You didn't mention ball position in the 3 types of chip shots. Can I assume that low runner ball position was back in your stance and the high flight chip was forward in your stance?

Great finish

Is that a Sparky headcover on your driver? Go Devils!!!

Every time I watch chipping videos, it’s done from the short grass around the green. Where I play, the grass is at least 2 inches high after the apron and the ball nestles down. Show us how to finess these kinds of ships around rbe green. Seems they’re always easy to chunk or blade, and I’ve even seen a number of pros moshing these in recent televised tournaments.

Great drill - I recently added more practice time to the short game. I typically take 4-5 shots with each wedge before changing.

Great drill Blair. This is my biggest weakness and adds 8-10 strokes to my score. I struggle make smooth swing, and turn through the shot, so often either chunk it or blade it across the green.

What wedges do you use?

Thats your tip? Practice...and practice diff trajectories. Huh...never woulda thought a that. PS For the higher ups: I paid for tips , not to watch ads for a service I ALREADY BOUGHT!!

Thank you Blair. My chipping is so,so. But, you have indicated the degree of club to use. Most instructor never mention it.

Definitely need to practice this drill to stop giving strokes away on the course after good drives.
