3 Chip Shots Around the Green to LOWER Your Score - Beginner Golfer In this video, I share three simple ways to practice your chipping and pitching to help lower your golf scores. I start by explaining the different capabilities of wedges—like how a sand wedge can give you more height and a pitching wedge can provide more roll. This understanding is crucial as it influences the chip shot decisions you make on the course. For the first practice, I demonstrate hitting shots from knee to knee with both a sand wedge and a pitching wedge. This exercise is designed to help you gauge carry and total distance, essential for mastering green side chip shots. The second practice focuses on the pocket to pocket technique, where keeping your hands straight back and maintaining a connected "Y" shape are key to consistency. In the third practice, I show how adjusting your hand position higher towards the hips can impact your shots, demonstrating the differences in distance and trajectory between the wedges. Each of these practices is aimed at improving your feel and control around the green, which are vital for chip shots in golf. I encourage all viewers to spend time refining these techniques. Whether you're dealing with fat chip shots or trying to avoid thin chip shots, these exercises can dramatically improve your scoring and competitiveness on the golf course. Practice these chip shot tips, and watch your scores drop! FREE DOWNLOAD OF GOLF STARTER GUIDE: Grip, Aim, Posture, Stance (GAPS) Knowing the Golf Fundamentals will 100% make you a better golfer.
