This Month’s Tip- March 2016

 

CHIPPING:

Chipping is similar to the putting stroke in that there is no wrist action however this shot needs to produce trajectory into the air.  The loft of the club will launch the ball up if the middle of the clubface is used.  Most mishits are from using the bottom of the club.  In order to get the ball up on the clubface the bottom groove on the face has to enter the turf.  In order to accomplish this using a putting stroke the angle of the arc must be adjusted. You achieve this by leaning your body to the target and allowing the putting stroke to enter the ground.
