Bunker Technique with Tiger Woods & Jason Day

October 21, 2019

Watch the TaylorMade Team athletes Tiger Woods and Jason Day explain how they hit bunker shots, and their differing philosophies to execute a plan to get out of the sand using the MG Wedge and MG HiToe Wedges. The pros go into detail about what techniques they use in their game and how they adapt depending on course conditions.

TaylorMade’s HI-TOE wedge lineup has been expanded to include a full range of wedge lofts from 50° to 64°. Featuring full-face scoring lines in the 56° to 64° and standard scoring lines in the 50° to 54°, each HI-TOE wedge also has an expanded toe area to deliver high-spin performance whether you’re taking full swings on your approach or playing finesse shots around the green.

The HI-TOE wedge offers three different sole grinds to match your style of play:

Standard Sole (50°, 52°, 54°)
The all-purpose grind that is perfect for full approach shots into the green. This sole is well suited for both normal and soft turf conditions. All of these lofts feature standard scoring lines.

4-Way Sole (56°, 58°, 60°)
New 4-way cambered sole with a mid-bounce design of 10°. The leading edge has less belly with a more blunt contour. This new sole has an increased trailing edge and heel relief—great for players with average or steep swings from normal turf and/or softer sand.

ATV Grind (58°, 60°, 64°)
Channel-cut ATV mid-sole with a bounce of 12°. The “V” shaped leading edge moves through the turf and sand more seamlessly for better contact.

HOW TO HIT THE CHIP AND RUN

September 17, 2019

If your short game is really inconsistent, learning how to hit the chip and run can help you get the ball on the green and moving towards the hole.

The chip and run is often thought of as a 6 or 7 iron shot always and only to medium and long pins, but in this video I show you how you can the chip and run to great effect with everything from a lob wedge to a 3 wood.

Most amateur golfers try to hit high flop shots that require more skill and precision, while hitting a simple chip and run helps to minimize the elements and get the ball on the green.

Maybe you’re consistently missing your landing zone, the ball’s rolling out too much, not enough. Well I’m here to tell you today that you may be missing out on the shot that’s going to help you improve the most, and that’s the chip and run.

Pitch Shot Distance Control

September 1, 2019

Playing accurate pitch shots to the distance you want can be challenging for a lot of players. A player will do the correct preparation prior to playing the shot in that they laser an exact yardage, check their lie, wind and elevation change, but then guess at how long to swing the club to produce the required distance. Then they wonder why they are unable to pitch the ball close to hole on a regular basis. There is a better way.

I have been teaching my players a pitching distance drill that’s made a huge difference to their ability to regularly get the ball close to the hole with a pitch shot. It is a system that I copied from Dave Pelz, it is simple to understand and learn, as well as implement on the golf course.

The feedback from my players after learning the distance drill is that this transforms their ability to pitch the ball close to the hole. As they set up to a shot there is no guesswork as to how long the swing should be or which club they should use. All the guessing is taken away and you are free to execute quality pitch shots. It will do the same for you also.
