What types of golf clubs are there?

Golf clubs differ in terms of length, materials, weight, shape, and design. Each type of club has been specifically developed for different requirements in the game of golf.
 

Driver

The driver is the longest club in the golf bag and is typically used for the first tee shot. It has a large clubhead and a long shaft that allows the player to hit the ball far.
 

Fairway Woods

Fairway woods are ideal for shots from the fairway and tee. They have a flat sole and a smaller clubhead than the driver, which provides more control. There are different types of fairway woods, such as 3-woods and 5-woods.
 

Hybrids

Hybrids are a combination of fairway wood and iron and are especially suitable for shots from challenging positions like the rough or bunker. They have a larger clubhead than irons, offering more forgiveness and ease.
 

Irons

Irons are the most versatile clubs in your golf bag and are used for a variety of shots. They come in different sizes and shapes, depending on whether you need more control or distance.
 

Wedges

Wedges are specifically designed for short shots around the green. They have a higher loft and a wider sole, which allows for more spin and control.
 

Putter

The putter is the most important club in golf, as it is used to get the ball into the hole. Putters come in different designs, sizes, and shapes to meet the individual needs of each player.


Overall, it is important to find the right combination of golf clubs for your game to achieve the best performance and results.
