Ah yes, thanks for reminding me. When I do it, what happens is I decelerate on the way in, then semi-duff the chip, so the ball pops vaguely up in the air. It feels so weak that subconsciously I try to give it a bit more impetus by pushing the clubhead through. I think it's because I'm trying to get the club to the end of the swing and it's not going to get there unless I make it do so. When I do that, it's normally coincident with the ball coming back down again. It's also just about the worst thing you can do on the golf course. It's as bad as a shank or hitting it OB. You add two shots and you're basically only a yard or so closer to the hole than when you started. Ugh
