A couple of things

My Pro always got me to chip with all of my weight on my left leg and the ball against my left heel but I am more comfortable with my weight on my right foot with the ball against the right heel.
When I putt my weight is even on both feet and the ball in the middle of my stance.
I guess I am asking:
1) Should my weight be distributed the same for chipping and putting?
2) If so, where should the distribution be, if not what are the differences?
3) Should my ball position be the same for chipping and Putting?
4) If so, where should the the position be,If not what are the differences?

As always thanks for the advice.
If your pro gives you advice, folllow it. Yes, your weight should be forward as should your ball position when chipping.

During putting, your weight should be fairly even, ball position a bit forward and hands ahead of the ball.
