Question: How Can I Stop Hitting Fat or Thin Pitch Shots?
Answer: Gary's Quick Tip:

The setup is vital for you to hit your pitch shots solid, and for the ball to travel the right distances.

Your clubface and body alignment need to be open, while the ball should be in the middle of your stance. Make sure your weight is on your left side, and that during the swing your legs stay quiet. Your legs should move only with the momentum of the swing.
