Here’s a “great” drill that will teach you the correct wrist and arm action needed for great chipping!  Simply setup to a chip shot as normal, as I’m pictured doing below, and then take off your top hand and put it on the back of your bottom hand….

Now, from this “strange” setup position I want you to simply swing back and through…

What you’ll find from doing this drill is that your right wrist is forced to keep the angle that is created and this will lead your hands through the stroke.  This should be happening when chipping, because you never want the clubhead to overtake your hands when chipping.

Keep doing this drill over and over again to ingrain this feel and to make it a habit.  You’ll feel so different when chipping after doing this drill and your confidence will rise accordingly.  You’ll love this drill and the results it gives you, trust me!
