Choosing the right womens training golf clubs is the first step towards creating the next Annika Sorentsam or Lorena Ochoa. Of course,Training Golf Clubs for Women - Buying Tips Articles the equipment alone will not be an assurance of great performance. However, there is no point ruining a great potential by having crappy tools. Hence, we provided some advice on how to choose the right club sets for would-be female golfers. Below are some of them.

Buying woods golf sets

Woods for women are lighter and longer for faster swing and for hitting the ball further. There are some brands that offer various designs suited for various heights. This is because a taller female player would need a club of a different size from those used by a player of smaller stature. Remember that a club with a higher number will have a higher loft and these types are suited to women golfers with a slow swing speed.

Irons sets

Some of the best brands of womens irons sets are Hippo and Lynx. Hippo's Lady Magia Iron set features additional weighting to help reduce twisting on off-center swings and provide the most forgiveness. When choosing irons, look for light clubs that can provide easy control. If you prefer a club with a high loft, go for short irons with a more open club face to make higher and shorter approach shots. If you prefer long irons because of their low loft but are worried about control, you might want to consider hybrids or replacing a 3-iron with a 7-wood.

Buying the right putter

Most start-up women golfers use the putter more than any other types of clubs. In choosing a putter, consider whether it feels right and fits right. For women who are 5'5" or under, a 33-inch putter is better, while women who are taller than 5'5" usually choose their putter based on personal preference. The length should always be a consideration and it should always fit the height of the player. Lynx is one brand that can offer a lot of options for women golfers looking for a putter club. Prowler Putters LP, Golf Tigress and LP3 Putters are just some of the models offered under this brand.

Other ideas

When buying womens club sets, always pay special attention to grip sizes and whether they fit your grip technique. If a player is just starting to play the game, a club with high loft will be a better option since it will help her get under the ball and achieve a higher arc. It would also be beneficial if a golfer can ask other female golfers who are already in the advanced playing stage what they had in their set when they were just starting to play.

Womens training golf clubs come in a variety of sizes, designs and materials. The important thing to consider when buying one is whether the size, the weight and the grip suit your built and your type of game.
