Peter Crocitto III, explains the nuances of executing pitch shots in golf, with a particular focus on the optimal distribution of weight during these shots. He identifies a common flaw among golfers: the tendency to shift their weight towards the back leg during the downswing. This mistake results in the golfer lowering their stance behind the ball, compromising the ability to make first contact with the ball and affecting the shot’s outcome.
To address this issue, Peter demonstrates a technique using a visual training stick placed in the middle of the stance. He emphasizes the importance of shifting weight towards the target during the downswing, ensuring that the golfer’s body moves past the alignment stick. This adjustment allows for a cleaner strike on the ball, eliminating the premature contact with the ground that often results in a less controlled shot.
Peter highlights the benefits of this technique, including improved ball contact, enhanced control over the ball’s spin, and overall predictability of the shot’s outcome. Through his demonstration, viewers learn how to use visual aids to correct their weight distribution, ultimately leading to better performance in hitting pitch shots.
