The REAL Reason You Scoop Your Golf Shots

If you struggle with fat shots, weak contact, or scooping the ball, your hands may be arriving too late at impact.

In this lesson, Adam Bazalgette explains how "educated hands" can help you create forward shaft lean, move your low point forward, and strike the ball before the turf for better compression and more solid iron shots.

You’ll learn why many golfers flip or scoop through impact, why the club reaches the ground before the ball, and how that leads to weak, high shots, low-face contact, fat shots, and inconsistent ball striking.

In this Scratch Golf Academy video, Adam Bazalgette shares crucial golf instruction on how to educate your hands for better impact. Improve your game with these essential golf tips, focusing on the two key features your club needs to execute. Learn through practical golf drills to enhance your golf swing and achieve more consistent shots.

Adam also shows a simple mini-swing drill to train your lead hand, de-loft the club, and feel the "hammer the nail/tap the back of the ball" motion. You’ll also see how grip position, wrist mobility, body side bend, and weight shift all help create a better golf impact position.

In this video, you’ll learn:

* Why forward shaft lean helps you compress the golf ball
* How to hit the ball before the turf
* Why scooping and flipping ruin solid contact
* How to move your low point forward
* A simple drill for better impact and ball-first contact
* How grip and wrist position affect your ability to strike the ball properly
