My 3-wood is 15 degrees of loft and does it works? From, Sean Chew

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Sean, 15 degrees is pretty standard for a 3 wood these days. It takes quite a bit of clubhead speed to get good height on it. You look young, but hopefully you'll get good results. All the best, Adam

[@marksmith7399]

Wtf dude! So I need custom clubs and I have to have solid contact? Plus club head speed? Swing the freaking club already!

[@Scratchgolfacademy]

Sorry you didn't like the video. That said, regardless of what I say, or what you or anyone else thinks, without solid contact and decent speed the ball just isn't going to fly very high. No worries, best, Adam

[@robertmacdonell9900]

You ramble insesently! Try demonstrating more and stop talking so much.

Watching the videos is optional Robert

Sorry it wasn't helpful for you Martin. My purpose in this video was to give people the facts as to what causes woods to go high, or lower. They can then practice and experiment to try and make progress. Best, Adam
