Make The Best Deal Of Golf Clubs

Make The Best Deal Of Golf Clubs

Golfers all need a whole set of golf equipment, which include golf drivers, golf balls, golf irons, golf putters, woods. When you are going to buy a set of golf clubs, how can you get the great prices on them? First you should find which one you want, and then get the deal.

So you should search online to find the one you want to buy, you can try out as many brands and styles as you can. There are many styles and prices that you can choose from, such as callaway x-22 irons, callaway ft i-brid irons, and titleist ap2 irons. You can try out them all. Then you continue refining your search until you’ve found the clubs you want. Make a note of the price and some detail of these you watched.

Then you’re ready to shop the internet, where you can find some the lowest prices on the best clubs. To compete with each other, and to muscle out their brick-and-mortar competition, online retailers have to sell their wares at rock bottom prices.

Plus they not only want to give you a good price, the lower operating overhead allows them to do so. For you, that can mean great deals on your golf clubs, as well as golf bags, balls, clothing, and anything else you need for your game.

Cyberspace Pirates

Be careful, the internet is a refuge for crooks and thieves hoping to take your money. The internet abounds with scam artists who set up fake auction ads or entire web sites with the sole purpose of stealing your hard-earned cash. Once you send it to them, you can kiss your money good-bye. If you see unbelievable prices on golf clubs, the old adage “too good to be true” probably holds.

Make a safe purchase

Once you’ve found the clubs you want at a fabulous price, for example, you want to buy the callaway ft i-brid irons, you should proceed with caution to make your purchase before you buy it. Never provide any personal information to someone over e-mail. Next, check out any retailer on the web before you purchase from them. See if they have a phone number and a real address. You can even go so far as to research on a comparison site like MySimon.com, or on the Better Business Bureau’s site.

Enjoy your golf purchase and enjoy your golf life, just make sure you get the right golf clubs for yourself!

Some Points You should Consider before Buying Golf Clubs

Some Points You should Consider before Buying Golf Clubs

A common myth is that the higher the price of a club, the better your game will be: “This club cost me 9.00, I must be playing great now!”. Just think about it, are drivers really worth 0 to 00 and iron sets 00 to ,000? The big manufacturers spend millions of $ $ to promote their stuff and still make huge profits. Who you think pays for that? Paying high prices does not lower ones handicap, but a properly chosen club will, even a cheap one.

1. The shaft is the axle of the club, the better the shaft, the better the club.

2. Shaft flex has a major effect on the feel of a golf club and a medium effect on distance, thus an important determination in choosing clubs. If you do not know your speed swing (mph or km/h), some local golf shops can measure it for you. Otherwise the following chart may be helpful.

SWING SPEED CONVERSION CHAR

LADIES FLEX

Driver speed swing less than 60 mph (100 km/h). Driver carry distance less than 180 yds. Club used from 150 yds. a 3 iron or wood.

SENIOR or A FLEX

Driver speed swing 60-75 mph (100-120 km/h). Driver carry distance 180-210 yds. Club used from 150yds. a 4 iron.

REGULAR FLEX

Driver speed swing 75-84 mph (120-135 km/h). Driver carry distance 210-240 yds. Club used from 150 yds. a 5 or 6 iron.

STIFF FLEX

Driver speed swing 84-93 mph (130-150 km/h). Driver carry distance 240-260 yds. Club used from 150 yds. a 6 or 7 iron.

X-STIFF FLEX

Driver speed swing over 93 mph (150 km/h). Driver carry distance 260+ yds. Club used from 150 yds. a 8 or 9 iron.

3. Shallow face metalwoods are well established game improvement clubs on the market. Generally, shallow face metalwoods are easy to hit and extremely accurate due to their low center of gravity – something every golfer will appreciate.

4. Beginners and novice players choosing a set make-up, should consider eliminating the 2, 3 and 4 irons from their set, replacing those hard to hit irons with #3 and #5 hybrid clubs.

5. All golfers should use standard length clubs unless he or she is short or tall. Standard length clubs allow players to hit the ball on center a higher percentage of the time, thus increasing distance and accuracy. In recent years, light weight Titanium driver heads and Ultralight graphite shafts have extended driver playing lengths from a standard 43-431/2″ to 44-46″. This is good news and bad news. The good news is, when you increase length, you will increase distance. The longer the club, the more club head speed generated , thus more distance. The bad news is, the longer the club the more difficult it is to control, thus less accuracy. To put this into perspective, the following information will be helpful. A driver hit on center at 43″ = 250 yds. 43 1/2″= 262 yds. 44″ = 270 yds. 44 1/2″ = 275 yds. 45″ = 275-280 yds. As you can see a significant increase in distance is achieved up to 44″. After 44″, distance increases only a minimal amount . CONCLUSION – It is not worth sacrificing accuracy for the minimal amount of distance gained past 44″. Keep driver playing lengths to 44″ or less.

6. In case you are not ‘standard’, determining the proper length for your clubs is very easy and free of guess-work by taking a wrist to floor measurement. You need a helper. In street shoes, stand at ‘attention’ with your feet about a foot apart. Stand straight, shoulders up, but your arms relaxed by your side. Have your helper measure (RH players) from your left wrist at the crease where it meets your hand, to the floor. LH players measure from right wrist. Shorter players will measure in the low 30″s, the average height players in the mid 30″s, and tall players 35″ & up.

The values in the table then show you (in inches) how much longer or shorter than the standard length your clubs should be. For a more accurate set of measurements you can visit http://www.golfshoppingshop.com

7. STEEL SHAFTS vs. GRAPHITE SHAFTS – These are general recommendations:

A. Men (Age 13-55)

Steel shafted irons, graphite shafted woods.

B. Men (Age 55+)

Graphite shafted irons and woods. Note the switch to graphite irons. As we get older the speed swing slows, lighter weight graphite shafts may recover some of the lost speed, thus regaining some lost distance. A switch to a softer flex shaft (senior, A-flex) is also recommended.

C. Ladies (All Ages)

Graphite shafted irons and woods. The lighter weight graphite shafts are much easier for ladies to swing than heavier steel shafts. A little more costly, worth the investment.

8. Loft angle has a major effect on distance off the tee, so its important to choose the correct loft for your driving club. The slower speed swingers (ladies, seniors and some regular flex players) need higher lofted driving clubs. Increased loft will allow a better launch angle, higher trajectory, greater carry, thus more distance! This may be a surprise to a lot of long time players who have always thought less loft, more distance. Case in point. Many regular and senior flex players have fallen prey to the ProLine model hype and purchased 0.00+ drivers at 10 or less degrees, only to find they were hard to get airborn and produced low line drives. Live and learn. Faster speed swingers do require less loft to obtain maximum distance. The following information should be helpful in choosing the correct loft for you driving club.

RECOMMENDED LOFTS FOR DRIVING CLUBS:

LADIES and SENIOR

shaft flex players with less than 60 mph (100 km/h) speed swing, 13-15 degrees.

SENIOR

shaft flex players with 60-75 mph (100-120 km/h) speed swing, 13 degrees.

REGULAR

shaft flex players with 75-84 mph (120-135 km/h) speed swing, 12 degrees.

STIFF

shaft flex players with 84-93 mph (130-150 km/h) speed swing, 10-11 degrees.

STIFF or X-STIFF

shaft players with more than 93 mph (150 km/h) speed swing, 10 or less degrees.NOTE: Because of certain swing movements high ball hitters may want to decrease 2 degrees from current driver loft.

9. Slicing the ball off the tee may be the single most problem confronting golfers. The face angle of the club has a major effect on accuracy off the tee. Face angles of drivers are open, square or closed. Closed face drivers come 1-6 degrees closed. Slicers need closed face drivers for correction。Expect a 5-7 yard correction in slice for every degree the face is closed if your current driver has a square face angle.

EXAMPLE: You aim for the middle of a 30 yard wide fairway using a square face driver, but your ball ends up 5 yards in the rough. Same shot, using a driver with a face angle 2 degrees closed, your slice would be corrected approximately 12 yards, which puts you 7 yards in the fairway!

10. DISTANCE – What makes a golf ball go far? There are 4 basic reasons to how far a player can hit a golf ball.
a. The composition of the golf ball. Some balls go farther than others. Any name brand 100 compression ball will go farther than a 70 compression driving range ball.
b. Loft of club. Less loft for faster speed swingers = more distance. More loft for slower speed swingers = more distance.
c. Length of club. The longer the club (up to a certain point, see above) the more distance.
d. Last and most important is swing speed. The more clubhead speed a golfer can generate at impact, the more distance. Why do you think Tiger Woods hits it as far as he does? He generates 200 km/h of clubhead speed with his driver. Most Pros are not close to that. Because #d has the biggest effect on distance, golfers should understand clubmakers and manufacturers are somewhat limited in trying to aid golfers to achieve more distance. We cannot change the physics of the game.

A final note on distance. Many players are led to believe metals (Titanium, Maraging Steel, Cyro Plasma, Cermet, etc.) have a major effect on distance. Once again, more hype. If metals have an effect on distance, its very minor at best.

Top 3 Of The Best Driver-Nike Sasquatch

Top 3 Of The Best Driver-Nike Sasquatch

There is no doubt the answer is Tiger Woods. When we talk about golf clubs of Nike, Tiger Woods inextricably linked to these golf clubs. It was so cool when you see it at first sight that Tiger Woods swing with the club. So if you want a driver with so prefect performance, Nike SasQuatch sumo2 5000 Driver is the one. And it works, too.

It looks seem different, with a grey/yellow paint combination and the fact that it’s almost as long from front to back as it is from heel to toe – but if it didn’t also work extremely well, the Sasquatch would have quickly disappeared. Golfers remain, by and large, small “c” conservative so in order for something looking like this to sell in numbers, which it does, The lastest driver Nike SasQuatch Sumo2 5900 Driver from Nikehas to prove itself.

In essence, the different shape allows the centre of gravity to be pushed back, which gives a higher launch angle, and therefore greater distance. The clubhead is also less likely to twist, allowing the golfer to find the middle of the clubface more often.

A number of golfers persist in the belief that a low, boring flight trajectory will gain them extra distance but this is not true, especially in winter when there is less roll once the ball returns to earth. Because of this, many will opt for the 10.5° loft option but if you get the chance to try before you buy, have a go with the ‘lucky’ 13° model – you may be pleasantly surprised at the extra distance you gain.

Finally, though, you get golf clubs that work extremely well but have the added, almost impossible to quantify element of “cool”. You may not be able to measure it, but you know it when it’s there and with this Nike, it’s there in spades.

How to Buy Used Golf Clubs For the Novice Golfer

How to Buy Used Golf Clubs For the Novice Golfer

Are you thinking about learning how to play golf? If you are, I recommend that you do not buy a new golf club set right away, because you might find out later on that golf isn’t your thing. What’s more, you still have to discover the type of golf clubs that fits you while you’re still learning. The best option is to begin with economical used golf clubs.

Initially, you might want to use some rented clubs at a driving range. Throughout this period, ask other golfers or your friends if you may try their clubs. Subsequent to hitting for some time at the driving range, and you feel it’s time to purchase your own clubs, then now is time to consult a golf expert.

Once you venture out to purchase used golf clubs, you ought to seek out individuals who are knowledgeable about golf equipment. You might seek out your local pro at your public course as a resource of advice and information. You may also seek advice from the professionals at the golf shop. On the other hand, you can explore online for used golf club reviews.

Being a beginner golfer, it’s wise to train with a half set of clubs, that has all matching iron of the matching model.

The method to select used golf clubs is to essentially grasp them and swing them to get a sense for what feels right. However, what is ‘feel’? As a rule, feel can be expressed as the way a golfer handles a club when they swing it, depending on the shaft flexibility and its swing weight.

For a novice, you ought to choose the cavity backed (hollowed out in the back), ‘heel-and-toe’ (or, perimeter-weighted) club head design, and oversized golf club. You ought to get larger club heads since they’re more forgiving and enlarge the ‘sweet spot’ which can create greatest distance in spite of off-center strikes.

Graphite shafts are perfect for novices even if it’s more costly than steel shafts. Its overall lighter weight permits the novice to swing the club more rapidly even with bigger clubhead.

Golf Beginner Guide

1. The shaft is the axle of the club, the better the shaft, the better the club.

Right Golf Clubs for you

Right Golf Clubs for you

For a beginner in the fame of golf, choosing a golf club can be very difficult if you do not have any experience whatsoever in this field. Let alone the idea of what to look fir in a golf club. Even an experienced player finds it hard to find the right golf club. The main reason in finding the right golf club maybe a little difficult because there are so many types, designs, and features you have to consider to coincide with your own skill, swing and needs. The following golf club reviews might help you in finding the right golf club for you.

The cast iron golf club is made from cast iron and its weight is around its perimeter. Because of this the sweet spot is larger and this type of golf club this just suits bests the beginners who have a hard having full contact.

The forged iron golf club is usually used by professionals simply because of its design and function. The center of the golf club is the center of gravity and the front of the club is a bit heavier. So for the beginners you might reconsider your options if you got your eye on this one. In addition, you will also need to choose a size for your golf club the standard club is smaller, so the sweet spot is as well. Generally professionals and advanced players use a standard club.

The sizes of the golf clubs also matter for you to play real on the game. We also have to mention that midsize golf clubs are great because they have a bigger sweet spot and are a bit larger than the standard golf club. Average players frequently use midsize golf clubs because they are easy to control and have a larger sweet spot.

And for seniors and individuals who have a hard time hitting the ball, oversized golf clubs is the thing that you need. But the drawback of this thing is that it is more difficult to control but with few swings and practice you can make your ball go even further.

Taking all these tips in mind, all golf enthusiasts and beginners may find your hunting for your own golf club smoothly. You just need to be comfortable with it and most importantly, enjoy and have fun playing this great sport.

Top 3 Of The Best Driver-Taylormade R7 460 Driver

Top 3 Of The Best Driver-Taylormade R7 460 Driver

TaylorMade have sorts of weight-adjustment system in their driver clubheads and are still setting the standard, even though now almost all the major golf clubs manufacturers got. TaylorMade r7 460 Driver is the classic and most representative of such driver, which can help perfect your swing that lack of amount of practice seems to cure and is ideal for those with a handicap of 10-18.

The one genuine innovation of recent years has been moveable weights in the clubhead, to give the golf clubs an in-built bias which you can adjust to tame the wilder aspects of your swing. There are four ports in the clubhead and adjusting the weight in each offers six different ball-flight options.

For example, many golfers who slice tend to leave the clubface “open” at the point of impact, so by having extra weight towards the toe of the clubhead; it is helped back to a square position at impact, without the golfer having to adjust the swing. We’re only talking about 28 grams overall but with today’s ultra-light golf clubs that’s a significant difference.

TaylorMade consistently has more pro Tour golfers playing its drivers than any other maker, which can be misleading because they pay for such endorsement. At the same time, TaylorMade produced a lot of drivers for Tour golfers, such as TaylorMade Tour Burner Driver.

The face of the clubhead is also specially designed, and it is slightly “closed”, which can help counteract the slice that afflicts 85% of golfers, and the 11° head with the regular Fujikura shaft is probably the best option. Due to these specialties of Callaway clubs, there is no doubt that they would be one of the best golf clubs.

Something You Should Know When buying Golf Clubs

Something You Should Know When buying Golf Clubs

For most golfers buying a new set of clubs is as important as buying a car. It’s important to get it right because you can spend a lot of money and you’ll be using them for many years to come. If you haven’t realised it already golf equipment gets very technical. For the very best players a misplaced ‘C.O.G’ or ‘M.O.I’ can severely affect their game. For the rest of us a few simple decisions will help you select the right golf clubs for you and avoid wasting your hard earned cash. Lets take a look at what you need to know.

How much you spend is obviously up to you. Golf equipment can cost a small fortune especially if you opt for custom made stuff. If you’re a beginner its probably a better idea to look for a less expensive range or even buy second hand (check for signs of rusting and degradation if you do). This game is a tough nut to crack and not everyone develops an addiction to it. You don’t want a thousand dollars worth of golf clubs gathering dust in the closet! When you get to a decent level or are already there it then becomes more cost effective to go for the higher end products.

The majority of your golf bag will be taken up by the irons – generally 3 through to 9. The quality of the shaft is key for these clubs and industry standard is for the irons to be made out of steel. Take note – if your swing speed is slow or your swing speed is decreasing due to age consider buying graphite shaft irons. They are lighter and can help you get back some distance.

The flex of the shaft is another key component. Again slower swing speeds require a more flexible shaft. The extra whip generated helps add yards to your shots. This is not helpful to the golfer who is hitting their 7 iron 150 yards or more as flexible shafts tend to be harder to control at that level. These types of golfer should look at the stiffer range.

A feature of the 21st century golf bag is the hybrid clubs. A mix between the fairway wood and standard iron this club is known to be easier to hit than long irons and can be used in many situations. Generally considered a must for high handicappers and beginners you will also find that the pros have adopted them also. Its certainly worth considering having these in your bag rather than the long irons. If, like me, you tend to spend a little too much time in the rough then these golf clubs can be your saviour.

When you are making your selection be mindful that golf clubs are generally made to a standard length. When you set up, the club head should sit flat on the ground and the club should fall below your waist. The standard length is acceptable for most golfers but if you’re particularly small or tall it might be a better idea to go for a custom made set. This will give you a better chance of solid contact.

The club head comes in all shapes and sizes. You hear much about the debate between cavity backed or blades. The cavity backed club head has a larger sweet spot so is easier to hit but at the cost of feel and control. This is why better players tend to prefer the blades.

The driver and fairway woods usually have graphite shafts to assist in generating club head speed. As with irons the amount of flex you need depends on how much speed you tend to generate.

Loft of the driver head is often overlooked. Slow swingers want a higher loft as it helps get higher trajectory off the tee and ultimately more carry down the fairway. Loft tends to range between 10 and 15 degrees. Better players should opt for the lower end of that range.

Fortunately for some of us you can select the angle of the face of the driver to offset any tendencies such as slicing or hooking. If you slice go for a closed face and if you hook go for an open face. The difference can be between hitting the rough regularly or getting down that fairway.

The putter is all about feel. You need to be able to produce a smooth stroke to get the right contact on the golf ball. As a result there are a great many variations in the type of putter you can buy. See which one sits right with you. The heavier putters can help beginners because they promote a less jerky technique and reduce the chance of the golfer giving up on the putt as they hit it.

The grip has to feel comfortable. You can have golf clubs regripped and this may come in useful if you have small or large hands.

Everyone has their own tastes so not all the tips will apply but its certainly worth bearing these pointers in mind. Buying clubs can be a sizeable investment and the last thing you want is to find you’ve chosen a set that you simply cannot get on with. One final tip is to make sure you are honest about your game with the store attendants when selecting clubs. Yes, they are trying to sell to you but they will want you to get the right clubs. Its no use saying you hit the ball dead straight and play off a 4 handicap when you really have a horrendous slice and struggle to break 100. The needs of these two types of player are very different! Best golf clubs in ordergolfonline

Which is Better for My Golf Game? Graphite Golf Shafts or Steel Golf Shafts?

Which is Better for My Golf Game? Graphite Golf Shafts or Steel Golf Shafts?

Shafts for golf clubs are primarily made of either steel or graphite. The steel shafts are made from a carbon steel alloy and protective chrome plating is applied to prevent it from rusting. A graphite shaft can also be called a composite shaft because it made from multiple layers of carbon fiber and epoxy resin holding the layers together. There are even some shafts made of both steel and graphite. However, you are probably wondering which is best for you?

Steel shafts have been used for golf clubs since the 1920’s, although earlier versions can be

dated back to the turn of the 20th century. Graphite shafts are a relatively new material used in golf, dating back to the late 1960’s, but didn’t gain widespread acceptance until the mid 1980’s. Both materials are used for some of the following reasons.

Steel shafts are less expensive to manufacturer and easily able to make consistent from shaft-to-shaft. Steel shafts are made from a single material, so creating a new model is limited to geometry changes to the shaft such as the outside diameters along its’ entire length, wall thickness, distance between each step (unless it is a stepless shaft) and usage of additional metals (such as chromium, vanadium and nickel) in the alloys. Premium steel shafts cost about the same as low end graphite shafts.

Graphite shafts were originally designed to make a lightweight alternative to steel shafts. However, there are graphite shafts that actually weigh more than some steel models, but this is very rare. Steel shafts range from approximately 90g to 130g, while graphite shafts can be a low as 39g. The most popular weight range of graphite shafts for woods is 60-70 grams and for iron shafts the weight is closer to 70 – 80 grams. One of the biggest advantages to graphite shafts is their lighter weight.

Since the graphite shafts are generally lighter than steel shafts, there is a potential for greater distance because they may be able to be swung slightly faster. Most graphite shafted clubs are assembled longer in length than standard steel-shafted clubs. Golfers that tend to be less consistent may find the steel shafts to give them greater control. But for those golfers, such as ladies and seniors, who need additional length to enjoy the game better, graphite shafts are a welcome alternative.

Another advantage of graphite shafts over steel is from a design standpoint. As earlier stated, graphite shafts are manufactured from multiple layers of carbon fiber. Each layer can be a different modulus (strength) material and can be applied at different angles to contribute independently to the stiffness or reduction in twisting along the length of the shaft. This allows graphite shaft manufactures almost limitless possibilities in new designs.

Because of the various materials able to be used in the manufacturer of the golf shaft, there is a much greater range in pricing as well. An inexpensive graphite shaft may cost .00, while the most expensive shaft can cost as much as 00.00! Although most graphite shafts normally found in – range. Expect a club with a graphite shaft to cost more than with a steel shaft.

This is one reason why you so the majority of golfers have both steel and graphite shafted clubs in their bag. Greater than 90% of all drivers have graphite shafts in them. This is because the driver is designed for maximum distance and is much larger and easier-to-hit than they were just a few years ago. For fairway woods, more than 80% are equipped with graphite shafts as players tend to match the driver with the same type of shaft. Golfers, who tend to hit the ball a long way and/or need more control, may find steel to their liking. There are a number of lightweight steel shafts available as an alternative to graphite.

Irons and wedges are usually just the opposite in the shaft material choice. Approximately 75% of irons sold today are sold with steel shafts. The primary reason for choosing steel may be an economic factor as the irons and wedges make up a great percentage of the clubs in the bag. The other reason why golfers choose steel in their irons and wedges is for control rather than increasing distance, especially among stronger individuals. However, there are a number of quality graphite iron shafts that come in all different weights and stiffness to match nearly every golfer.

The choice between steel or graphite shafts for you will be based on if you are looking at greater distance or not. Greater distance will come at a greater cost, not only economically, but for those who already don’t hit their ball very straight, hitting the ball further may even compound the problem.

The best clothes for a golf outing found online

Article by Carl Liver

Golf is such a picturesque sport, such a physical, hands-on event that few think about golf and online activities. Except for that putting game you play when the boss isn’t around, but that’s different. And while outside in the sunshine and elements is the best way to think about golf, when you are looking for golf clothing, the best place to look is online.One reason to look online for golf shirts or golf gloves is the selection. At a brick and mortar golf store, most of the space is devoted to the golf clubs. Those are their biggest sellers after all and they devote most of their space to those drivers, putters and wedges. This leaves them little room for the apparel that is also important in the game. An online stockist will not have such limitations. He can provide as much space as necessary and still carry more than enough shirts and gloves to meet your needs.

Another reason for the online destination for your golf clothing is price. Most golf stores are located in shops with a thin margin for profit. Since they must squeeze every pound out of the space they occupy, they must charge the greatest mark-up for all their products. The accessories are no exception. However, in an online store, there are no such margins and mark-ups necessary. They are free to charge less because they can.

Some may be wary of an online stockist for golf shirts or golf gloves because fit is everything, especially with the gloves. However, a good online retailer will make returns easy and painless. Once you have found an online golf shop that can fit you right and gives you a great price, you know you can stick with that gentleman for future purchases.Most golfers love the idea of standing in the store, a club in their hand and imagining that perfect shot. While that is nice, there are other considerations when purchasing the clothing that will accompany your next perfect day and perfect game. Get the clubs at the store and get your clothing at the online stockist.
