Learn the proper technique and club selection to avoid the chunky chip shot from a tight lie.
I’m going to show you a very easy way to hit a very difficult golf shot this is about a 15 yard Chip Shot working up the hill it’s very soft all the water when it drains off this green comes down this Hillside the grass is growing into you
It’s a very tight lie most golfers will try to employ wedge for this shot that’s why you see all the divots here this Leading Edge is too sharp once it goes into that ground it stops let’s use a fivewood or a hybrid it’s very safe shot no sharp Leading

Stroke with a fivewood or a hybrid the ball will be in the air 6 or 8 ft and then tumble up by the hole a putter only has 3 or 4 degrees Loft it’s going to bounce too much it’s going to be hard to control the distance on that shot so try
The fivewood or the hybrid play it like a putter you won’t be the next person to make that divot
