The Different Types of Golf Clubs in a Set
For beginners and nonplayers alike, the different shapes of golf clubs could be confusing, so here is a little explanation. A maximum of 14 clubs are allowed in golf, and each club is specifically designed to maximize certain types of play. Following is a listing of the different types of golf clubs that you’ll find in a set.
– Wood
Woods are clubs designed for long distance driving of the ball. They usually have a long shaft and a large head. They were historically made from persimmon wood, and although different types of materials are used in making them today, including titanium and carbon fiber, the name ‘wood’, has stuck. The largest wood is always called the driver, and designated with a ‘1’.
– Iron
Irons are golf clubs with solid metal heads, which have a flat and slightly curved face. They are useful for a variety of shots, and are basically classified into long, medium and short irons. They are also designated with numbers from 1 to 9, with 2-4 denoting long irons and 8-9 denoting shorts.
– Hybrid
Hybrid clubs are a cross between woods and irons. They are typically used in place of long irons, and offer the high launch and far distance drive of a wood, but with the swing of an iron.
– Putter
Putters are golf clubs that are designed to basically roll the ball over short distances. They usually have a loft (the angle of the clubs head) of about 5 degrees and may have grooves on the face to maximize rolling of the ball.
