Golf Clubs – Chippers – The Secret Behind Chipping
Golf Clubs � Chippers � The Secret Behind Chipping
Learn how to be a good chipper with your golf club by reading our tips below.
Being a good chipper is not just about having the perfect golf technique, it's often the golf players with the most imagination who end up being better chippers with their golf clubs.
Good quality greenside chipping can only be achieved if you have selected the right golf club. With the correct club, you'll then gain the confidence to be able to focus solely on your shot. However, selecting the right club on the green is probably one of the hardest tasks for many golfers. Often golf players might bring several golf clubs onto the green to chip with, in fact it is common for golfers to take their entire bag onto the green as they are unable to carry the golf clubs individually. This in itself creates immediate hazard and confusion when attempting to start chipping.
Successful chippers only really need to take one golf club onto the green, although this has been disputed by many pro golfers over the years. However, if you get to know one club really well and how it feels to chip with this particular club, you're halfway to becoming a successful chipper.
Why Do We Need To Chip?
Chip shots are shots which are played from right off the green. Most golfers will be taught to get their golf ball onto the green as soon as possible so that it will roll into the hole. There is nothing wrong with this tactic and it would be flawless if it wasn't for one hazard � people are playing too many different lengths of chips along with too many different types of golf club. If you just choose one golf club to use as your chipper, you can then adjust for distance with the force of your swing.
The type of golf club you use can be any of the following, a 5,6,7,8,9 wedge or a sand wedge. It doesn't really matter which club you choose to chip with, its how you utilise that golf club which counts.
Mastering The Art of Being A Great Chipper
The key to becoming a great chipper is to start by practicing with two golf clubs, hitting short �bump and runs� from the fringe, then longer �bump and runs� from in front of the green. Out of the two golf clubs, decide which one you like better, can control better and also which club controls your spin and distance better. Start to practice with this particular golf club and in no time at all, you'll be a great chipper!
