Good shot Brian, NEVER LET THE RIGHT HAND PASS THE LEFT HAND
so, how do I do that..............
Mechanically, you either chip swing with your left or right forearm. Firm up your grip and move the forearm back and forth, of course ball is played back. weight is forward and the grip handle is ahead of the ball at the start. Your just returning it to that position at the finish
Forearm chipping and getting vertical club shaft on the backswing in the green side bunker will take 3-6 shots, at least, off your score for a round. easy peese

The key to chipping, is to lead with your left side and make sure it continues to move throughout the shot.
In other words (for a right-handed golfer), don't ever let your right hand pass your left ... unless you really know what you're doing and have good club face control.
If we're giving chipping lessons, most higher handicap golfers should be familiar with the "Rule of 13" and should read & take to heart, everything Paul Runyon said about chipping. (Which allowed him to beat Sam Snead, 8&7, at the 1938 PGA Championship ... despite the fact that Snead could out drive him by 50-60 yards.)
