Wow there is more golf wisdom in this vid than the 1,000s I’ve watched over the years. Adam is the bomb and the king of teaching.

Adam, could you do more videos around woods and driver swings? 🙏🏻

You nailed it, I never thought about it that I was swinging my hands at the ball. Thank you for this, I'm going to apply this at the range tomorrow for sure!

I almost didn’t watch this because I didn’t think I needed this. But when Adam demonstrated the wrong hand path, it was my swing. More work to do.

I've spent a lot of time in my golf life trying to bring the butt end of the club to the ball on my downswing. This video demonstrates how wrong I have been. I'm just like the golfer in this video. Bringing my hands down near my body is uncomfortable and weird, but when I do it correctly the contact is WAY better. Great video Adam.

Another gem from Porzak Golf. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Adam!!

How does he always seem to post exactly what I need to work on??! Porzak is truly a magician

Keep them nuggets coming Adam!!

This is the best golf instruction on KZfaq. Thank you guys for all you do !!!

Power comes from the angle!! Best tip from the Porzak camp.

Great video, this is exactly what I'm working on after watching a video of myself at the range. Right hands down to right pocket and holding a headcover under my right armpit really helps

Possibly the most magnificent of all your magnificent videos. Thanks dude. Keep em coming

I rarely ever leave a comment but just wanted to give a HUGE thanks to Adam for all the incredible content he continuously puts out! I was battling a swing change and started watching the channel and can honestly say my swing has never looked/felt better. If you look on youtube for golf improvement in my own opinion nobody is better to learn from then Adam.

Love it. Especially the tall guy tip of hand to right knee! Just saw a video of Finau talking about tall guys needing to stay in posture. It’s all starting to click! Thanks Adam!

Adam, Thanks for sharing these lesson “tidbits” on YT. Gotta give the student props. Your swing changed notably! Keep working at it. Would love to see a “Porzak Improvement” follow-on video in the future after implementing Adam’s recommendations!

I am not sure if you guys even read the comments but I wanted to thank you for taking the time to put out these videos that I am sure have helped a lot of golfers out there. I had never been able to hit the the ball so clean and at the same time rotate so freely until I started to implement your swing to my game. I can not thank you enough . I can play now and have fun at the same time. Thank you so much ..

I haven’t connected with any other videos like yours. I don’t know why more people don’t film their students as a way of teaching. It’s tough to copy and relate with an instructor who effortlessly whips out a beautiful swing that has taken years and years of practice and continues to tell you how easy golf is, but to see you work with amateurs and witness them pick it up in real time makes it more real that I can actually fix my pulls and snap hooks. I am absolutely obsessed with golf and just put a sim in my garage. For the first time ever I hit 6 baby draws in a row after watching some of these videos and one of them lipped out of the cup. I’ve got 2 young kids so I have to balance my obsession but I need a coach like you to get to the next level. I’m up in the Inland Empire area in Eastvale but one of these days I’m going to come down there for a lesson with you and it’s going to be magical when you fix my pulls and snap hooks. Please don’t go anywhere Porzak Golf!

This is exactly what I need to work on. Perfect timing!

I can’t remember the last time I commented on a KZfaq video. Adam - this is just awesome content! I’ve been struggling with this same issue throwing my hands out toward the ball. You put such a great explanation together. Thank you for sharing this content

Thank you for this content. My swing consistency has skyrocketed using these drills. The success coming your way is well deserved.

Great instruction. Thank you

Nice lesson! Thanks!

Best golf video ever

Absolutely love this! And what I feel is the main missing piece in my swing right now! Will definitely be trying these drills 🙏🏻

This is a great lesson love the , Explanation and method easy to follow

This is exactly what I have been drilling after a long time of rolling disconnected arms up to a flat back swing and steepening on the way down. The student is so right about the feeling that you’re gonna have to trust your body to move correctly if your hands have previously been out and throwy.

That very last swing looked the best to me. Very flowy looking with the correct sequence. It looked like a swing you’d see on a scratch golfer. No early extension and his follow through looked effortless

I’ve come to realize that when I get my hands out towards the golf ball, it also promotes early extension and for me that leads to a hook. I love this drill as it helps with both!

I've finally started to get my hands more close to my body on the downswing. I was shaking quite a bit and this has helped. I'll also practice holding that angle down as I was coming to parallel more. I'll see if it helps. Thanks.

Yes sir 👌🏽Gold as usual❤🏌🏽‍♂️

I need this lesson soooo bad

Great video like always. My question is should you feel as if you're pulling the handle down on the downswing? It seems as if it's the only way to keep those hands down and inside.

Excellent

Great video pro

I started trying to improve my golf swing in 2018 after playing for almost 30 years with an OTT swing. It’s very difficult to undo all that. I’m afraid I caused my instructor at the time a lot of grief. Unfortunately I had learned lots of compensations that produced more or less straight shots but lacking compression. The pandemic interrupted my journey, then I moved to another state. There are many good teachers on KZfaq and I’ve finally arrived at a point where an in to out swing feels more normal but I have a way to go yet.

I am so glad I found your channel! Been watching other YT videos and they just don’t help me. Never hit the ball better with my irons. So I’m wondering if this hand path works with the driver also? Thanks!

This is purely awesome lesson and drills. Thank you so much for sharing this. Does it apply exactly same to the driver? Meaning could I use the same drill for the driver? Could you also do a video on driver with the handpath please?

I think many tall players like myself have this same issue...thank you for a drill!! My sequence is great down the line on the way back but throwing my hands to the ball is the killer.

Would love to see a video on swing triggers/how to start the swing

I was improving my swing through your videos, to the point that my buddies were commenting on how well I was playing. Then I seemed to have lost the feel. This is exactly what I needed and perfect timing! BTW, anyone know if the driver is the same type of feel?

Great stuff. Need help with getting on my left side. When I don’t I pull hook every shot. When I manage to get on my left side with a high finish it’s straight to baby draw.

Put this man on the Mt Rushmore of best golf instructors

My downswing thoughts? Keep the left wrist dead... So I don't spoil my carefully constructed knuckles down backswing by getting wristy again on the way back. Drive hands to my right knee in downswing sounds like a plan. I already adopted the Porzak early wrist set in the backswing with great results.

hmm interesting concept holding that angle on the downswing to the right knee. I am going to give this a shot. Do you guys ever do any vids on below the plane with woods only? ill have to search

another gem! was just trying to work on hand path recently too! trying to eliminate those hooks!

you're a wizard

I’ve experimented with close in hand path and lower handle through impact on many occasions. Always results in clean contact and excellent dispersion. However for some reason I lose a solid 10y of distance off my irons . Not sure if it’s added loft or slower swing speed causing it.

Awesome stuff! Just a question, if you hold the wrist angles on the way down, when do you release those angles?

Adam - Weren't you developing a training aid for hand path that would work for takeaway and downswing? I thought I saw a video last year about it?

My pro at Crosswater, Robby, calls this 'jail'. Years later, I put myself in jail at the range daily.

Other videos you mention hammering the nail but it is more forward. This one he is hammering it earlier in down swing. Any difference?

The same thing Tiger was practising with Charlie at the masters I believe? And with butch in one of those old footage.

Is this lesson applicable for all clubs. Currently struggling with my game.

Just brilliant, could we see some fairway wood swings

Did this path drill, and it seems to over draw. How do i get better face control and eliminate the left side. Contact is better but missing greens to the left with this tip?

I consistently have toe-heavy, outside-in divots, was that him as well?

So what comes first - early extension or high hands? To me, it seems like the high hands at impact are a result of early extension.

Unreal. But I’ve just been down the rabbit hole of your pitching and wedge videos. Am I correct in thinking this ‘hold the angle’ thought is for full shots only? It seemed to me for the 80 and in wedge play you were teaching less hinge and more back and through, unless you’re in the rough and then you hinge for a bit more angle of attack.

Is that hand path the same for the driver?

i keep hitting the ground before the ball doing this ?? any tips ??

I’m going to save this video and watch it over and over. My hands are about a foot out too far.

Is the downswing hand path inside the backswing hand path?

I’ve tried a million things to stop me coming over the top, the only thing that worked was trying to get the hands back to where they started

I'm standing on the edge of the Snake River Canyon with Evil Knievil. He's on his rocket bike and he's going to jump over a mile wide gap. I ask him if he can do it. He gives me a sideways glance and blithely replies "No problem, I've taken lessons from PorzakGolf."

A shorter compressed back swing would benefit him tremendously. He's tall enough he doesn't need all that. It's helped my game.

I’m confused how you don’t have it fat if you return to the “air bubble.” I tried this and hit the ground like a foot behind the ball.

if I'm chunking it while doing this is there an obvious reason why it could be because if I'm not doing this I don't chunk it. and no I'm not steep if anything I would describe my downswing too shallow

Can you make it and precise iron vs woods vs driver? Almost the same? Hands more away from your body… thanks!

Has anyone ever seen Ari Gold - Jeremy Pivens (Entourage) and Adam in the same room.

Am I the only one who initially thought this was Aaron Rodgers?? 😄

BEEF !

Downswing thought #1: Don’t f@$k this up again!
