Golf Equipment

[Nathan Garcia]

For a sport that is notoriously reputed to be very expensive sport to
participate in, a game of golf surprisingly requires the least amount
of golf equipment to play. That's saying basically about the game,
since there are those who can do fairly well with just one golf club,
only modifying the power and direction of the swing. What makes a golf
game relatively expensive instead are those aside.
Golf Clubs
Golf equipment first and foremost needs a golf club. Golf isn't a game
where equipments can be shared comfortably, so individual golf clubs
are of utmost importance. There are four basic categories for golf
clubs and they are woods, hybrids, irons, and putters.
Woods - these clubs are the longest, with shafts that measure 40-47
inches, having large heads with spherical shape. Woods are often
referred as driver and are most ideal in hitting off the tee, or on
situations requiring definitive carries or drives.
Irons - irons are the most versatile golf clubs, some players even
make do on a golf game using only an iron. They are shorter than the
woods, around 36-40 inches on the shaft. They offer clubbing with
relative skill in contrast to the woods which requires a good amount
of precision.
Wedges - these clubs are actually referred as irons though having a
loft (angle which the clubface tilt) of more than 44 earned them a
special category other than irons. Wedges are also customized to meet
several factors. One such example is the sand wedge with specialized
underside with a "bounce" feature.
Putters - putters are clubs used on the green. They have a very low
loft and some has even shorter shafts that would complement precision
and deft touch. These clubs are ideal for finishes on the green.
Golfers are allowed to carry 14 different kinds of golf clubs during
play, and the typical set of 14 usually consists of 8 irons, 3 woods,
2 wedges, and a putter.
Golf Balls
Golf balls are 42.67mm standard diameter mostly of synthetic materials
construction. One notable feature of golf balls are the dimples, an
aerodynamic function that will affect several factors including
trajectory, spin and feel. Some makes are generated to result a
desired outcome, such as harder materials to result longer distance,
or softer ones to allow more spin.
There are other golf equipments on the use but those mentioned above
are the most required to get a game going. Other golf equipment
includes Golf Bags, Golf Carts, Golf Cleats, Golf Tees, and Golf Ball
markers.
