The pitch shot like that looks a relatively simple technique to produce but actually probably one of the most fundamentally important shots to bring in your golf score down. Cause the less you'll very efficient hitting the ball on to the green with a 5 iron and hitting the ball on to the green from a long long way away you going to end up with a lot of pitch shots in a round of golf. Now a pitch shot is quite a broad terminology we would say anything that's not a full swing and not definitely wasn't a full swing.

Right the way back down to maybe a 10 yard pitch over a bunker could be classed as a pitch shot. So that might be from a 100 yards down to 10 yards could be a pitch. In fact if I have to get the ball up in the air when I only go 2 yards that might even be called a pitch.
