Tom Stickney – A Top 100 Golf Teacher

In this week's I want to talk to you about how to take your hands out of your chipping motion. All too often I see this people use their hands and when they use their hands we know we're going to get very inconsistent results when it comes to how the ball rolls out and how far it goes. A great drill to do is to set up in your chipping motion and just use your right hand you can see there's a bend in my rear wrist there's a V. form right here. If that V. collapses as we see right here I've used my hands too much. I want to hit some shots where I set up and I keep that bend and that V. in tact and that particular little motion right there will take your hands out of the chipping stroke. It will make you a lot more consistent because once we get back into our full motion we still see that bend in the wrist and we still see that right here. When both hands on the golf club and if you can do that you'll be a lot more consistent around the greens and you'll get up and down more often than not.
