Chip on green

  Hello fellas.

  I'm not a kind of person that remark a problem on WGT, I love that site and how It goes for me but there's a question that involve many of us. Every one of us surely play a match play where the opponent play "dirty" with acting on chip on green from distance putt. 

  I usually do not contest that and I didn't do it with my rival but it's quite unfair play like this, well-known that in real match play if You shot chip on green game go end with 2 strokes under, even if happen when you play with your mates at the CC: I brake my driver on you back mate.

  So I hope that for the next year WGT will act on the green's condition and remove the possibility to choose different clubs except the putter.

  I think that's not a hard option to patch on the game. 
  So guys c'mon, let's stop chip on green.

   

  Cheers and ciao,
  Davide.

  Any club at any time rules state, its no different than putting from the fairway as many of us do in real life

  Hey there,

  personally the only time i use an iron on green is to read/confirm the line i want then i will putt it, only time i use chip/flop is on the fringe of the green, personally i dont like the use of chip/pitch when actually on the green as it just doesnt sit well with me

  regards

  Yeah, 2002 Ryder Cup.
  Maybe it's not clear but sometimes that shot remind me up a movie.

  "Jurassic Park: where dinos play golf with indian clubs"

  I know that's got no regulation but still be a unfair game, I think.

  Cheers,

  Chipping  on the green is not illegal, so I don't think anything is wrong with it.
