I'm Adicted to Chipping Now

[User 105]

Damn you Mister Mickelson.

I watched his secrets of the short game DVD's a week or so ago and have been practicing his 'hinge and hold' method.

In the past I'd have maybe spend 10 mins a week on the chipping and putting green. Now you can't get me off.

I was up there last night and spent about an hour and a half practicing all sorts of chip shots that I've just never been able to hit, or at least not consistently.

Really is worth a watch and such an easy technique to learn with a little practice.

Me too, bought his dvd, practiced a lot & dropped 5 shots this season.

I'll have to get hold of that. Has it got any footage of him lobbing it backwards over his head facing away from the green, there's some clips on youtube of him doing this. Actually seen someone do it once but his problem was he was actually facing the green and not trying to do it, hilarious.

Turn three shots into two and your handicap will tumble.

I've been wanting to try that but haven't had the chance yet.

And the 2 ball bunker trick shot

Is that the one where you tread on a rake???

I've always been addicted to chipping, that's why I miss so many greens

It was funny last night. It was like being a kid again.

I was on the green chipping away, completely lost track of time and it was getting dark. The other half rang.

'It's dinner time, you need to come home'

'I don't want to, can't I stay out a bit longer'

I won't repeat what she said, but I'm sure my mum never used words like that.



Can't wait until works finished today. Going to the range, hit some balls and wait until the putting green clears a bit.

^ if youre not careful you'll get sent to bed without any puddng

I was on the green chipping away

Bloody hell Westy, I hope nobody saw you!!!

If you did that on our greens they'd be stringing you up!

I saw Mickelson chip from the green the other day.

Must be ok to do

I did put all my divots back

I've not seen the DVD but is everything demonstrated from a left handed perspective. I think I'd find that off putting

 

[Gubog]

you can get it on itunes now for 3 or 4 pounds & take it with you if you have a touch or iphone, I thought that homer but honestly him being left handed makes no difference at all, my daughter watched it learnt it & it is quiet a simple system & its worked wonders for her in the year ive had it.

Or it might be the breakthrough you're looking for!!

 

[haplesshacker]

I've got his iPhone app thing. But boy, you have to practice it before relying on it on the course. I too thought the 'lefty' thng would put me off (as a right handed player) but not at all.
