I found today that on short chips (inside 15 yards) I sort of turn my head with the chip. I tried keeping my head all the way down and not looking at the ball until my follow threw was completed, but it felt awkward, what do you guys do on chips?

My head stays still like on a full swing.

1) feet together
2) hips open
3) weight forward
4) shoulder moving the club and not your hands
5) learn the distance with the length of your backswing
6) slight forward press

On chip shots, I use a putting grip and putting stroke.
Also, I usually use a 7-iron. I find that with a 7-iron there is much less of a chance of hitting it fat than if I use a 56* or 60* wedge.
Ive tried using a wedge, having a closed stance and playing it back in my stance but I always end up hitting the ball way too hard and knocking it 20' past the hole.

    • Can you elaborate on this?  There's a par-4 hole at the course I've played the most (was my home course for over a decade, now 50 miles away but I still go and play there) whose green is below the fairway and I realized recently it's one of three holes on the course I've never made birdie, despite that I often have a short iron into the green for my second shot.  It isn't even that I haven't made birdie, but I realize I often don't hit the green.  My typical play of the hole is to have a near-GIR and sometimes I get up and down, but not as often as I would if I were trying to 2-putt.
