How to choose golf clubs?

For your first golf clubs, we recommend buying a beginner set of clubs that include a driver and 3-wood, odd-numbered irons (3, 5, 7, 9) and a putter. Apart from the basic decisions between men’s and women’s clubs and right or left-handed clubs, you might have a choice between steel and graphite shaft clubs.

Subsequently, how do I pick the right golf clubs for me? A good rule of thumb in choosing the right flex is how far you can hit a driver on the fly. If you hit it 180 yards or less, buy Senior flex. If you hit it 20 yards farther, pick Ladies. And if you can hit the ball 225 to 250 yards, you’re ready for Normal flex shafts.

Beside the above, what golf clubs should I buy for my height? Using the ratio of every 6″ of height there should be a 1″ change in length then there should be a 1 ½” difference between their 5-irons. For example, recommend 36.5″ for the lady and 38″ for the man (or 36.75″ / 38.25″).

Considering this, what golf clubs should a beginner get? Instead, start with a driver, a putter, a sand wedge (it’s the club that has an “S” on the sole or a loft of 54 to 56 degrees) and supplement those with a 6-iron, an 8-iron, a pitching wedge, and a fairway wood or hybrid with 18-21 degrees of loft.

Amazingly, how do you work out what size golf clubs you need? To choose golf clubs that are the right fit, all you need is your height. If you’re between 5 ft 9” and 6 ft (1.5 m 23 cm and 1.8 m) tall, you should go with the standard length for golf clubs. If you’re taller than 6 ft (1.8 m), you’ll need longer clubs.When researching, “How much is a set of golf clubs?”, you may be in for some initial sticker shock. A complete set of golf clubs can cost as much as $1,000. The good news is, your average beginner to intermediate player will still play a good game at a much lower price point, in the $250 to $350 range.

What club should I use on a par 3?

Use a 9-iron on a short par-3 of about 130 yards. The 9-iron will help you get loft on the ball, and that’s important because you want the ball to come in high and soft.

How do I know if my golf clubs are the right size?

In irons, more so than in the driver, optimal club length is usually determined by a set of measurements that take into account the player’s height, arm length, and swing posture. Clearly, a player who is extremely tall would not benefit by using golf clubs designed for a player who is much shorter, and vice versa.

Are golf clubs one size fits all?

There is no such thing as one-size-fits-all golf clubs. You don’t buy suits off a one-size-fits-all rack, so why do the same with clubs? Golfers come in all shapes, sizes and swing skills, necessitating clubs with different lengths, weights, lofts and lie angles.
