Top golfers such as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods all found it quite difficult to choose golf clubs that suited them the best. When looking around for golf clubs you have to take four main factors into consideration your game, your body, your swing, your preference.

The list of golf club manufacturers, models, club heads and so on is a lengthy one. Take for example Callaway Golf. In 2006 they produced ten drivers, ten types of iron sets and eight fairway wood models. Keep in mind this is just one lot produced during a particular year by a single manufacturer.

Take a fictional golfer for instance who is 5’11 in height, 20-handicap and of medium build. He is not a regular player, and only plays a few rounds weekly. His swing speed is roughly around 85mph. For this particular golfer, he would need to invest in ‘game improvement’ golf clubs which last longer and are much easier to use. This golf club has a club face which is larger than the one on the usual golf club, a thicker sole and top line and perimeter weighting which all add to making it easier to use.

This example is quite demonstrative of the fact that there are many aesthetics to be taken into consideration when purchasing golf clubs. Keep in mind that you will also be quite aware of the ‘look’ of the golf club, apart from all the technical details. It is important not to be governed by price, but instead, buy a gold club that fits your playing style best.

It is important that you do a considerable amount of research before actually making this all-important purchase.

Fit – the golf clubs you purchase should fit you well. This should include the length, swing weight and the lie. Other factors to consider are the kick point, shaft flex, MOI and shaft material. Since golf clubs are made for players ranging from beginner to pro, it is important that individual handicaps be considered as well.

Seller – golfing equipment might be priced better online, however it lacks the all important ingredient when being purchased: the experience. When buying golfing equipment online you cannot see the equipment, touch it or even try it out. To make the best of this drawback, online sellers will give you a money-back or exchange policy.

Shipping – you might find a really great deal online, but do not forget to check on how much the shipping cost will set you back. Otherwise, you need to keep looking online. Some online stores offering free shipping or discounted rates on shipping.

Manufacturer Replacement Policies – before you buy a new set, ensure that you know what the replacement policy is like or if it exists at all. If it does, it could vary. Some policies require you to send back the malfunctioning golf club first, while the others will just send you a replacement and then request for the damaged club.
