The Basics of the Chip

Weight on the left, ball set back, landing spot on the green: a step-by-step guide to the standard chip shot to get you off to a good start.

Guitar, top, shank: Ensuring a Good Connection

Hands low on the grip, wrists cocked and then held steady, finish with the chest facing the target: solutions for missed shots.

Choosing a Club and a Place to Stay

From a 60° wedge to a 9-iron: visualize where the ball lands and how far it rolls to choose the right club.

Chip up, chip down, chip that slows down

Open face, back-of-the-club shot, hands forward: the pros' techniques for lifting, lowering, or slowing the ball.

Difficult chips on lees

Tight lie, thick rough, ball buried: assess the lie first, then adjust your swing like Tiger, Lowry, or Adam Scott.

Insights from the Pros

Pre-shot routines, training sessions, and the short game philosophy of Rose, Fleetwood, Pavon, Matsuyama, and DeChambeau.

A chip shot is played like a short putt: shift your weight forward, position the ball toward the back of your stance, keep your hands in front, and choose your landing spot before taking the shot. Choosing the right wedge and reading the lie do the rest.
