Choosing a Ladies Golf Set
Golf is now more popular than ever and there are vast amounts of women who are taking up the sport. Golf is a fantastic way to meet new people and to get fit. However choosing a new golf set is extremely challenging and frustrating.
Purchasing a golf set can be expensive and it is essential to be sure on what you are buying. You do not want to waste money on something that will only last 6 months. Any professional golfer started their career with a beginner set of golf clubs and it has taken them time to practice so they can work their way up. As a golfers career moves on they progress onto more expensive and advanced equipment. It is essential to make sure your first set provides the best stepping stones to a good golfing career.
There are hundreds of manufacturers who have recognized the progression in golf and designed ladies golf sets. No longer do ladies have to play with men’s clubs. A large variety of ladies golf equipment is available from beginners up to intermediate. New package sets come with graphite shafts making them lighter. Women find with graphite shafts they can control the club a lot easier and gain a faster club head speed.
When looking for a set look for one which contains irons, woods and hybrids. A hybrid replaces the harder to hit longer irons making it easier for women. Most professionals now use a hybrid and find that it gives them more control on long distance green shots.
Your irons should have a large cavity back making them easier to hit. Find an iron with an extreme perimeter weighting that raises both moment of inertia and centre of gravity. Moment of inertia prevents the club head from twisting on impact giving a beginner more accuracy when striking the ball.
Look for oversized heads as this makes it as easy as possible to hit the ball. Every beginner struggles with hitting the ball so why not make the heads larger?
Lots of beginners give up golf very early as they find it frustrating however if you persist and buy the correct equipment you will enjoy the game. Make sure that you have coaching as well as practicing. Golf is a very complex sport and if you do not have a good instructor you will never learn good habits.
The bag is also important so have a look at how many pockets they have. Makes sure you have enough room to put everything you need in the bag. Golf bags come in a variety of shapes and colour’s so shop around for something that you like.
