  1. Comparing Hank’s method to that of the Jim Furyk’s, it’s simpler to keep
    the ball in the middle and use the same putting stroke by simply varying
    the length of the shafts in order to control the distances for the minimum
    air-time and for the maximum ground-time. I have tried the ball in the back
    stand as well because that is the method that I was taught until Furyk. The
    absolute key to the Chip Shot is to concentrate on the execution of the
    same putting stroke for the various distances needed.

  2. The club is probably something close to an 8 or nine iron. Swinging with a
    putter stroke will produce a “bump and run” similar to the shot he did.

  3. Nice descriptions but disappointing how all of the actual swings are during
    closeups so we can’t see his body movement, shoulders, etc. I get the idea
    but it would be nice to actually see his swing, not just the club face
    hitting the ball up close.

  4. Depends on distance. I’ve used a 7 for a pin at back of green on down to a
    PW for shorter shots. I used a 5i, last week, on the green to get through
    the first-cut (sticking out into green, on kidney shaped green) from about
    35 ft. to get it close enough for a short putt. I’ve done pleasantly well
    using this method. So has my 9 yr. old grand daughter
