The Chipping Secret Jason Day Swears By ⛳🔥 #golf #golftips #golfshorts
dead hand chipping. In my opinion, there’s one thing that is more important than most of the other techniques within that dead hand uh chipping technique. Um if people don’t know what dead hand chipping is is that you take a lot of the risk out of the chipping technique. Now granted, you do a lot lot of it through rotation. So when I’m chipping and I’ve got towel under my arms, it’s easy for me to rotate, keep everything together. So this is the engine. This is what moves. And then your arms, hands, club go along for the ride. And you got to make sure that when you do it that the the hands and arms and clubs stay out in

I like this approach – it’s kinda like a single plane swing technique. I like “single plane” because it prompts my body rotation rather than getting too “armsy”.
J Day has always had such a good touch and technique around the greens. I love that he's taken to YT and teaching his craft.
What does he know?…..lol
So no hinge and hold?
Does not work in deep rough but is just like putting out of a fairway or collar
Every golfer of any skill level should watch this, practice and enjoy how simplistic this is. Share this with anyone struggling around the green. 👌 👏 👍
g-day mate
you bloody rippa
Jason Day is spot on. My 1st attempt at a dead hand/arm pitch was an eagle over a bunker. Great technique!
I'm fairly armsy, wristy when chipping and it's the best part of my game. Chipping is about a smooth swing and CONFIDENCE:)
works …way more spin
You need a lot of core and leg strength for this, and most new golfers should just pitch like this for months on end until they get it. The next level after dead handing is decelerative like Wesley Bryan. The reason dead handing and decelerative work so well is it's a gear reduction to have more feel for short shots where you're on a knife's edge.
Ams don't usually learn this well because they don't play fast courses where you're nearly dead short side.
Jason Day is solid, but not elite in pitching because he simplifies it in favor of better iron play. His iron play is close to goated, and when you miss in the right spot, you don't really need to complicate things like Phil. It's a very slight improvement being like Wesley Bryan and other decel players. Day is also way more consistent so I'm a big proponent of his strategy even if it's not the absolute best way to pitch. It's the second best way.
I do notice this (not on purpose) that when I do this, it is more of a pure shot. I am confused watching Wesley Bryan decelerate in his downswing in chipping, and he is one of the best. Maybe that is his dead hand technique?
Can we acknowledge how ridiculous J Day's backyard is? Holy shit. I watched his chipping contest vid with Wes Bryan and got the full tour as they kept taking longer shots. I can't imagine having something like that place to practice. Amazing.
What they don’t tell you is to pull the right shoulder behind your ear just like the golf swing: it’s just a shorter version and hands do go along for the ride
