Re: how to chip

another good tip i have ehard to help with chipping is that you always want to land on the green anywhere close to 3 feet to the edge of the green so you can get it rolling as soon as posible.

now you want to walk from your ball to the 3' zone and then from that 3' zone to the hole. you agre getting a ratio of paces from ball to zone and zone to hole.

here is what you do with that ratio. if the ratio is 1/1 then use your pw, it it is 1/2 use your 9i, 1/3 8i, 1/4 7i, 1/5 6i.

that means if you walk 2 paces to the zone, then 10 paces to the hole, that would mean you would need more roll and the ratio being 1/5 you would use your 6i.

or 4 paces to zone 8 paces to hole you would want your 9i because that is 1/2 ratio.

enough examples i think you get it. that works great for me.
