  1. honestly this is pretty basic, but i tend to stick with sand wedge or
    putter if thin fringe becuz for me my sand wedge (56 degree) helps me know
    a for sure feel to a distance

  2. Why piss around with different clubs? If you can hit a SW consistently
    you’ll always get a good result. I will often use a LW because I can stop
    the ball dead and then don’t have to read the green at all. Point and
    shoot. Why run the ball up the green if you don’t have to? REMOVE THE
    VARIABLES. Learn how to swing the club.

  3. @burkeyatm Cutting out variables is the whole point of this lesson. Using
    only one club for various length shots means you’re having to change your
    backswing lengths and/or how hard/soft you hit it. You’ll never be
    consistent all of the time doing that because you can’t possibly remember
    how exactly to repeat swings for shots of vastly varying lengths. This
    method teaches you ONE swing. By practicing it with a 9, 5, and 7, you will
    see 3 separate distances that are repeatable and consistent.

  4. yea i use 7 iron. all my friends think im crazy but i was taught to do this
    6 years ago. it really works just hit it a lil short and let the ball roll.
    no need for a pw bc its to much loft and u risk bladeing trying to get that
    loft. depending on ur situation ofcourse though

  5. Hi Bobby – thanks so much for the chipping tips! I played yesterday after
    watching this and a couple other of your short game videos and saw a marked
    improvement in my game. What really helps me is making sure to keep my
    weight and club left. Thanks again!!

  6. if you want to learn how to chip watch phil mickelson, he is one of the
    best chippers in the world

  7. @burkeyatm golf isn’t concerned with an objective ‘best way to do it’. one
    man’s variables are another man’s tools.

  8. Don’t agree! No-one I play with chips with anything less than a 9 iron!The
    run from a closed 9 iron will easily make 30 yards. For fast running greens
    – a 52° wedge is a must particularly if you are in 2nd cut rough.
    Personally if I were as close as his first chips I would be putting it. He
    is right next to the fringe-As he shows later on! His longer chips are
    moving uphill! You can also blade the ball your wedge.I prefer PW or 52°
    around the greens.The 3wood chip requires much practice.
