( RELEASE 1 ☔️ ) Chip & run in the sleet! Last week, we were playing in nearly 20-degree weather, but this week is a different story. Despite the change, I’m using my stock #release1 chip and run technique with a 56-degree wedge to hit it close. The lie was tight and not much grass around this time of year, so I added a little hinge in the backswing to help me ensure ball first contact. .

VERSATILITY OF RELEASE-1 (CHIP AND RUN) Here I am @qdlresort chipping down a long and very fast green. In order to get the ball close to the 4 pins I use the same Set-Up and Swing for a Release-1 and just swap the club I use. I know I say 60 degrees are for “Emergency Only”! But this first pin was so quick I decided to use my 60 to generate the most check spin to hold the slope. I switch to a 52 for the next spin to help it get to that pin. The 3rd pin is over a slope in the green so I switched

RELEASE 3 EMERGENCY When we miss the green in position Z, we sometimes need a shot that lands as vertically as possible with little forward momentum. Welcome to #release3! . KEY SETUP AND SWING BASICS 🔑 To play this shot successfully, we need to perfect our basics. For the #release3 lob shot, these are: 1️⃣ Stand wider with lower hands 2️⃣ Keep 70% of your weight on the lead side 3️⃣ Keep the loft ‘engaged’, rather than closing the face down .

What is #release2 and how did I play this shot? This shot was with a 56-degree wedge and I used #release2, meaning that the butt of the grip releases naturally to my belt buckle through impact. I gripped towards the top of the club and had my feet approximately 2 club heads apart. I like to see a lower ball flight when pitching with 1-2 yards of draw, as this is most consistent for me! This release will really ramp the spin up, as you can see! Click on #release2 to find more on this shot! #dangr

Dan Grieve’s Release 1 method ⛳️ When on the greens, I tend to drive the hands a little too much, creating a bit too much shaft lean. This leads me to backing up with the spine angle. Here, the feeling I had was allowing the club to release early in transition with very little force then supporting it with my body turn. If you want to remove the nerves around the greens, then I strongly recommend that you listen to some of these key things and test them out yourself. Check out the full video wit

Daniel Grieve on Instagram: "( FORGIVENESS 📈 ) Release 1: Chip and Run When the ground is soft and wet, the club is more likely to dig into the turf - especially if your grip loses height in the downswing . SWING UNDER THE COFFEE TABLE To fix this, we focused on making a lower backswing, as if we were swinging under a coffee table. This allows the club to release naturally into the #1 finish .

Daniel Grieve on Instagram: "( CHIP AND RUN ) Improving Strike 📈 When playing from softer winter lies, it’s easy for the club to dig into the ground and for the ball to come up short. In this scenario, we need a shot where the bounce gently brushes the grass, rather than digs to create a larger margin of error .

Daniel Grieve on Instagram: "Specialist #release1 shot! Sometimes, we find ourselves in a position where we would like to use the #release1 chip and run, but it isn’t easy to control the ball when managing both a downslope and upslope. In these tricky situations, we can use the hook chip to ensure the ball travels forward without too much speed on the upslope.
