DIY: Indoor Chipping Drill

Too cold to hit the course? 🥶 Don’t let your short game freeze up this winter! In this video, I show you how to build a simple DIY Indoor Chipping Station using items you probably already have at home.

This "Cardboard Box Drill" is perfect for developing your golf hands and ensuring you hit down on the ball rather than scooping it.

What You Need:

• Small golf mat (12x18)

• A piece of cardboard (an Amazon box works great!)

• Foam golf balls (safe for indoors)

• A chipping net

The Drill:

Place the cardboard box directly behind your mat.

The goal is to chip the ball into the net without hitting the box on your backswing or downswing.

• Setup: Weight forward, ball back in your stance.

• The Swing: Keep your nose in front of the ball and finish with your clubhead low to the ground.

• The Feedback: If you hit the box, you’re likely tilting back or scooping! Start at 3 steps away and work your way back as you improve.
