Golf slide...

took a chipping lesson Tuesday.

darby's chipping tips:

1. ALWAYS keep you hands in front of the ball... ALWAYS.. Over do it at first..

2. Unless you have a ton of practice time, always chip with the same club.

3. Loose, loose grip for soft, delicate shots... Firm grip for low runners or spinners.

4. Most importantly... relax.. be brave.

:: be brave ::

In chipping, I have found this single thought to lead to drastically lower scores.
You will find yourself, overall, putting from shorter distances.

Hands ahead - picked up an old Hubie Green tip that promotes it to the nth degree



<> always chip with the same club <>

which is what I have decided to do (46 degree wedge) and it seems to be working...need to transfer it to the course.

Been practricing in my side yard. I went to a course and practiced today onto their putting green.(I was the only one there - too cold). Good session. Gotta luv it !

laid a towel dowan at various distances...pattern was more oval than circular. But I was pleased with the distance. Move the ball up in my stance and the chip turned into a pitch.
Am I over the yips ? don't know till I start playing again.
