Brendon I am a golf nerd like you.

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Thanks Ron, really appreciate you supporting the channel!

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Ron, watch this kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmXLZYCQaNOibac

[@donkoo7687]

Thanks for this Brandon. The videos with Monte are about as informative as they come.

[@HighSpinSwingSpeed]

Love Monte, such a good guy.

[@hawkey100]

Keeping the right arm moving is a great tip and works great. My pitching and chipping have gotten significantly better.

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Great!

[@webmastermail8]

I would be so pissed if I were a top instructor and all the time I was talking you were walking off fiddling with the camera or looking around not listening, think I would just pack up and walk off.

[@Addy-1636]

Arun Smyth Awful isnt it

[@butchkelso7603]

I want to thank both of you gentlemen for producing such a fine video on the Short Game. I’ve spent the past year rebuilding my full swing with an emphasis on “wide to narrow to wide.“ As a result, my distance/partial wedge shots have suffered tremendously. Watching your video this morning before I went to the practice range, provided a real Eureka experience! By “intentionally” focusing on wide to wide, moving my entire trail arm forward, and swinging the club with intuitive feel as if lobbying a ball, provided a real breakthrough for me today. Keep up the excellent work. You two work very well together. Good rapport.

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

THANKS Butch!

[@vinceschiavo5385]

Yes, Brendan and Monte are a lot like Hope & Crosby.

[@bl6369]

great Video! I will admit you have had some huge divots on pitches and chips in the past! :)

[@bobperry5929]

Awesome explanation of proper pitching method! Used it today and had 4 up and downs from 10-15 yds off green. Nowineedto workon approaches but nice to know I can recover more easily!

[@michaelsliwinski8044]

I cant figure out how anyone could rate this "thumbs down". Excellent lesson. Thanks so much once again.

[@plentyofouts]

Make you’re one handed tossing action with the right hand. Club in hand. Stop at the end of your backswing and then put your left hand on the club. Notice how much of a reach it is with the left arm because of the width of the right arm.

[@Dreama40]

Only thing I would add to this lesson is to pivot on your lead leg and keep the weight there from start to finish.

[@Mpokerwpt]

Used this technique in my latest round and shot my lowest score ever. You and Monte create great videos. Thanks!

[@golfninja6492]

Keep the chest rotating with the 'arms'- plural moving, & the left shoulder has to keep moving all the way through the shot too. Ball middle sternum to opposite left pec. Weight around 55L - 45R. No big shaft lean at address.

[@Dreama40]

Agreed....

[@Trentrommanngolf]

I like this format! Great video!

[@Charlyky]

Isn't wide to wide simply no wrist set and a body motion....Basically arm movement independent of the body move back and through SEQUENCING in Chipping, Pitching and Full Swing is WRONG............CLUB ARM SHOULDER CHEST TRIANGLE back and through. WIDE To WIDE with EVEN TEMPO is all about control.

[@Dreama40]

Right shoulder over left foot is a great thought to ensure you rotate your upper body through the shot. This guy(Monty) knows what he's talking about, must admit i prejudged him at first, i was wrong.

[@markmatthews6839]

I figured out the swing thought I need: "both arms go the same speed from the top". We chunk and blade it when the right arm and right hand goes faster than the left. "both the same speed." is the swing thought. They left arm and left hand leads- the right arm and hand go the same speed, never faster- that causes the flip. Use that swing thought: both arms, same speed."

[@mrpriceisright]

Monte's underhand toss motion has radically improved my feel + ability to hit soft lobs - BUT, I suggest you practice/master the shallow/wide/unwristy part first ( look up the Steve Stricker pitching videos, they're first rate), I think of it as U shaped swing. Then add the underhand toss thoughts, soft hands are important. My problem is usually getting too quick. Brendon's swings at 13:44 are great. Good work guys.

[@wreckim]

The only thing more theoretically confusing and convoluted than pitching in golf is love IMO. There are virtually as many ways to do it, as there are instructors...and this lesson is a good one if you choose this method. 2c.

[@1LuckyFin]

Great video again guys, and this one really did it for me... I still have little problems when im in deeper rough, and trying to chip between 20 to 70 yards... im going too deep with this technique and it takes all the power of or i blade it.. and also having little bit of problems when the ball is in down hill.. any tips :D! thanks any way from Finland (Y)

[@barrettwiley3766]

I played the best golf of my life with wide and wide as my only swing thoughts. ..... I immediately know when I don't work right shoulder out. I am trying to incorporate right shoulder out consistently during the full swing. That's my fight.

[@AtEboli]

Monte is so empathetic. No matter what you say to him, his response is "that's totally understandable", or "you're completely right". He would make a good therapist.

[@jasonsechrist1]

Most people think the arm is the forearm, but the arm is the bone between your shoulder and the elbow. If that part keeps moving then your good, but if it's just the forearm then your dead.

[@sorryaboutthatchief9094]

It's interesting that keeping the arc as wide as possible is as effective for wedges as it is for fairway woods. When I feel like I'm sweeping these clubs is when I'm playing better and scoring better. When I get steep, I weep.

[@ElvisPriscillaPresley]

Excellent stuff.

[@jasonsechrist1]

A good way to do this is to take the club back and right before the transition, let the club head fall level with your arms then hit the shot. Essentially all you are trying to do is take most of the lag out. A lot of mid to low handicap golfers are really good at this because they are flippy on full shots anyways, with no forward shaft lean. The shaft lean when too far forward will kill a pitch if you are not just bang on perfect, but with the bounce it just glides to the ball.

[@grahamjones7371]

Ah the mad hammer thrower finally realizes that of all departments in golf the right side is more important in the short game than any other.Split hands and right arm only chipping/pitching are the best drills.

[@kentbimson587]

I took a lesson with Monte a month ago, Brandon, and have been working his advice into my general swing. We did not work on pitching. I have been using this technique at the range after watching your video. SO much better. Smoother, more consistent, solid contact. Thanks to you and to Monte.

[@treycaldwell4118]

"2 chip ins a day keeps the bogeys away" when you're practicing don't leave the practice area until you chipped in twice and you'll be a great chipper you can thank me later

[@ilovedavedunlop]

best video you've done in months! videos like this is what made the channel so great. please focus on more things like this than your 'swing analyses' which are dreadful

[@ericj1972]

I'm in the same situation. I've had a hard time with too much spin on my chip shots and it's hard to time that when I'm in tournaments. I have the same problem in my full swing as well and working on that too. Thank you for the great information guys!

[@Joe-qf9nv]

Awesome content and information, you are lucky to have Monty teaching you in person! A pool of knowledge :) keep up the good work Brendon!

[@locsmiths]

I'm not sure if Monte didn't explain it well enough, but he did demonstrate as well.

[@annslattery9999]

Txs Monte and Brendon. Happy to hear your discussion. Good instruction for me to practice.

[@Ricey155]

I love the reality of this advice. I've done it for 30years it creaps back in 👏 #SoReal

[@TheRetrospective]

Monte's moves are so smooth...like butter...

[@grahamjones7371]

I made these comments before the part in the video where Monty tells you tom do it!

[@allshownogolf]

Struggling with this exact situation. Thanks for sharing!

[@tonytanti8138]

Montes the best exaggerator

[@truhill0484]

Go Monte!

[@sagsupply2009]

Hi Monte. Can I still intend to turn my right wrist down and around

[@eddierog23]

Brendon, in a shit lie, sitting down, still a good idea shallow!

[@dseveno8254]

Very helpful to us life-long chunkers of the ball.

[@grahamjones7371]

Oh yes and the one area that armpit connection is a good drill

[@geowhyrock]

more Monty talks please. This is gold.

[@floridasaltlife]

Another great video of this technique.

[@brockdavidson7039]

Great video Brendon. Thanks Monte.

[@frankcastle29]

I missed/love the bullet points....

[@yoursbenfang]

Pure gold, thanks!

[@WorrySomeMore]

Great video, Brendon! Do you weaken the grip with these pitches or do you use your regular grip?

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

+Golf Junkie I use my regular grip.

[@8chris24]

Finally Monte's back

[@leskenne]

Monte is everybody's best mate

[@barrettwiley3766]

Damm it Monte and Brenden, the right shoulder is the key again. I had been working on pitching the past three days with feeling of keeping my right shoulder moving. Man, it works. I started using the feels from D4D and worked my way up...left arm out/off chest...worked but not consistent...lead with right elbow...worked not consistent...right shoulder out...works consistently.

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Yes, it is simple to do it just takes practice to trust it! Full swing wise try steep shoulders in backswing flat shoulders (i.e. right shoulder out) in downswing. Keep it moving!

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Wide to wider is a revelation for me.

[@Griot19]

After practicing this technique for a while, I've gotten pretty good at making solid contact. I'm struggling with distance control. Any advice?

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Scatter ball all around the chipping green and hit them. Never hit the same distance twice in a row. Play a lot of HORSE.

[@76MUTiger]

From one spot, scatter targets all around, different distances and random distance order. I take range balls and set them together in a line of 2 or 3 as targets. Then I practice chipping/pitching to them. I must land within a yard before I move to the next target. Over time, I get better and can move through the set of targets with fewer and fewer attempts.

[@seth1455]

Thanks Brandon

[@roxybailey6302]

This is the nuts!

[@wadeschwartz4677]

Would a good swing thought be lead with the shoulder.

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Yes, that can be a good though esp if stalling the should er and flipping with your hands is your fault, try the drill in the description as well.

[@jobrown634]

here's 21050

[@soxnation144]

Brendon, with this technique where are you putting your weight? Do you transfer the weight to the right during the swing?

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

no conscious weight transfer

[@soxnation144]

What about at setup? Slightly forward?

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

65 35 left

[@jstinnett23]

What club you guys prefer for most of these shots? 60 degree?

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Yes, we are both using 60 degree here.

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

[@johnblackwell8881]

TOO LONG A COMMENTARY FOR SUCH AN EASY FIX!

[@barrettwiley3766]

I saw the wide to wider concept in Taking it to the Course of the 2nd attempt at your approach on the 2nd hole after you blocked it to the right. He told you shallow the club and you where shallower than normal but he moved your hands "lower and wider". Take a look at that adjustment. I try to visualize that position when I swing.

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

Barrett Watch this kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmXLZYCQaNOibac

[@choco5606]

The pitching is NOT a tossing motion I am sick and tired of these lies ! It is IMPOSSIBLE to be consistent like this !

[@arjanpetersen]

Cho co well then don't watch. The best pitchers in the the world feel it like that. So if you don't feel it like that ... be happy

[@choco5606]

Arjan Then you are struggling too

[@arjanpetersen]

Im not struggling though. But I guess you have tour experience to invalidate the theory of monte?

[@Dreama40]

These tips will have people skulling and fatting more pitch shots than ever....

[@arjanpetersen]

Dreama40 i urge you to take proper lessons, and get an understanding of how you should pitch and chip. You clearly lack a basic understanding.
