Bring quick-chip targets back

For a downhill, downwind, down-grain chip, the instructor chooses a 52 because he wants run but also some check. He does not look at the pin; instead he brings the flag much closer and visualizes dying the ball 15 to 20 feet short because the last stretch will run out.

Why this context matters

The chip is downhill, downwind, down grain, and too tufty to putt.
