Pelz was more of a consultant to Phil. Phil had the best short game in the world, long before that clown Pelz ever showed up.

Because he was a lousy ball striker!!!!!!!!!!! Thank God He did. Never got over Pelz standing 6 ft from him allowing him to hit a ball over his head with his 6 ft 4 frame. Surely a clown act.
The search is always for the proper swing mechanics, never stop searching....

This is true in every sport. The fact that you can do it does not mean that you can teach it.

BTW, SHIBUMI, I really appreciate your tips and topics.

Chipping was the hardest shot for me to learn playing on FL courses. Up north I was used to having a cushion of grass under the ball so I could hit down on it without worrying about chunking it everytime. Here, with so little cushion you have to sweep the ball more.
My best chips are when I keep my left arm straight and, most importantly, do not break my wrists.
Everyone is different.
My wrists are not as strong as most others. I have to rely on body turn and arms. Different strokes for different folks.
