How To Source The Best in Ladies Golf Clubs
Attempting to source ladies golf clubs which are both practically and aesthetically designed for female players has until recent times proved difficult and expensive. If you’re a left-handed lady golfer the likelihood of finding a suitable set of golf clubs is even harder.
Lady golfers are unfortunately at a disadvantage in terms of suitable golf equipment in a sport that is predominately male orientated – therefore more equipment is designed and manufactured in relation to the size of the market.
Before manufacturers like Texan Classics, Confidence and Prosimmon Golf produced exclusive lines of ladies golf clubs, female players had to resort to purchasing junior or senior-flex golf equipment – although this is less likely in today’s market of online golf retailers like The Sports HQ offering a comprehensive range of ladies golf equipment in right and left-handed editions.
The physical differences between a male and female golfer leads to both genders having different requirements when it comes to selecting the perfect golf club. For example a stiff shafted golf club would be less suitable for lady golfer, whilst a club that is too flexible is not likely to match a typical lady’s golf swing. A lighter golf club with a graphite shaft is far more likely to produce the best results for lady golfer, unlike a stainless steel shaft with a heavier club-head which can lead to a slight loss of control. The actual golf club length is also important as lady players are typically shorter than their male counterparts and therefore 1-inch shorter clubs are the perfect solution. Before purchasing a set of ladies golf clubs it is recommended to view and sample the clubs in person. In the case of an online purchase it is also advisable to search for a retailer that offers a means to sample the clubs in person – The Sports HQ can offer this service on all items available for sale on its website – www.thesportshq.com
The custom fit option is another way to purchase a set of ladies golf clubs. The recent appearance of Internet based custom fit suppliers has increased accessibility to the benefits of custom fit golf clubs for both sexes. After starting out in golf with a beginner’s set of ladies golf clubs the easiest way to improve your game is to invest in custom built golf clubs which are designed and built to the exact criteria of the player. Unlike some suppliers of custom fit golf clubs – Forgan of St. Andrews does not charge extra for custom fitting ladies’ golf clubs. Forgan’s custom fit website automatically selects the optimum flex, shaft type, length adjustment and type of grip after entering the following attributes: sex, dexterity, height, wrist-to-floor length, swing speed and glove size. The benefits of custom fitting – especially for female golfers are indisputable.
Finding the best ladies golf clubs was historically a difficult task before online retailers like The Sports HQ developed exclusive ranges for lady golfers. Exclusive brands like Prosimmon Golf, GolfGirl and Confidence offer specifically designed and manufactured golf equipment for the female player. To progress from a beginner’s set of ladies golf clubs a player should consider the benefits of custom fitted golf clubs – with manufacturers like Forgan of St. Andrews offering customised ladies golf equipment from their websites www.forgan.co.uk and www.forgangolf.com
