Master the Spin or Release Chip: Easy as 1 2 3 with 3 Simple Cups!'

Показать описание

Want to control your golf shots like a pro? The path your club takes through impact can make all the difference. Using the simple three-cup drill, you can master three key swing paths—inside-out, outside-in, and in-to-square-to-in—that dramatically affect your ball's spin, flight, and release.

1. Inside-Out Path Feeling: Maximise Release

What It Does: The club moves from inside the target line and swings outward. This path lowers dynamic loft, reducing spin and creating a penetrating ball flight that rolls out more on the green.

When to Use: Perfect for shots where you need extra roll after landing, like long approaches.

Cup Drill: Set up cups to guide your swing from inside to outside, feeling you will collect the outer cup of the three.

2. Outside-In Path: Spin It to Win It

What It Does: The club cuts across the ball from outside the target line. This path increases spin, resulting in a higher, softer shot that stops quickly on the green.

When to Use: Ideal for tight pins where you need the ball to stop dead, avoiding any unwanted roll.

Cup Drill: Arrange cups to practice collecting the cup nearest to you.

3. In-to-Square-to-In Path: Straight and True

What It Does: The club travels from slightly inside, squares up at impact, and returns inside. This balanced path produces a straight shot with moderate spin and predictable rollout.

When to Use: Best for accuracy when you need a straight shot that stays on line.

Cup Drill: Position cups to guide a square, use a neutral path to collect the centre of the three cups.
