Hi I'm Tom Stickney and today I want to talk to you about about pitching getting the ball up in the air when we want to carry a bit more as opposed to having it run on the ground like chipping. So the normal set up for pitching the ball the ball is going to be right here in the middle of our sternum. Our hands and weight are just a touch for the club is going to go with this built right to the left of my belt buckle regardless of the ball position, and then from there if we keep our weight for here is forward and the and the ball in the center. We make our normal motion that's going to give us the 50 percent of the air 50 percent of the ground.

When we start moving the ball forward and backward we're going to reduce the amount of dynamic loft that we have the and tha is going to change out trajectory and that's also change what the ball does. Obviously looking more forwards it is going to carry more if we put the ball back in your stance it's going to run sort of ever 80 percent of your shots are played right center 10 percent here and 10 percent in all the serve Here's the way forward make your normal motion and all this from there you are going to be a great picther of the golf ball.
