The Basics of the Rolled Chip

Ball toward the right foot, weight on the left, hands in front, and triangle maintained: the simple motion that rolls the ball toward the hole.

Choosing a Club and a Place to Stay

Read a chip like a putt, decide where to land the ball, and then choose the right club: a wedge, a 7-iron, or even a hybrid from the edge of the green.

Wedge Shots Around the Green

A bump-and-run shot off the shoulders, a short lift onto a firm, fast green: wedge options when you need to control both flight and roll.

When there's no need to lift the ball, let it roll: a slightly open iron, a ball positioned back on the face, and a putting stroke make for the safest shot around the green.
