Get Started with Your Love for Golf with The Right Set of Golf Clubs

Investing in golf equipment is very expensive and hence, everyone tries to take baby steps in buying them especially beginners who are not sure what type of club is right for them. Buying the first set of golfing gear is often most confusing.  Even before buying an equipment, you should enroll for Golf Teaching Certification course to learn the technique. 

For beginners, it is often suggested to first try their hands on second-hand golf sets before actually getting to the market and buying the right one. If possible, look for used cavity-backed golf clubs because of the increased surface area they have for hitting.

They also provide clear guidance on the stepping stones you should aim at learning on your journey towards becoming a champion golfer. You can also keep a track of all the golf tours that you can participate in by following their social medial channels. 

A beginner guide to golfing essentials

The 4 essentials that you must have when you start to practice your favorite sport, which is golf are:

  1. Clubs:
  • The scenario, one size fits all does not work with golf clubs. 
  • For different positions, different club types are required. 
  • A standard club set comes with numbered wood and iron clubs along with a putter. 
  • The number indicates its angles and its usage on the golf course. 
  • Lower numbered clubs are used for hitting the ball further on the course distance-wise which is vice versa with the higher number. 
  • Lastly, you will use the putter to gently hit the ball into its target hole. 
  1. Golf bags:
  • The golf bag has to be comfortable and its straps should be well-padded. 
  • You have to carry that bag for many miles on the course and uncomfortable bags can make you pretty tired during the final minutes of the game. 
  1. Golf attire:
  • Golf gloves are very important for providing a good grip on the club. 
  • Shoes that provide traction and are comfortable for a sport that can last 4-5 hours are recommended. 
  • You can also buy waterproof shoes that have spikes for getting a better foundation with the ground. 
  • You should dress appropriately on a golf course and always carry your rain jackets during the play. 
  1. Golf balls:
  • Using a 2-piece ball with solid rubber in the center and a covering of surlyn is often recommended for beginners. 
  • They are more durable and less expensive than the golf balls that the professionals use (3-piece balls).
  • You can also get a dozen second-hand balls to not fall over your budget if you lose the balls frequently. 

Some other accessories like a ball marker and repair tools form a part of your golf kit. Marking a ball is necessary when the other golfers are putting. So, keeping a marker handy in the pocket is a good way to be prepared.  All expert golfers carry a divot tool to repair ball marks that are left on the green and this is considered essential golf etiquette. Now that you know what you need to prepare yourself for a golf session, get started with your practice for your Professional Golf Certification.
