Stop Scooping Your Chips!
If you're trying to help the ball into the air, you're probably hurting your score.
The biggest mistake I see golfers make around the green is trying to scoop or flip the club under the ball. It feels right—but it's exactly the opposite of what creates solid contact.
Great chippers don't lift the ball. They let the loft of the club do the work. The club strikes the ball first, then the turf, producing clean contact, predictable distance, and the spin that helps the ball stop on the green.
Research with launch monitors has shown that quality chip shots are created with a slightly descending angle of attack and a low point that occurs after the golf ball. That's why setup and weight distribution matter so much.
That's where the CardioGolf® Fit Wedge™ comes in.
Developed by LPGA Master Teaching Professional Karen Palacios-Jansen, the Fit Wedge™ gives you instant feedback and trains the proper impact position so you stop flipping and start compressing your chip shots.
With the Fit Wedge™, you'll learn to:
Shift more pressure to your lead side for better contact
Create the correct descending angle of attack
Improve your alignment and swing path
Eliminate scooping and flipping through impact
Hit crisp, consistent chip shots with better distance control and spin
Practice it at home or on the range, and you'll build the kind of contact that lowers scores.
Stop trying to lift the ball. Learn to strike it.
