Chipping

[[7f1734]Happy [53c6e6]Hammer]

Played various golf games for over 40 years and class myself as half decent, but does anyone else find chipping very erratic? I can just about control pitching, but chipping you can stop at the same point and it either goes short or way past, so frustrating when you chip from 6 yards, feel you've judged it perfectly and it goes 20 foot past, on the next hole you do exactly the same and stays 4 foot short (just can't get my head around it)

For Chipping, you want to land 50% of the distance on a flat level surface. If it is running downhill, back that off to say 30%, and for uphill go to 75%. Pitching is typically 7yds of run out after landing, unless you are way off the green,

I erased my comment as I had totally misunderstood your question.

Have you tried using a pro with very high short game skills and see if it happens again? Even if the RNG may land your ball (by hitting exactly two same shot) let's say just 3-4 feet longer or shorter, there actually may be a strong inclination where one ball lands, and the other doesn't. Landing the ball on downhill of course will give it a big boost to roll, while if it land uphill of course it will roll less. Terrain has been scanned and is very realistic, this is why some game mechanics we have never seen in the past, I play too golf games since early 90s.
