Perfect Chipping

One of the biggest problems I see when people are chipping the ball is the urge for the player to get under & get height on the ball. This leads to a scooping motion, which is without doubt something you want to avoid in this game. 

To help you hit crisper chips try this drill.  

1)      Take a small narrow stance about 8 inches apart with the ball in line with the right heel & hands inline with the left thigh

2)      Put all the weight on your left side

3)      Drag your right foot back so the toes are inline with the left heel

4)      Raise your right heel off the ground using the toes for just a little balance 

Hit chip shots from this position & you will start to feel the crisp strike.
