Having finally got rid of chipping yips after 3 years of terror/mental anguish and I have a question for the forum about the right wrist role.
TGM "ideal" action actually caused me the yips to a certain extent as in my goal to stop flipping (which I am not sure I ever did originally) it robbed me of all height with my short pitch and chip shots.
I actually UNDERSTAND that tour players release their right wrist, as Brian showed in the short game friends video.
MY QUESTION IS
If we hit a "standard TGM, flat left wrist, bent right wrist, compressed,hot/low/spinning shot" as 10 yards shot number 1 and called it one end of the matrix (?most shaft lean?)
WOULD
Allowing the right wrist to straighten MORE through the ball, but still trying to hit it 10 yards, result in a higher, softer(less spinning) shot each time swinging a little longer to compensate for the higher trajectory (?less shaft lean?)
MEANING
That there is a TGM end of the matrix(?leading edge pitch/chip), with the lowest trajectory leading to the opposite end (true swinging/mid sole/back of mid sole)) which produces high lob shots with barely any spin?
All of these shots above hit from the same set up and stance
Please ignore if you have no idea what I am talking about, it;s taking a lot of time to get my head around true TGM not being the be all and end all.
Is this "kinda" like Brian's Short game Matrix concept?
