Gareth's chip: landing spot 6% plus 1% roll = 7
But in the video he takes his aimpoint/start line read of 7, from behind the ball.
Chip was 25% carry, 75% roll, so the read from behind the ball should have been 7x.75 = 5. Correct.
Asking this clarifying question to ensure the various read options.

Hi Ron,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Yes, you are correct, the read from the ball would have been 5, the read from the landing spot would be 7.
Regards,
Gareth
Opps, I just watched Jamie's chip again(same video). His high lofted shot was a basic read, so it should have been 1% slope x 2 (double the #) x .33 (1/3 roll). In the video, he calculated the read as 1% x .33 roll, forgot to double the read. Am I correct?
Thanks, that is good news. Wanted to ensure I understood the various options.
Hoping the AimPoint short game approach will help me improve my scrambling, which Arccos indicates that I am below my benchmark group
