Hey Everybody!
I am pretty new to golf. I have been playing since May and haven't had more than one day go by without practicing in my yard. With that said I have really been focusing on my short game. I am starting to feel very confident with my chipping and have started focusing on the flop shot.
Honestly the only reason I have been made aware of the flop shot is because I use it a lot in the Tiger Woods video games for the PS3. I have messed around with it in the front yard and have been hitting it correctly about 25% of the time. I am not sure how practical of a shot it is but when I hit it correctly, I get excited.
I just wanted to know how often the average golfer uses this technique. As of right now it is a risky shot as 75% of the time I blade it and it goes 40 yards plus in the wrong direction. I am not even comfortable trying it out near the practice putting grees as I might wound a child, a car or the club house window.
I have been told it's usually hit out of the trap but in some situations I think it would be beneficial to hit instead of a normal chip shot as I tend to get too much roll on the ball and just have it roll off the green.
How comfortable are you with this shot and do you use it often? Thanks for your help.
