    Default Chipping with claw grip

    Been experimenting with a reverse saw grip (no right index finger near the grip) to putt with unbelievable success! . Just discovered the claw to chip with any one else using a 7 wood with a reverse claw to overcome the chipping yips?

    Any advice appreciated ! Keeping it simple is the key

    I think a 5 hybrid is better than a 7 wood

    Is it legal to have a fatso 5 grip on a cut down 7 wood ? Thinking of dropping my 67 wedge for one, just a heads up though the claw grip is not good for lob wedges

    Why not get a chipping lesson, do some practice on how to do it properly, get some confidence in your game rather than **** around with stuff that is actually harder to do and even harder to repeat regularly

    Actually CT, if you're chipping badly, you need a new driver mate!

    That ain't going to fix Acute Chipping Yips. Just ask Bogles.

    It should if he practices enough and concentrates on the stroke and not the result. I would try chipping one handed if all else failed
