Luke Bell is a teaching professional from Rudding Park Golf Club. In this video he talks us through some chipping tips, including the basic principles of chipping you need to follow in order to become more confident around the greens.

You need to have a shoulder width stance, have more weight on the lead side and a 60-40 weight distribution on the lead side.
