How To Choose Golf Clubs
One of the most confusing things about getting started in golf, is not knowing how to choose golf clubs that are most suitable for your game. Even for people who have been playing golf for a while it can be difficult to know what to look for.
In this article I’m going to run you through the steps you should go through when you are choosing what golf clubs you will buy. By using this organized approach you will be able to choose golf clubs that will be good for your game…and hopefully good for your bank account.
Know What You Need
Too many people buy golf clubs for the wrong reason. Then what ends up happening is the club doesn’t suit their swing, they have to sell it, losing a little bit of money, and they have to look for something else.
You should always match a club to your swing – never the other way around. Think about your game and where your weaknesses are. Talk to your pro and see what they think. Hit some balls with the pro watching and get their opinion. Use a launch monitor to get some numbers.
All this information can then be used by an experienced professional – either a club maker/fitter or golf pro – to match you up with the most suitable equipment.
Trial & Error
Once you know what you need, make up a shortlist of equipment that meets these requirements and give them a try. Before you choose a golf club you should always try to get it in your hands and hit balls with it, even if you are going to buy it online.
See if your golf club has some demo stock in the pro shop you can use. Or visit one of the big retail outlets with indoor facilities you can use to trial the club. By doing this you will cut down the money you waste on the wrong products
Price Research
Narrow your shortlist down to one or two finalists, and do your price research. Check all sources, both off and online. Get a good idea of what the price range for the product is.
One thing I would always do is take the best price you can find on the internet, and see if your local retailer can match it. All things being equal buying from a retailer is better – it makes after sales service much easier if there are ever any problems.
If you can wait, look to hold off until the end of the season when prices will take a fall. Or check for new models that may soon be replacing the one you are interested in – your product may be in line for a clearance price cut in the not too distant future.
With money tightening up the way it is, following the above approach will give you a good approach to finding the right club for your game, and hopefully save you some money in the process as well.
