When you think about getting some golf clubs then the most common assumption is that the more expensive a club is the more it will help our game – I mean that is what the adverts on TV tell us right? All the pros use expensive clubs so they must be the best? Wrong!
For starters, the clubs the pros use are possibly the WORST clubs that you could think of buying, why? Because they are for professionals!. The kind of clubs that a pro uses don’t have any of the extra design elements that give more forgiveness, they may not need the extras but I know I sure do.
For the average 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 things, and if you think that buying a nice set of clubs from the top of the price range 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 things 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 with a driving range attached and borrow some clubs to try out, try different weights and shafts and types, and find what you like, then head online and find some golf club reviews like this Pinemeadow Command BK Driver Review or this Pinemeadow Command Q Irons Review so you can find some great clubs.
