Maintain the trail-hand wedge through impact

To stop flipping the hands at impact, the speaker says to maintain the 'wedge' - the angle in your trail hand (the right hand for a right-handed player) - through the impact zone and through to the finish. He drills it by hitting chip shots, taking the club back a short way, and keeping that wedge to the finish with the hands forward. He says this removes the flip so you have one contact point and hit the same spot every time.
