Getting Control Of Your Chipping

GETTING CONTROL OF YOUR CHIPPING
5 Ways To Shorten Your Distance
METHODS MATTER

Our ‘555 Team’ helps you ‘Get A Grip’ on improving ‘Procedures’. The baseline truth is found in our consistent ‘Set-Ups’. Becoming aware of ‘The 5 Ways To Shorten Your Distance’ is more than useful, especially in a logical order! “A Chip is a Putt with a Hop!”

1. Your ‘First Method of Shortening Your Distance’ is to elect to ‘DECELERATE’. That, as the ‘555 Family’ all know, is an ‘Absolute NO NO!’

2. ‘SELECT the Appropriate Golf Club’ to accomplish both Ball-Flight, Curvature and Distance. Make the factory design work for you! (‘Trajectory & Parabola’)

3. ‘GRIP DOWN’ 1, 2, 3 or 4 inches as required to reduce ‘Clubhead Speed’.

4. ‘BRACE FOOT STANCE NARROWED’ progressively 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 inches. Your ‘Ball Location’ should remain very consistently under the ‘Clavicle’ (Collar Bone) as this establishes a reliable ‘Bottom Of Swing Arc’ (BOSA) This ‘Narrowed Stance Width reduces the ‘Pivot Performance’ (see ‘Pivot Pressure’ and ‘Weight Distribution’) (see ‘Brace Toe Pressure’)

5. ‘BODY CLOCKING’ is specifically about your ‘Brace Hand Travel Distance’. (see ‘Range Of Motion’) We stage this key clocking feature to the Brace Thigh, Brace Hip, Brace Mid Rib Cage, Brace Shoulder Socket and Brace Ear. ‘Overswinging’ is chronically malignant. If you want to get ‘Out Of Balance’, that will do it dependably! “Work Smart!”

Minimize the amount of wrist action when chipping to help to reduce the chance of flip-handing or scooping when you come to and through the impact zone. A small amount of wrist hinge will happen during the back & upswing, depending on your ‘Body Clocking Limit’.

Remember, your Front Swing should feel “Down, Out, Forward & Through (DOFT) and NOT AT The Golf Ball’.
