Learn the short shot

Choose a landing area and observe how the ball rolls.

A chip combines a short flight with roll toward the hole. Look at the lie, the landing area and the space available. On a practice area, observe what happens with a small, controlled motion before adding more length.

The linked demonstration explains a starting technique. Practise where short shots are permitted, with a clear area around you. Club choice and the ground affect the result; no single shot fits every lie.
