Knowing More About Golf Sport With A Golf Club Starter Set


When people hit the links for the first time, they have an idea of whether or not they are going to enjoy the challenge of the game of golf. However, beforerunning out and plopping down several hundred dollars on the nest clubs that fit their budget, they may want to consider buying a golf club starter set until they know they want to continue with thesport.

Although a spouse, neighbor or friend probably has a boat load of used clubs lying around the house, but trying to learn to play with clubs with old worn out grips is like learning to drive a car with no tires on the wheels.

In most cases, a golf club starter set can be bought for around $100 and if later you decide the game is too stressful for you, or not what you thought it was you can always save them for a younger relative who may have shown an interest in the game. At worst, a few years later you toss them out and you are out $100.

Typically, a golf club starter set will contain a driver and one fairway wood, a couple two or three mid range irons and a putter. Some may include a wedge and a cheap bag, but most contain five or six of the most commonly used clubs. If you are not happy with the clubs contained in a golf club starter set, you can also buy them one at a time and put together your own set.

Remember that Size Matters with Golf Clubs

Most of the golf club starter sets sold in discount stores will be less expensive than in a pro shop or sporting goods store, but they are made to accommodate the average person. If you are considerably taller, or shorter than average, putting together your own golf club starter set may be a better idea.

The length of the shaft is probably the most important consideration for someone just learning the game. Clubs that are too long may spend a lot of time buried in the turf. On the flip side a golf club starter set that is too short will find the head flying over the ball or topping it, burying it in the ground in front of the tee. Either way, the new golfer will quickly become exasperated with the game and walk away without really knowing if they enjoy it or not.
