    I’m a 7 handicap golfer, but could never improve my chipping, this is an absolute eye opener. Can’t believe how simple the corrections are; soft grip pressure, narrow stance, slow motion longer backswing and checkpoint on the follow through.
    UNBELIEVABLE!!
    Thank you so very much!

      By not telling you earlier, other pros have been getting you back for more regular lessons. They never fix a problem, just like a doctor will not cure your habitual faults, as you can keep coming back for more and more advice or cures.

      Probably helped you to focus on process too and not outcome. Focus on outcome creates fear and either yips or a tentative stroke. Confidence is everything, however that is achieved; new wedge, new putter, new method ... whatever. Keeping it going is the challenge! 🤣

    Ive gotta say it was eerie hearing you talk about yr chipping bcos Im currently going thru just that.... thank you for yr honesty.
    I think as a good player its sometimes embarrassing to admit that we have no clue & when we can hit great drives & irons but dread the 40yd & closer shot it can really do ones head in.

      I have Bobby jones on dvd from 1931 instructional video for all clubs, his most lofted club was a niblick basically a 9 iron, he could spin it on a dime or make it run out, in a bunker he could hit low and run or high and stop in the place it hit. They walked on the ball buried and he hit 9 to couple feet. Those days they chipped with several clubs. Some of this looks very similar to how bobby pitched in certain situations. In a match play the stymie rule was in and he chipped over another ball into the cup. Those days you couldn't lift clean and place a ball anywhere even on the green.

    Rick this is one of your very best YT offerings to date, I have found my chipping game in much the same place as you started and being able to watch you rapidly progress to much better fundamentals under such expert tutelage was a treat and extremely helpful.. I cant wait to get back out and work on what I saw. Thanks from Oregon, USA

    Rick - THANK YOU! I TOTALLY relate to your story - I'm 61 yrs old, an 8 hc (single figures since I was 15-yrs old) and have had the yips for many, many, many, many years. When I was a kid I was great at chipping and now have absolutely NO IDEA what I'm doing and have lost total confidence. In fact, my mind goes blank!! A mixture of fear and total embarrassment. Bunkers? Happy as a clam. Anywhere near the green? Double bogie! I'm going out to play this afternoon and will put the "stock chip" process into practice and stick with it - pivot around front leg/hip, grip light and swing sloooooow. Wish me luck!

    If you need help getting a more rotational swing and being less pully with the hands, I recommend either putting your feet together, or putting a towel under both arm pits. Since doing these drills, my swing has become more rotational, I’m not stalling at impact as much, and I’m able to put the club in the holster more easily.
    Then I came across Dan and it all started making sense. Him and Padraig have helped my short game the most. I noticed the other day that my chipping is at its best when I use the bounce correctly; I’m able to hit it a bit fat and my ball ends up where I want it to. Dan echoed all of this and really clarified things for me. He’s the man.

  • @jeffwest7995
    @jeffwest7995 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am a 3 handicap that has been suffering with the chipping "yips" for about 3 years now. I suffered from the same short swing and pulling too much on the handle without letting the bounce work. It has gotten better lately due to some good instruction, but this is by far the best video I have ever seen on the subject!! I feel like I just got a $200 lesson for free. Thanks so much. Normally I don't like hour long instruction videos, but I may watch this one several more times. Perfect job!

    This is one of the best instructional videos I've seen, in an area I've struggled with on and off for a few years. Very similar to Rick, got very twitchy on certain lies, mainly uphill lies to a green or if the green is above me. My short game used to be solid, then something occurred on the course that gave me a yippy sensation in certain spots. Went out to try a few bits today, mainly the longer, slower swing and trying to get to Release 1, as I can be quite drivey too. Then tried keeping my left arm tight against me (the holding the arm and thumb on chest drill) and getting to Release 2, on a tight pin... this was working well! Just finding time to practice in between work, but promising signs! Thanks to Rick and Dan!

    I honestly was watching laying down on my couch and found myself getting up 10 times throughout the video swinging my 54 degree wedge as if I was there.

    This is the third time I've watched this video all the way through since it's been uploaded. This might be one of the best (If not the best) lessons on TH-cam. I've implemented things from this lesson carefully a little bit at a time each time I go to my local range/putting green to practice my short game. I have closed my groupings to the pin from various distances away by about 3-4 feet and I am much MUCH more consistent from different lies. I broke 85 for the first time and I owe it to this video and most of all your channel Rick! Mr. Grieves you are a legend!!

    Freaking B-I-N-G-O was his name oh. Love it. Loved it so much went to my local park later after dinner and was just knocking them from 52*,56*,58* (I don’t run a 60* to scared, but maybe not anymore). I’d say 10% were strugglers, but the rest… unbelievable. Awesome awesome thank you.

    As a mid handicap golfer (13) this has to be one of the best instructional videos I have seen. Of course Rick is a PGA golfer and will pick us up quicker than me but I feel most of my shots are lost around the green. When you play off 13 you don’t hit many green in regulation and chipping is gold to becoming a single handicap golfer. Thanks Dan and Rick for putting this content out…
