I always love your vids, but one thing i've noticed about everyone doing these types of "backspin" videos (Dave Pelz included), the demonstrations everyone provides around the green remind me of basic pitch shots that do obviously have spin, but they all roll out a little. I think everyone would like to see some demos that look like Jordan Spieth hitting those really low one-hop-and-stop shots like we all see on TV :)

That involves what Pete was talking about early on: you gotta hit it pretty hard, and totally pure, and on the bottom groove or second lowest groove. Those low grooves make it come out low and spinny. It’s not easy to learn to execute at all.

Great video Pete! :) One small thing: headwind does not affect the spin of the ball, but for the spin it has, the headwind increases both the Magnus Effect (the amount of lift generated through spin) and the drag resulting from spin. Those two thing combined lead to a steeper descending angle at the same spin, making the ball stop quicker overall. Cheers!
@boydeeful
@boydeeful 2 жыл бұрын
Would I be right in saying a tail wind doesnt push the ball either(unless your playing in a hurricane) it just provides less wind resistance? I'm guessing so but I find it funny when most people explain it, it comes across like the ball is being blown further like a sail boat.
@KillrobPlays
@KillrobPlays 2 жыл бұрын
@@boydeeful Haha yeah, that's a good point :) tailwind usually isn't faster than the ball travels, i.e. doesn't actually push the ball. What the tailwind does do however, is to lower the drag and thus the Magnus Effect which provides lift. The spin is the same, but in a strong tailwind it looks like the ball is falling out of the sky, while in a headwind it looks like it is ballooning. Same spin, very different outcomes. :D Cheers

Great video, and the simple explanations of each of the 3 ball positions Peter. Unfortunately piching and chipping are both parts of golf, I'm have trouble with, yet you make it sound so simple. I do have one question that I'd like your input on though. Pitching, as well as chipping should be controlled by only using the arms during the swing and not the body. By using only the arms in the swing, the body will follow, and will in effect, reduce chunking and skulling these shots. True, or ??

I understand the occasional need for high spinning short shots, but for 80% of chipping and pitching, spin is your enemy it adds a variable(s) to the shot that you don't need ie how much spin do you create on the shot and also how the ball reacts when it lands on the green. Discuss :-)

Two helpful things to understand about spinning a golf ball .. The Gear Effect and The Que Ball (billiards). The best way to get the most spin of a golf ball is to optimize the power and acceleration of the clubhead impacting the prefect location of the ball relative to the equator .. and, the angle of that impact in relation to the parallel of the ground. Just like getting optimum spin on a que ball in billiards, it's actually THAT simple and EXACTLY the same thing. It is very simple physics and it is done all the time in the game of billiards (or pool). Once you understand this and given a little bit of practice with it, it becomes very easy to control how much spin you place on your ball. This is true for approach shots just as much as chip shots. BOOM Peter!!! .. that's all that is to it !! ... think of the Que Ball !!!

I see lots of swing video but not an explanation of always why the decisions we make on club choice or where we target can impact the hole. I’d volunteer myself but being in the States it not possible. I wish at times a pro could play a round with me and help with club choice off the tee a lot and how to play chip shots especially.

Good vid, Pete. But wind won't cause a ball to spin more. The wind affects the decent angle. Hit into the wind and the spin makes ball climb higher.... with the wind ball flies longer which lowers landing angle. But anyway...I'm really on here to ask: Do you have any videos showing your workout routine? If not, would love to see a video of you showing us some golf specific exercises and stretches. Thanks. And keep it up. Love your channel!

I'd love to see how the heck to hit a full-swing wedge shot without the ball going a mile in the air. It doesn't matter what degree wedge I hit (aside from my pitching wedge), the ball only seems to go a maximum of about 70 yards, whether it's a 52, 56, or 60 (even less with my 60). On a short, 100 yard par 3 I feel like I should be able to hit my 56 degree without issue, however, for some reason the ball seems to just rocket almost straight into the air off the face and ends up about 20 yards short of the green.
