Starting with the proper setup is essential to chipping effectiveness. Follow these three simple setup steps to achieve consistent success. Take a stance that aligns you to the target and then (1) put the ball back in your stance, (2) put your weight predominately on the forward foot and (3) put your hands forward of the ball. Keeping your weight on the forward foot and your hands forward during the shot will ensure solid contact. Practice this with a variety of clubs to develop a versatile chipping game.

“Fundamentals, fundamentals, fundamentals. Let me show you what good players do. Let me show what you are doing via video playback. Then, lets develop a practice routine to help you quickly transition to a more productive set of mechanics. I want my students to know what to practice and how to practice. But most importantly, I want my students to understand WHY good players do what they do. After a lesson with me, you will understand how the practice will improve your game.”
