[@Loehmer66]

Chris, you are a fantastic instructor. Well done, indeed. Thanks for having done these videos … it always looks easy but the way you explain makes you want to try it out immediately.

[@davidbigley800]

Chris, being a seriously challenged golfer I watch a lot of instruction videos/you tube. I would say that of all, yourself and Danny Maud are the clearest and most easily understood. Closely followed by Steve Johnson and Matt Fryer. Thank you all. I am still s***t but now I know why!

[@richardwilson112]

So true, they are the best.

[@nickcucolo8766]

Check out Padrick paddy's golf tips are great aswell

[@kula5151]

Watch Rick sheils

[@SouthMouth]

I concur. I've watched a lot of videos and I'm thinking this guy is on my top 3 favorite KZbin instructors now lol

[@McV1llaiN]

I can say your on the right path and you are watching the right people to learn from though!! i used to be a challenged golfer and after practicing my behind quarters off and watching the exact people you named im now back shooting in the 70s. Danny, chris, and Padraig, and golfTec guy jon i think it is( asian guy) are all really the best ive found. Plus my name is chris ryan 😂😂 and just like chris im on the taller side at around 6'2 so watching him helps me visually see how a taller individual does certain techniques and shots etc

[@bladedog4110]

I’m 56 only recently started playing. This video really helped me Tks

[@daviddeboer668]

Wow, are you good. You are certainly in the top 1% of quality golf instructors. I just subscribed and look forward to a long relationship.

[@Thebazzman]

I’m a high handicapper who seldom can find the fairway in front of the green, can you show me how/what club when in the 2nd cut off the fairway when chipping or pitching onto the green?

[@nealsokay3243]

Great simple advice as always Chris, especially on the club selection

[@davidtomsett]

There are so many instructional golf vids on KZbin so you can’t follow them all. In my book there’s only you one need to follow - Chris Ryan, thanks so much.

[@cedarhawkfan2791]

Just found your videos, this was the first one I watched, this chipping technique was different from what I have been unsuccessfully using, I used it and it probably saved me at least 6-7 strokes the first time out! You are very good at explaining and demonstrating how to make the shots, keep up the great work!

[@MikeDeSando]

Likewise - I watched it yesterday and I saved 6 to 8 strokes today chipping/pitching 50 yards and in around the green.

[@taylorhanes1717]

This is the best pitching versus chipping video I have came across on you to possibly ever. Well done mate

[@timphilps4071]

Love this!

[@dougchepil1465]

Thanks. Good refresher on technique. Well done as usual!

Perfectly explained. Many thanks.

[@Liquidforce4441]

Fantastic instructional video

[@butthefactis]

Loved this video (and I've watched a few!) but this one is so simple clear & easy to understand, I've banged down on the subscribe button and looking forward to watching more!

[@Dylan-SavedByGrace]

As a new golfer this was the best breakdown between the two I've seen online!

[@staceydodson2161]

Thanks Chris. Very helpful. Great explanation. I struggle with the short game so understanding these points is great! And will help me with my practice & game.👍👍👍

[@brianwilliamson7977]

Great video Chris and great tips

[@LionofJudah1307]

Best explanation if heard in a long time 👍🏌️‍♀️

[@DK-zm2vr]

Thanks for the tip.

[@geordietoonforlife.1155]

A very well demonstrated and explained video on the difference. Excellent too watch, Thank you. 👍

[@MichaelWogamanGolf]

Great video. Great lesson in the differences between the two shots. Now to practice it. Cheers

[@pauldowdymd4404]

Great summary, thank you!!

[@outthere9370]

I'm a amateur. No club membership. No handicap. I just go out & have a bit of fun! Not really knowing wat I'm doin, technically. It's interesting watching people like Chris showing us "plebs" how it's done. Chris likes to promote the use of a number of different clubs when confronted with the "short" play. This is where golf gets interesting. What club to use re. distance. Well, I've rightly or wrongly chosen #8 iron 4 this job. I'm opposite 2 Chris where he'll choose a different club 4 different presentations. My point here is that I control my swing to get the same desired result as opposed to using different clubs. Golf is so complicated with so many variations to choose from! 6 to 1 or 1/2 a dozen of the other! 🤯

[@Tony-zx8ju]

love the easy chip info

[@robertbertke4999]

Great video Chris. You keep your videos short and sweet and to the point.

[@oneworld2642]

I enjoy your golf lesson today ... great technique 😊

[@Airbus320lover]

Chris I always like your videos, very very informative and you keep it simple. This one compared to others you spoke about the different clubs to use, just like Butch Harmon.

[@paulgerton2573]

Excellent lesson!

[@sgcitizen1063]

Great instructions!

[@garycox5547]

Very Helpful

[@paternoborlagdan8586]

Thanks Chris....nice and clear description of chip shot vs. pitching.

[@captcrunch3146]

Excellent instruction presented efficiently..thanks

[@harveypower7303]

Great explanation of the difference between chipping and pitching, thanks Chris👍

[@davidcousins5116]

Hi Chris, great video and very easy to understand drill. Made a difference already. Many thanks. David.

[@markcaldwell3341]

This video was extremely helpful. Very well done.

[@muhammadalam4482]

Clear and precise

[@drewlefevere]

Your cuts are smooth. Balls disappear off the green but doesn’t sound like you miss a best! Nice editing

[@TheLastDansMusic]

Chris, your vids are by far the best instructional videos on KZbin. Thanks so much for your work.

[@zzxxyy22]

Excellent tutorial

[@chryztian7]

Thank you for the tips! great video

[@bradbowden4796]

Thanks Ryan!!

[@sheilasmith5323]

Great explanation 👍 Thanks!

[@shannonscorse1575]

I’ll sure use these tips and hopefully improve my game around the green

[@64hoverair]

Great video Chris. Can' tell you how many times i've re-watched this video when things start going off. Thanks

[@LucaCola-gl2hy]

well done, very good explanation!

[@golfnutnz9274]

Another great lesson thanks Chris, and maybe these shots are the ones most needing practice, because of the judgment and skill needed for distance as well as direction. ⛳️. 🏌️‍♂️

[@grahammckinnell829]

thaks Chris I found your definition of chipping vs pitching really spot on for me and then introducing the change in club selection for pitching based on desired result caused by club absolutely perfect for me to understand.Im going to search your vids for putting grips and style next

[@moshilegrond3553]

Best short game tips ever. This should easily move any amateur to Par 4

[@peterfisher2726]

Excellent instruction and demonstration.

[@huttboynz4422]

Great vids mate, you are very good at explaining things, cheers.

[@takatastore6338]

Very nicely explained

[@gmangman6442]

Love your video, Dude. I’ve been watching pros on the tele (and I seem to have more time for that nowadays) and your video explains how they’re doing it!

[@Mark-qc5ts]

Wow amazing, thank you, helped me so much 👍

[@leewhittaker1532]

Great video chris

[@terrywheeler3536]

Chris ... Your method of delivery is so good it makes it easy to recall when you're playing. Thanks for all the time it must take to complete these videos. Brilliant

[@tathornton3950]

Good work Chris!

[@katherineporter2654]

Great explanation. As a beginner this is really easy to understand. I will put it to the test today.

[@juliuscorbett9535]

Excellent lesson

[@nisartareen4646]

Very good demonstration and great skill of explanation

[@craigmackenzie8954]

Subscribed, this was an amazing video 🙂

[@nickf5556]

Awesome video!!

[@AmryHjSeman]

Thanks for tips Chris! Greetings from malaysia 🇲🇾

[@anzabob6850]

These videos are a tremendous aid for self learning golf, and my shots have improved so much over the last week! I watch a video and go to the practise daily! :)

[@mikewy192]

Brilliant video

[@XB10001]

Even though I knew the difference (and I practice both shots all the time), I still watched the video. You never know what else you will learn. The explanation was excellent, to the point, with good examples. Always nice to listen to a good instructor.

[@dl2821]

Thank you! Pretty much an AHA moment for me - been looking for the formulae re club choice for chips!

[@touristguy87]

Here is a very simple and straightforward definition that really highlights the functional difference...the naming is one thing, the shot characteristics another thing. Pitching I want relatively low ball flight and high turnout relative to carry. It is inherently a lower-energy shot relative to total distance. It is a low-rish shot in terms of the risk of blading the ball and of hitting the ball into an intervening hazard. This is an important distinction. A chip is relatively a high-energy shot with magnified risk in several areas with the key distinction of reducing the risk of hitting the ball into an intervening hazard. This is what clearly distinguishes a chip from a pitch. You are taking on all the risk of using a higher-lofted club than you would normally use for a pitch of the same distance... in conditions that would favor a putch...and hitting the ball too far or too short or the wrong direction or blading the ball all because you want more shot height and less rollout to hit the ball the same distance. Now the advantage of such a shot is that it is much more flexible than a corresponding pitch would be and tends to be more similar to a point-to-point game which is what you tend to see on advanced courses....you can't just spray the ball all over the place and march out, find it and hit it towards the hole without worrying about course hazards. So on hgh-slope courses golf becomes a series of chip shots vs pitches so yes it is very important to have the distinction clear and in my eye he has it completely backwards. Just as important we use so many clubs not because they are necessary but because each lift lends itself to different mixtures of the two types which smooth-out when shit distance is considered. You can hit chips with a 3-iron, you can hit pitches with a 9-iron even a 60w if you want to. The blade is always there. So the distinction between chips and pitches is almost as important as the distinction between draws and fades. Golf is a 3D game, 4D if you consider time. It is no simple matter to decide what club and shot-type to hit any more than to decide what line and speed to attempt a putt unless your skills are so limited that you have limited choices. As golfers learn and improve their skills certain shots tend to stand out in certain situations because golf is always a matter of risk vs reward. It is a simple fact that chips raise the risk to a higher minimal level than pitches do, just as hitting driver vs irons. But often, especially on difficult courses or even difficult lies on easy courses, the reverse is true because there are too many obstacles in the way for a pitch, they become much more risky than a chip. The trick is to properly ascertain the risk of disaster and the risk of success and factor in the pros and cons of a bad pitch vs a good chip and make a choice, pick a club, a stance and a target for both the carry and rollout, take the shot and live with the outcome. Golf is an exceptionally good mental and physical test that rewards good judgement and self-control. Unlike many sports which reward boorish behavior. Even celebrate it.

[@alvinholtonii431]

Very good video!!!

[@robrandall1540]

This is a great video. Very succinct.

[@clientbuilding8737]

Great explanation. Thank you. Ric

[@noelelenes9090]

Love it!

[@sandyttwong1976]

Best instructions 👍🏻

[@davidzenkert8759]

Love your videos mate, but this one is one of your best! :D Keep 'em coming

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks David appreciate it and glad you found it helpful

[@dm299]

Your videos offer the best instruction I’ve found on KZbin. Very easy to grasp for a beginner like myself. Question, do you have a video going into the size of a chip swing? A larger (or smaller) backswing and follow through with a given club clearly change the distance the ball travels. Any advise or directing me to another of your videos would be appreciated.

[@CubaJam]

Liked the video very much. Nothing is like a rule, it's always our own decision and you showed us the possibilities and what we could do and how to do it.

[@gillesmoulart6784]

Hello Chris ! Very nice video ! Do you have another one digging more into the variety of pitch shot ?

[@henkhamers1184]

Thnx Chris excellent explanation havent played for eight years and your mini course was helping me getting it back now practice practice and practice

[@FredrikLindblomSGG]

Very good info here pro👍👊

[@scottpodres7903]

Hello Chris, Thanks for all of your effort and instruction. Watch your videos regularly. With regards to chipping and pitching, what are your thoughts on the rule of 12 as a guide for working around the green?

[@stephenwarr2864]

Very very good coach 👍🏌️‍♂️

[@cholosinpolosgolf1856]

Thank you so much. This video alone helped me shave 10 strokes in less than a week. I played a 9 hole course on Monday and again on Saturday and I shaved 10 strokes.

[@dericrighter7629]

Excellent explanation of the differences in technique between chip and pitch.

[@mufc778]

Great video

[@ralphperez5342]

Great detail. Thank you

[@ChrisRyanGolf]

Thanks 👍

[@JSW2610]

Never really understood the difference, had some coaching on the chip shot and it works but I've applied it to all situations, eg chipping over a bunker , I can get it over the sand but invariably it runs too far , I can now adapt the pitch shot instead. Really good point about understanding what suits the individual , need to improve this area as it's where i lose most shots, I'm either too shy or too bold with my chipping, glad i've now got an alternative to look at, especially from a bit more distance from the pin. Excellent advice as always , in comparrison to some other coaching on You Tube you break it down much better. Keep up the great work. Thanks
