What club do you use for the "chip n run" shot?


Hit em good

Recommended Posts

I'm talking about chip shots within 5 yards of the green, where you are expecting some run out.

 

I've used the 47* pw for a few months, with some success. On a level green, it's about a 1:2 carry to roll ratio.

 

What club do you use for this shot?

Driver: Ping G25

4w & 7w: Ping G25

23° Hybrid: Ping G25

5i - pw: Mizuno MP64

54° & 58°: Cleveland RTX 4 raw

Putter: The Wilson 8802 (vintage model)

Ball:  Titleist Pro V1x
Bag: Original Jones Golf Bag (green)

PW as well when in the rough.
If I took the time to practice my short game, I guess maybe a 7I would be a better choice, to get the extra run out.
If I really want it to run most of the way and the ball is on the apron or fairway, I'll putt from 5yds off the green. Actually whenever I can use the putter I will.

Depends on how far away the pin is. Never more than a 9 iron, though. The ground is your friend!

I choke way down on a 7 iron and use a putter stroke - it's definately a "go to" shot...

Depends on lie. SW if not good. Usually PW (or putter) with great lie, short grass between me and the pin.

However the last week I`ve been trying my 4 hybrid when just off the green. Putting stroke that comes out a bit hotter- great results so far without worries about he leading edge of PW or SW just snagging the grass.

It depends I normally use a GW or 8iron. But then again I have used a hybrid or FW and played it like a putt.

One theory- One club for all shots etc.Me? I, like other OPs, like 7 iron-SW. Depends on shot called for and what the lay of the land is. I was taught- get the ball on the green running as soon as possible. Works for me. Use the club that will do that the best. 3 wood could be the ticket on some shots.

Took a couple of chipping lessons this year, and it was a real eye opener. I always assumed I had a poor technique but learned that my technique was fine, and that it was my choice of shot that was poor. He taught me to pick the flattest spot between me and the hole as my landing area, and to then pick the club to get that job done, be it anything from a 7i to a lob wedge. It was a hugely valuable lesson, and resulted in one or two shots saved per round.

I usually use my 54* wedge and play it off my back foot. If the pin is way over the over side of the green though, I usally opt for an 8 iron.

Anything from a 7 to lw, if I want it to run a long way I grip down on my 7 and use my putting stroke.
