You would have to hit it absolutely perfect for that shot to end up okay or good. Like absolutely perfect. Wesley telling me how to chip. Why don’t you just go low? No, I don’t like that. Okay. It should not work out with that lie in this the situation here. We’ll see. It shouldn’t work out too well. We’ll see. Oh I’m just saying like I think we got in there that you would have to hit it. Absolutely perfect for that shot to end up okay or good. Like absolutely perfect. Wesley telling me how to chip. Did you see your swing? Your back swing also went really far. I’m go low with it. Well, you can’t. To be fair, you can’t go high. Well done, Wesley. Tell you what, there was a tremendous amount of pressure to hit that one somewhat close to the hole. Welcome back to the Athletic Golf Project channel. Today I want to show you guys what Jason Day’s chipping technique looks like and what the strengths are. And we’re going to compare it to Wesley Brian whose nickname is Wedgely. So he’s quite the wizard around the greens. I’ve got two flags, a short one and a long one. And I’m going to go to a long one first. And I’m going to use Jason Day’s technique, which is he’s got his handle pretty low, so that shallows him out. Then he’s got a wide radius, very little wrist set. I want to show you guys from here, too. Wide radius, right? And so his hands travel lots to the right to left. Another factor for shallowness. So he has to keep his weight quite a bit forward, which is a steepener. Weight forward is a steepener. That’s how he matches it. And you can hit nice chip shots like that, but they’re going to come off pretty low and hot. So please roll out the last flag. So you can see with this ball flag, with this technique, I have a harder time hit to the first flag. Going to use the same technique here to the first flag now. And now I’m gonna have to land almost in the fringe with this ball flight. Handle is pretty low, weights forward, lots of radius, very little wrists. There you go. Landed on the fringe. And you can see in those videos that Jason Day is constantly struggling flighting it to the flag. Wesley on the other hand can’t hit it to the green, spin it because he’s got a different ball flight. And the reason why he’s got a different ball flight is because his handle is more upright. And then secondly, his radius is not very wide. His hand radius is pretty narrow. And when you do that at the same ball position, the ball flight’s going to come off completely different. So we’re going to get closer to the ball. Instead of wide and non- wristy, we’re going to set our wrists. The energy is more in the hands. Now the club face is being moved throughout space on a circle on plane. More so with the hands. Let’s have a look at the ball flight. One last thing before I hit this ball. I have to remind myself too, got to use more club head speed now cuz the ball’s going to come off slower, softer. There you go. Right. So, went 2 ft longer, 5 ft long, but you can see the ball flight is completely different. So, that’s going to get you out of jail when you’re around the greens. And it’s funny, the the boys are arguing. And Jason Day, of course, former number one player in the world, you know, doesn’t have it much, but he should actually listen to Mr. Brian further away again. We’re going to go out to a long flag and wide and non- wristy weight forward to match it. All right. So, beautiful technique. The greens are a bit soft today, but beautiful technique to roll it out to the long flag and back closer to the ball. Handle more upright. Hands stay really tight. I call them T-Rex arms. So, the hands don’t travel much right and left. Club face is energized by the pivot and by the hand action which goes more up and down or in the lacrosse fashion. I made a long video on that too, right? So that way you can hit the ball so hard and it’s not going anywhere except up and soft. Super. There you go. And of course, you could make that really, really extreme. I really feel inclined want to hit a lob shot over those people, but I’m a member, so let’s not um let’s do it. Put this Why don’t I put this golf ball right there? Once you have good technique and keep the radius narrow, not only in the back swing, but also in the forward swing, the shot is less scary than it looks. There you go. pretty good. So, two more shots. And should you practice both? Yes, I think you should to have some variances in the short game. Which one would I play more often? I think short game magicians are on the narrow side, especially around the greens. Wedge and full swing players like let’s say when I say wedge, distance wedges, 60 yards, 100 yards, they’re more on the wide side. So, we’re going to go to the first flag one more time, but we’re going to pick the Jason Day shot, which makes it hard. All right, I’m going land this on the fringe again. Hopefully. Yeah, I mean one foot on the fringe. So, I have very little margin. That’s my law bridge already. So, imagine the greens being firm on the PJ tour. These are like Florida greens. Not quite firmed up yet from the winter. So, let’s get closer to the ball again. Shaft more upright nail radius. And now you have freedom to be aggressive with the club face. So, which one do you prefer? Wesley Bryan, Jason Day. If you have green to work with, Jason Day, it’s an option. If the ball’s sitting nice, no problem. Tight fair was in a PJ tour, no problem. Municipal courses, country clubs that are not PJ tour. I’m going to go narrow on average, right? So, I’m going to practice. My short game methods are all based on a more narrow hand radius, right? So that makes it very non-dynamic. You will always have lots of loft here. A wide radius with further away from the ball will always get you to more shaft. So you turn your lob wedge into something less lofted. It’s a good thing for full swing, but not for short game. Follow along. See you soon.

Jason Day and Wesley Bryan go back and forth on how to hit a tricky off-the-green shot… but here’s the truth nobody likes to say out loud: most PGA Tour players can’t actually explain what they’re doing. They’re gifted birds born to fly — instinctive, automatic, and brilliant, but not necessarily analytical.

That’s where a real technician steps in. A highly analytical coach can dissect the micro-mechanics and the real reason why one of them has the better technique for the shot at hand. I’ll break down exactly that in the analysis that follows.
