Chapter 19: Chipping
Pro Tips (from the book!)
• The bump and run chip can be done with a 8 iron or 9-iron based on the shot distance.
• Effective because you can hit it like a putt, making it less risky than a longer swing.
• Feet closer together, ball in line with back foot, weight on front foot, and hands/club shaft should be in front of the ball. From there, you can just swing it like a putting stroke.
• The hands/shaft in front of the ball towards the target will deloft the club, allowing for the putting stroke to get the ball out onto the green with more roll.
• For further chips, simply bring the club back further with a little more speed. You still want to follow through like you do with the putter. Stopping at impact will make it hard to control.
