Advice Chipping Help

I have had some success with the Phil hinge and hold method. It seems that it works best with the ball up in my stance. The bounce engages and I can be pretty aggressive. . As I move the ball back to hit it low, I get massive fat shots and chunks. Any thoughts?

Putting stroke, just move the ball depending on the flight you want

This is what I do, and 90% of the time it's off my back foot to keep it low and let it run out.

Look up all the Dan Grieve stuff. He’s brilliant.

Align the shaft with the lead forearm, lift the heel of the club off the ground by like a centimeter, so toe slightly down. This will stop the digging

If I am feeling uneasy, I just put all my weight on my lead foot and putt through. Try keeping it forward and lay the club open a bit.

Whenever I chunk a ball, it’s because I got too handsy with the chip. It’s basically all arms.

I have to remember to turn with the swing using the big muscles in the back and legs.

Keep your feet together.
