The ‘Bump and Run’ Chip – Less Airtime, More Roll

What's your 'Go To'' club around the greens? Kristin Walla shows the different options for getting that scorecard saving up and down!
Chipping - The 'Bump and Run'
Chipping – The 'Bump and Run'

What’s your “go to” club for around the greens?

The biggest thing I find in my amateur students is this:
Using their arms too much! it’s tough because you’re holding onto the club with your arms, but the key is to move as a singular unit with little to no separation or hinging until you get to the 58° wedge.

Practice with the butt end of the club sticking in your belly, making strokes to maintain the triangle shape as you rock your shoulders in unison.

Try not to overthink your technique because it ruins your confidence and your distance perception.

Focus more on the target and less on the ball … Always.
