I realize this thread is a few months old, but I was reading it and wondering if VJ, you could explain a bit more the "hitting pitch" and how the motion differs from the hitting chip. I feel like I have the hitting chip down pretty well but the pitch is still a bit of a mystery. Thanks for all the helpful info.

Accumulators and Stage two basically.

That is the difference between the hitting chip and the hitting pitch. During the chip and pitch you will use #1 as the engine of the stroke. For the pitch add some #2 and swing the forearms parallel to the ground (stage two) and you will have the hitting pitch. The hitting motion already has an angled hinge built into it so you should be in business.

In summary the difference in the two is the # of accumulators being used and the distance you swing your arms.

VJ, thanks for the helpful explanation and clarification. Much appreciated.

Magic of the Right Forearm
 

Your thoughts on developing a great short game? Use the right Forearm.

Hit-Swing-use your hinges, experiment with different power accumulators, one barrell-two barrell-three barrell.....................Utilize ball position as it relates to low point to control trajectory........

The Videos are coming.......

VJ....we have discussed the shots a lot, but I have not seen any methods to practise them.

What are the best drills and games to hone a good short game?

A simple truth not often considered. Thanks, VJ!

VJ and Yoda, your thoughts please. I agree with trajectory as well which is why I use several clubs for chipping. You have a different trajectory with each and every club. No?

What happened to those videos?
