Thanks for watching the Golfalot Ping ChipR Review. 
Спорт
OK the key to the Chipr success? The weighted soul. / design. Flop shot you ask? Believe it or not I have on many occasions been able to lob the ball over the trap and have it check up fairly close. If you are in heavy grass or rough just simple open up the club face and drive through the ball as you would with a wedge. Open face also works when trying to control loft and run on the ball. This is an all purpose. I never use wedges for chipping. Love this club and oh yes you don't a graphite shaft. Ever use a wedge with a graphite shaft?
Smart move by Ping.
Ego will be the biggest limiting factor for the majority of golfers who SHOULD be using it (which is the majority).
I wouldn’t normally dare to contradict you (love your reviews), but, I collected my Ping Chipr yesterday afternoon. Went straight to the range. I’m a very mature 20.7 handicap golfer with arthritis WHO CANT CHIP. So, with a putter grip I totally concur with you 7 handicap tester, max comfortable distance 35 to 40 yards and after a half hour and half a bucket of balls I got it pretty dialled in off both hard and soft mats. But here’s the contradiction, changed to a normal golf grip and with a very straight through half swing I could, with ease, punch a ball out to 75 yards with excellent accuracy and extreme consistency. I never tried a proper full swing but I have to say (and I can only speak for myself) I would be very comfortable with any shot from 80 yards and in, just need to change my grip as it gets closer.
How did you find the head weight? I saw one yesterday and head felt super heavy but I guess that’s to help promote that putting like stroke?
@@SmokeyRobbo yes the head is heavy, but with a steel shaft it did feel pretty balanced. Not so sure how it would work with a graphite shaft. For me I liked the weight, it promoted a very smooth and deliberate takeaway and swing.
I agree. Just got one and it’s like three clubs - chip and run, half swing pitch and full swing up to 80 yards. Love it.
The best club I've ever bought, I've dropped my gap wedge and punch this in from 80 yards, unless I've to go over a bunker I'm using the ping from anywhere around the green.
Really like that the review was from a 7 hdcp golfer who is struggling around the greens. I saw Rick Shiels review this club but he's a low handicapper so it was great to have a regular golfer with poor chipping provide the verdict.
Not sure Rick qualifies as a low handicapper.
I have a square strike which I do find room for in the bag. Foolproof...nearly. Great as always Sophie
I’ve been golfing for 6 years now.. chipping WAS 100% my weak link. Being a Ping guy, I found a Chipr used (still looked new) and bought it. I’ve never holed a chip shot in my life. Took the Ping Chipr to practice using it and holed 3 times! Love this club and it works perfectly! Even from rougher lies.
This could be a great addition to someone's Bag.
Dean seems to have a problem with controlling the low point of his wedge, probably caused by his arms being too stiff and standing too square at address. I've had this same issue in the past when a Coach advised me to Chip like a Putt. For some bizarre reason you end up locking everything up and all the "feel" goes.
It might help if he opens up his stance (a little) and that he tries to take the tension out of his arms by relaxing his grip and unlocking his wrist & elbow joints (slightly). It helped me so hopefully, it might help Dean
Very helpful video.
Great idea to get a golfer who struggles with chipping to test it.
It seems sensible to go for the steel shaft .
Thank you to both of you.
I use a 45 degree Mazel, Square Strike style type, chipper. It's a confidence boosting club, when you see your ball land within 50 yards of the green and you know you've got a simple putting style chip to get onto the putting surface from almost any type of lie.
One of my favourite videos Soph!! Ping chipr - I’m in!!
I recall seeing an interview with Roger Cleveland many years ago and he talked about using a chipper occasionally and even using it for longer shots. Cleveland came out with a really weird iron set in the early 90’s that looked a bit like chippers. That’s probably the context of the interview that I’m thinking of. Always enjoy your reviews Sophie.
I can perfectly relate to Dean’s struggles… same hcp, with on and off chipping yips: I’ve got long periods when my chipping is good, and then weeks when I struggle and my rounds go south… I tried it a couple of days ago and I found it very easy and consistent: I’ve ordered one, just in case…
Thanks… I just started using the Chipper and what I learned helped!
Great video, Soph! You ought to do a whole series of these kinds of lessons, perhaps with a slant towards the slower-swinging crowd. I'd dig that.
And I can both sympathize and empathize with Dean. I'd recommend a couple of Cleveland CBX wedges in addition to a chipper. And maybe a slight change in how he approaches these shots. My main thought for all short game shots is, "move the ball forward toward the target, at the right pace" rather than "hit the ball up in the air." That includes shots where I have to hit it high. You're thinking forward - not up. This helps me keep my hands in front of the ball through the shot, maintaining wrist angle, and helps keep me from flipping, which gets you skulls and chunks and chili-dips and all other conceivable manner of disaster. I concentrate on the "forward" part and I let the club's loft handle the "up" part. But you hardly ever really need to hit a ball very high around the greens. People do, because it looks cool on that one-out-of-twenty shots where you pull it off. For that shot over the bunker, a really high shot wasn't necessary. Seemed like there was a lot of green to work with. Dean only needed a little bit more loft. Had he hit even PW or 50º wedge fairly solidly all three would have been on the green.
I use chippers. Love them. And,,,,,, Ping has come out with a good one. This review is well done Sophie. Thank you.
Great stuff Sophie, I use a Chipper so this is definitely on my radar. Great review!👍⛳️
I have at times been a good chipper of the ball, I use the "rule of 12 technique", but I have to practice it quite a lot to maintain the "feel" and that hasn't been easy since I bought my Xxio irons, as you pointed out they have a tendency to ping off the club face. And I will be soon changing jobs so practice will be very limited in the future. So after seeing some of the reviews about the smart sole 4 I've gone ahead and bought one. One practice session and quite mixed results. As long as I can use a ratio of 1/3 I can get some really good results, but less than that and the smart sole is practically useless, and the sole doesn't lend itself to being opened up. If I played on links courses then I'd have one in my bag for sure, but on my parkland course...maybe not. Footnote, my wife used one for years and loved it, always told me to stop faffing around and get one!
Rick Shiels dropped a similar video today too 😂😂😂. Same club. Looks nice and not cheap looking compared to other chippers
Don't know why people would pick this over the Cleveland at $40+ less. Cleveland has been making chippers for at least 15 years I used to have one of their Niblick chippers. My brother still uses it lol.
Perhaps because you can’t buy the Cleveland chipper anywhere, and when you try to order one they quote a “possible” 3 month wait. Shameful
@@paulaskey1508 I have a Cleveland chipper. So I notice them when I see them in stores. They're literally everywhere. I read your reply so I Googled it and the 1st golf galaxy that came up has 4 in stock. 🤦🏻♂️
@@Clubber_Lang not in the UK they are not
@@paulaskey1508 ahh. My bad. 😞
I have seen another review where it was used beyond 40 yards and it produced good results. I would love to see a comparison with Cleveland Smart Sole 4. I have a 42 degree Niblick from years ago and I love it.
Mark cross field did it, difference is he can hit the club not like this guy
I could hit my niblick 130 to 140 yards. I replaced all my wedges with the smartsole 4's. The chipper is an easier niblick if you can believe that. Strongly reccomend smartsole 4's. I have all 3 andvthey are cheater clubs.
Good review as always Sophie, I am still not sure about the chipr but I would like to try one out. I am also a 7?handicapper who struggles sometimes with chipping so I was interested to see the trial.🤠
Took my 60 degree out of bag and put in a ChipR. Immediately gained confidence in getting up and down and chipped in more than ever.love it
I have a Cleveland smart sole chipper, I hate love hate relationship with it, some days it’s the best thing in world other days not so much. I don’t think it’s the chippers fault, pretty sure it operator error. I think chipper’s are a great tool to have in your bag. Also I’ve hit all the way to 75 yards and had some great results. Thanks for the video.
This is a great review!
Hi Sophie just rewatched your Video👍, (2weeks ago bought my Ping ChipR) Practice with it a little it was good but ran out a little too much, So got the loft increase buy (2.5deg) to 41deg and it’s now perfect for me👍,I think this is the Best New Club this year,And think Ping must have spent a lot of time & money Designing & Testing this Club😃, I also believe it will become the most sort after Club of the year👍, The strength of my game is from 100yds and in👍, But found it difficult to judge distances with chip and run shots, But with this club found it easy, Because of the following:- The shorter length of shaft, the extra weight in the head, The upright lie angle, The extra spin the tighter groove’s generate, And the super feel you get with shots😃, I also get great distance control on full shots, Would love to see you do a full review from all distances, I think you will be amazed how accurate you are with it👍, I got mine with a graphite shaft and get a lovely penetrating high flight with it😃, and it’s so easy to hit full shots, Thanks Sophie would love to here you’re thoughts, Dickey 9hcp 75year Senior Golfer
Use the Cleveland 4core wedge. Works great for me from 50 to 60 yds and out of the bunker.
I've managed to dial in my chipping, but have been in the same boat struggling around the greens and I can see the value of getting the confidence back
Cleveland smartsole 4 should be considered. Callaway, odysee, ping, Cleveland all make fantastic chippers. Best tools no one uses lol
I’m currently using an 8 iron for bump and runs, but would definitely buy this.
Great video. I never look at ball when chipping I look 3 to 4 inches in front of ball. stops thinning most of time.
Good point about the feel. I often use my 4-5 hybrid for chipping but it can be a little quick off the face so takes a bit of practice. Guess that’s the point of the chipper. Minimal effort for significant gains.
Steroids for our short game😎
Been using a chipper since niblick came out. Replaced it with smartsole 4 C. New and improved and saves strokes every round.
I've got one on order and can't wait to try it. I am a poor chipper off of tight lies around the green, but the turf is too unpredictable to use a putter from 3 yards off the green. I hope I can save 1-2 strokes per round with this club in my bag.
How do you like it?
Very nice review. Thank you. This video got a like, just for the funny comment at Rick Shiels expense. LOL! Keep up the great work! Cheers
I got divorced in 2000 and I swear to this day my ex put a curse on my chipping! Went to my golf pro and he said it’s all in your head and he couldn’t help me! I’ve had the yips for 20 years! Before the curse I was a 9 handicap! I think I’m ordering one tomorrow LOL!
Good club for person who struggles around the green with a wedge. Use a putter stroke and improve results.
For chipping around the green my first choice was a 9 iron followed by 8 and 7 depending how much "run" I judged I needed - however the consistency of strike meant that results were variable some fantastic, some good and the rest mediocre or worse ! I have bought the ChipR with the aim or getting a consistent strike therefore more control on distance using the "putter" stroke - fingers crossed
I have a tour edge chipper and couldn’t live without it!
Have a solid short game but bought the ChipR and Cleveland C figuring one of them would wind up in my wife’s bag😀. She preferred the C and it has really helped her confidence around the green over the ChipR. I prefer the ChipR As I think it is more flexible on longer shots and can open it up slightly if needed. Having used the Rule of 12’s for years I can say it is not as accurate as a well executed 7 iron chip BUT there is much less chance of a poor shot. For most mid to high handicap it is worth a try and they likely have room in their bag after a good look at their gapping and club use. We have used the chippers for several rounds and use them enough to clearly justify a place in the bag.
would love to see a comp against the old Chipo!
Use your hybrid!! I can get it close every time and use it off the tee and the fairway too! Yes, the chipper is the latest marketing fad but think about how many clubs are in your bag and how you can use them!
Hi Sophie Great 👍 Video, unbiased review as all ways😃
Looks like a well designed club
(That does what it says on the tin), I guarantee your man will buy one, I totally understand the problem’s he has chipping and this club cure’s his problem 👍, I love your comment (it doesn’t look like a Chipper), Could you use your influence with Ping & get them to expand the range with a “Pitcher”50deg,12deg bounce, 1.5” longer shaft, full face groves, Wedge shaped head, +2deg upright lie,(spec. should be ideal) Thanks Sophie Dickey 9hcp 75year Senior Golfer
I have an 18 handicap and bought this club a month ago. I have found it an excellent addition it has given me confidence in these shots and made a positive impact
Is it still in your bag a year later?
I have this club, I can use it up to 80-85 yards, but you must maintain the V putter shape with your arms as you 1/2 stroke back.
The club works if you don’t play protected greens . For that reason by all means use one but you have to learn to hit a lob / sand wedge to get over green side hazards . Get a very forgiving lob wedge and a lesson as well .
Great video Sophie. I’m really interested in this club and watching loads of videos about it. Yours was very entertaining and useful. I have Ping G400 irons that were custom fitted (+.5 in, white dot). Daft question but would I get this in the same spec - bearing in mind you use it like a putter? Thanks in advance.
That would be your chipper. I play a lot of cleveland so for mevcleveland C was an easy choice. I reccomend steel, or a heavier shaft as it helps getting through the rough a bit easier
Loved the Rick S. Comment!
I purchased one to try out on my local links courses. The more I practiced with it,the more confident I became with it. I have only ever holed out once when chipping. That was until I started using the Chipr. Now I’m disappointed if I don’t hold at least 1 chip per 2or 3 rounds . It’s in my bag to stay. I’ve even started using it with an iron swing and up to about 55/60 yards. If you practice with it I’m certain it will improve the scoring off any 10+ handicaper.
I have 13 clubs in the bag and all my gapping is good for me and I’ve got 1 spare spot and I’m seriously considering buying the chipr for my game,I use my 9 iron for bump and runs and for the most part it’s ok but I know I can improve on that and this is a viable option
Sophie. You as a friend you do physically laugh at my chipping. Although today it was so much better.
Chippers have been available for decades , now all of a sudden because Ping bring a new model out they are the must have club.
Don't sleep on cleveland either. Also, odysee and callaway look really good. I play a lot of cleveland so cleveland C for me. Chippers are greatvznd will save strokes
Terrific video! Funny you mentioned Rick. I think I won his ChipR!?! Check out his review video. I really hope it's not fake. I was gonna ask my wife to get this for me for my 20th wedding anniversary.
I play the Chipo. It is like magic. If they made a whole set based on Chipo that is what I would play.
I have every club known to mankind, and I don't care what the world thinks. I even have the Mazel and Square Strike versions of chippers. I just received my Ping Chipr and can't wait to try it instead and maybe leave some wedges at home for a few rounds. I look forward to having more fun with it instead of frustrations. If it help my game, it'll stay no matter what the club house has o say. lol.
I a a pretty good chipper but I still may give this a go. Not sure what to take out however if I do.
I'm waiting for the Mizuno Pro Chipper. My buds will never make fun of me then. 😅
If you're going beyond 30 40 yards out you have to introduce some wrist and body into it. She probably should have pointed that out to him. As for him saying he doesn't have room in his bag then take a club out. For god sake if he was asked to do the video because he struggled with chipping and he said the chipper worked for him then make room....
Sweet dig at Rick. Viewers should know that Rick is the first one to tell you his chipping is weak. He reviewed this club, but raised the most salient issue regarding it: which club do you remove to make room for it?
The club itself doesn't look like a typical chipper. It has a 9-iron loft and its club face looks like an iron But the lie angle and length is similar to a putter.
I have one. I'm just trying it out now. I don't use a putting grip, however. I put a putting stroke on the ball, and I play it back in my stance. I try to use a 3:1 ratio; 3 yards of roll for every yard of carry. Thus, a 16-yard shot would fly 4 yards and roll 12. This is adjusted for greens speed, where I'm going to land it, and uphill/downhill/sidehill.
It is less versatile than using my wedge set, but I really like its consistency. You use a putting--not chipping--stroke. But it still leaves us the question: Which club will I replace?
I ordered one yesterday: as soon as I’ll receive it, I’ll go to my driving range and I’ll do a trackman session, in order to see how it reacts and its average distance on full shots. Then I might replace my actual gamer that goes the same distance. After a month, how do you feel it and how did you decide which club to take out from your bag?
@@annefilippobertozzi7601 The last thing you'll want to do is hit full shots with it. It's not designed for that. The club will be too upright, for one thing. (Something like 70 degrees) Second, the swing weight will be far to heavy (something like E-5). It has no use as a full-swing club and at least two severe limitations.
The club's value is that it produces a chip shot with a putting stroke. That's it. It is an improvement over those old chippers because of the upright lie angle and heavier swing weight, but it has no other uses.
Which club to replace? I still haven't made that decision. I'll probably just leave it out. If I was forced to put it in, I'd remove the LW. But because I play single-length irons, my SW is the same length as an 8-iron. That makes it difficult to use with some greenside shots. So, in order to put this chipper into play, I'd have to remove my LW and replace my single-length SW with a traditional one. I'm not sure this chipper is worth all of that, especially when chipping is a good part of my game to begin with.
@@richdouglas2311 Actually, I've seen a couple of reviews on YT where it was also used for full shots and it behaved pretty well...
Edit: I tried it today and effectively, you can’t really hit full shots consistently.
Just got a Wilson Staff chipper, early days but quite good results so far, and only £30 !!
Bag a chipper, bag a chipper bag a chipper. Well done, great price. Scoreboard doesn't care about price
One of my biggest problems is, I don't get enough GIR, so I'm always just off the green. As a result, I often have to chip on the green and it doesn't go to plan more often than not. I could easily see myself taking out my 5 iron (which pretty much goes the same distance as my 6 iron, when I can hit it) and put this ping chipper in the bag. It also helps that it looks like an iron, which is always a positive.
Callaway, odysee, ping, Cleveland... can't go wrong with any of them UNLESS you don't have one. The best for me was Cleveland. Got a full set of smartsole 4 wedges. Mmmmm goood!!! 25 yards out got my first birdie chip in on my 3rd round maybe?? Point is I ususlly get up and down 2 or 3 times a round and have hit countless flags. Baf a chipper, it's almost dummy proof and only gets better with time.
@@gcoffey223 I've seen another vid where the guy was using a Cleveland chipper, that has an even bigger sole compared to the Ping. I think I'm going to have to visit my local American Golf store and try them out. Thanks for your reply 👍🏽
@@ob1slam
Very welcome, happy hunting!!!
Using it like a 9 iron and at a distance of 30 to 40 yds seems ideal…will try it out.
I have ZERO confidence in my chipping. I was good in my youth, but lost it. I rely on my Scott Cameron putter as a Texas wedge, which is sad. Maybe this could help a lot.
I'm the same, but I use my 8-9 iron instead
Dean was using it with a fairly straight left arm action. How about using it with a bent elbows stiff hands putting action!
Great review. Is it also suited to female golfers?
I would use it
Watch Crossfield’s review and you will understand the potential. I dropped my ego and purchased one right away because he showed 3 different shots from 100 yards and in!!!
Hi Sophie. Did you manage to get yourself up to St. Andrews yesterday?
Watch M. Crossfield that’s why I bought it!🤙🏽
I think Dean would have more success swinging like a putter than using a shipping stroke
agreed, he should just be using the ole texas wedge vs trying to chip. At least until he gets a lesson
I don’t even struggle with chipping. I just think I could get a higher level of consistency with the natural putting stroke this club uses.
I have a couple of questions.
why doesn't anyone make a chipper with 50° of loft?
With the ping colour code system could you just order a wedge in a maroon dot?(4/5° upright)
Another youtuber has been singing the praises of chippers for a while now and in his review of this club was taking fuller, almost normal swings with the club from up to 100 yards yet yourself and Rick didn't even try anything other than short bump and runs with it, have you tried hitting this further?
My cleveland chipper flies like an 8 iron on a full swing. 130-140 yards easily. I only do it on the range for fun. I have hit inside 100 once for fun during a round so yess, they can fly. 40, 50 60 yards from a terribe lie is where they shine. Very easybto hit and Cleveland didva tremendous job with their new smartsole 4 design. Cheater clubs
Cleveland makes their chippers in 42* 50* and 58*
I would buy it if it had 4-5 degrees more loft!
Only issue I would have with this it is a one trick pony. Bump and run. If you need any loft like to hit over Sand Trap or Elevated Green where Loft is required.
I doubt a 7 handicap chips like this.
kinda what I was thinking
Me too. A 7 would have no problem chipping over a bunker
I have a friend that is about a 9 and has the chip yips (he can miss THE GREEN from 5 yds)! If he could just chip decently, he would be 5 or under!
I guess everybody has their trouble point. But to play to a 7 and chip like he does he must never miss a fairway or green.
It's me, and yes I do chip like that.
Cleveland Smart Sole 4 chipper. The gold standard and $60 cheaper.
I am looking at getting a smart sole chipper, would you recommend it rather than the Ping ChipR?
@@ollye4786 Definitely. The Ping ChipR just looks like a slightly wider soled iron. The Cleveland chippers sole is much wider and they have been making these types of clubs for years.
Great little club just a bit pricey
Tempting but how could it be better than chipping with different club/loft to have the best flight/roll ratio ? If I have a distance with 2/3 of fairway and 1/3 of green how that chipper could be used ? At the contrary if I have 1/4 of fairway and 3/4 of green what would be great for that chipper why can’t I use my putter or an easy 9 iron short chip ? A 42 loft chipper can’t replace a 58 or a 60wedge that you are afraid to « thin or blade » just because of the flight/roll ratio …
If you have 14 clubs in your bag, which club do you remove to add the chipper?
See my other reply…
I have a Chippo. My dad gave it to me....
Ping, callaway, odysee, Cleveland... they are all fantastic with today's tech. If you aren't a pro or a 2 or 3 hzndicap, BAG A CHIPPER.
Did Dean buy the ChipR?
I have a chipper in my bag right now. I like a wider sole than this Ping ChipR. I’d just as soon use my 9 iron than this one. This ping ChipR doesn’t look like enough help for me.
Not how, but how many. I'm in.
nice Sophie!!!...
His long game and putting must be super strong to get to a 7 HC with that uncomfortable looking short game. But hey we all have faults and if this helps him then great.
Great video. Would be good to know if you can open the face at all.
You must hit a lot of greens in regulation
Dean has the same thing going on as me. He has the chipping yips. It all starts after he hits his approach shot into what I call the Danger Zone i.e. the place where you have to hit a chip shot, to access the green / pin if your lucky. On walking to the stationary ball your automatically on the back foot because your dreading the shot as confidence is that low (3 out 10 proves the point). So the frame of mind is all wrong for the forthcoming effort. That leads to poor prep, poor execution and poor result leading to more less of confidence and hence less enjoyment (felt like walking off as point of reference). Chipping yips just like putting yips can destroy your belief that you can play the game to a reasonable standard. NOW If you look at Deans first shots with both his own iron and then the chipper the yips are evident, body and head movement is apparent leading to the knees buckling and moving resulting in a top of thin shot at best. Low confidence and poor technique lead to no feel and poor execution. Once he started to use the ChipR (other brands are available) you could see his posture and movement slightly changed which bodes well for the merits of this particular club and the confidence this will hopefully bring. Additionally after using the ChipR a few times and going back to his own iron his execution had improved slightly which is a big plus. As I started off I have the same issues as Dean, my potential remedies are, I buy a chipper of some kind to help restore confidence and allow me to enjoy the game a little better or stop moving my body and head during the execution or seek professional assistance or it could be a combination of all three. I hope Dean is able to sort this element of the game just like me. M
Not designed for going over a bunker because that shot is a pitch ! This club is for what it says on the tin which is chipping not pitching
I think this will sell like hotcakes
I don't need it,but for my short set I want it..
You’ll have to practice no matter what you use.
I usually chip with my 9 iron...same loft as the chipper...I do not see a need for it!!
I thought the same, but I can grant it’s much different: a lot easier, due to its weight and lie
Wagon and band come to mind. Is the quality good? It looks damaged around the cavity.
How dare Ping try to sell things that people want 😁
Looking forward to your ball retriever review, lol.
Doesn't work for hitting over the bunker ......... yet the only two on the green were hit with the chipper. You are NOT a seven hcp. More like a 17 hcp.
My index is 6.1, which gives me 7 at Stockport.
Nobody laughs at people using a hybrid instead long irons or the current popularity of 7 woods. So it strikes me as funny or even hypocritical to make fun of using a chipper.
How is a 7 handicap ready to “walk off the golf course”?
When you should or would be a 3 if you could only get up and down a few times a round!
Because I've been taking 4 sometimes 5 to get down from 5-10 yards off the green. So no enjoyment whatsoever.
To be honest I would have rather seen a 17 handicapper the way he chipped from inside 30 yds in the semi rough I don’t think he tested this club correctly, because the guy can chip !
Good video but if he’s a 7 handicap then Elvis is still alive. Can’t even hit a chipper and he is a single figure golfer, pull the other one
7 handicapper ???
How is he a 7?
How is this guy a 7 handicap????
