A specialised chipper for confident, consistent shots around the green. The PING ChipR is a fully engineered short-game solution designed for golfers who lack confidence with a traditional wedge and frequently struggle with chunked or bladed chip shots. It blends the control of a putter with the loft of a short iron, making bump-and-run shots easier and more repeatable — without requiring any change to your putting technique. The result is a more reliable, lower-anxiety approach to every greenside situation.
With a loft of 38.5° (between an 8- and 9-iron), a standard putter length of 35", and a lie angle of 70°, the ChipR lets you set up at address just as you would over a putt — no need to adjust your technique or manipulate the clubface. A simple, putting-like stroke sends the ball rolling smoothly toward the hole. The ChipR is ideal for shots from the fringe, light rough, and fairway within approximately 40 yards (around 36.5 m) of the green.
Inspired by the PING Chipo — introduced by PING founder Karsten Solheim in the late 1970s — the modern ChipR is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to simplify their short game, eliminate the fear of chipping, and turn uncertain greenside situations into easy, repeatable bump-and-run shots.
The PING ChipR is engineered specifically for bump-and-run shots from within approximately 40 yards (36.5 m) of the green — whether you are playing from the fringe, light rough, or fairway. By combining a putter-length shaft (35"), an upright lie angle (70°), and a loft of 38.5°, the club encourages a natural, putting-style stance and stroke that most golfers can adopt immediately without any swing changes.
The putting-like technique eliminates the most common chip shot errors — chunking (hitting behind the ball) and blading (hitting the equator with the leading edge) — by keeping the motion simple, repeatable, and low-risk. Golfers who have struggled with inconsistent chipping will find this approach dramatically improves their distance control and confidence around the green.
The ChipR face features precision-milled MicroMax grooves, which are spaced more tightly and are more numerous than grooves on a standard wedge. This increased groove density maximises the contact area between the face and the ball at impact, generating consistent spin (rotation) that stabilises the ball's flight and controls how far it rolls out after landing.
Consistent spin is especially important for chip shots of varying lengths: too little spin leads to unpredictable run-out, while too much can cause the ball to check up short of the target. MicroMax grooves help golfers produce predictable, repeatable trajectories across a range of distances. The compact profile of the head also instils confidence at address, making it easier to commit to the shot.
The graphite version of the ChipR is fitted with the PING Alta CB Slate shaft, a lightweight graphite option that promotes a smooth, controlled stroke and is particularly well-suited to recreational golfers, seniors, or players with a slower swing speed who benefit from a lighter overall club weight.
The Alta CB Slate delivers a mid-to-high launch angle and a soft feel through impact, complementing the ChipR's low-stress stroke pattern. At a standard length of 35" — matching a standard putter — the shaft allows the same comfortable, consistent setup position for every chip, removing one more variable from an already simplified short-game technique. Flex options available include Soft-Regular, Regular, and Stiff to suit a range of swing tempos.
The ChipR's cambered (curved) sole is specifically designed to glide smoothly through varying turf conditions — including light rough, fringe grass, and bare fairway lies — without the sole digging in or catching on the ground behind the ball. This makes it far more versatile and consistent than a flat-soled wedge, particularly for golfers who struggle to deliver the club cleanly to the ball.
The low face height sits between that of a conventional putter and a standard wedge, which helps the golfer make solid, centred contact naturally and keeps the loft presentation consistent through impact. Combined with 8° of effective bounce, the sole design ensures the club interacts predictably with the turf on every shot, regardless of lie or grass type.

Shaft: PING Alta CB Slate — Graphite (available in Soft-Regular, Regular, and Stiff flex)
Grip: PING 360 Dyla-Wedge Lite — 3/4" longer than a standard grip with reduced taper, allowing golfers to choke down for increased trajectory versatility and shot control.
The PING Colour Code Chart is a fitting tool used to determine the optimal club specifications — including lie angle and shaft length — based on a golfer's physical measurements (height and wrist-to-floor distance) and swing dynamics. Each colour in the chart represents a specific combination of club specifications tailored to match the player's natural swing plane and posture at address.
Lie Angle: The angle between the shaft and the ground at address. The lie angle directly influences the direction of the ball at impact — a lie angle that is too flat or too upright can cause shots to miss consistently left or right of the target, even with an otherwise good swing.
Shaft Length: Shaft length affects a golfer's posture, swing plane, and ultimately both distance and accuracy. Longer shafts can generate more distance but may reduce control; shorter shafts typically offer greater precision at the cost of some distance.
Grip Size: Correct grip size affects comfort, control, and feel throughout the swing. Golfers with larger hands may prefer thicker grips for better control and reduced wrist action, while those with smaller hands often benefit from thinner grips for improved feel and feedback.
Using the colour code chart, golfers and fitting specialists can identify the appropriate colour code for their individual game. A taller golfer with a flatter swing plane will require a different colour code than a shorter golfer with a more upright swing — ensuring every PING club performs exactly as intended for its owner.
