Nathalie Sheehan
A closed clubface in the backswing is a killer when chipping from tight lies. In this tip, Nathalie Sheehan teaches a handshake motion that opens the clubface and allows for better contact on chips shots.

Great tip for this shot - an such an easy analogy to remember! Thanks, Nathalie!
Great! Thanks!
Any chance of doing a video on green side rough? Tougher shot than off closely mown areas?
Easy to remember and EXACTLY what I needed!!! I have been trying to figure out the swing for such shots and am looking forward to using this technique!
Tried this today and it worked so well that my playing partner wanted to know what I was doing that caused such improvement. Shared the tip and it worked for him too! Not one chunk today. Thanks!!
Did you use the hinge tool?
Is this the opposite of what Joseph Mayo teaches (steep, keep clubface closed, etc.) for minimizing errors and movement in chipping?
