How To Choose Ladies Golf Clubs

Add this Article to your website/blog

The rules of golf allow a maximum of 14 clubs in your bag when you are playing a game.Each club is designed for a different purpose and will hit the ball a different distance.

When you have used a club in practice, you will be aware of the distance you can hit the ball with that club. Also you will be aware of the hight of the ball, this is controlled by the angle of the club or the loft.

Usually clubs have a number on the head by which they can be identified. The higher the number, the lesser the distance the club will hit. Each club has a grip made of rubber, a shaft made of steel or graphite and a club head made of steel or alloy parts.

Clubs are divided into 3 different types:-

* The Wood

* The Irons

* Putters

THE WOOD

These are named because the original clubheads were made of wood. These days club heads are made of steel or various alloys.

* Ladies woods range from numbers 1 to 15.

* Ladies use a No.1 club or driver from the tee.

* Woods 3,4,5,7 and 9 are fairway woods.

* Some shots require a high loft from a poor lie and numbers 11, 13 and 15 woods can be used here.

IRONS

Sets of Irons are numbered from 1 to 9 and are usually have club heads made from metal or alloys. The higher the number on the club the less distance the ball will travel. For example a 4 iron will hit the ball further than a 7 iron.

Wedges, such as a pitching wedge or a sand wedge also come in the the iron catagory. A sand wedge is mainly used as the name would suggest to escape from bunkers, and generally wedges are used to get more height on the ball.

PUTTERS

Putters, on which there is very little loft, are generally used on or just off the green when the ground is smooth and firm. There is a vast range of putters available to the golfer giving wide choice of shapes, weights and sizes. In fact there is no right or wrong putter and you should choose whichever give you the best results.

HYBRID OR RESCUE CLUBS

The hybrid or rescue club as it has become known is a combination of the wood and iron, and is a big hit with lady golfers. Mostly it is used as a distance club, being more forgiving than a wood off the fairway. It has quickly become a standard part of the range of ladies clubs.

TAKING CARE OF CLUBS

Most golfers put head covers on their woods to protect the heads and stop them clanking against each other when on the move. You should dry woods off carefully if they become wet, wiping off any grass, mud or sand which accumulates on the head.

When rubber grips become dirty they can be washed with soap and water. When they become shinny they are ready for a change and this can be done by your local professional.

CHOOSING YOUR CLUBS

When you choose clubs there is a vast array available to you, but the most important thing is that you are comfortable and confident with them. There are lots of different brands claiming to do everything for you, but in the end its a personal choice.

After making the decision to buy new clubs you should try to find a seller where you are allowed to try out the types of clubs which you are considering purchasing.

You do not need to buy irons and woods of the same type or from the same manufacturer. Nor do you need to buy them all at the same time. Many players add different clubs at a later date, and buying a complete set is not always the best solution.

If you are just taking up the game, consider leaving the purchase of a driver until you have a little more experience. Initially just purchase a 3 or 5 wood. You may want to consider a half set of irons - 5,7,9,PW and SW - just to get the game going. You can always add more at a later date.
