How To Set Up For Chip Shots
Ball Alignment
When swinging a club, the middle of your centre of gravity is routinely going to be the low position of the swing. Ensure you want to hit the ball on the way down and before you hit the ground, what this suggests is that you must move the ball barely behind center at address. What I suggest is to position the ball 2 inches behind your center. Keep this ball location consistent, by moving it further back or forward you will change your club angle at impact.
Hand Position
You want to practice your hand positioning so they will be in the same place at address for each chip shot that you make. You need your hands in front of the ball. If you can draw a line straight down from the point at which you are right fist sticks out the farthest, that line must drop just in front of the ball between your feet.
Weight Balance
When you setup for chip shots, you have got to make sure that your weight is 60% on the front foot than your back. This could further enhance your shot as you come down on the ball. It makes the low point of your swing a touch more towards the front foot, once again ensuring that you make crisp contact.
Club Alignment
When you play the ball back in your position the club face has a tendency to like to float open a little bit. Make an additional effort to ensure that you keep the club face aimed to your target.
A correct setup should make sure that you make more up and downs from just off of the green. By utilizing this technique for your setup you'll be in position to hit correct chip shots each and every time.
