Titleist Tips | Golf Pitch Shot: Medium Air Time, Medium Ground Time

From Skip Guss On September 22, 2020
In this video Titleist Staff Member Skip Guss, owner of GolfRite in Southborough, Massachusetts, explains that there's much more to the short game than executing a given shot. In Skip's approach, execution... is just one step among five in a greater process that is guided by five key words:
  • Analyze
  • Plan
  • Commit
  • Execute
  • Review

Most amateurs jump right to the execution phase when they play a short wedge shot, but dedicating yourself to all five disciplines is the key to real improvement.

In Part Two of his three-part series, Skip demonstrates the pitch shot, a wedge shot that flies a medium distance and rolls about an equivalent distance the rest of the way to the hole. Use Skip's keys to visualize the trajectory of this stock short game shot and see how imagining a Margarita on the face of your wedge will help you to pitch the ball close every time.
