Tips from the Top

CPGA Golf Professional
Better Chips — Point Your Watch toward the Target (Right Handed Golfer. Just the Opposite for Lefties)
This is a simple
drill, but very effective. Simply imagine the back of the left wrist (or your watch) facing the target. As you follow through,
keep the face of your watch directed at the target. It will be natural for it to turn over to the left or to face upward (also
called “scooping/lifting”) as you go through the ball, but resist and keep pointing that wrist toward the target.
This drill is also great if you have a tendency to SCOOP OR LIFT with your longer clubs. Happy golfing! Any questions please
