Martin Chuck shows how multiple clubs and shot types can be played around the green. Know your game and use the shots your most comfortable with to get up and down more often.

Martin, Is the rule that if the ball is above your feet, the club will naturally take it left? And is it opposite if the ball is below your feet? Will the club want to take it to the right?
Really great info. I've been out with an injury for a while. My long game has made a decent comeback, but I still struggle with club choice and confidence in my short game - this will help.
I think I "stand up" in the golf swing which creates a steep swing for me. Is the shoulder down move coupled with hip rotation basically what you are telling us in this video? Taking the club slowly straight back, rotating the hips and swinging through the ball??
On the downswing it appears your head shifts ahead of the ball.
Not behind the ball. Do you drive up on the follow through?
Martin:
Does Tourstriker sell the magnet/ball to put on the face of the club?
what kind of ping irons you recommend for a 18 hcp.
Good stuff. Sometimes while practicing chips and pitches I begin to hit low spinning shots to the right (right-handed golfer). These are not shanks, but the face of the club must be presenting wide open and its psychologically devastating. Any thoughts?
I keep hitting into the ground on most clubs, my practice swings, I take huge divots, plus the divots start about 2-3inches behind the ball. Not sure what I am doing that I dig into the ground on wedges, irons, and even woods.
You made both those shots look simple! I would be upset I ended up it that spot but making par with a tap in from a tough spot to even a harder pin placement gives us all hope! Your the best and again thanks for making us all better golfers!!
Great tip, as are all your golf tips (have really helped me! Playing off wiry Bermuda rough here in Florida, would you make any adjustments? Thanks again.
