    One of the great mental tips for these kinds of shots I heard from Nick Faldo, who advised not to think about what you DON'T want to happen, but think about what you do. So, don't think "Don't hit it in the bunker" because that sentence contains the words "hit it in the bunker" but to instead think "Get it on the green" or "pitch it on that fringe." That in itself won't make you an expert, but it changes the mindset to encourage success.

    Around the green is the one place that I make up shots on those I play with; although usually not enough to make up for all the shots it takes me to get within 60 yards of the green. The best tip I was given for flop shots like this was to take the club away on the outside and hit the shot out to in (something I unfortunately do with most clubs). This really helped me to get closer to tight pins, also helped me out of green side bunkers.

    Man! Watched your recent vid about chipping off of tight lies on Tuesday. Played comp Wednesday morning - first hole, rated #3, pushed 2nd shot 25 meters right of a short sided pin. Used your mid-stance, bounce technique for a 2 bounce hole out. YOU DA MAN!

    @pockydoobles1767 4 года назад

    This and putting are the only 2 shots I can physically play. Multiple joint replacements due to juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (36yrs of it) and limited movement means I can't actually perform a full swing. The wife got a hole with liftable handle for the garden so I can have some fun when well enough. Yep, I get severe pain payback, but it's fun and passes the time. Might invest in a 56 wedge (only have a cheap pw atm) to add to the fun with some obstacles. Great vid as always pal, they cheer me up when stuck in bed.

    Hi Peter, I would like to thank you for your tip! I have been struggling with chips over bunkers and even close to the hole (10 - 20 yards out) I watched your video twice and love the straight arm and letting your body do the swing. Today was my first round since looking at your video. Well on the third hole about 15 yards off the left side of green with having to go over the cart path and the green being elevated I chipped with my 60 degree like you showed and the ball went up and on the second bounce it hit the pin and stayed a few inches from the hole! On the 13 th hole I was about 25 yards out and again took the 60 degree and it landed 6 inches from the hole!!! My brother was in shock lol thanks again Pete and keep helping us with our game!!!

    Your videos are awesome. I really enjoyed this particular one. Growing up golfing with my dad and grandfather I ended up unknowingly self-teaching myself to pound the bounce by bringing the shaft back to vertical on impact. That was a little too high on the face and a little less spin for consistent distance control in some situations. I would love to see flop shot vs lower launch higher spin shots within 100 and that bunker shot from this video if someone missed it short and into the bunker with the different lies you may get in that sandy oasis.

    A good way to feel this shot ... take your stance as you were doing without a club and with a ball in your trail hand. Practice tossing the ball underhanded, with your trail hand, and get the feel of how that train hand moves. Then, grab your wedge, drop a ball, and hit a shot trying to remember and keep the feel of the underhand toss. Works a treat ... and can work in soft sand too.

    When I was a kid, long before anybody told me it was wrong, I used to practice hitting wedges a little bit fat for situations like this. It worked really well, playing many more kinds of shots with something a little like bunker technique. This with an ordinary late-60s pitching wedge. These days I'm embarrassed to do it.

  • @golf007sd2
    @golf007sd2 4 года назад

    A very well technique and recommendation of hitting such a shot(s) for all levels of players. My addition is: clubhead location. To get the ball higher, utilize the "high-toe" portion of a wedges clubface. The more a ball spends time on high-lofted clubface the higher it will go and the softer it will land. So take note of your ball potion upon setup.

    great video - thanks pete. i've become quite proficient during lockdown in clearing an 8 foot conifer and fence in the garden with a 64 degree wedge - and landing it softly on a narrow strip of wasteground, stopping it before it rolls down the embankment onto the railway line. but, am yet to find this of any direct practical use on the course...;-) however, now, in my mind i see that conifer as the obstacle i need to clear on the course - not a scary bunker - and experience tells me i can clear that conifer. p.s you missed out the 'woeful' golfer category - which i'm in...

  • @deldridg
    @deldridg 4 года назад

    Great vid. I would be somewhere between the proficient and expert level for these shots but am still a little intimidated at times on either extremely tight lies, particularly if it's a bit wet with grabby turf interaction. Here I find myself being concerned about the bounce on my SM7 60 deg - perhaps a touch too much. To make sure I get through, I do 2 things - first I limit the backswing to shorter than usual and really crunch through using tummy muscles to turn my body through with very quiet hands. Second, I always pre-visualise the clubhead in its finish position as I accelerate through. The shorter backswing reduces impact error, the higher than usual acceleration gives a better bite - especially using a very open clubface for a green sloping away from me, and the pre-visualisation really helps with getting through properly. Finally, I practice this shot *a lot* (at least 50 times per week) from very tight lies, into the grass grain (particularly difficult) and from downhill lies into a very tight landing zone (hellishly difficult). Over time you will gain the skills and confidence and it can really save you shots during the round. Many thanks and cheers from Sydney, Aust - Dave
