How do I pick out my first set of golf clubs?
I’ve been to the driving range some, but I’ve always used the club’s unknown drivers – and I really know nothing about buying my own Golf Clubs. Can someone give me a dumbed-down explanation about what kind of irons/wedges/whatever I need in my starter set?
You can go and be fitted for a set of clubs but the best thing to do if you are a novice is to just buy a basic set of clubs to get started with. These are relatively inexpensive and will help you with learning your swing and how far you hit each club. I would not pay over $500 for a complete set of clubs if you are just beginning.
Once you learn how to play better then I would suggest going to a golf professional or a store where you can hit different irons and woods and be fitted to a set of clubs properly. Make sure that there is a PGA or USGA trained professional there to show you your swing tendancies and show you why a certain club is best for you.
Don’t be surprised if the clubs they choose are not the top of the line most expensive clubs either. Most of these clubs are for golfers with low handicaps and higher swing speeds.
