The most common thing that causes poor contact in shots around the green is the hands and wrists trying to scoop the ball into the air. This scooping action results in punishing shots that blade over the green, or hit fat and fall short of the target. Your hands and wrists cause the shaft of the club to lean away from the target upon impact. This backwards-leaning shaft creates a thicker sole (bounce), which makes it difficult to hit the ball solidly. If you want to land a solid strike on the ball you must replace your scoop with a technique that creates a forwards-leaning shaft upon impact instead. The most effective training aid for achieving this is called The Punisher.

First, grip your chipping club normally, then grip a second club underneath the first one, close to the hosel or clubhead. The second grip should now be sticking out from underneath your left armpit. Try to keep the second shaft away from your left side as you follow through on your swing. If you are a scooper, the extended part of the club will punish you during the chipping motion by bumping into your side, giving you instant feedback! Note that you must always be careful not to take too long of a swing.

After getting rid of the scoop, you will succesfully eliminate the punishing fat and thin shots from your short game. If you need help, contact us to book your lesson here.
 
 
If you’re playing with a driver over 5 years old, then the opportunity for us to
add huge distance is on the table. Manufacturers no longer have to compromise
between forgiveness and other performance features. The result of lower spin for instance,
can be added distance and less deviation offline. There’s a win.
 

 
 

 
Never mind the 36 extra metres, the tee shots were straighter.
Bringing down spin also reduces the amount of deviation in ball flight.
 
 
There’s a Driver DNA – ball speed, launch angle, & spin rate. We need to match those when fitting you for a Driver.
How close is your Driver to your Launch DNA now? Do you have 20 metres or more of performance in the right DNA?
Come and see us. Let’s unlock your potential to thrill.
 
 
To lower your scoring, you must be a confident greenside player.
Without using your bounce it is difficult to make consistent contact to build that confidence.
Different coaches will teach different chipping techniques to different golfers,
depending on skill level and how much time they have to perfect their technique.
 
 
A ‘classic’ approach is to take up a stance with the hands forward and the ball back in our stance,
and then make contact with the ball with the hands still ahead. This method is simple to understand,
but requires perfect contact. Do you get to practise everyday?

If you can learn how to use your bounce it becomes easier to make solid contact, even if you’re stroke is slightly off.
It’s perfect for weekend golfers who don’t have the time to practise everyday.
 
 

Using the bounce on your wedge makes chipping off all lies a lot simpler.
Are you working with your wedge design?
