  1. @iVanHalen666 Thanks for the nice comments. Now, there are at lease 2 of us
    that know what a “Chile Dip” shot is. Haha. I’m gonna take you up on the
    Canaries invite. Ross

  2. Check 3 things. 1. If you are bending down to the ball. You must sit
    athletically (like a quarterback). 2. The ball is sitting up a bit and you
    are setting up with the club below or lower than the ball. Sit down just
    enough so the club head is off the ground and at same level as the ball.
    3. You are using your hands to hit the ball. Setup shaft in line with front
    arm, and use only your shoulders to lead the handle of the club through. If
    it’s real long chip, use a pitch shot (rotate). Ross

  3. Really good advice, I have been playing for 2 years and always struggle on
    what to do when chipping, this just clears it up for me, thx

  4. From the Canary Islands (Spain) Spot on Ross, your tips are magnificient.
    You’re absolutely right about the chili dip shots… I’ve been chipping
    since I started to play rolling my wrists and it has always costed me awful
    results. If that wasn’t enough, I almost developed a sort of ‘chip in’
    technique which is more like a quarter swing shot than what you teach here.
    In short… thanks a lot. Anytime you drop by the Canaries, let’s play a
    round together.

  5. @misemanu I agree totally and teach only that move but. that is called
    pitching, when the hips engage. I have written much about that move in my
    blog. Learning to use large muscles athletically to control the the golf
    swing is key to all golf shots. Unwinding from ground up, is the key to
    consistency. This video is 4 years old and is about chipping. Many still
    like to chip and this helps them. Read my earlier response below to
    blueterrace about hips.

  6. Yes! Absolutely! Nothing except the front shoulder moves in putting. Play
    the ball just inside the front foot, Shaft must lead the club face slightly
    at setup, lock wrists!, lock lower body and hips, and then use only your
    front shoulder to push down then pull up. Everything rotates around the
    back of your neck. Remember nothing moves, no elbows, hips, wrists. Just
    push down, then pull up using front shoulder.

  7. I have so much enjoyed every video. After watching your chipping video, I
    went straight to the course I’ve been playing on. I love the drag in front
    of the ball and keeping the wrists forward seems to enable this drag, now I
    only need to master it. I will send you a video of my swing when I am able.
    However, can you please post a sand shot. And I love your voice, it is so
    relaxing. Thanks, John Sparkman

  8. @katiekirwan1 I like how you think. If you’ve been watching golf this week,
    not everyone hits the green. There has been some chipping, pitching and
    scrambling going on for sure. I think you might need to have this shot in
    your bag just in case…. Ross

  9. @blueterrace Easy, but you need to add one thing… start the downswing
    using your hips and keep unwinding and let your turn lead the handle
    through impact. Works great!! Use the mass of your body turn to bring the
    ball out (not your hands) and you will be much more consistent. Keep the
    shaft inline with your front arm…maintain the club face and just turn. As
    long as you do not let your hands open the club face… the ball comes
    right out, at the target and at the distance you perceive.

  10. @Sparkmansongs Thanks for the nice comments. I’ll put a bunker shot on my
    to do list for sure. I also have a couple of different iPhone apps coming
    too.

  11. what a nice calm soothing voice ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. split my blood
    pressure in half after leaving the course with every pitch and chip shot
    shanked. i have been playing this game way too long too forget simple
    things but after watching this i now know i was all wrists today and no
    shoulders. thank you gracias domo arigoto and god bless you.

  12. I just finished watching Phil Micklesons ”secrets of the short game”
    where Phil stated most great chippers almost always break their wrists at
    impact when chipping from the fringe and just beond……your way is more
    comfortable for me , but I have been studdering and hesitating the shot
    resulting in sculled shots that shoot accross the green…..so now im
    really confused as to witch direction to go , practice the wrist bending of
    the no 1 player in golf or go back to the stiff wrist arm …?
