Short pitching and chipping 10-3-C

When Yoda and Luke first gave me this shot, they had me do it over a bunker with a thin tight lie.

Freeze your right wrist and put extensor action and #1 pressure point in place at address and keep it there.If you lose pressure you lose the shot.
Focus is on right forearm action.
Keep the ball between your wrist and your elbow.

This shot is also good from long grass close to the green.
Your right forearm action is up the plane going through your waist and straight down the same steep line.

Longer shots ...use longer club.

Doug,

Could you please expand on this?

Keep the ball between your wrist and your elbow.

I found this interesting. How does this work?

Thanks!
