Purchasing any of this golf clubs is useless if you did not match your personal preference into buying the golf club with specific purposes.

In buying golf clubs, start with the basics. The typical golf club set is made of golf drivers, golf putters, golf wedges and golf irons. Each type of golf club is used with different swing speeds and purpose. Learning the use of each kind of golf club will help the golf beginner learn easily and achieve better results.

Iron golf clubs, which are typically available in several sizes, are suitable for making shorter shots. However, factors such as size and materials used for the golf club shaft may yield different results.

Steel golf club shafts and graphite golf club shafts are the most commonly used materials. Steel golf club shaft is more affordable, longer lasting, but weighs more than other kinds. It is usually used for fast swings. On the other hand, a graphite golf club shaft is lighter, but is usually the most expensive golf club. It is used for long-distance shots and slower swings.

The flexibility of a golf club is called a flex. The lesser the bend in one’s shaft, the more control and powerful you will have on the golf club. Shaft flex can be categorized into five levels – extra stiff, stiff, medium, whippy and ladies flex. Extra stiff golf clubs are usually used by professionals; stiff flex are used by younger golfers; medium flex are suitable for average golfers of all levels; whippy flex are best for tall ladies and senior golfers; and ladies flex, as the name suggests, are perfect for women.
