Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player Drop Massive Amounts of CHIPPING Wisdom

In This Chipping Lesson Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus drop decades of Golf wisdom in a few minutes. These two Legends of the game have Chipping boiled down to one simple philosophy: Get the ball rolling towards the hole, so it has a chance to go in.

Gary Player: from the best in the world to the worst in the world if there was one shot that was not as quite as good as the rest of the game because it doesn’t allow it to happen is chipping take the best chipper in the world if you took over a year chipping say from 10 yards off to the edge of the green probably the average distance would be that well he’s still got to hold that putt whereas if you got long putts lag putts are 40 foot you could say the average is going to be that big difference so chipping is so exact because you might pitch into a divot you might pitch into the grain you might pitch with the grain you might pitch across grain you might just be a little unlucky with the way the ball bounces and has a great effect of being close to the hole but there’s a rule keep it low for the dough hit it high and you’re going to cry or you’re going to die so the thing is that the average weekend golfer he’s right on the edge of the green I see him using a sandwich really got no chance let’s see you chip one got a six iron here you’ve got a six iron a six iron and I always try and pitch the ball just on the edge of the green here okay so now here I got a six iron I’m going to try and pitch the ball right here it’s much easier to pitch the ball here than it is to pitch it on a spot over there unless you practice all day so okay here we got the six on watch this I’m going to pitch it just on the edge of the green here now look at that there’s affection for you look at this tell me where it goes now you know that’s not trick photography right they saw that on a camera
