Notice that Nick creates high or low trajectories with ball position and a combination of elbow and wrist bend.
- To hit a high pitch, move the ball slightly forward and, at impact, keep your trailing elbow bent and let your wrist bend forward (bow your wrist).
- To hit a low chip, move the ball slightly backward and, at impact, keep your trailing elbow straight and don't let your wrist bend forward (cup your wrist).
- when you hit a high pitch, the clubhead finishes up near your shoulders.
- when you hit a low chip, the clubhead finishes down near your knees.
- With the high pitch, the clubface points up toward the sky.
- With the low chip, the clubface points toward the target.
It's not very hard to visualize these shots. And once you can do that, you'll find that both shots are fairly easy to execute.
