CHIPPING basics

This is really the full swing technique but just to emphasize the importance of the right hand move I am classifying it as a chipping requirement. The reason is because it is very crucial to apply this instruction in chipping since it involves a mini swing and, therefore, errors are accentuated.

The right hand responsibility must only be to "apron-roll" the club head around and (clockwise in relation to the ground) towards the back - nothing else. It does not, it does not bring the club up. Bringing the club up is the responsibility of the torso (twisting upper body). The hit is also done by the unwinding torso.

Applying this technique to chipping results in creating the "slot" tantamount to the slot on the full swing. By the way, this also applies not only to the short game but to the full swing as well.
