Golf Courses Filled With Golfers Using The Wrong Clubs

In any sport, the proper equipment can have a remarkable impact on the quality of play. Golf is no exception. Playing with clubs that don't fit your body, that are either too long or too short, or with inappropriate grips for your hand size can create more problems for a golfer than many players may even realize. Besides affecting a golfers game, the wrong clubs can cause aches and pains with overuse. Adjusting the way you play in order to be able to use a set of the wrong clubs for your body will do nothing to improve your game and will probably take away from your ability to enjoy it.

Getting the correct clubs for your body size and the proper grips for your hand size is possible whether you get custom made clubs or simply find the right size on the shelf. The important thing if you aren't sure is to get someone that works at the store where you are going to purchase your clubs and make sure they help you find what you need.

The right length of clubs is obviously the first most important consideration. The taller a person is, the longer their clubs need to be to avoid bodily injury at worst, a terrible golf game at best. If you are going to purchase custom clubs, the company you buy them from will measure you for the proper fit, and typically they will assess your swing, your strengths and weaknesses in the game, and help you find the clubs that will maximize you golf game potential. The best players often have the best equipment.

Another thing to look for when purchasing clubs is a proper grip on the club for your hand size. Women with larger hands may not necessarily be able to use the typical grip size made for women. The same applies to men and children, there are so many different hand sizes, make sure you get the right size for you. A golfers grip on his club affects every other part of a swing so the more comfortable the grip, the better the swing, and therefore, the better your golf game will be. Custom clubs will have grips that are made especially for your hand, to make sure you get the perfect grip on your club and your game.

Custom clubs certainly have many positives going for them when you are considering purchasing a new set. A few of the possible down sides include a larger price tag than clubs off the shelf, a wait from between 2 days and 2 weeks before you can get your clubs in your hands, and if you are purchasing the clubs for someone else, the element of surprise is limited.
