like go of bad lies like I I try to pretend I’m you and that allows me to kind of Swing my shoulders and make solid contact you can hit that nice quality strike we see the average person just kind of glance at their target and stare at the ball the ball’s not going anywhere when you’re hitting that shot tiger come here for a sec I want to I want to get your CL that feel weird to you no not really it’s a little closer than I normally am but now as I get to 40 50 yard shots there it is right there so 7 bu steros is’s not with us anymore gave me the greatest tip of all time that’s lasted for me to this day is now look at that there’s Perfection for you look at this tell me where it goes everybody from the best in the world to the worst in the world if there was one shot that was not as quite as good as the rest of the game because it doesn’t allow it to happen is chipping take the best chipper in the world if you took over a year chipping say from 10 yards off to the edge of the green probably the average distance would be that well he’s still got to hold that putt whereas if you got long putts lag putts are 40 foot you could say the average is going to be that big difference so chipping is so exact because you might pitch into a divot you might pitch into the grain you might pitch with the grain you might pitch across grain you might just be a little unlucky with the way the ball bounces and has a great effect of being close to the hole but there’s a rule keep it low for the dough hit it high and you’re going to cry or you’re going to die so the thing is that the average weekend golfer he’s right on the edge of the green I see him using a sandwich really he’s got no chance let’s see you chip one got a six iron here you’ve got a six iron a six iron and I always try and pitch the ball just on the edge of the green here okay so now here I got a six iron I’m going to try and pitch the ball right here it’s much easier to pitch the ball here than it is to pitch it on a spot over there unless you practice all day so okay here we got the six on watch this I’m going to pitch it just on the edge of the green here now look at that there’s Perfection for you look at this tell me where it goes now do you know that’s not trick photography right they saw that on a camera 1962 Arnold I planned a practice round at Palm Springs and I’m chipping every ball off the edge of the green and I mean I don’t care whe I’m whe I’ve got a five iron six iron nine iron what it is and I’m sitting there hitting these little chip shots you know boom and and and they’re broing up 3 four five feet from the hole and Arnold said why are you doing that I said what do you mean I said well I’m just chipping and he says well he says think about something he said think about that chip how good was that chip I said how far how how what how how good that was 4T from the hole I said that’s a pretty good Chip he says well let’s take your putter what would happen if you were in the same exact place and you use your putter for the same shot would four feet be acceptable he said that’d be a pretty bad putt well sort of think about that your maybe your your worst putt will be just as good as your best chip that’s sure you might chip the ball closer sometimes but you’re not going to hit the ball very far from the hole with a putter so he told me says put that put that chiping iron away let’s get the putter out when you’re off the green let’s put it off the green I use that the rest of my life any question any viewer can ask me about this shot I’m going to say to you just like you putt now if you’re a craw sanded putter you play the shot cross-handed if you’re separated with fingers down however you grip it and whatever your stance might be just like you putt now you’re going to see me when I go to putt and I don’t have my glove on well that’s the only thing I do different I’m going to steal a line from Ray Floyd he called it putting with Loft y all right so I like to get the club pretty vertical I’m not standing way out here with the hands real low I’m almost more in my putting stance at this point with weight on my left foot foot and that allows me to kind of Swing my shoulders and make solid contact so I’ll be here yeah and me kind of wrapping it that way swinging out to the right with it and you use the toe less resistance yeah I’m trying to get the the heel as high as I can that’s what Raymond Floyd used to always tell me yeah and then get your get your hand up there like that and stand as close as you can to it so and just hit little baby hooks yeah basically that feel weird to you no not really it’s a little closer than I normally yep but you’re also a lot taller too yeah but when you hook it it actually runs up that SL if I don’t put a hook spin on it won’t get up the hill correct yeah you like you using the bounce or Leading Edge I’m a bounce guy are yeah yeah I I think when I start chipping poorly I’ll start using too much of the Leading Edge and I kind of almost like the grip goes first and I start leading that Leading Edge yeah you see like like Jordan use the Leading Edge all the time all the time yeah yeah I’m more of a bounce guy yeah yeah awesome playing out a Bermuda it’s just it’s just so hard to trust that it’s going to come out the same every time especially out like just a little bit around just a little just a little bit like that I just like man I don’t know but this way I can you can just throw the toe in there and correct what I tend to see with a lot of amateurs is they set up reasonable but as they go to hit the golf ball they want to get it in the air and they fall back onto the right leg so essentially their center of gravity they’re staring them as they’re coming in to hit it is going backwards if this is going to go backwards you’re going to hit behind the ground and get that double hit so for me because in this Chip Shot you don’t have that much time to transfer your weight I like to see amateurs set themselves very much on their left leg so as you can see once I set up on my left side my sterer moves right on top of the ball or even left of the ball so watch what happens when I take a practice my practice swing is actually about 4 5 in left of the golf ball whereas most amateurs as they’re coming in in their practic swing is brushing the grass 8 in behind the ball if you continually practice like this you’re never going to get a good contact your hands are going to be very active all sorts of funny things are going to be happen you might get the knees going if you’re back here so you’re going to get a lot of this even have a fresh air like I just did there whereas if you sit on your left hand side and always make sure your practice swing is left if you’re chronic even making sure it’s a foot left of the ball once you’re on that left side sit up there then you can hit that nice quality strike so my hands being on the front side of the golf ball having the hand slightly higher than you would on a normal golf shot only because you’re a little bit closer now from there I’d like to feel most of my weight on my left ball on my foot to ensure that know I I I feel very comfortable chipping like this just because I like to have that descending low on on the golf ball so by feeling my weight on my left ball on my foot hands on the front side of the golf ball ensures that my hands are always going to be leading the club head into the golf ball so you don’t get in that motion what I do is I just break the wrist and I hold it going through now when I say I hold it what I’m doing is accelerating my hand now if you notice my arm and Club are going to form a straight line into the finish I’ll show you again now look here we have the arm and the club in a straight line that means at no point did the club travel faster than the arm we want that with the driver CU we’re trying to create distance but here we’re trying to control distance we’re trying to hit at the specific distance to the Target and the best way to do that is to have the arms and Club working at the same speed as we move the pin back and make it a 20 yard shot I want you to see that it’s exactly the same I set up the same square to the hole Club face is square I break the wrist going back and I accelerate into the Finish now as I get to 40 50 yard shots it’ll come up here and it might break slightly that’s not important what’s important is through impact the club and arm are traveling at the same speed sebie was probably the Magician of the short game he hit shots better than anybody else I’ve ever seen in my life hit shots that I had never even thought about seeing in my life but one of the things that savy taught me the most and it’s it’s remain to this day he said make love to your hands when you put it on the golf club more so in chipping than anything else and what I mean by that is you have to caress the grip of the golf club do not choke it do not White Knuckle it just caress it the more you have your hands soft on the grip the easier it is for you to accelerate through the ball so SEO BOS who’s not with us anymore gave me the greatest tip of all time that’s lasted to me to this day is make love to your hands when you put it on the golf club when you go to play a Chip Shot you have to hold the club with enough pressure to control it but don’t strangle the clap because the result of that is that you will create too much tension on the forearms and what happen you will lose a clap speed and you will swing too fast Stand Tall at the dress grip down the shaft a bit have the ball about in the center of your stands which should be square the swing is short and is more arms than hands there is no check on the shot the ball Will Roll and Roll on Landing all the way up to the flag remember here have your hands ahead of the ball at address and keep your left side firm throughout impact in chipping I don’t like to use the full length of the golf club I like the grip down on the golf club and keep it in the same position for all your chip shots so you have a basic same feel with the club head the other thing is grip pressure one of the common mistakes I see with a lot of poor chippers is how tightly they grip onto the golf club that leads into real stiff hands they get and very fast types of golf swings keep the grip pressure light you must feel feel the weight of the club head one of the key positions in being a good chipper is that you want the left hand to lead the club head into the impact area you want the left hand to be slightly ahead of the club head this is square up this is straight up this is left- hand leading try to brush the grass that will establish the bottom of your Ark then place the ball just at the beginning of the bottom of the Ark and hit it I play in a lot of prams and I see uh players they get a little nervous around the greens they know that they need to make up and down to save a shot or two so they start using their legs too much and we all know what happens when you use your legs you even come in you know too much in front of the ball or you even hit the ball thin so you really don’t get that nice uh connection so here is a little drill that I recommend just take your uh your left foot and you or leg I should say and put it over your your right leg like this and actually tightens up your hip quite a bit so you know I’m not going to be able to use my lower body here at all so what you will do here is really swing with the shoulders and you can see I’m standing very very still and uh it’s just a great little tip I think you can use to to work on your chipping very simply I think we all have a lot of a lot of instincts and what I would say to this they say well how hard should I hit I say well how hard do you throw it if I ask somebody to pick this ball say underhanded to that hole they would probably just instinctively do something like that say that’s about how hard you hit it yeah so I would say to them imagine just underhand it so if they’re here and they underhand it they get a pretty good role and you get a success the average player stands completely stationary in their legs and I want you to watch a little Motion in Jason’s legs just to give a little feel the right knee and left knee kind of kick forward a little but watch the pace of this swing you can see he’s picked out a spot he wants to land the ball on and that’s what he focuses on you don’t see a lot of RIS coock in this shot because it’s just a straightforward pitch and those are two perfect ones by the way do you see a lot of us on Wednesday try to help that ball yeah I I think the biggest thing is uh a lot of animators when they see this this shot they just see a flag and then they go in and and hit and swing away and just hit you got to pick your target try and land it on the target the best you can read the green and hopefully from there once it bounce and rolls hopefully it goes in the hole if you watch Jason set up to hit this he’s actually paying more attention to where he’s trying to land it than he is to the ball right we see the average person just kind of glance at their target and stare at the ball the ball’s not going anywhere he’s zoned into where he wants to land it now watch the Rhythm I think the I think the biggest thing is to try and for myself um is to try and match the practice swings up with how far I really need to hit my chip or pitch shot when you’re hitting that shot tiger come here for a sec I want to I want to get your thoughts too so when you’re hitting that shot there Rory you what are you trying to do with the face through impact so I try to I guess I’m trying to I’m not really thinking of the F I’m trying to release the club underneath the ball and get the shaft like back to Vertical at impact I guess so you really like release underneath it yeah cuz I can see your hands going under way but you having a very abbreviated swing when you’re hitting that that low spinner as well do you do the exact same technique was it like that no I try and cover it just a little bit with my body so have it open and try and cover it and then let it go at the same time yeah oh that’s got some nip on it you feel it in your chest so like you open your chest up I move it I move the chest and then I throw it at the same time so it’s it almost feels like a like yeah everything going almost like like a little the top sort of throw okay yeah I love yours because you’re so you’ve just got this the structure in your arm so good and it doesn’t break any you know I love that like out of bad lies like I I try to pretend I’m you I appreciate that man I um you get really wide yeah I got wide yeah I love that especially out of like rough if you got a buy okay getting low here though can you hit it draw that that way yeah no like with your Technique being wide like that like a draw spinner to here like hold it on the hill to this short one yeah so that the ball won’t release to the right with an open face I mean you’re going to have to go not Spanky like that you just talking about just a little bit like a draw like more draw spin than Fox spin so that I love that pretty good so you you like more of the inside feel compressing it on the inside right but unless I want to hit the the high one yeah I’m you’re on the outside of the ball yeah so normally you’re inside I’m on the inside pressing it a little bit down exactly okay and Rory what are you are you are you more of a I guess it depends on the shot I mean this is a this is a very I mean for me it a very simple shot I’m just I mean if anything yeah just a little on the inside and yeah so I think it it obviously determins on the shot that you play based on the on the wedge you have too correct and when I’m at I’m at home practicing I like to hit RW yeah CU why you know who was big into that trino what so what running green yeah but why why do you like hitting drawers because it’s easy to kind of rake across and and get it raiky and steep it’s it’s inconsistent that way exactly but trying to hit a it draws in like that oh that was actually shallow me out yeah yeah yeah I like to smother the ball a little bit take a little bounce off the club by putting the club back in my stance a little bit and making it a little bit sharper not so much finishing the shot as I do actually attacking the ball hitting down on it what that does is when the ball lands it it actually releases instead of checking the ball will release and then run almost like a seven9 I can make a sand wedge see I can chip a ball with a sand wedge and make it react like a 79 but you’ll notice that the hands the hands will stay in front of uh see it now watch the hands are still in the same position to where I finished I’m not here now you notice when you hit a shot hold the club and see where it’s at and I guarantee you you’ll be here and I’m still in this position I can actually watch this I can actually hit this ball hold the position right watch and come right back down and hit another one you see that and what does that do to the flight or the release of the ball it’ll release it won’t put as much spin on it you understand see you don’t people don’t understand you know what puts spin on the ball bounce bounce is what puts spin on the ball when you put a wedge down at 56° and you hit a golfball at the same moment that this bounce catches the ground the ball is on the club face and the club actually bounces into the ball and makes it spin up those grooves and that’s what puts the spin on it when you put your hands forward and you take the Loft off that club and make it a nine iron now you don’t have 14° of bounce on here you only have seven one of the things that I uh I like to teach people is that you know you can change the trajectory of your flight of your ball just by moving your grip around it’s kind of fun to do that now watch this I’m going to take my grip right here this is the normal grip like this and this is the normal that’s the normal height for this shot I’m hitting a little bit off the up up slope now if I want to hit go a little bit higher with it what I’ll do I’ll take my normal grip here and I take the left thumb and put it straight down the the straight down the shaft weakening that’s called a weakened left grip bring the right hand over like that s keep the face open now watch the difference in the in the ball flight yeah ball goes much higher just by changing your grip there that’s something to practice another thing I and then the opposite of that is put the full Harley on it the left hand put that left hand over here like like this like this right hand underneath like that but make sure that that that club that ball’s in the back of your stance now watch and you can make that same Club roll and as Henry cotton would say uh just try and chop the legs off so what what I’m trying to do is obviously I want to hit this High I’m going to open the club face as much as I can and uh use the bounds on my club and from that point on the ball is a little bit forward I’m pretty much right on on top of it I’m going to make a Big Arc I don’t want to lift this club up and drop it onto the ball because that would make me most likely blade it or hit it fat so I want to have a big swing Big Arc and come in shallow and that is how you hit that high flop shot you have a drill to show whether or not you’re properly using the bounce what is it well hopefully I can pull it s but U I’ll give you an example of the Leading Edge hitting I’m going to hit this T here with the Leading Edge this is the ball back and when you do it the te goes flying that’s the Leading Edge hitting it’d be really cool wouldn’t it if I could release the club enough to get the bottom of the club to tick the top of that tea and drive it into the ground and it’s the way I practice um just being able to engage that bounce brandle come on no I swear it’s kind of tricky but if I’m hitting and the te’s falling forward or springing out of the ground like that I’m not doing it right there it is right there so you just tick the tea and it it kind of drives it down which fun the back part of the club just hit that t drove it into the ground this very bottom part I mean and when you learn where the bottom of the club is it’s so liberating and it frees you up and it opens up a whole new world around the greens for you but then you can then be creative and use your imagination seier you know some of these all the Spaniards they look at the shots and they’d see three or four or five different ways to play it I like to show you one of the most difficult shots in golf we call it the [Music] floater let me show you how to do it first of all I open the club face then I move the ball a little bit forward wood more or less to the left Hill of the left feet then I put my wet a little bit more on the right side to create more Loft on the clap also I have my hands behind the ball too to create more even more Loft on the club face and then I take the club straight upright back and outside the line and then I go down into the ball and I try to keep my right hand as much as possible under and also inside the line and also I have to say that it’s important to hit it hard don’t be worri about hitting the ball too hard because the ball will never go too far okay let’s have a look
