If you buy Lowest Score Wins, you’ll learn about “Separation Value.” We break down the skills in golf that allow you to shoot your lowest score by their ability to separate yourself from others.
Something we call “Greenside Shots” are an SV③ skill, and thus fairly important.
This video highlights a fun, easy way to test whether your pitching skills are allowing you to properly use the club’s “glide” to slide the clubhead on the ground and properly pitch two, three, even four golf balls with the same swing. Maybe even five…
Have a look.

Interesting drill, which ball should be the one when you are hitting a real shot? I assume the first one.
The first or the second, typically. Ball position can change, though, and the drill simply strives to create a very shallow hit that allows the club to “glide” along the ground for a long time.
Thanks for the comment/question!
Great looking drill that looks to really address my overly hands forward pitching problems. Can’t wait to try it out. Awesome book too!
