Chipping in Golf

What coaches agree on

  • Stand closer to the ball than you would for a full shot, with a narrower stance and the handle raised so the shaft sits more upright. This shortens your swing arc and cuts down clubface rotation, making the strike and start line far easier to control.
  • Chip with one simple motion: turn your chest and upper body back and through together, and let your arms and hands come along passively for the ride instead of working the club independently.

  • Before you swing, pick a specific landing spot, ideally a flat area on the green, and choose whichever club and length of swing will get the ball there and rolling the right amount, rather than reaching for the same club every time.

Common mistakes

  • Letting your weight hang back on the trail foot, or tilting your shoulders away from the target at address, while trying to help the ball into the air is what causes chunked, thinned, and skulled chip shots, because it pushes the swing's low point behind the ball instead of at or just past it.
