Stop dreading awkward dirt or mud lies around the green! Watch Anne Rollo demonstrate why using a lower-lofted club and a compact stroke saves you from chunking or blading your next chip.
Instructor Jane provides instructional guidance on hitting effective chip shots from difficult lies such as mud or hard pan near the green. The primary strategy focuses on taking loft off the club by selecting a 7-iron or 8-iron rather than a high-lofted wedge, which helps avoid bouncing off the turf or blading the ball.
Key technical adjustments include positioning the ball in the middle of the stance, leaning weight onto the lead foot, and choking down on the grip for control. The shot relies on a compact, shoulder-led motion with minimal wrist action to sweep underneath the ball and let it roll out.
