005: Low Spinners vs. Using the Bounce — What's the Better Short Game Move?
Loading
/
In this episode, the guys break down one of the most mesmerizing shots in golf — the low spinner — and contrast it with the more forgiving, bounce-friendly approach to chipping and pitching. Is that sexy one-hop-and-stop shot worth chasing, or should you lean into bounce for better consistency and margin for error? The guys dig into the role of friction, strike location, and swing plane, and discuss why understanding your options is key. Whether you’re trying to master every short game shot or just stop chunking chips, this episode blends technical insight with real-world coaching wisdom.
