It does not seem to matter what you try, you seem to always pull or yank your chip shots to the left. It will take me only three minutes to end it. The first thing to do is get started. First, let’s clarify what chipping means. It is a shot with minimum air time (1/3 air), and maximum roll time (2/3). Pitching, on the other hand has maximum air (2-2/3) and minimal roll time (1/3).
If the shot is close to the green, but it is too rough for the ball to roll on the ground, a chip shot would be considered. The ball must land on the green in order to control how far it will roll. The 1/3 air-2/3 roll is what you see. The chip shots you will have when you reach the golf ball are short, medium and long. A 9-iron is recommended for short chip shots, a 7 iron for medium chips and a 5-iron for longer chips.
Although I cannot teach touch, I am able to teach mechanics. Without perfect mechanics, you can never master touch. You will be amazed at how consistent and accurate your short shots become once you master this shot. It won’t matter if you miss the green because you know you have something you can rely on.
We’ll be discussing this method in a moment. After you’ve chosen your club, you should make sure you are addressing the ball at the middle of the stance. Second, make sure to place 70% of your body weight on the left foot. Next, move the handle over to your left leg. You are now ready to go.
You must allow the club to swing in an arc. It must also swing down towards the ball’s bottom on that same arc. The leading edge must be allowed to touch the ground at impact. You will lose your chip shots if you don’t do this.
