When you think about getting some golf clubs then the most common assumption is that the more expensive a club is the better – I mean that is what the expensive adverts tell us right? All the pros use expensive clubs so they must be the best? Wrong!
For starters, the clubs the pros use are probably the WORST clubs that you could think of buying, why? Because they suit pros so if you aren’t one then they are not for you!. The kind of clubs that a pro uses are devoid of any of the extra design elements that give more forgiveness, this is to give the player more control over what they want the shot to do.
For the normal level of player then the sweetspot is just going to be too small and your ball will end up in the car park somewhere when you slice and dice it. You need something which has extra weight added to the back corners and/or extra rigidity built into the face to give a larger sweetspot so the ball goes straight even when you hit it slightly off centre.
Another reason that more expensive is not always better is because we all like different setups, and if you think that buying a set of clubs from a top brand guarantees you will like them, then think again. You need to take into consideration, the weight of the club, the weight of the head, the shaft type, even how the shaft connects to the head, all of these factors can affect the way you play and the feel of the club as you use it.
First of all you need to get yourself down to a golf shop to test out a few different types, get to a shop that is next to a golf course or driving range so you can test clubs out, try different weights and shafts and types, and find what you prefer, then head online and find some golf club recommendations like this Pinemeadow Command BK Driver Review or this Pinemeadow Xeon Titan Putter Review so you can find some great clubs.
