So I practiced with the Niblicks in the backyard after mowing the lawn today. It seems like whatever swing I want to use in my chips/pitches the Niblicks made execution a breeze. I did a putting style (with a bit of a hinging at transition) for short chips and pitches, a little choked up hands-ahead address for bump 'n runs, a little finesse wristy flip I use sometimes when short sided, as well as a regular, "full swing" type setup with the backswing being just long enough to get the distance I desired for pitches (9 o'clock, 7:30 whatever) . The Niblicks handled them all with ease and I'm filled with confidence. Still waiting for my 42 degree to arrive. :rockon:
