On my chipper I have noticed that more grass and debris collects closer to the toe of the clubface. Does this mean the club is too upright or too flat for me? Can you have a loft & lie check done on a chipper? Should have I insisted on being fitted for it?
I can post photos if it helps or do you need to see my chipper swing? ?

Make it the same length as your putter.
If you can hit your putter ok ,your good to go.

if you try and order the ping chipper online then you have to tick a disclaimer that you havent had a fitting for it......according to a friend

The last time I seen a chipper in the hands of a playing partner it was in 2 pieces after he snapped it over his knee. 2 bad chips was the final straw ?

One of the chaps I played with yesterday had a chipper. It was marked 35-degrees. Why do you need to know the loft of a chipper?

Why do you need to know the loft on any club, rather than the distance it goes?
Probably only to fit your gapping.
You walk into a golf shop and ask “ have you got a 52* wedge”
“ yes sir all the wedges are over there”
How would you find one without the number on the sole.
