I know you struggle with your chipping
0:01
Let's use something you've already got on your golf bag, a golf ball box. Here's two tricks to help you fix it
0:07
First things first, let's get you finding that middle. I know for a fact, right, I feel the same
0:12
Strikes towards the heel or out towards the toe. Just give you sleepless nights, right
0:17
So nice and simple, the first golf ball box, you're going to place just one fingertip outside the golf ball
0:23
The idea here is just miss the box. If you're someone who moves your hands closer towards the golf ball
0:30
on the through swing, you're going to catch the box. And if you're someone who goes a little bit out and pulls in
0:36
again, you're going to catch the box. So nice and simple. Let's see if we can play this chip and avoid the box
0:42
This is a bit of a tough one, actually. A little bit downhill. Left to right
0:46
Here we go. A little bit like that. Let's move on to number two
0:56
So the biggest route to consistency with your pitching and chipping is keeping that club on plane
1:01
If you whip it inside on the way back, we're in danger zone
1:05
So nice and simple, grab yourself a wedge of any description. I've got my 54 here and all I'm going to do is place it underneath my front foot
1:14
And this is actually really key. Listen to where I place that there under the ball of my big toe on my left foot
1:20
So for a right hander, it's on your left foot. For a left hander, it'd be on your right foot
1:25
Look at this. this from down the line now, if I whip this club inside, I'm going to contact the grip
1:31
What our aim is here is to swing back, swing through. The club may feel a little bit more out on the way back, but that's a great feeling for you
1:40
if you're whipping it inside. So nice, simple objective, don't hit the club on the way back or the way through
1:48
And you'll start to get those strikes a little bit like that
