Golf Chipper FAQ
Why is a golf chipper necessary?
A golf chipper is designed similar to a putter but with a higher lofted face. Using a putting stroke, a chipper drops the ball onto the green from the higher grass and fringe just outside the green.
Is a golf chipper just another version of the pitching wedge?
No, pitching wedges and chippers have a different angle or loft, meaning the ball's trajectory will be very different when you hit it.
What is a non-drag bevel?
A non-drag bevel eliminates resistance from the ground on a chip shot. Without this friction, you will have a cleaner, more accurate shot. The Ray Cook Silver Ray CP-03 Chipper offers this convenient feature.
How can a large sole be a benefit in a golf chipper?
A large sole, the bottom area of the clubhead, can help cut through rough areas outside the green, helping you make a more accurate shot. The Tour Edge Hot Launch HL4 Chipper is designed with this feature, allowing you to tackle those rough edges in your golf game.
What is another benefit of a smooth wide sole in a golf chipper?
A smooth wide sole can keep your club from having excessive contact with the dirt as you make your shot. Clubs like the Orlimar Escape Red Chipper are built with this handy feature to help you get on the green and get to the hole.
Can I chip with a pitching wedge?
Since pitching wedges are not designed for this specialized type of shot, you will lose a lot of precision you would get from a golf chipper.
Aren't pitching and chipping the same thing?
No, generally, pitching involves a high loft shot in which you drop the ball onto the green in a specific place. Chipping is a lower, more controlled shot where the ball should continue to roll after a short period in the air.
