The point I was trying to make is that if you have good technique you can chip off of concrete - I can't because my technique is somewhat lacking. If you chip better with the ball sitting up on grass that could indicate that you tend to "scoop" the ball instead of hit down and letting the club face hit the ball first. If your technique is "scooping", bad things will tend to happen with tight lies. This is not a criticism of anyone's game - just an observation based on my own shortcomings.

But please don't be upset. I'm just having fun. And it's a reflection on my short game...not yours. [emoji4] (Although I'll bet I'm not the only one who feels that way about chipping off a tight lie...heheh.)
