The Cleveland is more versatile as it has 42 degrees of loft. I use mine out to 80 yards.
He was Very negative… but trying to say the right thing on the video
Good show.
I love this club. It is very versatile.
I won my weekly club competition recently and it was my best round in years and I used my ChipR at least 10 times from 100 metres in.
Hi Andy, another great video. I enjoy all your videos, especially showing and discussing all the variety of clubs that are now available.
The only thing now is I'm more confused over what clubs I should get. I've had my current Cobra irons for 10 years, and I'm a 15 handicap and looking to update them.
As you would know, there is a large number of irons recommended for a mid handicap. But watching many of your videos, I am starting to think, should I be getting Cleveland halo or Stealth HD or similar.
I will be getting fitted for new irons, but how do I limit the number of irons to try?
From your videos, is it just an ego that stops us from selecting the easiest irons?
Would appreciate comments.
How heavy is Lewis’s wedge? He’s dragging it like it’s 50kg 😅
I have it 1" long 1deg upright green dot. Works great for generaj chipping, the one place it doesn't work well is on really fast greens. I struggle with the touch to not blow it by the hole all the time. I actually switched to my 58 on my last round as I struggled with it due to the speed of the greens.
I have been using one for a while and it helps me score.
I am using the cleveland smart Sole Chipper. Can use from 60m in. Even use it in the green side bunker. Get unbelievable looks fron my playing partners when i do that 😅😅😅
Love the ChipR ❤️🔥🔥 great video Andy and Lewis loving the club just won’t admit it 😅
I was never a bad chipper but the Chipr just makes it easier. There was a gap in the bag so why not use it 👍🏻
I watch yours and James Robinson's video's and that got me to buy one. I 100% LOVE IT! I use it from 130 yards out to up to the edge of the greens. The only time I don't use it is in the sand unless it's in the middle and flat. I can make it get loft and spin too once you get used to it. It's pure vanity if you refuse to use a ChipR.
Because Lewis is a gentleman I'd love to hear what he said off camera 😲. They have their place and for absolute beginners they will inspire confident, which is a plus. As a negative, they appear a little one dimensional and possibly difficult to create a shot when needed. Great review boys.
Wedge over rough , 9 iron over a few fet of 1st cut works v well
I have one and it is so reliable and fills me with confidence.
It took me a bit of time to get used to it. At first I was running of greens frequently. However, I intuitively calibrated shots after awhile and it has been amazing since.
Have not tried a chipper as yet but will look at a Cleveland chipper for those very tight lies from close to the green…Thanks for your views Andy and the Pro…
I’m a huge pro ChipR, the heavy weight easy stroke will make it a winner for many. I’d like to see a set of irons in this configuration. Cheers!
I think he nailed it Ping bring out a 52 degree ChipR+. This is a great club if chipping is a nightmare.
Not a club for me at the mo . . . I’d rather get lessons and improve my skill (like Lewis said). That said – the one dimension will help many players, and maybe me, one day
My chipping has always been pretty good, but I do love the ChipR. It suits chip and run UK links golf, because that’s how we’ve always played around the greens. It will only take one tour pro or senior tour pro to put it in their back to dismiss the anti ChipR lobby. Look at how 7 woods are now in the in-thing, yet were dismissed as senior clubs several years ago. Definitely not one dimensional either, I even used mine from a lie 20 feet off the fairway under trees today as the high bounce and low launch suited the shot mush better than an iron or even a hybrid. Would have been interesting to see what Seve would have made of one of these!
Hi Andy loved your video 👍, I love using my ChipR tweaked from 39deg to 41deg the extra loft made it much easier to judge distances for me 👍, the strength of my game are my Wedges from 100yards & in, where I found the ChipR (like you), it’s a great club more versatile than Ping say it’s improved my short game (can recommend it) to golfers who want to improve their short game 👍, Thanks Andy Dickey 9hcp 76year senior golfer
Andy, could you compare the chipper and the Cleveland smart sole please
I’ve bought one and find it too fast off the face for accurate distance control beyond 30 yards. I’ll use it for the delicate 30 yards and closer putter style shots and for these it’s a magic wand. I think the weight of the head makes it inconsistent on longer shots.
'BIG PROBLEM' is with the audio.
Hands out of pockets, look interested.
I use a wilson prostaff chipper from sports direct played the first comp off the new season today a monthly medal and broken 100 for my first ever time got 99
Love my mine Ping Chpr. Not one dimensional. I use it for a full shot and anything under 100 metres. Effortless and easy to use.
Like your vids but having to watch Hotgolf every time is getting annoying
As a new – high handicap golfer trying to get better – the Smart Sole 4 Chipper from Cleveland has helped me go from consistantly above 100 with a H.I. of 32 down to my current 22.4. and shooting in the low to mid 90s. That said – I've recently had a really nice session with my PXG fitter who shared some great chipping theory/technique with me – using traditional wedges. I am now finding that I can use both techniques and both types of club for certain conditions around the green. I have space in my bag – so the chipper will remain for the time being. I really enjoy hitting it and am really enjoying my other wedges (52 and 58 PXG Forged 0311) as well.
It's another interesting review on this and I have 2 observations. The first is that when you have those difficult shots where you're short sided or you have to go over something. Really good players are trying to get it close, for those guys the child is never going to be the one. If you're not breaking 100 or you're duffing every wedge shot then really, you just need to get it on the green and remove the chance of that soul destroying duff into trouble.
The 2nd point is that you're the first person that's really mentioned the lack of loft, why hasn't anyone just bent a gap wedge upright and done a video with it?
