Most golfers default to the same club for almost every chip shot. Cindy Miller breaks down a simple selection strategy, matching club choice to lie and landing spot, so you can keep the motion simple and control distance better.

Great video, Cindy! You refer to using a “chop shot” that is a wristy. What exactly do you mean, and how far back and forward would you recommend going with the chosen club in this situation? Is that always the same, assuming you choose a club appropriate for the desired distance and roll? Thank you.

Do you recommend trying to land the ball as soon as possible and have a longer run out vs flying it longer with a shorter run out? Thanks!
Come on Cindy! You did’t say one funny thing this time. I always count on you giving us a chuckle. But great tip!
How do you feel about using 7-9 for longer open chips to the green?
Great tip, Cindy. For some they may not know the difference between the wedges like “lob” vs “sand” so you may want to explain that next time. For me, I have a 56 that I use as a “sand” wedge and a 52 degree that I use more for chipping and short approaches, a U club (often called a Lob) that I use for an approach and sometimes a chip if I have a longer run on the green
