How do you like your chips?

There are many different theories on how to chip in golf. Some golfers use mainly one club for all their chips, others use many different clubs. My personal preference is the latter.

Going back a few years ago when the equipment technology wasn’t as good as it is now, golfers were required to manipulate the clubs to accomplish a wider variety of golf shots.

These days there are several options available to us for example, lob wedges, gap wedges, rescue woods and for some there are even chippers in today’s market.

Before you decide if these clubs are of value to you, you need to know how and when to play each club. Remembering there is not a right and wrong way to get a golf ball around the golf course and this is advice.

There are 3 types of golfers, these are as follows –

[if !supportLists]1. [endif]The person who likes the look of a fancy high shot which doesn’t often work but when it does it looks great, so they insist of trying to do this all the time.

[if !supportLists]2. [endif]The person who only knows how to play one type of shot so tries to avoid playing the other as much as possible.

[if !supportLists]3. [endif]Finally, the third person who will play any shot which will likely produce the best result no matter how pretty or ugly the shot may be.

It’s safe to say the third option above will be the better golfer. Golf is about one number. That number being the number on your scorecard at the end of the round.
