Land a release-two pitch over the ridge

For a 35-yard pitch over a mound, the instructor chooses release two with a little turnover rather than the under release he would use greenside. He says to land it just over the ridge and let it feed down, then notes that getting this shot up and down builds confidence for the next round.
