Tips for Beginners

"Chip" away at your scores

Picture
Golf tip Chipping











PRE-SHOT
EVALUATE your lie
sitting up/down - grain - ball above/below your feet - heavy/light grass -
Select a club according to how high and how far you need to carry the ball.
figuring out how much the ball will roll once it hits the green
(40% in the air & 60% rolling on the green)
Use your imagination when selecting a club to use. Don’t just grab your “chipping club”


SET-UP 
*Grip down for control
*Feet close together
*Feet & Hips aim a little left
*70% of weight on left foot (right handers)
*Hands lean towards target
*Ball belongs generally back in the stance (right handers)

EXECUTION 
*Let the club-head start your swing
*Let your hands hinge on the backswing & keep that hinge to your finish
*Let your upper body move the club back and through (lower body stays passive)
