Clubs Used for Chipping: Your Lofted Friend For chipping, wedges are your go-to clubs. These are designed with higher lofts to help the ball get airborne. The right wedge helps control how high the ball flies and how much it rolls.
Here are the main wedges useful for chipping:
• Pitching Wedge (PW): Lowest loft (typically 44-48 degrees ). Great for lower flights and more roll. • Sand Wedge (SW): Medium loft (commonly 54-58 degrees ). A versatile club for medium height and moderate roll. • Lob Wedge (LW): Highest loft (usually 58-64 degrees ). Perfect for high shots that land softly with minimal roll. By choosing the right wedge, you can control your chip shot’s trajectory and roll, helping you get it closer to the hole!
