Selecting Women's Golf ClubsShaft Material While many golf shafts are made out of steel and other such materials, the best choice for womens golf clubs is graphite, which can provide strength and flexibility while keeping the golf club light. The effect of graphite golf clubs is a faster swing speed for women, which will result in balls that fly with higher speed, resulting in longer drives. The lighter weight will also allow women to maintain proper swing form without having to fight the weight of the club. While higher priced than regular clubs, a graphite shaft is a great choice, particularly if you have concerns about steel-shafted clubs being too heavy. Shaft Length For most men and women, standard-length clubs will be fine for golfing, requiring no special adjustments. However, for those who tend to be petite, women's golf clubs with a shorter shaft length or even custom clubs will make for a more comfortable hold on the club. This is another case where a little extra money can help those women who may be on the lower end of the height scale. Club Selection Just as purchasing clubs might require allowances for differences in body types, which particular club used in a set of womens golf clubs might differ in the course of a game. For instance, a 7-wood or a 9-wood often replace 3-irons and 4-irons in a set of womens golf clubs, since women find the lighter weight easier for control and consistency. The larger heads on the clubs also make for a larger contact area, which simply makes hitting the ball easier. In this case, selecting a different club can be more beneficial for women. Of course, nothing beats practice and steady improvement, but by purchasing a set of womens golf clubs that is comfortable to use, a woman has better chance in learning to face the men on the golf course with equal skill. |
