    Chris, being a seriously challenged golfer I watch a lot of instruction videos/you tube. I would say that of all, yourself and Danny Maud are the clearest and most easily understood. Closely followed by Steve Johnson and Matt Fryer. Thank you all. I am still s***t but now I know why!

      I can say your on the right path and you are watching the right people to learn from though!! i used to be a challenged golfer and after practicing my behind quarters off and watching the exact people you named im now back shooting in the 70s. Danny, chris, and Padraig, and golfTec guy jon i think it is( asian guy) are all really the best ive found. Plus my name is chris ryan 😂😂 and just like chris im on the taller side at around 6'2 so watching him helps me visually see how a taller individual does certain techniques and shots etc

    Just found your videos, this was the first one I watched, this chipping technique was different from what I have been unsuccessfully using, I used it and it probably saved me at least 6-7 strokes the first time out! You are very good at explaining and demonstrating how to make the shots, keep up the great work!

  • @touristguy87
    @touristguy87 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Here is a very simple and straightforward definition that really highlights the functional difference...the naming is one thing, the shot characteristics another thing.
    Pitching I want relatively low ball flight and high turnout relative to carry. It is inherently a lower-energy shot relative to total distance.
    It is a low-rish shot in terms of the risk of blading the ball and of hitting the ball into an intervening hazard. This is an important distinction.
    A chip is relatively a high-energy shot with magnified risk in several areas with the key distinction of reducing the risk of hitting the ball into an intervening hazard. This is what clearly distinguishes a chip from a pitch. You are taking on all the risk of using a higher-lofted club than you would normally use for a pitch of the same distance... in conditions that would favor a putch...and hitting the ball too far or too short or the wrong direction or blading the ball all because you want more shot height and less rollout to hit the ball the same distance.
    Now the advantage of such a shot is that it is much more flexible than a corresponding pitch would be and tends to be more similar to a point-to-point game which is what you tend to see on advanced courses....you can't just spray the ball all over the place and march out, find it and hit it towards the hole without worrying about course hazards. So on hgh-slope courses golf becomes a series of chip shots vs pitches so yes it is very important to have the distinction clear and in my eye he has it completely backwards.
    Just as important we use so many clubs not because they are necessary but because each lift lends itself to different mixtures of the two types which smooth-out when shit distance is considered. You can hit chips with a 3-iron, you can hit pitches with a 9-iron even a 60w if you want to. The blade is always there. So the distinction between chips and pitches is almost as important as the distinction between draws and fades. Golf is a 3D game, 4D if you consider time. It is no simple matter to decide what club and shot-type to hit any more than to decide what line and speed to attempt a putt unless your skills are so limited that you have limited choices. As golfers learn and improve their skills certain shots tend to stand out in certain situations because golf is always a matter of risk vs reward. It is a simple fact that chips raise the risk to a higher minimal level than pitches do, just as hitting driver vs irons. But often, especially on difficult courses or even difficult lies on easy courses, the reverse is true because there are too many obstacles in the way for a pitch, they become much more risky than a chip. The trick is to properly ascertain the risk of disaster and the risk of success and factor in the pros and cons of a bad pitch vs a good chip and make a choice, pick a club, a stance and a target for both the carry and rollout, take the shot and live with the outcome. Golf is an exceptionally good mental and physical test that rewards good judgement and self-control. Unlike many sports which reward boorish behavior. Even celebrate it.

    I'm a amateur. No club membership. No handicap. I just go out & have a bit of fun! Not really knowing wat I'm doin, technically. It's interesting watching people like Chris showing us "plebs" how it's done. Chris likes to promote the use of a number of different clubs when confronted with
    the "short" play. This is where golf gets interesting. What club to use re.
    distance. Well, I've rightly or wrongly chosen #8 iron 4 this job. I'm opposite 2 Chris where he'll choose a different club 4 different presentations. My point here is that I
    control my swing to get the same desired result as opposed to using different clubs. Golf is so complicated with so many variations to choose from! 6 to 1 or 1/2 a dozen of the other! 🤯

    @JSW2610 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Never really understood the difference, had some coaching on the chip shot and it works but I've applied it to all situations, eg chipping over a bunker , I can get it over the sand but invariably it runs too far , I can now adapt the pitch shot instead. Really good point about understanding what suits the individual , need to improve this area as it's where i lose most shots, I'm either too shy or too bold with my chipping, glad i've now got an alternative to look at, especially from a bit more distance from the pin. Excellent advice as always , in comparrison to some other coaching on You Tube you break it down much better. Keep up the great work. Thanks

    Your videos offer the best instruction I’ve found on TH-cam. Very easy to grasp for a beginner like myself.
    Question, do you have a video going into the size of a chip swing? A larger (or smaller) backswing and follow through with a given club clearly change the distance the ball travels.
    Any advise or directing me to another of your videos would be appreciated.

  • @paulgutermann8413
    @paulgutermann8413 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I tend to use the chip shot technique at both types of distance. From further away, I make the shoulder turn larger, increasing the arc length and perhaps a bit more swing speed. With a 56 degree wedge, I am able to carry bunkers or just a fair amount of rough. The problem I have is when I’m a bit too far for a chip technique to have enough carry and roll. This video should help me work on my pitches. Thanks.

    This is great. I have always been uncomfortable with a pitch shot as I thought you had to take loads of grass as well. So basically I have just chipped every short and not-so-short shot with my 7-iron. Resulting sometimes in the s-word (shank) or a totally out of control shot or two adding extra strokes. I now better understand the set up for a pitch shot and will practice various differences - as well as proper chipping set up. Just stumbled onto this video (lucky me!) as I have been pretty much hanging out with Rick Shiels and Todd Kolb. Thanks for a clear and concise session!

    one of the most helpful videos I have seen on pitching and chipping, I would only add that it is important to work out your standard pitching ratios with PW, 9I, 8I etc, i.e. 1-4, 1-3 etc re pitch to roll distance and how to then adjust these to uphil,l down hill, grass grain etc

    Great video. This is a perfect basis for most players. Often the chip shown in videos of tour players is actually a pitch as wrists are being used, but as you said different definitions apply. What helps me playing a ball sitting on top of longer gras (which for higher hc is more often the situation than being on the fairway or first cut) is using less loft, for ex a gap or pitching wedge instead of a sand wedge. This way the club head doesn’t slip through under the ball so easily which avoids shots much too short. Thank you.

    It's all about the wrist hinge. Chip have very limited or no wrist hinge, like a putt. Pitch incorporates a wrist hinge so it's a trickier shot for most.
    Both are essential. Pitch shots in particular are very useful to get out of tree trouble and for damage control around greens.
