Being the Best Golf Player-Part 5

Continuation of Part 4...


Listed below are the various types of clubs you will want to consider.

Woods
Woods are usually used for the long shots, because the swing the club is very easy. A typical golfer's bag will have a driver (called a 1-Wood) and a couple of fairway woods (3- and/or 5-wood). A driver is the longest club (usually 45 inches) making it the toughest to control during a swing.
Irons
Irons feature thin club heads with grooves on it. Experienced players opt for a blade style iron while beginners tend to get a cavity-back style. A blade-style has a club head with a full back, whereas a cavity back's club head is hollow. It is hollowed out to create a perimeter weighting effect helpful for less-experienced golfers. Short irons are the easiest to hit, while the long ones are the hardest. It is usually used to play shorter kind of shots. The shorter the iron, the more loft there is and for beginners, the more loft, the better.
Putters
Putters are the clubs which is most often used in the game and come in club head styles of blade, heel-toe and mallet. Lengths come in belly putters, standard and broomstick (long) putters
Utility clubs/hybrids
These clubs are one of the most popular among all clubs. It combines both the features of woods and irons, and are best for beginners who may not want to buy too many clubs straight out.
The new clubs that we purchase will usually fit individuals at the average height of 5'10" for men and 5'5" for women. If you are significantly shorter or taller than these figures, you should get your club fitted to your height. When buying new golf clubs, these are just some of the things you will need to take into consideration in order to purchase the club set that will satisfy your requirements.
