Absolutely ****** hilarious thread!
If someone wants to use a chipper or anything else, how exactly does it affect YOUR game?
Few years ago I played a guy in singles match who had a hickory shafted putter, shoes that had seen better days and generally not a label to his name, he thumped me 5&4 and if I remember he was giving me 8 shots-I played well....think he was off 2. I'll learn more watching the 2 handicapper playing with any old club than the 20 odd handicapper using the top of the range gear that probably isn't utilised to it's full capacity anyway!

Lifted straight from a post in the Out Of Bounds section.
I've noticed over the last couple of weeks that the bad language is creeping it's way back in here again.
Lifted from Mike Harris's post earlier.
"Much of it is common sense and also in the sub text of each forum already but so it's all here in black and white here goes...
* What is not acceptable...
3. Posts that contain swearing. I feel this also includes the use of asterisked out swear words. I think everyone on here is smart enough to be able to find non offensive ways of expressing themselves without having to resort to swearing and offending any other former.
* Moderator responsibilities/authorities
1. To ensure the above guidelines are adhered to by forum members and that the ‘reputation of the forum’ (see below) is not damaged."
Sorry to bring it up. But we have even more junior members than ever now. Not that they aren't capable of adding to the problem. But surely as adults on here we have a responsability to adhere to the rules that we agreed to.
Okay. I'll go away now!!

since it's confession time I too used a chipper when I started, after all it's only another specialised wedge - lob wedge anyone?
and for an absolute beginner it's a lot more practical than chipping at right angles all the time (also leads to a faster pace around the course so I'm surprised some of you aren't insisting on high 'cappers using them!).
it's also much more user friendly for the cack-handed shot out from the shrubbery than anything else in the bag.

Totally agree, my friend uses some battered clubs and the woods are really woods with steel shafts, but fella he can drive it 340 easy when on target and plays off 12.

When I first read this I thought it was another GM comp to win a proper wedge by completing the phrase (a la cereal packet): "Men who use chippers...might as well play with flippers/kippers/zippers etc...".

This thread has changed my mind of chippers, they can save shots and we all know the 15 yard knee trembler!!! You can thin it through the back or get it just right and the chipper seems to take that pressure away in the right hands practiced.

And before anyone says it, I know by posting it will bring it back up
