Welcome to The Sand Trap!

Inspired by a recent thread here, it made me think I do a chip swing on shots 80 yards and in. I set up like I would for a normal chip and go (mainly thinking about a half swing). I started practicing with longer clubs and have gone up to a 6 iron with decent results. It eliminates fat shots completely. It produces a low shot and one club less. Has anyone tried this approach? I do great when the ball is teed up. But, have always struggled on the ground. Cheers, SG

So does the ghost of 63 finally get destroyed and a 62 gets shot? Today could be the day. Hell maybe even a 61. Guys tearing apart Birkdale so far.

thanks for a better understanding.   I was confused by their article.

People are scoring this morning  It seems like people are making moves, but none of it will matter if the conditions are the same when the leaders tee off.  

I signed the petition but do not think it will be successful.  Just the other day I heard one of the officials rave about that particular rule change on Golf Channel.
