What is a good golf club for a beginner at a driving range?

admin — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 09:30:36 +0000

I just took one lesson at the driving range, and the instructor was nice enough to give me a used golf club. Even though, it allows me to practice after my lesson, it is old and worn out, and may even affecting my performance. How am I to pick out a driver that is "right" for me?

I would suggest a 5 iron. A 5 iron is sort of the middle club in a complete set. I would suggest you also get a 3 wood just for practice using a longer club,a pitching wedge to work on short shots, and a putter. Usually people get bored doing the same thing over and over with 3 clubs you can vary your practice.

The big thing when you get a used club is make sure the grip is fairly new. The pro at your club can have it changed for a few dollars ($5-$8). Avoid grips that are old, dry, hard, and slick.

How easy is it to damage a golf club shaft?

admin — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 07:14:30 +0000

I had a golf bag in my trunk and someone put a rigid 20-30 lb suitcase in the middle of the bag, and a 15-20lb bag on the heads. I drove around for a while on a rough road in heavy traffic, so lots of hard turns and potholes. It looks like the club shaft that was directly beneath the suitcase is slightly bent, but it's hard to tell.

These are steel, regular flex shafts.

Not wicked hard but yes it is hard unless you try to intenttionaly break it.

What is the best brand for golf club for beginner?

admin — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 06:00:15 +0000

I've started playing golf 2 months ago and my wife give me a $800 gift card from one of the golf course. I want to buy a club set, any suggestions?

First off let me give respect to your wife. WOW! What a gift!! Although I must say, she probably has no idea what she just got herself into. Golf is like crack. Once you bomb your first drive down the center of the fairway or hit that perfect lazer like iron shot to within a foot of the pin, YOU ARE HOOKED! No doubt about it. The more you play, the more you "HAVE TO" play. Golf will creep into every part of your life. Dinner conversations, taking divots in your front yard, making practice swings while standing in the frozen food isle at the grocery store, you name it and golf will be there.Good luck to BOTH of you.;-)

As for your question, I would Highly recomend COBRA irons and woods. Many people dont know that COBRA is manufactured by the same company that makes titleist as well as footjoy and pinnacle( Acushnet Company ). Cobra is what is called a "GAME IMPROVEMENT" brand. That means they are more geared to help the beginner that is really interested in the game improve his/her game and keep it enjoyable.You definantly do not want to buy a model that you see the guys on tour playing. These guys are PROS and they know how to use pro model equipment. I myself play all COBRA equipmentfrom my driver and woods to my irons and wedges and even my putter. They are the most forgiving clubs you can buy. What that means is that even if you do not hit the ball in the center of the clubface( also known as off center hits) you still have a tremendous amount of accuracy and feel. This is created by what is called cavity back design. What that means is that most of the weight of the clubhead is placeg around the edges of the face leaving a CAVITY in the center. I would recomend the cobra s9 set for you. If the club where your wife got the gift card from does not carry COBRA on the display rack they can certinly order them for you. Go to any major golf retailer and try them out ask them to Fit you for a set of clubs. Take that info back to the club and have them order them for you.

Just remember, no clubs can take the place of a few good lessons and plenty of practice( even if it is in the frozen isle!)
Good luck!!!!
