For experienced players looking for more precision: Educated Hands. Uneducated Hands can nullify it all and never be suspected (5-0). Think Mr. Kelley was on to something here?

Remember, every Stroke has a Finish. Even short Chips and Pitches -- Basic and Acquired Motion -- that conclude at the end of the Follow-Through (Both Arms Straight position).

And the five Finish alignments (12-3-12) are just as important here as in the Total Motion:

(1) Finish Swivel (deliberately not employed; monitor the Hinge Action instead);

(2) Left Wrist alignment;

(3) Hand location;

(4) Clubshaft position;

(5) Balance and Body position.

In other words, the Finish -- even if it is merely the end of the Follow-Through -- is a precision destination. And, from the Top of the Stroke, it is this destination that the Hands are Educated to seek. The student practices the shorter Strokes, not just to improve his Short Game, but also to train the Hands to swing through Impact and into the correct Follow-Through / Finish alignments.

"Take advantage of the fact that the Hands are better at moving into a position than at holding a position. This is especially effective with Wrist Action and Release Motions." (3-B; italic added)

Using first the Putter and then the Chipper, that was Annie's second lesson.
