Choosing the Correct Golf Club

by Guy Phillips

Golf club selection is vital to getting out on the green and playing a good round of golf. Knowing which clubs to buy (and when to use them) is one of the most essential elements of learning how to play a solid game. The standard golf set includes three woods, ten irons and a putter. However, selecting your golf clubs will vary depending on your level of golf expertise; here, we break down how to select golf clubs for beginner, intermediate, and advanced golfers. This article will have you playing like a pro with your new clubs in no time at all.

For beginners, buying shorter clubs will maximize your potential to have more precise club-to-ball contact. Woods heads are larger and flatter than irons and recommended for beginners because it will increase the distance of the ball when struck. One specific club type suggestion for beginners is the mallet putter. Mallet putters are very well aligned and will make it easier for shorter more precise putts.

Golfers of the intermediate level have different priorities when choosing their golf clubs. The intermediate does not need clubs that offer quite as much forgiveness as the beginner; instead, as an intermediate you should feel free to branch out and choose clubs that give you more control.

An intermediate player may still want to use a slightly oversized driver to help with ball contact. At this level of play, the shaft selection starts to play an increased role in ball control. Choose a shaft that will complement your swing speed. While you may have gotten quite comfortable with the same putter you used as a beginner, you might also want to branch out by selecting a maxed mallet putter.

Golfers that have trained to the advanced level, have a stronger command of the concepts and make much more precise shots. Advanced players will start to add their own style and finesse into the swing by choosing the correct clubs. More advanced irons will allow for much better mastery of the ball.

Locate a driver with a bit less loft (degree of the angle at which the face of the club lies relative to a perfectly vertical level). When your deciding on a driver, it is important to consider your swing speed. Every driver will affect your swing speed in a different way.

Club selection will impact every facet of your game and is one of the most important decisions you will make. So, take some time to figure out your level of playing skill, and then choose your golf clubs accordingly. Club selection is going to determine how well you play so it's important to take the time and select the right clubs for your level of play.
