For a flop shot you can also go to reverse camera and move the flag stick two squares to the right , and then hit the ding , it might be easier than trying to hit somewhere that you are not used to hitting if you are a ding player .
hahahahah ...... does that make sense , I understand me , but perhaps not all do ?
thats helpful but doesn’t always account for the break I would assume I will try that just to see what happens

When I'm playing a Level 81 ball, I almost never flop. I pitch. But when I play practice rounds with a starter ball, I almost never pitch. I flop.
It is not so long ago that I was using the starter clubs and balls and yes there is some roll but I found the flop to be much easier early on than the chip or pitch. Also I used it and still do to great effectiveness out of the rough
and when playing in the coin rooms, newer players tend to try the pitch of chip from a position like 5 feet below the green. Some times a pitch might perfectly hit the hill and pop up onto the green but what happens more is the pitch not making it on the green and then they are back where they started.
Robert, do the higher level balls make the Flop spin too much or what have you found? In the last day I have noticed actual spin on my wedges, before the update it never did that, just stopped mostly with no roll. So as much as I love the flop, I have started thinking about what other shots might work better. I know it is all situational and per your playing style.
and that’s what this thread was for, to open new players to different shots. Don’t just always go with the default setting the caddy gives you.
