What Is a Good Chip?

from Hack It Out Golf

Most golfers know the 10% rule on the greens: for a lag putt, getting it within 10% of the starting distance is generally a good result. Is there a similar rule of thumb for chipping? In this episode, Lou and Mark tackle this helpful listener question, so that we all have a baseline for reasonable expectations around the greens—and solid assessments for productive practice.
