A Plate Full Of Primarily Chipping
1) Definition: A Putt is all roll … all ‘Ground Time’ and no ‘Air Time’. A Chip is a Putt with a Hop. ‘No Wrist Cock and No Pivot’ (see ‘Stage 1 Procedure’)
2) Pitching has a Ball Flight Ratio wherein ‘The Air Time and Ground Time’ are more equal. ‘Short Pitches’ may involve a slight ‘Wrist Cock’ (see ‘Stage 2 Procedure’) As your ‘Body Clocking’ (Swing Length) increases, there is ‘Pivot Loading’. (see ‘Stage 3 Procedure’) As your Clubhead Speed and Energy Level increases, one might accomplish a lot more Air Time Than Ground Time.
3) Huge Discretionary Club Selection. You and Chip with every club from you V Wood (Fairway Metal) to your Lob Wedge. (#LW – 60 Degrees) Expect more Air Time Than Ground Time. Strike a #LW with lots of Clubhead Velocity and you shall soon know what we mean by these last few sentences! Choose the most efficient golf club.
4) Essential aspects are ‘Ocular Acuity’ and ‘ Deep Diaphragmatic Breathing’.
5) ‘5 Essential Elements’ diligently for every procedure … Clubface Aim, Clubhead Path & Plane, Clubhead Speed, Sweet Spot and Angle of Attack. ‘5 Set-Ups’ diligently for every procedure … Posture, Grip, Stance, Ball Location and Alignment.
6) Be aware of your ‘Environment’. Analyze your ‘Lie’ and ‘The Green’.
7) Develop and use a very efficient ‘Pre-Shot Routine’ (PSR) Determine your 12 Inch Landing Circle with the Air Ground Ratio fully in mind.
8) Make several ‘Practice Swings. (see ‘Pivot Waggles’)
9) Chipping Ball Location is generally slightly ‘Aft Of Your Sternal Center’. Shot necessity will soon teach you variety! Tend to ‘Choke Down On The Grip’.
10) Your ‘Shoulder Axis and Configuration’ are key elements. ‘Stance Width’ is better on the narrow side of the spectrum. ‘Flare Your Target Foot’.
11) Use your ‘Impact Fix’ and strive to ‘Cover The Ball Through The Impact a& Separation Zone’. (see ‘Chase, Follow & Finish and Hold’)
12) ‘Hands Get To The Ball First’! (see ‘Forward Press’)
13) Set-Up and maintain ‘Solid, Quiet, Lever Triangles’. (‘No Flippy Handed Triangles’)
14) Develop a ‘Flight Ratio Sheet’. Body Clocking is not an option!
15) When in your ‘Short Game’, you must “GET THERE!” Short never finds the cup bottom.
16) ‘Loft Around The Green Is Not Your Friend!’ Bump & Run is better than ‘Flop Shots’.
