Why is it so difficult to chip, even with an 8 iron? I mean, they are much much hotter (at least the way I execute them).

What are the general tendencies of a player who has difficulty chipping with 9, 8, or 7 irons? Not enough right forearm, not enough wrist cock, too much of it? Should they be executed as a cut chip, or standard inside to square to inside? Help in making these shots come off "softer" (and no, I dont expect them to land like a butterfly, just to be controllable).

Thanks.
