Nothing feels better than hitting a wedge shot that hops once, grabs, and stops next to the flag. That kind of control can turn tough par saves into tap-ins. But for most golfers, spin feels random or impossible—especially on pitch shots from 30 to 60 yards. The ball hits and rolls out way past the…
The 50-yard pitch shot is one of the most awkward in golf. It’s too far for a chip and too short for a full swing. Most golfers default to their favorite wedge without much thought. But choosing the right club for the situation can be the difference between a tap-in par and scrambling to save…
From 20 to 60 yards out, you’re not trying to bomb the ball—you’re trying to finesse it. These pitch shots are about precision, not power. Yet most golfers hit them with guesswork, not a plan. That leads to chunked shots, bladed wedges, and too many missed up-and-down opportunities. If you want to get the ball…

That leads to inconsistent distance control and blown opportunities to get up-and-down. If you want to shoot lower scores, you need…

That indecision usually leads to poor contact or picking the wrong shot altogether. And when you guess instead of assess,…
One of the most frustrating positions in golf is standing 30 yards from the green with no confidence in your ability to get the ball close. It’s not quite a full swing, yet it’s not a short chip either. That in-between distance exposes flaws in a golfer’s technique and decision-making. If you blade it, the…
Stop Guessing Around the Green You’re standing just off the green with a scoring opportunity in front of you. You ask yourself the familiar question: “Should I putt this, chip it, or pitch it?” It’s a question every golfer faces multiple times a round, but most answer it with uncertainty.
