Struggling Around the Greens? Fix Your Chipping

If you want to lower your scores fast… start around the greens.
Most golfers lose 3–5 strokes per round from poor chips:

❌ Chunked shots

❌ Thin bladed wedges

❌ Inconsistent contact

But great chippers all have one thing in common:
Connection. Structure. And a consistent strike.
This week, we’re highlighting three training aids that help golfers build a reliable short game.
Today, we start with one of the most powerful fundamentals in golf…

Stay Connected Through the Chip

The Compression Ball trains your arms and body to work together — the key to solid contact.
When placed between your forearms, it teaches you to keep your arms connected to your body during the swing, improving strike quality and control

Why this matters for chipping:

• Eliminates “flippy” hands
• Promotes chest-driven motion
• Improves ball-first contact
• Creates more consistent distance control

Simple Drill

Place the Compression Ball between your forearms.
Hit 10 short chip shots.
Focus on rotating your chest while keeping the ball in place.

That instant feedback helps build a repeatable motion.
