Tried this at the weekend and lost 6 shots off my normal game, How I nomally 8 iron bump and run as when I tried to pitch in the past I placed the ball in the middle of my stance and thined it, destroying confidence in using the club. Thanks for the tips Mark, have you ever thought of creating a dedicated site?
Mark, great video. I enjoy the idea you have given about ensuring that the end of the shaft stays forward by imagining that there is a laser on the end and you shouldn't allow it to touch you. Great idea.
Can't wait for the next one.... Keep up the good work.
What's your take on having a more open stance for pitching/chipping? I've always had a very open pitching stance because it feels smoother and more natural to me.
I've been taking lessons that have had me flipping it to use the bounce so this has got me back to basics.
One question I'd love you to consider for a future video is how many wedges and which lofts/bounces to put in the bag. I've got a 46 degree PW and 3 more wedges and end up confused over which one to use.
If you could touch upon this in a future video that would be great. Thanks again for all the videos!
@SwordofDobar I think you should use a 60 degree lob for pitches as you want them to land softly and not roll over the green. Also, use a high bounce club to hit it from thick rough lie. Hope that helps :D
Great video again mark, one question, how hard do you grip your club for this kind of shot? Should I grip it the same way as my normal swing and release it through impact or should I grip it harder for more control and keep my hands in front of the club the whole time?
Excellent video.

I seem to hit a lot of my wedges fat or thin . Would that be because i'm coming too much from the inside ? Like ur vids .

Going to try this on the course on Sat and hope to drop a few shots as I don't do well on this 3/4 pitch shot and it costs me strokes.
