ABOUT DANNY
———————–
Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!

I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.

On YouTube and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.

Be prepared though. If its a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble

I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

i got a really interesting stat from Shot Scope 
this week that said “Look it for the average golfer if you improve your Tee to green game by 
10% you will improve your score by only 0.02 shots but if you improve your short game within 50 yards 
of the green by 10% you’ll knock off a whopping 4.9 shots off your score that is how important 
understanding how to play chip shots around the greens is.” Now this week I had Mike come and see 
me and chipping was a disaster form of anxiety stress frustration you’ve probably seen it often 
fatting often thinning completely not knowing what to do all he wanted from me was a chipping 
technique that would guarantee contact time and time again just something that he could do so 
he can start enjoying this part of the game so I introduced him to a concept that I actually got 
from a friend of mine Joe Mayo now I was pretty good at sorting people’s shot game out but once he 
introduced me to this concept the speed at which I was able to improve my students went up immensely 
it’s absolutely incredible and I can’t wait to share it with you because it will transform your 
chipping from all shots around the green but before I get into the golf lesson if you’re new to 
the channel and this is one of the first lessons of mine please consider subscribing i release golf 
videos just like this one every single week to try and help you improve your game plus you never have 
to remember remember a thing everything I do here I’ll put into a free downloadable practice guide 
in the description box below so before I share this technique with you which I know you’re going 
to absolutely love there’s two things you need to know about chipping to start with for most chip 
shots around the green to make solid contact you want a descending blow on that ball you want 
to make sure you avoid the ground behind the golf ball and catch that ball solid it’s where 
you it’s just guaranteed strike and gets you a nice bit of spin to do that we want the bottom of 
the arc of the swing look here after the golf ball a lot of times people have shift this kind of 
bottom of the ark too far behind the golf ball and start grounding out way way too early the 
other thing you need to do you need to control the depth that this arc goes under the ground so 
you could get the bottom of the arc here there but it could go too deep under the ground if that 
happens we could start to catch the ground too deep and you start fatting it so the two things 
we need to control are the bottom of your arc if we can get that consistent and the depth of your 
ark you’re going to be a much much better chipper to do that you’re gonna need this technique so the 
first thing I’d like to say is look if you are one of those chippers that struggles with the short 
game and gets a little bit anxious you’re gonna This is really really going to help you massively 
really really will and it certainly did for Mike so Mike like a lot of players if you’re string 
with chipping the core element has generally comes from a golfer almost re thinking that they’ve 
got to get a lot of elevation on their chip shots and they as a byproduct that to some level 
you get a swing that tends to work around too much it tends to work a bit out to the right too much 
it tends to work under too much and that causes a whole host of problems thins fats you name 
it once you fatted it once you then avoid the ground then you start thinning it and it’s just 
a whole hodgepodge of lots and lots of different bad shots leading to lots of anxiety so how do we 
then create consistent contact time and time again great chipping starts with a great setup now what 
I want you to do is this most people are standing way too far away from the golf ball i like to 
get very very close to the golf ball and I do this for a a couple of reasons if you’re too far 
away from the ball this angle here in your wrist between the forearm ultimately the problem is if 
you got a lot of angle here that angle can come out here in the golf swing if that angle comes 
out it can go deep under the ground right because you’re extending look the radius of your circle 
with your rack so it can go under the ground so the very first thing I do with players is get them 
much much closer to the ball i get the hands um raised up much much more here so the shaft isn’t 
vertical but it’s much much higher you can see here look my wrist is ve much much flatter it’s 
not got this angle in here that’s a huge start the next thing I’ll do is I’ll move the ball back now 
a lot of people have frowned upon that so if you move the ball back that’s old-fashioned you’re 
going to fat it it isn’t it’s one of the best ways of guaranteeing great contact so my ball 
goes back in my stance my handle goes forward and my hands are up that’s simple as that then 
I’ll make sure that this section here the upper part of their chest or even better still get their 
nose looking look this side of the golf ball here so they they’re rather than most people that are 
back here are then get their nose looking ahead of the golf ball all these things are doing what 
they’re doing they’re shifting the bottom of the golf swing look so it’s guaranteed to be after 
the ball so you guarantee strike this is the first thing you need to do at setup you do that 
you tick the first box you’re almost there and I say almost because the next stage is this you can 
still screw it up from here now you’ll see I put a little stick here this stick here is basically 
going to monitor the plane or the arc that I swing on i like to see ferris wheel style swings i don’t 
like to see roundabouts this helps to improve my angle of attack going into that golf ball here 
if I start to go under this here I then start to swing out to the right i then start to flick 
the club around the corner in order try and get it back to target a whole host of things start 
can start to happen so how do we naturally now keep that club working up this kind of plane line 
here so got my ball set up here handle high from here all I’m going to do is I’m going to tilt 
my body towards the target here almost like I’m crunching my love handles in here and I’ve got a 
shoe crunching in here that takes the club look beautifully up this plane here from here all I’m 
going to do very very important is allow the club to come straight back down to the golf ball now 
a great image that Joe gave me here and it really is super super cool is to keep the thumbs feeling 
feeling like they’re pointing downwards so I’m not cocking up i’m keeping them pointing downwards 
again if I [ __ ] up too much I’m increasing this kind of angle here which can then come out 
makes it complicated if I just keep those thumbs down here and tilt this club works beautifully at 
the line and come straight back down into impact and that’s all it is so let’s start by hitting 
i’ll show you a couple of shots and then I’ll show you go through a couple of questions that 
often my students ask me while I’m doing this and can you see the check on that ball there and 
see the backspin guarantees strike every single time now when I’m doing this this is really 
important so when Mike did this to start with I said to him do it really slowly first so 
the first thing it is just try to do it with his arms i don’t want you to do that all we’re 
doing here look you’re setting the angle here we’re crunching the love handles and we’re going 
to do trace it up and then get the thumbs making sure they’re pointing downwards here trace 
it up point the thumbs down keep the thumbs pointing down all the way notice this there’s 
not loads of rotation going backwards all I’m doing is it’s I’m tilting back crunching those 
love handles pointing my thumbs down and you see maybe even my body’s almost coming up slightly 
as I’m striking this but I’m guaranteeing that ball first contact now after about half an hour 
of practicing this Mike’s short game and strike ramped up immensely it was so so good to see 
but like always he would ask me questions like “But what happens if you need a little bit more 
elevation Danny?” It’s a great question isn’t it because you do need more elevation around the 
greens well you don’t need to change very much again keep it incredibly simple so if I wanted 
more elevation all I would do is simply what is elevation it’s a little bit more loft so I would 
start to move the ball position maybe a little bit further forward i might even open my face but 
nothing else changes from here look all I’m going to do is the same principle i’m still going to 
sense crunch those love handles back allow the thumbs to come down here but because I’m going to 
catch it slightly later in the ark there’s more loft that ball will pop up a little bit higher so 
it’s not huge but you don’t need lots of elevation in golf right so I’ve pushed the ball a little 
bit further forward in my stance i’ve opened the face a little bit here i’m gonna work on this 
motion backwards and forwards thumbs down and away we go and you can see there look just pops 
up a little bit comes up with a little bit more spin that is as simple as that this is how I 
want you to chip most of the time around the greens you need to work on a system that’s going 
to guarantee strike when you guarantee strike it’s going to build up your confidence you’re going 
to enjoy chipping and Mike is well on his way now to being a good chipper of course he’s going 
to require practice with this but start small with this huge thanks to Joe for introducing to me 
this a few years ago um absolute legend but go and give it a try you’ll absolutely love it if 
you want to learn how then to take this moving to pitching so from maybe 30 to 80 yards click
