How to pick your clubs

Thursday, June 29th, 2006

Are you in the market for a new set of golf clubs?

Whether you’re a seasoned golfer who takes to the course several times a week, or whether you consider yourself to be a somewhat infrequent weekend-only golfer, itís important to your game that you have the golf club that fits your body and swing-type.

When purchasing a new golf club, there are several key factors to take into consideration. Read below for a brief synopsis:

Length of golf club

Your golf club should be about the same length as the distance between your naval and the ground. Many experienced golfers will have clubs custom-made to fit their bodies. Before you make the investment in a custom-sized golf club, we recommend practicing with golf clubs of varying lengths.

If you belong to a golfing club, you can probably rent practice clubs from the pro shop. If not, then head over to the nearest public practice range and rent a bag full of golf clubs of varying sizes for an afternoon.

Size of the golf club head

The size of the golf club head makes the biggest difference to the novice golfer. The larger the size of the head means the larger the area on your golf club that can make contact with the golf ball.

If youíre a beginner, you may want to investigate clubs that have larger heads. Yet, keep in mind that if the head it large, the golf club will also be tougher to control. You have more wait to grapple with and more surface area to be influenced by the wind and velocity of the club as it swings down to whack the golf ball.

Shaft /Head Type

There are some generous guidelines to follow when choosing a shaft type. Below are quick overviews of the two most frequently used golf club materials.

Iron:

durable and hard, making your golf club easy to control and resilient to breakage.

Titanium:

best for novice golfers because its lightweight material allows for a bigger head, which most beginners prefer.

Now that you have a brief overview of golf club purchasing advice, go out and find the set of golf clubs thatís right for you!
