    Default Odyssey Chipper thoughts?

    I have space in my bag for one more club, has anyone tested the new chipper odyssey has brought out?
    Chippers have always interested me, but never really come across one I have liked the look of... until now anyway.

    Some of the SEQ courses have some funny grass around the greens and I just never know what club to hit. Thinking it could also be handy coming out of trees if you have a limited swing.

    See them everywhere on scrapes courses , I did wonder now Odyssey have brought one out will they be sexy ? Great for chipping and running , but seen guys use them on par 3's up to 150 long , or from the 150 markers . Commonly called a cheat stick around here , and used by guys who cant chip off tight lies

    One of the other reasons I never got around to getting one . I thought that perseption may have changed, but maybe not.

    It wouldn't be any worse than using a Odyssey two-ball putter.

    A lot of those that take the piss would probably have more success with one.

    I've seen these in the flesh; for a chipper, they actually look quite good.
