Marcus Westerberg Chipping Tips – Tick Tock Drill

Chipping is a part of the game that can save golfers loads of shots but will often cost them instead. Marcus Westerberg has a great drill for us to help us start improving.

 

Swing length and rhythm are important factors when improving your distance control and strike quality. Marcus Westerberg shows us the tick-tock chipping drill to help us improve it.

The tick-tock drill

When chipping, try to imagine your wedge as the pendulum in a grandfather clock. You want the wedge to travel the same distance back as though, with a smooth change of direction and easy rhythm.

A good drill for this is the tick-tock drill, where you say tick as you take the club back and tock on impact. Doing this will generally slow you down and make your stroke much smoother, which will help your distance control and can sometimes be the cause of strike issues.

To add another layer to the tick-tock drill, you want to try and hold your finish for 2 seconds before moving on to the next shot. This will further help your rhythm and also your balance.
