Golf clubs for starter

[True Follower]

I mean the stick, not country clubs.

I will start with golf range ... need to be able to hit the ball with the optimal trajectory.

What kind of golf clubs should I buy ?

 

[eatshitndie]

a half set will do for a beginner at the range. a full set typically has 14 clubs, and 14 is the tournament limit. but if you wish to carry 30 to a course, it’s up to you if you drive a cart. a half set is typically 6.9 clubs. for a beginner’s half set, driver is usually 3-wood or a hybrid, odd numbered irons (5, 7, 9), a pitching wedge, a sand wedge or chipper, and putter. at the range, i used to practise more with driver or 1-wood, 3-wood, 5-wood for distance, and 7-iron and 9-iron for lobbing precision. it’s all about getting into tight lobangs with the least number of strokes.

I want to start with driving range. Does that mean I only need a driver ?

if you are just trying and not fully committed yet, buy a second hand set. if its full set, you will have all the clubs already, just need to pick which ones to go to the range.

How far can I go with this ?

 

[LittleP]

No harm getting a full set. Good to start at the range from shorter clubs to driver. Always warm up with Pitching or Sand Wedge moving from 9 iron to driver. Most newbies don't hv super fast swing, go cheap like mizuno clubs plus use graphite shaft which is more forgiving than steel shaft clubs. Have fun

A beginner should not even buy a golf set, try with a 7 or 6 iron with a graphite shaft and if you can get the ball flying than consider buying a cheap graphite shaft set.
I have seen many give up after a few months .

No. Drivers are only used for the opening stroke. Majority of the game is played using irons so practise that. In fact, many golfers will tell you that the putter is the most important club to master.

But all in all, the driver is the most fun to practise with. My favourite club was the Taylor made 2 wood followed by the hybrid rescue. The "ping" sound could elevate my mood after a shitty day at work

Regarding getting clubs, my beat advice is to ask around your friends if they can loan you theirs to try. Many ex players (like myself) no longer use them so are very happy that someone wants to borrow.

The other group of people are those idiots who like to get the latest clubs believing it will improve their game. Club makers are very good at marketing and always promise new breakthrough tech in their clubs ... Released every 2 years! Very tempting!

As such you might not even need to buy 1 yet KNN consult them for the optimal trajectories as they were able to simulate it on the spot without any equipments with them and even the weather conditions KNN

depending on your height and arm length. may need to reshaft your clubs. i’ve seen newbie shorties struggle with big berthas they just bought brand new without a reshaft. the club is almost as long as their height. chio ka peng. practise with 7-iron as a start as that’s the most used iron in a par 3 link. until you’re very confident with 7 (or 6.9) start changing to wood or hybrid 3 or 5 as these are shorter clubs for sinkies or asiatics. some sinkie shorties can try women’s clubs if it cost too much to reshaft. no joke.
