Chunking chip shots?

Either you slow down into impact or you try and flip the ball up with you hands/wrists.
Take more loft, shorten the backswing and try and hit the ball low

I did (admittedly belatedly) say thank you. Most of the advice was about the mechanics of chipping, most of which I was doing anyway, but my real problem was the pace of my chipping stroke, which is harder to describe in words. :mmm:


You mean like Bob did?

Manners cost nothing.
 
OP's post #8

For information, I seem to have cured the problem partly by having my hands a bit more forward at address, but mostly by concentrating on making a smooth and rhythmical swing. I think I was worrying too much about the mechanics!

(bobmac's advice which also spoke to an arrhythmical stroke was post #2)


part of an answer in post #7

with more active arms/wrists/hands gets a ways too steep too long going back coming back down steep slows up some fearing too much speed & pace .........

........ centered chest rotation is the control engine so a similar pace of stroke, back & through, stroke 'feeling' equidistant as long as the head stays quiet no lateral motion - manage that good & no chunks (or thins)
