I suddenly found myself in a chipping rut and getting "back to basics" was an excellent reset point. This video is great for anyone learning or fixing their chip.

the 1st, 2nd and 3rd of that serie are ones of the best videos I have seen and helping me.

This handle movement v wrist flick was like a slap in the face. Improved my contact and consistency within 5 shots. Incredibly simple. Thank you very much

[TheMegansdad]

Very helpful series. Really, really appreciate how you blend the golfers view and feel into your lessons. Prevents second guessing. Keep them coming.

Nice work Chris, this video had everything I was looking for:
- great graphics that really showed me what you were talking about
- multiple flags to aim at
- love the idea of using the one swing and simply use different clubs (tools) to get different results
This is my new "go too" video for chipping, great stuff!

Shaved plenty of shots off my game by finally accepting that this method is the best way to go around the course with minimal practice. Not everyone has the time to develop that high lofted shot. Great to see you are highlighting this simpler method Chris!

I've watched this lesson several times before and I thought I understood the concept. I decided to makes notes today while watching again and realized the large volume of instruction this lesson possessed. Thank you so much Chris for such detailed and precise instructions!!

THIS IS IT! Thank you for your effort.

I am wondering If you can also show different ball positions in the rough and fairway, uphill, downhill, sloping left and right, obstacle in front. We only see videos how to swing, but very rare videos from the environment of the course.
Regards

Best tutorial on chipping and it even comments on some little but important justifications for what to ignore, and many of the why’s for chipping.

[jimsaddler]

This is a great video Chris! I am a 9 handicap, but looking this year to improve my chipping around the green. In the past, I always used a 54 or 58 degree wedge, but now I am experimenting with different clubs (like your video suggests) and finding success with it!

One setup and one swing is the easiest way to approach these knee knocker chips. Thanks for the refresher course!!

[MaccaWelland]

Chris. Great series. Im a fairly experienced 15 handicapper but will be taking a lot from these. Ive also shared these with a friend who has just started golf. Appreciate the effort involved in making these.

[grahamgodsell]

Thanks Chris, came across this video and have seen vastly improved chips! Would never have thought about the feet position, but this made dramatic changes.👍🏼

[jimjutras]

Great lesson .I learn so much from Cris about using different chipping clubs off the edge of the green... i I always thought one should use the same club I can' t wait to use these tips on the practice green..ss we say in French..merci beauvoup Chris!!!!

[midgeholloway]

Best pitching video lesson I have ever watched, great job!

[garrymeads]

Chris, love your instruction. Very succinct and thorough. This a good one to watch and practice every once in a while to keep you focused on the right things. Thanks

[shep]

Chris thank you. I used your elegant explanation today and couldnt miss - so much more simple & easy - saved four strokes yesterday at least. Cheers!

[johncreet]

Another great video, Chris. I already knew much of this, but your explanations of why you do all these things were exceptionally useful to me. For me, understanding is a key part of playing golf. Without understanding you have to memorise everything - which is a bit like "playing by numbers". Thanks. I look forward to the rest of the series.

[andylorna]

This is where I really fall down, duffing the shot, opening up the club face, you name it. Got some great pointers now and will let you know how it goes. Thanks.

[terryweller]

Good video with great instruction. My dad taught me this technique back in the 50s. Glad it's still being taught today.
