Before Chipping Onto The Green Do This Simple Drill [Video]

0:00 | so I’ve just come off a chipping lesson

0:01 | with my dad he’s been really struggling

0:03 | around the greens it’s been really

0:04 | getting him down he’s been thinning him

0:06 | along the ground he’s in fact him he’s

0:07 | been even shanking them and his scores

0:09 | have been going up and up and up now

0:12 | probably just like you he doesn’t have

0:13 | loads of time at practice he finally

0:15 | doesn’t really want to practice I

0:16 | generally go straight on the golf course

0:17 | so I needed to give him something that

0:19 | he can do in the garden first okay to

0:22 | improve his strike and then one simple

0:23 | thing I actually gave him to take to the

0:25 | golf course the results have been

0:27 | amazing and he’s so nice to put a

0:29 | beautiful smile on his face I’m going to

0:31 | bring you in on that live lesson very

0:32 | very shortly because I think it could

0:33 | help you particularly if you’ve been

0:34 | struggling around the green now before I

0:37 | do get in the lesson if you’re new to

0:38 | the channels when your first videos of

0:39 | mine please consider subscribing I

0:41 | release videos just like this one every

0:43 | single week to try and help you improve

0:45 | your game plus you never have to

0:46 | remember a thing I’ll put everything I

0:47 | talk about in this video into a free

0:49 | download practice guide in the

0:51 | description box below so my dad began to

0:53 | strike shots just like that on a

0:55 | consistent basis now I didn’t plan on

0:58 | filming this session so I didn’t get

0:59 | loads of the footage but we started off

1:01 | in the garden first to improve the

1:03 | quality of strike and just like probably

1:05 | 90 of golfers he was basically making

1:08 | this mistake he wasn’t controlling two

1:12 | things the low point of his ark and the

1:15 | depth of his act what do I mean by that

1:17 | well look at this your golf club just

1:19 | like my dad’s whether it’s chipping or

1:21 | your full swing is always creating a

1:23 | circle like this okay now what my dad

1:26 | was doing he was he was creating the

1:28 | circle but this low point of the circle

1:30 | was too far behind the golf ball now

1:32 | this did a couple of things he would hit

1:34 | the ground where behind that would be

1:35 | his fat shot

1:36 | he would then sometimes hit the ground

1:39 | and the ball would come the club would

1:40 | come up like this and thin the ball

1:41 | along the ground okay he did one other

1:44 | thing and I’m going to show you when he

1:45 | shanked it in a second now I want your

1:48 | low point to be just ahead of the golf

1:52 | ball and that one of the easiest things

1:53 | I did with my dad to achieve this was

1:55 | really improve his setup first I then

1:59 | wanted to make him really really

2:00 | consistent with his ball Striker by

2:02 | changing one in-swing thing which he

2:04 | took him we took to the golf course okay

2:05 | so let me show you what we did so my dad

2:08 | doesn’t practice as much as he used to

2:10 | do and and I needed to give him

2:11 | something that was really really simple

2:13 | that he could take straight to a golf

2:15 | course I didn’t want to give him a lot

2:16 | of checkpoints to to work on so we

2:18 | started off by helping him improve the

2:20 | quality of his strike first and then we

2:22 | were we worked on the distance control

2:24 | and kind of like the consistency for the

2:26 | golf course in in part two so the first

2:29 | thing to get is uh the consistency of

2:31 | strike was basically set up his setup

2:33 | was really really bad he’s it less

2:36 | shoulders were too high I see this a lot

2:37 | you’ve been trying to get his weight

2:39 | forward but in doing so he pushed his

2:41 | weight forward and all this did was

2:42 | create even more angle with his

2:43 | shoulders what this does is it basically

2:46 | sends the low Point behind the golf ball

2:48 | your right shoulder’s too low you’re

2:49 | almost in scoop territory fat territory

2:52 | here behind the golf ball hitting up

2:54 | thin territory and the dreaded shank

2:56 | where my dad was which was this he was

2:58 | so far behind the ball that he had to

3:00 | reach for the ball that pushed the neck

3:02 | to the ball and he did some shocking

3:04 | Shanks so I knew he didn’t have I

3:07 | couldn’t give him loads of things to

3:08 | work on so how do I in a sense get him

3:11 | set up perfectly every time without a

3:12 | lot of checkpoints well I needed him

3:14 | look to get his hips and his shoulders

3:17 | right stacked on top of one another I

3:19 | needed his shoulders to be nice and

3:21 | level how do we do it with this simple

3:23 | exercise all I did got him to set up to

3:25 | the golf ball okay and I want you to do

3:27 | the same it’s a real simple exercise and

3:29 | I got him to move his Mass his torso

3:31 | over this side of the golf ball here and

3:34 | then move the club behind and that was

3:36 | it okay

3:39 | that’s it now the math is going ahead

3:41 | right now we’re talking now you play the

3:44 | shot

3:47 | you follow that immediately put his uh

3:50 | his body in a place where the low point

3:52 | now will be slightly just after the golf

3:54 | ball now yes if he really exaggerated it

3:57 | he’ll be come down too Steep and the

3:58 | ball would come off very very low if you

4:01 | did that he could just reduce it

4:02 | slightly okay but because he had been so

4:04 | much over here this really really works

4:07 | as a great exercise to steep in his

4:08 | angle of attack and improve the quality

4:10 | of his strike the other thing that we

4:12 | did and this was all done in the garden

4:13 | I’m going to actually bring you in on

4:15 | what we did on the golf course in a

4:16 | second because there’s one final piece

4:17 | of the jigsaw but we just did this in

4:19 | the garden to an instantly improve his

4:20 | strike I actually used a garden cam I

4:23 | put it about a club

4:26 | and a bit a little bit more than that a

4:27 | little bit of a club and a bit distance

4:29 | behind the golf ball and then all we did

4:32 | from here

4:33 | is get him to kind of what I like about

4:35 | this is before if he’s back here would

4:38 | hit the garden cane but by putting it

4:40 | back there and getting his mask now more

4:42 | over the top of the golf ball now he

4:44 | could create a slightly better angle of

4:45 | attack into that golf ball that low

4:48 | point of the hour look is much much more

4:49 | where the golf ball could be it’s felt a

4:52 | bit strange for him but immediately the

4:55 | strike was so much better

5:01 | however however he was still a little

5:05 | bit what I call hamsi now when you get

5:07 | very risky and handsy sometimes what

5:09 | happens is you are in a sense destroying

5:12 | potentially the depth that the ACT goes

5:15 | imagine here look okay we’re creating a

5:17 | circle now if I keep this angle in my

5:19 | right arm here like this I’m able to

5:21 | control the depth of this Arc I’m able

5:24 | to kind of control how much this club

5:27 | just bruises the ground but if you get

5:29 | very risky suddenly now that club is

5:32 | going into the ground it’s going too

5:34 | deep and that creates horrible fat shots

5:36 | so I gave him this simple simple

5:38 | exercise I’ll bring you on the lesson

5:39 | right now where we did it actually at

5:41 | the golf course to really improve the

5:44 | consistency so it’s right side helped

5:47 | him come through the shop beautifully

5:48 | well and he didn’t get too risky this

5:51 | gave him immense amount of consistency

5:53 | let’s go and check it out now this is my

5:55 | uh this is my

5:57 | Achilles heel is at the moment right

6:00 | I get to hear in one shot

6:02 | and contact the or four more shots to

6:05 | get in the hole okay I’ll shank it and

6:08 | then shank it again okay

6:09 | so hopefully now with this new

6:13 | stands

6:15 | uh it’s certainly going to help

6:16 | hopefully what club you got I’ve got my

6:19 | 60 degree

6:20 | okay so I would say here right so a 60

6:24 | degrees a club that is is

6:27 | quite risky to play a lot of the time

6:29 | right you don’t you know use it for

6:31 | really emergencies only right right so

6:33 | grab yourself a 56 for now right okay

6:36 | um particularly struggling with your

6:37 | chipping you don’t want to be going to

6:39 | bags and bags of Loft right so 56 is

6:41 | more than enough for this type of shot

6:43 | okay done it yep um now

6:46 | you’ve chosen your club right did you

6:49 | have you chosen the shot you’re going to

6:51 | play that’s well my intention is to go

6:53 | for the flag okay so if you take 50 so

6:55 | yeah okay I’m gonna go for height okay

6:58 | come on let’s show me the shot okay yeah

7:02 | and just do everything we worked on in

7:03 | the garden yeah okay do that same thing

7:06 | here yeah yep okay damn it

7:21 | just where I didn’t want to go

7:24 | so a bit like that yeah yeah

7:29 | so so if you look at this here from this

7:31 | angle even from even from behind here

7:33 | right

7:35 | look at look at how your body has

7:38 | completely stopped

7:40 | and I didn’t follow through that if you

7:42 | look at your body here yes all you’ve

7:44 | done is your body is completely Frozen

7:46 | yep I’m just gone

7:48 | well yeah there’s even no moving there

7:50 | so what you do your body’s just done

7:51 | this

7:52 | bang stop and then if you if everything

7:55 | stops you’ve only got one thing left

7:57 | that’s it for this yeah if you’ve

8:00 | stopped you’ve only got this

8:01 | yeah right so what we need to do is we

8:04 | need to get this right side this whole

8:07 | right side of yours look continuing to

8:09 | go through the shot so the right wrist

8:12 | doesn’t break down because as soon as

8:14 | the bricks come on anywhere here like if

8:16 | I put a bricks on here what’s gonna

8:18 | happen yeah flick that gets fried yeah

8:20 | right and that’s when the fats and

8:22 | things and all kinds of stuff come on

8:23 | right yeah so what we want to do is get

8:24 | you you set up really good that much

8:26 | better than before but now I want to

8:27 | continue that right side going through

8:30 | the shot okay and I’m going to give you

8:32 | a little drill for this one actually

8:33 | this is kind of simple so I’m going to

8:35 | grab like um let’s grab a seven iron

8:37 | watch this pause there pause just put

8:39 | your foot underneath this for a second

8:41 | oh good don’t it yeah you put yeah yes

8:43 | so that’s it underneath it now when you

8:46 | what I won’t do now is so when you’ve

8:47 | got a lot of weight on this right side

8:49 | that stairs up in the air right what I

8:51 | want to do now let’s go through the shot

8:52 | so that that’s it so it comes down

8:54 | follow it’s a great way of getting that

8:56 | right side

8:58 | through that shot

8:59 | keep going to have another practice

9:05 | and again

9:11 | right good so what I’m going to do now

9:13 | is if you’ve got the golf ball you get

9:14 | you get that feeling yes okay yeah so if

9:17 | we get off that again okay put that

9:19 | underneath for a second

9:21 | okay

9:23 | you can move the ball around if you like

9:24 | move it whilst there it is that better

9:26 | yeah feel comfortable there a bit

9:28 | further back further back yeah okay cool

9:31 | so when you’re ready hang on a second

9:34 | okay

9:41 | now that’s better that’s a bit different

9:43 | isn’t it yeah that was wonderful yeah

9:45 | yeah just that little moment yeah well

9:48 | because oh yeah

9:50 | guys the club through yeah what you want

9:52 | to do is you in order to be consistent

9:54 | you need the body to help you with it

9:57 | and keep moving otherwise you become

9:58 | risky and handsy yeah so just a little

10:00 | simple exercise like this it just gives

10:01 | you feedback yeah as to are you actually

10:03 | getting through that shot yeah all right

10:05 | yeah

10:14 | you imagine that Dad how many shots

10:17 | you’ll serve

10:18 | when that’s right you kind of like you

10:21 | could get up and down like that yeah you

10:23 | know a good ship there so I get it a

10:25 | good ship there yeah and you’ve just

10:27 | made

10:28 | that felt so nice having that weight

10:31 | and just keep moving just keep moving

10:32 | just keep moving all the time and even

10:35 | on the smallest of chips obviously on

10:37 | the full swing you move even more you

10:38 | keep moving but and even the smallest

10:40 | chips look we’re still moving gently

10:42 | through yes but when people start

10:44 | getting smaller and smaller because they

10:46 | get nervous they start to

10:47 | that was me yeah that’s me

10:50 | there you go

10:52 | so as you can see chipping doesn’t have

10:55 | to be too complicated control the depth

10:57 | of the eye control where that low point

10:59 | is and have a technique that kind of

11:01 | does this on a consistent basis and do a

11:03 | little bit of practice and I promise you

11:04 | you too will start to improve the

11:06 | consistency of your chipping I hope you
