Who swings their chips/pitches?

[jim_0068]

If you do why?

I find that by swinging a pitch or chip that it simply takes too long for centrifugal force to "build" to really pure swing a chip or pitch.

Now don't get me wrong, i know how to do it and can demonstrate it with ease. I also have excellent tempo and rhythm too which HELPS A LOT.

I find that hitting chips/pitches is the best way to go. So much simpler. Impact fix, carry the arms back with a push elbow for chips and punch elbow for pitches and then just straight that right arm as much as you want for the amount of spin/distance/etc.

I find that is also easier to TEACH to people as well. Too many people who don't have their hands educated can really do a swinging chip or pitch in my opinion. There's still the need to want to "hit at" the ball.

Now am i saying don't learn how to swing a chip/pitch? No. Am i saying learn how to hit them first? Maybe
