Hey Shawn,
Thanks for your content:)
Trying to practice the axe drill on chipping I have noticed that the angle between my arms and the shaft of the club has changed dramatically. In my backswing before my club was more one the blue line position(see attached pic), now with the axe drill my club is more on the green line and I feel the weight of the arms club unit much better 🙂

Good stuff! 👍👍
Shawn. I have always chipped reasonably well with ball about centred using the bounce of the club. I like your method of chipping using the low point as the measure for ball position and look forward to working on this method. However, when I have been chipping previously, without warning, my left hand grip would go vice like on the downswing and I would chunk it. How can I avoid this with your chipping method?
Thanks,
Anthony
Hi Anthony! Your brain does not have an evil side to it ready to snatch the club and sabotage your chip shots!!! Your issues can always be traced back to the thoughts your were having just before you made your swing!!
-were you getting ready to use the weight of the arms and club to cut through a dandelion stem along the ground into the direction of the intermediate point and did you feel you had the right amount of momentum to land the ball on the spot you needed to to then roll into the hole?
-or did you see a ball and wanted to make sure you did not chunk it?
1-always always always see, feel and hear what you want with the flight plan
2-make your prediction: When you let the weight of the arms cut the grass in the direction of the intermediate point, does it feel like the stem of the dandelion will get cut first and then the grass in front of it after?
3-Goldie locks the amount of momentum if you are not sure to get rid of any possible interference in the swing.
4-stay with the task at all costs, make your observations after the fact
Shawn,
Much appreciated.
Anthony
