Hello Shawn,
great stuff again, one question if i may:
On the „Chipping Video“ you clearly state to use an open club face.
When it comes to pitching, shall we let the face open as well, or close it as if we do a full shot?
many thanks and best regards,
Thomas
Hi Thomas! Just like the full swing! If playing a fade for a high soft pitch, you keep it square to slightly open depending on the shot and for a low “one hop and stop”, you close it like a nice low punch draw.
really appreciated! thank you very much!
Please explain what you did differently that made the draw pitch grabby versus soft. I can’t seem to pull off the low spinning, quick-stopping short approach shot. How do you increase velocity to achieve the extra spin without hitting shot too far?
Because we are playing the ball farther back in the stance, and closing the face, we trap the ball better and when you compare this to the higher pitch (with a lob wedge) which feels a bit glancey, it will feel and be spinier because there is more compression. Goldie locks will get you the distance with both types of shot.
