I've been trying to find some analogue for this technique here on WGT, well, I think I finally have this down after much experimentation.
You will find this type of shot very useful on the 'links' style courses here in high winds. RSG #9 and #18 are where you are going to want to use this technique the most after having your ball roll off the green! If you have the clevelands - whatever, just use your flop - but even if you do have them, you should try this to expand you skills!
The shot type to use is Pitch. You want to use a club that gives you twice the yardage of your shot, use full top spin, and hit a bit more than half power if you are bumping up a slope - how much more depends on the slope. This keeps the flight of the ball very low, it dies into the slope and still rolls nicely to the hole. Play any breaks just like you normally would for a chip shot.
This may also be useful for going up over a small false front of a green that has a downslope to the hole. I'll need to practice this myself, only tried it once in this situation with good result - but really a flop is generally better here anyways.
