- This simple concept from Michael Breed will help you shave strokes off your short game by providing consistency in your strike and launch angle. Focus on rotating your body, not just your arms, to allow the "hold" to continue through the shot. #GripTip #GolfPride #LetsDoThis

SO GOOD! 😍👏👏👏
Great information! Watched phil’s videos
On hinge and hold and cant wait to try it.
I felt like i needed more information on the mechanics started looking fir videos and found yours you brought it home for me.
Thanks!
Really good explanation of the technique Michael. I was struggling with my short game, especially 30-50 pitch shots, I practiced this a couple of times and felt good. When I took it to the course in a comp. I was amazed at the quality and effortlessness of my pitch shots, and the sound and feel of the ball coming off the face, it was like a dream come true, and my playing partners complimented me on the quality of my pitching, plus I broke 80 for the first time with a 79 needing a birdie at the last to do so, followed by a 78, then a 76, so thanks, thank you very much.
Thanks. last year or was it two years ago well anyway I used the hinge and hold a lot. worked great. but somehow I migrated to something that wasn't great. Its funny I just last night watched Phil's CD on chipping thanks Michael
Nice tip about bringing the handle along side the hip.
I don’t believe the “hold” meant holding the hinge. Instead I believe it meant holding the impact position which is not allowing the club head to pass the hands. Phil explained that the shaft and lead forearm should be in a straight line (the hold) through out the follow through.
Great video, it was much better than Phil's own video.
Fine explanation
Trevino's bump shot is better at release I think. Thanks.
The hinge and hold technique is excellent if you properly understand each term. The “hinge” is obvious and simply involves setting the wrists as Michael has demonstrated. The “hold” does not mean you hold the angle through the shot as that would require some ill advised body contortions. Instead it simply means you “hold” the angle as you START DOWN so the club head gradually releases toward impact as you rotate your body. If you don’t hold the angle as you start down you will release the club head too soon and likely produce a fat or thin shot. Michael demonstrates this method expertly.
Is this for the full swing as well as chip shot
I was a bad chipper now I became a decent one thanks to.....Phil
Should you also keep your weight on your left (lead) leg and tilt slightly forward so that you are looking back at the front of the ball? It is very frustrating to take two or three nice practice strokes and then when you make the actual stroke hit fat behind the ball which goes maybe half the intended distance.
@The Anthony Davis of Neurologists Thanks. Am trying that but yesterday I still messed up chips. I can pitch just fine with my 60 degree LW, and do a fair job with short pitch/long chip shots with a PW, but the thing driving me crazy is the short chip when your ball is 3 to 9 feet off the green in short rough. Just need a calm, delicate stroke. But most of the time I hit fat behind it and it goes nowhere. I also often hit it thin and it runs over the green. Probably because my right wrist just won't stay in extension, takes over and flips. I see pros chipping and they all grip lower down on the shaft, so I have done that. Still hit behind. I saw a video reminding us not to dip the right shoulder as that can cause a fat shot. Did that, still muffed it. Grrrrr. It's like a disease. Plan to set up an appointment with my pro to work on just short chips. Play well.
@johnk.atchley5079 on those short chip shots place the ball way back in your stance, abeam your pinky toe of your trail foot.
Weight 60 percent on the front foot.
Use your shoulders to move your arms, hands and club. Keep your hands passive. The arms , hands and club are just along for the ride as the shoulders turn back and through.
Dave Pelz has a great video on this.
Where is weight distributed at address? Ball position? Open stance or square ? Im a dummy maybe i missed it in the video where its talked about.
Don’t you forward press first to create the hinge then take it back and through?
NO. "HINGE" is Radial Deviation of both Hands.
Forward Shaft Lean in a Forward Press is Flexion of the Lead Hand and Extension of the Trail Hand.
“Hinge and Hold” is a misnomer. You don’t “hold” anything.
Wrong.....do not hold through the ball...release when you hitting.
Correct, hold your impact position to the finish but as you said you must release the hinge to impact, a common misunderstanding of this method.
Wrong! Wow, didn't realize Michael would be so clueless about the hinge and hold. You can't hold the angle you hinged back through contact with the ball. I hate the term "hinge and hold" because it does sound like that is what you are supposed to do..."hold the hinge", but IT'S NOT! The "hold" part isn't referring to holding all the hinge you made, but holding off on FULLY releasing the club... not letting the club go past the hands. To think you don't release what you hinge is just ridiculous and shows you really don't understand chipping. If you truly held the angle you created on the hinge, you would never make ball contact without making some ridiculous move to compensate.
The "hold" part is more like "hold off". Like "hold off" on releasing the club past the hands. DO NOT TRY TO HOLD THE HINGE!
Well now, you most certainly negated everything Michael stated and demonstrated to fuel your Indignation.
Go back and listen while you watch. 😂
Sorry Michael but you're wrong! Phil does not hold the angle on the downswing he actually releases it, it's the release that is held, fact. Truth is if you 'hold' the hinge you would need to dip to get back to the ball otherwise you would swing right over the top of the ball, so yeah it's hinge, release, hold the release(with you upper body turn).
That is definitely not what he means by hinge and hold. If you hinge and hold your hinge you would miss the ball by 5 inches or more. Unless you are making a terrible compensation on you body to reach the ball. (Like leaning forward or bending your knees)
The meaning is to 1) hinge 2) release the hinge in the downswing 3) hold. You hold so that the club face never races past the hands. Hands must always be forward for better control.
And what you are "arguing for" is exactly what Michael stated and demonstrated.
What were you "watching"???
