A friend of mine shared with me this video, which has helped me to shave some strokes of my game. Chipping with a 9 iron vs. a wedge and pitching with a highly lofted wedge have made a difference. The swing is similar, not to much hand, arm or upper body movement but gyrating your legs and keeping the left wrist still. The short game, including putting is the major contributor to a high or a low handicap. I now practice chipping, pitching and putting more than driver or mid iron shots. I hope that the technique depicted in the video help you too
G.McKenna Golf Haiku
Gigantic driver Fuels my testosterone dreams Three-hundred yard drive.
Gotta get a grip On this game that has gripped me Before it gives me the grippe.
My ball is engulfed By autumn’s crimson bounty Perils of fall golf.
Chipmunk takes cover Knows the stone wall may save him From my wicked slice.
Smashed it off the tee. But why did my second shot Only go ten yards?
Three-foot downhill putt Just keeps going and going. Now six feet back up.
Winter rules beckon Even in the August heat. Don’t heed that siren’s call.
Splashdown in the pond A chorus of croaks erupts Laughter of the frogs.
Snack bar girl so cute Even though I’m not hungry Gimme another hotdog.
Kerplunk. Rattle. Plop. Sweet euphony on the green. Sunk another putt.
