Match your swing length back and through
Quitting on the ball is one of the most common chipping faults — keeping the same length on both sides of the swing helps you strike the ball cleanly every time.
Keep your weight left and keep it there
Shifting weight back through the shot causes the dreaded fat or thin — staying left throughout gives you a solid, consistent strike.
Rotate your chest to the target with the handle leading
Trying to scoop or lift the ball into the air leads to poor contact — let your chest rotation and a forward-leaning shaft do the work instead.
