Golf Club: Main Equipment Used in the Sport Golf

Mark Ralston — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 06:56:12 +0000

If you are interested to play golf and eventually be known as a pro in this sport, then you must start shopping yourself a golf club now. It is definitely one of the very first things you must secure so you can finally start playing golf.

Basically, a golf club is an equipment used to hit a golf ball. It is made up of a shaft with a grip or a lance and a clubhead. At present, it comes in five classes " wood, iron, wedge, hybrid and putter. The most popular among the five are the wood, iron, and putter. Woods are the favorite clubs of golfers who are fond of making shots that cover long distances. Irons are perfect clubs for golfers who love making different shots. And finally, putters are special-class clubs for golfers who like rolling the ball into the cup.

Two other classes, wedge and hybrid, are also highly effective though they are not so popular. Wedges are iron clubs that come with a higher loft compared to a 9 iron. They are the favorite clubs of golfers who love making short-distance and high-altitude shots. While hybrids are clubs that share same features with woods and irons. They are clubs well-loved by golfers who are fond of making long-distance shots with incomparable swings.

Of course when you finally shop for golf clubs, you can always go for your own choices. But according to the pros, if you are an amateur, there are some classes that you must avoid. They say you must avoid irons specifically the 3- and 4-irons as many people say they are inefficient to use. You can't make any hits using these clubs. Instead of having them, you can try hybrids which are believed to be amateur-friendly.

To enjoy a round of golf, you can have a set of golf clubs which should not go beyond more than 14 clubs and more or less should consist of a club of your choice, two fairway woods, a driver, irons from 3 to 9, a putter, a sand wedge, and a pitching wedge.

Callaway Hyper X Driver

Chris — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 06:26:20 +0000

Generate ball speed thru the entire club face
Callaway commenced to create breakthroughs in enhancing ball speed. Hoping to set new standards in titanium driver marketplace, they did just that with the Callaway Hyper X Driver series. With their invention of Hyberbolic Face technology, they've opened up the entire club face to be the sweet spot when driving golf balls down the fairways.

What is Hyperbolic Face Technology?
Well, for starters, this isn't something that just happened overnight. Not some new fancy term just to sell another piece of golf equipment. It's actually technology that was three years in the making and redefines the velocity at which golf balls leave the club face.

They've strategically shaped the thickness of the face of the club leading to better impact efficiecy. What this has done is largely improve the actual striking region of the clubface. See typical drivers have a space a little larger than the golf ball that would be considered the "sweet" spot in the club. Not with the Callaway Hyper X driver, they've effectively made almost the entire face of the club the "sweet" spot with this Hyperbolic technology and greatly increasing drive distance in the process. If you sometimes miss hit the sweet spot, this club could save you a few strokes.

Why the Nine-Iron is a Good Golf Iron

Chris — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 06:39:19 +0000

Most golfers have a nine-iron in their golf bag, but perhaps many golfers do not know exactly what its intended used is. This is, probably, even more true for beginner golfers who are still trying to figure the use of every golf iron in their bag.

The nine-iron is not to be used if the ball is farther than 130 yards from the green. If it the ball is any further back, he or she would want to choose a seven-iron or eight-iron. Although the nine-iron does have a highly angled club head, for a regular golf iron, it simply does not get the loft you would get from a lofting, pitching, chipping or sand wedge. However, the nine-iron does offer more distance than the wedge clubs.

At this point, those new to playing golf may ask why the nine-iron is even included in the golf bag. It is heavy enough as it is. The nine-iron does serve a purpose, though. It is a good short-range utility club that provides good elevation from the fairway and back to the green. It can also be used to chip with and also works well as a sand wedge in the event a sand wedge is needed but not available.

There are times when a nine-iron can be used as a substitute for the seven-iron or eight-iron. If the golfer finds him or herself 180 from the hole, a nine-iron can be used but with some extra thought. The golfer may want to consider intentionally blading the golf ball to gain some additional distance, though this would sacrifice some elevation. Such shots are sometimes required during a game since a seven-iron or eight-iron might be too much club for the distance. Of course, golf courses vary resulting in much depending on that course and the obstacles the golfer may be facing for the shot in question.

For chipping within 100 yards, the nine-iron is one of the better clubs to choose. The golfer can get more elevation with the ball, yet cut the distance, if the ball is placed in back of his or her stance. Keeping his or her feet closer together makes it difficult for the golfer to strike the ball as hard which will result in the ball not flying the green (when a ball carries over the green when hit).

Additionally, the nine-iron is a good club if the golfer is playing a short par 3 hole which are as short as 100 yards on some golf courses. In fact, using anything more than a nine-iron will be too much. Stance is important here as well since the golfer does not want to drive the ball too far. A closed stance in this case will help him or her limit the distance the ball travels, and placing the ball further back in his or her stance will cause the ball to get loft faster. If struck correctly, the ball should fly perfectly onto the green, hopefully rolling into the cup or at least close to it.

As you see, the nine-iron serves a good purpose and is, certainly, a club to have in your bag!
