Been following him for a while he explains golf simply and clearly. I have knocked off a few strokes watchin him. Great teaching

This video really helped me

Another great video, Adam. You make complex concepts seem so simple; I love the analogies comparing the golf swing to various other athletic movements. Keep up the great content.

Great lesson on separating the hips from the torso. I’ve been working on this and it’s helped my ball striking a lot.

Great tips, drills, and verbalization of something i’ve literally been trying to improve for 2 decades. Thank you. And cheers

One of the best coaches..Keep it up..Learnt a lot from your videos

Adam; Thank you for this one. I have NEVER had it explained like this and now I have some more hard work to do.

This guy is like the Bob Ross of golf. What a legend.

So much to remember. I will have to keep on watching several times and many thanks for the lesson (Y)

LOVE Your Videos thanks for the help

Amazing simple advice. You're my absolute fav online instructor! Once you get that "feel" for the slot and add your advice about the whip of the club like a towel... your distances sore. I've always been steep, so my irons are long and high. Hit down to hit high can work with irons, but with a driver this is dangerous. My power fade is not bad, but I wanted that upward strike to get more effortless distance with driver and I've found it! Yes you'll duck hook a few times as you adjust, but the effortless power will come with a bit of practice. Thank you for dispelling all the old golf instructor adages and vocab that can be impossible to correlate to feel. I could not have made them "real" without your simplified techniques. I now realize how much swing speed I've negated over the 3 decades I've played and how I've relied on my strength to compensate off the tee with the driver. I look back at friends and competitors that could never hit an iron as far as I could, but would be neck and neck with driver. What?! I hit a 56 wedge 90 yards so effortlessly with your technique in competition...bummer is that the pin was only 70 yards LOL. Joking aside, you have saved my back for more years of play, and increased swing speed. I feel far more relaxed on the course. Thank you!

Your swing is really fast 😮👍👍👍

Great description, thank you

Thanks always nice to see and hear how you explain.

Everything you’ve taught has been very helpful. Thanks.

Superb video Adam, fantastic swing too! Will take all this onboard. Hiptastic!!

I was looking for a downswing drill to keep the club on plane and this video was perfect for that. Thank you.

Great teaching. Loved how you applied videos of others and how you qualified a personalized approach is important. Not everyone will look the same swinging. but the principal of execution in hitting the ball is about striking the ball . Great visuals to work with

Very nice. Your example of baseball player "loading up" bat position while transferring pressure to front foot is a great mental image

I agree with everyone. Great video!

Adam. That was an excellent demonstration of how the hips swivel and move opposite the arms on the downswing. I have been watching and taking lessons for years and I have never seen it explained and more importantly demonstrated as clearly as this. The segment where you put your hands on the bag and rotate your hips so easily and rapidly was the key for me. This I can not do!!!!!!!!. I'm a 63 year old senior and I don't think I could do that even when I was young. LOL. Thanks for the insight. My back hurt just watching you. I guess I will never be a big hitter. Oh well. I will have to settle for 180 Yds drives on a good day. Take care.

Your instruction is always helpful because you show there are multiple ways to achieve the feel to get the results you are working toward

Adam, you are both a superb teacher and a congenial gentleman. You love what you do and it just shows. Thanks for all your free videos!

Outstanding information Adam. Many thanks.

Adam, your instruction and explanation is always so pure and simple. My game has noticeably improved from your videos

Thanks Adam, by a country mile the best instructor on the internet.

Enjoying your wonderful instruction style!

Mr. Bazalgette, I admire your videos. This video in particular has helped me to move my body in the proper sequence -- leading with the hips and trunk on both the upswing and the downswing -- and improve the consistency of my iron shots. Thank you for your clear, wonderful instruction.

I’ve been trying to figure out impact for a while. As a new player I can’t tell you how much your videos have helped me.

Wanted to give you a shout out. The video on allowing the grip to clear the ball first and throwing the golf club. Has helped me greatly.

Thanks for the drills.

What a swift smooth swing 👍👍👍

I was pausing at the top of the golf swing to control my backswing speed. The addition of cocking after the pause adds yards to my drive. Great tip.

I love watching your videos and then working on my swing at the range. Easy and simple!

I like the tennis / baseball analogy. Great “spring” drill too.

Adam, thanks for this great video. I tried the techniques mentioned in this video last week, and my club/ball contact improved dramatically.

Love the vids

I watched a lot of Golf videos And found your videos. I think they are best videos out there. The great mynute details you give ,, very few instructors do.

you gave me great insight which i have never conceptualized...terrific-I appreciate it!

Great stuff

Adam excellent video on one the key movements to creating good contact with the ball. I will try this exercise until I’ve cracked it.

I'm a lady golfer and find your lessons on this channel clear and easy to understand. Thank you and keep posting these great videaos👍🙋

Great as usual!

Gentleman and top golf coach. Thank you for all your time.

Great video!

Most helpful. I'll try it.

thank you...very useful video

Great tips

I like the thought of what you got going in the separation, looks good for an old guy to work on, now if I only knew of one.

great video, Merci

This is great, my hips open well and i strike it beautifully when it all works. I still thought maybe they should be open a lot more and I was wrong, but seeing the difference between different pros has put my mind at ease. Thank you very much.

Working on it thank you

Adam, great video as always. Helps to explain how to increase club head speed and generate power. As you watch the video, note that all the pros keep that trailing elbow tucked in. That, along with the hip movement, is key. I can now hit my 3W off the tee 250Y w/o tons of effort.

Very awesome!

Excellent! Subscribed

Brilliant 👏🏼

Hi Adam. This definitely helped. I could strike the ball better and better delivery of the club.

Well Done, I need to try the downward movement and then up Thanks

Adam...great thoughts on separating your hips from your shoulders. Going to use this as my "swing key" for my round today. Also love video #2 in your Gain 25 yards video series!

Great explanation!! Love how you show what to do. Does make me think of Chuck Berry's "The Twist" dance when I was a little kid. Great videos, you do explain well!!

Awesome tip

Excellent teaching.

Adam is the best. Really easy to follow and his content is super relatable. Its like learning how to play golf with your dad. His instruction is great. I wish he had an Instagram acct. :) Thank you for uploading such helpful videos and growing the game of golf sir.

Thanks Adam

thanks so much!

Great drills Adam, those hips don’t lie.

Thank you

Great video. I’ll give this a go, no matter what I’ve try my hips are only ever back to the address position at impact rather than open.

The hip turn is my biggest weakness. Great lesson. I need to drill and drill your lesson before I hit my next ball. Thanx, Adam. jt

Adam has some of the best golf content on you tube.

Das beste vom besten

Excellent content! Trying to correct a 20 plus year incorrect swing is not easy but I'm on to something when i find a video like this that suits my learning style.

Here's something I do... I have a tendency to over swing with my arms at the top. So, right before I reach the top of my backswing, I'll start initiating my legs, and hips, to start my downswing. This works two fold. It shortens my backswing a bit, and also starts my sequence off correctly. So, if you're someone that finds it hard to "pause" at the top, give this a try. Like he said... There's more than one way to make that dynamic move, to start your downswing. But, it's a necessary athletic move, if you want club head speed.

This video completely helped eliminate hooking the ball! I had no idea how uncoordinated my hips and shoulders were. One thing I did was imagined I was using a tempo trainer and right at the very end of the transition I had a swing thought to “unlock” my hips if that makes sense. I was getting so frustrated so thanks for the great lesson!

Finally put myself on slow motion video and get to the top good but coming down near impact my hips are barely open and right arm almost straight at impact so got to figure out how to move the hips better. Thanks Adam! I will try these tips

Great

Wow - thanks Adam - first time I have ever seen anybody talk about the separation of hips and shoulders - I have been told I am too handsy and trying to get more hips into it that has caused my shoulders to throw over the top leading to weak slices and other ugliness - my local pro said I should get more like "Shakira" and no I know what he means - thanks Ill try it out on the range this afternoon and report back

Good video.

I would love to fly out and take a couple lessons with you. You make it look so easy and logical. Thanks again!

Just wanted to tell you, l know this has nothing to do with your hips., but changing my working with my grip that you have taught. Yes I found what works for me. A more neutral grip with the club hip high and level slight turn to the toe to the left. Point being like you said, try things out and see what works for you thank you thank you

subbed!

What a nice swing you have.

So good.

Thanks

Adam has a buttery swing. Good stuff bud

Thanks for the advice and drills! It's one of the areas I'm working on in my swing. I look forward to putting it into practice soon.

great lesson Adam, just tried it in my golf net and I got a really good feeling of anchoring on my left foot through impact. Even though I am a low handicap player I always finish on my toes with a feeling of falling over. This lesson helps a lot with my balance

Wow, what a simple idea. So so effective. Thank you

Really, really explains a problem I have been having causing me to snap hook my shots to the left. I can now work on correcting my problem just by watching this video. Understanding what is going on with the hips, I feel confident solving my problem.

Great lesson Adam..That's my problem forever, my iron play is never consistent, weak and balloon to the right..I will try this drill Thank You!!

3:56 excellent dance move. I will certainly take that to the dance floor.

I wrote a comment below, in which I ask Adam to give us a method of playing golf that DOESN'T rely on disassociation. The case I make is that only the most accomplished golfers ever really develop the skill to play golf with the proper sequencing. Further, I proposed that body-type, age (and I didn't mention height) and weight all play a roll in making disassociation difficult. Finally, I point out, that if the average 50 or over golfer goes out and hits a large bucket of balls, and REALLY disassociates, he'll (women not so much) be laid up on the barcalounger watching daytime talk shows for a week, as his back recovers. None of these comments were meant to be disrespectful to Adam, or dispute this video's message. The video is 100% on point in defining the very essence of the golf swing: lower body starting the swing (after a nice hip turn back); left hip sliding and turning out to help move the weight to the left side; and left shoulder rising up and staying online as the hips turn under (disassociation). That's it! Just figure out how to set and release your wrist angles and you're there. The problem? Look at the points listen below. They were taking from a "swing faults study" golf.com posted. The study analysed thousands of golfers through an app called Swing Index App. What it shows, is what anyone who has ever gone to a driving range knows: most golfer's fall back a bit (sway or don't shift their weight at all) as they try and "pick the ball up" (because, how else does it make sense that the ball gets up in the air, they ask). So Adam, since we know it's a lost cause to teach old dogs new tricks (for sure, give young and beginning golfers this video), give us something new for the sake of our backs! That's all I was saying; and it was out of respect for your obvious knowledge of the golf swing. Maybe Tiger is the answer. It's clear that Tiger is trying some sort of anti "reverse C" swing. That new driver finish looks wipe-py, because he's trying to exit before the full force of the swing hits his back ( well, it is a wipe swing; left is his miss). I've been trying a Webb Simpson move ( I'm a 65 year old, blade using, tips playing, recovering reverse C'er with 4.7 index); Webb, at normal speed, looks like a 16 handicapper the way he appears to fire his left shoulder out with his hips ( in slow motion he doesn't but he "pops out" fast). Let's find a way! For the betterment of golf. - Most golfers who struggle to break 100 tend to struggle with their weight shift on the backswing, swaying too far back. -Golfers who shoot around 90 also struggle with their weight shift more than anything else, but in a slightly different way. Rather than swaying too far back, they don’t shift their weight at all. - The best golfers struggle with the most advanced problem: The downswing sequence. Golfers ideally should shift toward the target, then rotate their body, then rise through the ball. Getting that order correct is crucial

Hi Adam, great content as usual? I note in the video that Bubba's toe line (stance) is quite open at address, but Paul Casey's are quite square? Does having them open at address help with the hip turn through the downswing? And can you please do a piece on the dreaded reverse pivot and the power loss it create's?

Watching all the things Tiger does in the course of a swing is intimidating.

Wow, I just tried this in the yard with some foam practice balls and almost immediately felt a huge increase in club head speed! Thanks!

super

Finally! Finally! I breaks 90,! for the 1st time after 3 months playing golf..thanks boss!

I like the Hal Sutton suggestion, feel like back hip is hitting the ball.

I've watched 3 of your videos on hip turn, really helpful, especially helps to prevent too much early overswinging with arms, and allows me to swing more inside to out with hands closer to body; seeing this right? Second question, where is your weight on left foot, inside or outside heal, as this (hip slide) seems to shift it outside, is that okay?
