No matter your skill level, you must like the club head design when you take your set up. If you do not feel like you can make a good swing with a club, you probably will not. What else should you consider when looking for new golf equipment? Here are a few more ideas. 1. With all of the golf club offerings available, you need to acknowledge your skill level. Each golf club manufacturer has offerings for low to high handicappers. As a high handicap golfer, you need to become familiar with the center of gravity or the CG of the cheap golf clubs. You will want a low center of gravity as this will help you get the golf ball into the air and typically results in more distance. The golf club manufacturers lower the center of gravity by moving weight around on or within the club head. With an iron head, the CG will be lowered by using perimeter weighting on a set of irons. It is harder to see how the CG is manipulated in most drivers, as the manufactures relocate weight inside the head of the driver. The lower your golf handicap, the center of gravity can get higher in the club head. A higher center of gravity will allow you to intentionally hit golf shots which make the ball move left or right. 2. It is important that you are able to hit the cheap golf clubs off of real turf and see the entire ball flight during a golf club fitting before you decide to purchase. In addition, buy your clubs from a PGA Professional that will use a launch monitor during your club fitting. The launch monitor will reveal such statistics such as swing speed and the golf ball's spin rate. This will allow the club fitter to find the correct shaft for you. 3. How do I find a qualified club fitter? I would retort with how do you find other professionals like doctors, dentists, etc.? Ask other fellow golfers, your friends and co-workers about experiences they had had good or bad. Also contact local golf shops and ask to speak to a qualified fitter. Ask him or her how the process of the club fitting will go and make sure you are comfortable with the professional. Once you have found your golf club fitter, it is important that you armed with the proper questions to ask your fitter. In addition, remember the fitter is there to help you so do not be afraid to ask any question you might have. Having a set of golf clubs that is properly fit for you is an easy way to improve your golf game. With the information in this article, you are well armed to find the correct fitter, how to become comfortable with your fitter and what questions to ask to insure you receive a proper fitting. You will be shooting lower scores with your new clubs very soon. |
