What To Spend Time On When Chipping In The House

Most golfers don’t like to practice and no golfer likes to play when it’s pouring down rain or when it’s cold. So practicing when the weather isn’t nice is nearly out of the question. What do you do then if you live in an area where winters last for a couple of months and it’s too cold to head out to the course? Well, you can keep your short game sharpened with only a few minutes a day working on your chipping. Here is how I practice chipping inside:

If you are not a great chipper to being with, then most likely you need to develop a better address position. A proper address will make it simple for you to make a great swing on the ball. A bad one will cause you to make alterations during your swing to get back on track. Sound like a really bad idea? That is because it is.

The Simple Way to Practice Your Set up IndoorsIndoors

It all starts with your aim. Check to make sure that your club face is pointing square to your target. On chip shots you have an open stance, so for a right-handed golfer your shoulders, hips, knees, and feet will all be facing left of your target.

Next, confirm your ball position is correct. You’ve got to hit the ball on your downswing. Don’t try and establish contact with the ball when you’re on the way up, or at some magical point where you downswing and upswing meet. How does one do this? By placing the ball 2 inches back of the center of your stance. You will not have any option but to hit the ball on the way down or move awkwardly to keep yourself from making a proper swing.

Your weight distribution is the final piece of the puzzle. Ensure that 60% of your weight is on your front foot, while 40% of your weight is on your back. Again, this ensures that you hit the ball coming at a downward angle.
