lag pressure
Generally This means you have some throw away. If you find the clubhead moving fast even when you are swinging slowly then you are probably throwing the club, or quitting in the case of this shot.
Chances are if you are used to practicing chipping with a wedge you are used to hitting short shots with much more speed and much more lag pressure. With a wedge you get much more spin and the ball comes out much higher making it stop much faster when it lands.The spot you natrually look to fly the ball is much farther towards the target with a wedge, but with a less lofted club you must land it much much shorter.
When using a less lofted club you need a much shorter stroke so you can sustain the lag through the ball and still strike the shot.
Try hitting shots with much less lag pressure and sustaining the pressure through untill follow through. The less lag pressure the softer the shot will come out.

Check out Chapter 12, the Basic Motion Curriculum. This is key. The components are dependent on whether you are swinging or hitting. No wrist cock or pivot etc. Check the book.
