Chipping is the little shot that is hit near the green. The shot is usually a lower shot that rolls some.
Typical instruction for the set-up of the shot is to place weight in the left side ( foot closest to green ) with the handle forward of the club head and ball position back or behind center.
Now for the left knee. If you take the left knee and bow it out toward to green. You will have a keep your weight to the left helping to eliminate a flip of the hands and the skull shot (thin shot). You can also bow the knees out at set-up. This just helps eliminate the lower body movement.
Have fun practicing this and I hope it helps you PLAY BETTER GOLF.
