Golf's Classification and specifications

 

Golf clubs are categorized by function:

(A) Wood. Wood is mainly used for kick-off, if we can get a far distance by using it on the first shot,there is no doubt that we have taken a decisive first step for finishing a hole with fewer stroken.Of course,the first shot leading to "Hole in One", that is, the limit of the woods.

Wood is characterized by a long shaft,relatively light head which led to easy swing.Although modern Driver has been called wood,in fact,more than 70% drivers are made of metal.

Some players with special emphasis on the traditional "conservative"  are still using persimmon wood wood, but the head with assembly of the steel will affect satisfaction of shot.These golf heads with goose-shaped neck can give players more confidence generally.Drivers are usually 10 cm long.

Woods divide into four kinds, namely, l-wood (Driver), 3-wood (Spoon). 4-Wood (Buffy), 5-wood (Cleek).The smaller numbers,the longer shaft,the lighter weight;the other hand, the greater the number,the shorter shaft length,the heavier weight.Iron has no different. l-wood is a long club,swinging in the grass.

By the construction of the club head,different designs have different characteristics and performance.In general,it influce the distance and structure.The length of the surface and the rear is longer than the length of the front and shaft.The ball can often get the expected direction and the ideal of landing point.

(B) Irons.Irons are actually made of stainless steel rod.First-class golfers prefer the handmade clubs face.The casting golf clubs with greater outer edge have  larger sweetspot.Most of stainless steel shaft irons have a somewhat different shaft flexibility.Iron is usually 95 cm in length.

The feature of iron is easy to keep the direction.The thrust of golf is close to the goal postsis by hitting, thus ensuring the maximum direction so that the ball even if does not meet the goal but at least close to taget is the primary objective.

The position which is using to hitting ball is made of soft iron,which bottom is smaller than the wood's bottom.Irons divide itoe 9 species,from 3-iron to 9-iron and Piching Wedge and Sand Wedgr.In fact,there is a multi-functional special iron.As the Piching Wedge and Sand Wedgr and multi-functional  iron is not necessary to make the full movement while swinging.So these iron shafts only has a third-class importance of flexibility.Generally,they are shorter,about 90 cm.

(C)Putter.Putter is a kind of golf clubs which is widely used to putt the ball to the direction of the hole on the green.Putter and irons are different in size: In general,the shaft of the putter is shorter,maximum of loft is not more than 5 degrees.
