How Do You Buy Golf Clubs?
Friday, October 15th, 2010It can be quite confusing, especially to the beginning golfer, trying to decide what golf clubs to buy. A set of clubs can cost a few hundred dollars or several thousand dollars. There are clubs that are cast in a mold and others that are made from forged steel. There are different types of shafts and different groove patterns. Hundreds of popular Drivers, all claiming to hit the ball straighter and farther and when it comes to putters, there are more choices than one could imagine. My advice would be to purchase a modestly priced set when you are first learning to play the game. For maybe $300.00 to $400.00 you can get a complete set of decent clubs and a golf bag. Practice and play with them and if your interest and skills develop, eventually you can buy a better set.
Golf Clubs Help
Wednesday, September 1st, 2010If you’re in the market for a new set of golf clubs and need help in deciding on the makeup of your set, consider adding hybrid clubs to your bag. Hybrid golf clubs are a combination of fairway woods and irons, making them versatile weapons in your arsenal.
A hybrid club has a club head that is similar to a fairway wood, with a low center of gravity that can help to get a ball airborne. However, unlike fairway woods, hybrids have shorter shafts like irons, which make them easier to control. Consider swapping out the long irons in your golf set with hybrid clubs. They will help you to hit the ball farther and with more control than hard to hit long irons, which require greater skill to hit.
A Golf Tip Just for Women
Thursday, August 26th, 2010Most women can not hit a ball as far as a man. To compensate for the basic difference in physical strength between the sexes, women usually play from a tee that is considerably shorter to the green then the men’s tee. All other aspects of the game are unchanged. If a woman has 180 yards left to the green, she may have a difficult time getting the ball all the way to the hole. Instead of carrying all the usual irons in your bag, you might replace your 3 and 4 iron with a 5 and 7 wood. These clubs are actually easier to hit off the fairway and can get you greater distance than an iron. A 7 wood has the loft of an 8 or 9 iron, but can hit as far as a 5 iron.
