Re: How-To "Backspin on chips"

Excellent. Iīll be doing the same.

Q: I would have thought it would be easier to compress with a, say, 7-iron, instead of a 60 degree wedge - but when I watch the pros, the announcer always says they are using a 60 or 56 or some wedge or another.

It "looks" like they donīt have any extreme wrist cock through the stroke, but maybe thatīs just TV for you.

I chip with a p-wedge for around 10 meters, 7 iron over 20 meters, try to avoid using 60-degree for chipping. Maybe all this will change if I keep wrist cock? Hopefully firmer stroke will yield shorter, controlled shot......
