With SHORT CHIPS, the stroke is so short that HITTING and SWINGING will LOOK very similar. Use a very narrow stance(six inches wide or so), square to slightly open with the feet. The whole left shoulder area will be in front of the ball.
To SWING-- The left arm is like a rope, so use a fairly light grip pressure. Sense the hands going back, up, and in, then down , out, and forward to the ball. Have a dragging, lagging sensation. Only use enough force so that you can comfortably finish with both arms straight, and the clubhead still below your hands, as in the pictures of Vicki(when she got it).
To HIT-- The left arm is like an AX. Use a little tighter grip. Put the right elbow in more of a Punch position(slightly out) to set up the punching(pushing) motion of the right arm.
The RIGHT ARM IS ACTIVE WITH THE HIT, MORE PASSIVE WITH THE SWING.
