Dont do it! your 7,8,9 irons are more than competent to play a chip!

Samantha, I've worked with my 7-iron to the point where I'm more confident of a 'tap in' using it from off the green that I am with a long putt, you can use 8 or 9 irons for where you need a bit more loft / carry. It's simple once you get the touch, so don't waste your money.

Gave up my chipper some time ago. I get better results with other clubs and decided I was carrying it for no reason in the end. Good luck.

Only one question you need to ask. Do you see professionals using them? The answer, of course, is no. That's because they are rubbish!

Learn to chip properly.

Can't argue with that one.
