Went to the practice hole tonight, and tried out the Dave Pelz chipping method off the back ankle and turning your feet to the hole and cannot say how much confidence this gives me over the tricky chip and runs around the green. It's hard to hit a real bad one, and the good ones just seem to cosy up to the hole real nice, running very true.
anyway, went on the putting green and as usual was smashing them miles past, wide, leaving then short and generally making a mess.
so, went right above left to see how it felt - and it felt so much better .More control over pace, holed loads more and the misses were closer. - what's the view on this method? Have I turned myself into some sort of pariah and someone be avoided and wary of?!!
(Can't wait to try both new things I've learnt above on the track tomoz, won't sleep tonight!)
