Exercise: Ribbon Chipping Drill

  Print This Page  Send to a Friend
  • Get 10 feet of ribbon. Form it into a circle and place it three feet into the green, where you think the ball needs to land and release to the hole
  • Find an area 10 yards away from green to chip from
  • Begin chipping from that spot, aiming to land every shot in the ribbon
  • Once you’re comfortable from that spot, move the ribbon to another three-foot area and hit from there

Coaching Point 1: Hit a number of shots from each spot.

Coaching Point 2: If the shots are landing in the ribbon and rolling short or past the hole, move it to another part of the green so the ball will land in the circle and roll to the hole.

Benefit: You learn how large of a swing you need to fly the ball into the ribbon so it rolls next to the hole. You also learn if you’re missing because of the execution of your chip or because of how you read the green.
