Easy Drill to Improve Chipping
A Quick Tip from Instructor Chuck Anderson

I bet you thought a pencil was only good to "write" with. Here's a way a pencil can get you on the "right" path to better chipping.

The most common cause for hitting a bad chip shot is the (right-handed) player's left arm and left wrist collapsing at impact. This causes loss of distance and directional control of the shot.

Hitting solid, accurate chip shots requires coming into impact with a flat left wrist. An easy way to learn this impact position is to try the "Left Wrist Pencil Drill."

	On your left wrist, stick an unsharpened pencil (or pen) under your watch band and extend it between your wrist and the back of your hand. This will automatically flatten the wrist.
	Take a few practice strokes and brush the grass with a slightly downward attack. Feel how the pencil prevents the release of your left wrist at impact.
	Hit some chips, making sure you contact the ball first with a slightly downward strike while brushing the grass after impact.
	This will probably feel very strange for some of you, especially those who have a tendency to "cup your wrists" or decelerate or try to "lift" the ball on chips.
	Stay with it and remember perfect practice makes perfect shots.
