The Short Golf Shot: Mastering Two Essential Rules


Summary

Many golfers struggle with consistency in their short golf shots due to unnecessary movements. This guide outlines two crucial rules to enhance your technique and precision in chipping.

Article Body


When executing a short golf shot, beginners often make the mistake of moving their legs and lifting their heels, resulting in a lack of control and accuracy. To improve your short game, focus on minimizing unnecessary movements.

Rule 1: Stabilize Your Lower Body

Avoid consciously moving your lower body during the swing. Keeping your legs stable creates a foundation of firmness for delicate shots. As you swing smoothly, your legs will move naturally, but without intentional input. A subtle knee action will occur, but your heels should remain grounded. This stability is key to achieving consistent ball striking.

Rule 2: Adjust Your Club Path

If you're struggling with inconsistent shots, such as hitting behind the ball, consider adjusting your club path. I once faced this issue, hitting bad shot after bad shot until a fellow golfer kindly offered advice. Instead of taking the club back in a direct line from the ball, try taking it slightly inside the line. This minor adjustment can lead to significant improvement, as it did for me.

Remember, if your ball striking and consistency are not problematic, stick with what works for you. Always keep your eye on the ball and avoid lifting your head until the shot is well underway.
