Short Game shot selection options around the green 

These videos are great complementary of the book.

By far the best short game coach and videos on the entire internet...

"World Class". I'm still practicing my checklists for all 3 releases when I can. I'm also grateful for these type of videos too. Thanks so much Dan!

I love that it switched from Option A (high handicap) and Option B (low handicap) to Option A (safer option) and Option B (more risky) about halfway through the video. I think lower handicaps should really think about utilizing safer option in a lot of situations and don't need to technically go with the Option B shot just because they are a better player. As you can see, Dan is one of the best short gamers around, and even Option A produced a better result in certain scenarios. I think that's a really good point to take out of this lesson.

This is a wonderful side dish to your book, which I cannot stop reading daily. I’ve blocked out everyone else on YT and only work on your teachings. Thanks again for everything, Dan!!

I’m reading the book often and learning the techniques, but these video clips enforce the process and it’s like having you there with me, thank you for your time 🏌️‍♂️

Primary takeaway - high lofted shots are rarely the answer if all you care about is outcome :) For shot 7 - I was surprised you didn't do a putt chip there. A gentle 8 iron toe down that carries the fringe and releases down would be my approach. Release 1 has revolutionized my game, now I need to grind on Release 2 and my pitching game from 80yds and in (your last video was very helpful for that). Truly an amazing complement to the book, and so very helpful!

Txs Dan. Please keep videos on how to evaluate which option to go for on different lies, greens, bunkers etc. Brilliant insights.

Such great tips!! My game has improved immensely thanks to Dan!!

Excellent video as always Dan thank you .

This guy should have 1mil subscribers 👍👍👍

absolutely fantastic video I am a 20 handicapper and I drop many shots unnecessarily around the green. I will use this video and try and embedded the thinking behind it. awesome 👌 👏 👍🏽

Shot 5, if we're talking safe options.. I have a Cleveland chipper for that stuff, works lovely. Brilliant execution though with that putter stroke Dan! Your short game system is great.

Thank you Professor Grieve. Been working on R1 & R2 recently, having never practiced chipping before! Some green shoots on the course but plenty of work to do.

Awesome video Dan, really eye opening. Watching someone who is technically very proficient at playing the higher level shots and still getting closer to the pin with the safer shot option wasn't something I was expecting to see. Really appreciate you keeping the authenticity in your videos and not just hitting a bunch of shots and cherry picking your best. It really hammers home how often us higher handicap players probably make the wrong decisions when it comes to the short game 👍

Love these in depth videos Dan. 👍⛳👏👏👏

Great stuff! I liked the fact that on several occasions the safe shots produced the better end result.

This is the best video till date for me Thank You for sharing valuable techniques

Thanks Dan, your tips have transformed my short game immensely. Your system has given me alot more confidence around the green. I tell all my buddies about you.

Still learning the 3 releases and such but I’m just the 2 months I’ve been heavily HEAVILY working on my short game especially around the green. Well my last 2 rounds of golf I holed my first chip in from a major slope about 60ft back on hole 8, then when I played 18 I actually almost holed out 17&18. Best videos I’ve watched

Fantastic insight, just loved the fact that we could compare the different options for each shot. Just shows that keeping golf simple and safe can give you as good or even better results depending on the shot. Thanks for great content Dan.

love all the options.thanks for this detail. John

Best video you've released. Really good insight into each shot with different lies. The hero shots are what most go for. Excellent

Yet another great video Dan, thanks. You’re really helping my short game with these videos and I’ve got your book too. I did laugh though - on shot 1 the safe option is to chip away from the pin and “leave yourself about 25 feet away, which you should be able to two putt…” I guess “should” is the key word here 🤣🤣

You are doing the Lord’s work my friend. Bravo!

Your descriptions of the process and 3 release methodology really brings it all together for me. I’m still in the process of mastering release one and after sticking to it through some natural bungles (I was a pretty good chipper) I’ve come through the other side and I’m starting to establish flight and roll consistency whereby I can now visualize the flight and landing spots and I’m really seeing results. I love the A/B of this video and demonstration of the variety of clubs and strikes to address conditions we typically encounter. All I can say is that when the rest of my game; which kind of sucks at times, isn’t there my short game and putting keeps me in it and gives me some “street cred”. Great vid and I’m a devoted acolyte. ❤❤😊

Dan is the short game guru! The best! Love it!

Brilliant video👍🏽. The short game is the artistry of golf in my opinion and learning more options is always a win. Cheers Dan.

Amazing episode as always!! Thank you.

Thanks Dan, this is excellent content and helps in understanding options on stroke and club and position. Looking forward for more great content from you.

Dan this is a great Vid, really compliments your book and other vids. It gives us permission to bleed in technique to our playing rounds as our confidence and skill levels increase. This is one of your most important vids. Thank you

Well done Dan. I have your book and this video connects the book with real time golf !

Hello Dan , it is so much fun to watch you playing all these amazing shots. I will keep your advice in mind and hopefully use the right option the next time. 🙂

One of the best short game videos,thanks dan

Definitely watching this before every round! Thanks Dan amazing

Stumbled upon Dan about 6/7 weeks ago. Watched a few vids and then purchased book and started trying to hit release 1, 2, 3 shots. Use 2 or 3 different clubs with each. Especially agree with 50% technique and 50 % mental breakdown. I believe I’m choosing more appropriate shots now that I have options. In past couple weeks my game around the green has gotten better and in some cases much better. Have saved par or bogey a number of times. Thanks Dan!

This was a fantastic set! Really helpful!

Love your stuff Dan. Been reading the book. Incredible content.

Grateful for your thoughtful and helpful content Dan.

Bought your book. My short game is fairly good. Better than my more experienced friends. This book has been a good investment, as your method has given me more options. Thank you for your contribution to the game

This is absolute gold Dan. Cheers.

Great video. Really good usable advice! Will be trying some of these in my next round

Dan this was awesome It looks like you followed us all on our last round missing greens I like how sensible you are making us all thing. I play with several low handicappers and they use the hybrid bump as you did here

I’m a 3 handicap and am working on the 3 releases but this video is showing me how I really need to use a more conservative route! Awesome video!

Great video, love the way you show the different ways depending on skill level really helpful

Best video I've seen on short game 👏👏👏👏

This is pure gold!

The book is awesome Dan and these YT vids help to reinforce the teaching in the book

Absolutely class. Wonderful insight into the mental approach. As a high handicapper i have to thank you for these invaluable thoughts and instruction. Faced exactly that today on the course. Chose high tarrif over a bunker onto a sloping green and lost it of the back, where i should played to the right through gap between bunkers with loads of green , 2 putts and onto the next instead of a further chip and 2 putts. 🤣

This was very helpful, Thank you.

Really good video Dan. I’m a 7.8 index and have fallen foul to the “use loft every time” attitude in the past. Having played with a few scratch guys and seeing their ability to just do what you need to do to get it closest my eyes have been opened. This video just solidifies that theory that it’s just about shooting the lowest score and hopefully that will take me to the next level of a 5 index or lower.

These videos are so good! Thank you so much. Everyone should get your book then come here, they marry up perfectly. Slowly increasing my chipping IQ

Dan. thank you thank you thank you! i have totally switched focus from long to short game because of you

Great video Dan...as always;-)

Great video Dan great to see a video for us high handicappers. Most videos geared for better golfers than me. Next time I play gives me more options that did not know I had

Great video, subscribed immediately. Cheers from Germany

I needed this tutorial, thanks Dan

Wow! Dan and Rick releasing videos on the same day. What have we done to deserve this?

Once again a masterclass by Dan just goes to show there's always an easier option if you look closely Cheers Dan

Fantastic..Great visual video

I believe Dan just showed us that a lot of the time, the safe shot is the best shot.

Another top video. All your golf tips have help me out big time since I started last year. Keep them coming 👍🏻🏌️⛳️

Thanks Dan. I was a terrible chipper and your book & videos has helped me improve my technique but this content is great for me when I’m on the course, knowing what to do in these situations. Happy to see more of this 😊

Very very helpful to put your book into practical situations. Thank you

Absolutely love your videos 😊😊😊😊

Great video. Really useful

Such a great video, thank you

Excellent video!

great fun Dan. your presentation style tenor is the best! congrats

Hi Dan, new subscriber here. Just bought your book "3 releases" and your videos are excellent. Thanks so much for creating this content. Cheers, Sid.

I watch this a few times a week 👍👍

again, so helpful!

Great video!!! I just discovered you on tik tok the other day. I downloaded ur book last night and am looking forward to reading it. I'm a 12 handicap and chipping is holding me back from breaking 80 on a consistent basis. Hoping this helps. I love my 58 degree but don't always trust it and duff it. Hoping I can get past that!

🙏 Dan, this will save me a lot of strokes!!

Excellent Video, I leaned a lot from this.

Just received your book, knowledge is key. Thankyou.

Great work Dan!

Great idea for a video. Great content. Nice job!

Fantastic video

Excellent video. Thank you. 3 releases book was excellent as well!

awesome video, thank you!

Great adjunct to your amazing book …..

Awesome vid.

Just got your book and looking forward to putting it into practice

just fantastic tutorial

Great tips! thanks 👍🏻👍🏻

Brilliant, where was this when I was a junior golfer 😢

excellent advice. Thanks

Brilliant video as as usual. I would love to see the impacts from the front which is great to see how you release the club for each shot.

It cannot be overstated that Option A, the Safe shot, the high handicap shot, the easier shot to hit, was better and closer to the hole on 8 of these 10 examples. Only twice was it better to go with the more difficult option. That says it all right there.

Great stuff mate!

Great advice thank you

Brilliant Video🎉

Brilliant video.

thanks for this Dan!!!

Thanks as always from Virginia Dan!

Probably the most useful golf instruction on the interwebz. Probably 50% of the shots I drop around the greens are failures of forethought more than technique.

I think I need to watch this video before playing every round. Really helpful in understanding the options, and at my high handicap standard, the questions I need to ask myself is, "What is Option A? And why would I not be taking it?"

Good stuff Dan, Thanks!

Hi Dan!! Thanks for the video! Pure gold!! When a video about how to control distance from the bunker? Thanks
