These Aren't Mini-Full Swings

Where these videos agree

Most golfers try to control wedge distance by simply slowing down their full swing. These videos show this is a mistake. Across the set, instructors from Dan Grieve to Danny Maude treat pitching as an extension of the short game, not a miniature long-game shot. They all begin by narrowing your stance and connecting your arms to your chest, creating a quieter, rotation-based motion that delivers consistent, solid strikes—the true key to predictable distances.
