Het is één van Pulkkanen’s favoriete afstanden, een meter of 40 van de vlag. Hij komt al snel to the point, het is een kwestie van de handen gebruiken en met een open clubblad de bal laten vertrekken. Bij startende golfers is dit niet iets wat je graag wil overbrengen want het vraagt om een subliem gevoel van timing, als het misgaat dan gaat het ook flink mis. Maar Pulkkanen is niet bang om eerst de grond te raken, sterker nog hij wil graag eerst de bounce van de club contact met gras laten maken en zo de maximale loft te gebruiken. Laat je inspireren met deze video!

Hello, my name is Tapio Pulkan and I’m going to show you one of my favorite shots. Uh it’s like a 30 yard pitch. I do this same technique for 50 yard up to 50 maybe 60 60 yards. So uh the most important for me is to open the face a lot. So I kind of uh I play with it a little bit. Sometimes I open it as much as I can and but usually it’s open like this. Uh I uh I have a open face weight on the left and then try to kind of release this way. So I don’t I’m not holding the club at all. I want to have a release and I’m trying to use the bounce bounce to I don’t mind if the club heads the ground hits the ground before the ball. So I actually try to do it that hits the ground a little bit before the ball. So, I’ll show you show you the way. That’s pretty good. A little bit long, but uh contact was exactly what I tried to do. Yeah, with the pole position, I uh I move it a little bit more forward if I want to have a more more flight on the ball. But uh I also uh make the height with the with my follow through. So I keep it low little bit lower when I hit the low one and a little bit higher like release it more if I want it higher. So I’ll hit one one high one for you. Still a pretty good one. Pretty good one. I’ll show you one one low shot as well. So everything the same. Just try to release it a little bit lower. So about the release. So I like to I like to use hands. So it’s kind of release the clubs but club but I don’t want to rotate the club like this. So I want to release it so that it stays still open all the time. So if I want to have as much spin as possible, I kind of uh I open the face as much as I can basically almost like this and uh like a quick release like a little bit quicker than than before. It’s short, but it’s quite spinny spinny shot. So, but basically it’s the same technique for all shots. Just uh little bit feel. Yeah, this is my my way of doing it. And I feel like when I open the face, I never never hit it fat. It kind of it works like a spoon, so it kind of slides in the ground. And if you have a square face, I feel like I tend to dig a little bit. So when I have an open face, I feel like I can’t really hit it flat or So this is my way of doing it.
