Chipping from tight lies: The main points

The beauty of this drill is in its simplicity. First, find a tight area of grass and place two coins and a ball on the ground a few inches apart in a line pointing away from you.

From here, address the first coin with the goal of just clipping it off the top of the grass. By hitting at something other than a ball, people often feel more comfortable.

Want to learn what to do from here? You’ll have to watch the video…
