Hi! I am Jason Wyatt head golf professional here at Sunningdale Golf and Country Club
and on behalf of ExpertVillage.com, I am here to show you lefties how to hit a better chip
shot. Just before you move into the basics of the chip, just remember I am a right-handed
golfer if you are a lefty, you are a mirror image of me. So whatever I do you just follow
again being a left-handed player. We are going to hit a chip shot here, so what I would like
to do is grab my pitching wedge, 8 iron, 9 iron depends how far we have to go and when
I hit a chip shot, I want to see the chip shot jump a third and run two-thirds to the
hole, that means having to pick a spot out on the putting green that you have to hit.
If you see my spot here, what I am going to do is my feet go together again, put the golf
club down, align it up to my target, right thing it to go in. You got to make sure all
my weights on the front foot, ball is back in my stance, my hands are forward and what
I am going to do is I am going to make a stroke, set my triangle, maintain the triangle throughout
the whole golf swing. What we see a lot of is people breaking their wrist and you cannot
do that when you hit a chip shot, you will hit it thin or you will hit it what we call
heavy, so once again weight upfront, pretend that from your waist down, you are in motion
you cannot move. Grip down on the golf club, fall back of the stance, hands forward and
just rock that shoulder back and forth. And finish. If you do those tips you will hit
better chip shots.
