Feel heavy arms to steady chip and pitch contact

For chip and pitch shots, the instructor shares a feel he credits to Nick Felder: imagine your arms are weighted, with weight on the end of your fingertips, and as you swing feel the weight of the club so your arms want to extend and straighten. He cautions against being too tense or rigid. Swinging back and forth with this heavy-arms feel, he says he hits the ground in the same place all the time.
