The golf club is composed of the head (the part where the ball is hit), the shaft (the connecting part), and the grip (part of the player's grip). The head is made of special metal and has a variety of shapes; the shaft is made of alloy or some special materials; the grip is generally made of hard rubber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the different uses of the club, the club is designed into different head shapes and shaft lengths, which can be roughly divided into three categories: woods, irons (including pitching wedge, sand wedge), and putter. Each golf club has a corresponding number to identify. The larger the number, the shorter the shaft, the greater the tilt angle of the club surface, and the relatively short distance played.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the different uses of the club, the club is designed into different head shapes and shaft lengths, which can be roughly divided into three categories: woods, irons (including pitching wedge, sand wedge), and putter.

In the early days, the tops of golf clubs were made of wood materials. Apple wood, cherry wood, etc. were used. Later, it was discovered that red persimmon wood was better than other wooden materials and was widely used. Because wood will expand when exposed to water, the clubs need to be maintained after hitting the ball in the rain. In addition, due to the reduction of red persimmon trees, they are becoming more and more precious. Metal material gradually replaces wood. But the name \"woods\" is still used today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The golf woods are divided into driver wood (usually 1-wood) and fairway wood (usually 2-wood, 3-wood, 4-wood, and 5-wood) according to their different uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Golf Woods are divided into 1-woods (Driver), 2-wood(Brassie), 3-wood(Spoon), 4-wood(Baffy), and 5-wood(Cleek) according to their length. The wood is characterized by a long shaft and a lighter head for an easy swing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most golfers carry woods: 1-wood, 3-wood, and 5-wood for fairway shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The difference between the driver wood (usually the 1-wood) and the fairway wood:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The 1-wood has the longest shaft, the smallest loft, and the longest hitting distance. It is also known as a pilling wood. As the number of clubs increases, the length of the shaft gradually decreases, and the loft angle gradually increases. The main purpose of using the 1-wood is to obtain a greater flight distance, and it is generally used when teeing off from the teeing ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The farther the first shot on the tee, the closer the ball is to the hole. Therefore, the 1-wood is an important club that plays an important role in improving performance, and it is also the most attractive club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n fairway woods are generally used to hit balls on fairways or semi-grass areas. Due to the limitation of the position and state of the ball, it can be said that it is more difficult to play than the 1-wood, and it is easy to have various wrong balls. The height of the flight line of the ball is determined by the inclination of the club face. As long as the body is centered on the longitudinal axis of the body during the shot, the body is rotated correctly, and there are no extra and down ups and downs or shrug movements, you can naturally hit The ball with a trajectory higher than the 1-wood.because the inclination of the fairway wood is greater than the 1-wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The golf iron is made of alloy, which is slightly thinner and smaller than wood. It is mainly used to control short-distance strikes. The irons can be divided into three categories: long, mid, and short. There are generally 11, of which in addition to irons 1 to 9, there is also a pitching wedge for close-range splitting and a sand wedge for hitting the ball in a bunker. The characteristic of the iron is that it is easy to keep the direction and landing point of the shot accurate (see Figure 3-7). The hitting part of the iron is made of alloy. The iron is heavier, and its bottom is smaller than the bottom of the wood, and it is not as thick as the wood. Therefore, the swing angle is better and it is easier to lift the turf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The golf iron is divided into the knife-back type and concave-back type according to the ball head design. The knife-back type has a higher center of gravity and is not easy to make the feeling of club head release. However, the concave-back type has a lower center of gravity, and some even have an ultra-low center of gravity. The bottom is heavier, it is easier to hit the ball, and can be played higher. The market sees more concave backs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Golf irons are divided into long iron (1-iron, 2-iron, 3-iron, and 4-iron), mid irons (5-iron, 6-iron, 7-iron), short iron (8-iron, 9-iron, Pitching Wedge, Approach Wedge, Sand Wedge).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Long irons include 1-iron, 2-iron, 3-iron, and 4-iron. The rods are long and heavy, and the hitting distance is long and difficult to master. Among them, the 1-iron is not commonly used because the inclination angle of the rod surface is too small to grasp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When using long irons, is more demanding than using fairway wood. Because long irons require both flight distance and flight accuracy. The long iron has the characteristics of a long body length, small inclination, and light and small head, making it difficult to use. Therefore, even professional players think it is the most difficult club to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Mid Golf Irons include the 4-iron, 5-iron, and 6-iron. As the clubs shorten, the width of the station gradually narrows. The iron bar hits the ball higher, and the ball can roll a certain distance after landing. It is generally used on the green.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, including iron, no matter which type of iron is used, it can be called a \"control shot\". Not only to hit the ball far but more importantly, to hit the ball into the hole area or the aiming area. The iron rod is also the most frequently used club in the iron, so whether the iron can be used well will directly affect the performance of the ball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Includes 7-iron, 8-iron, and 9-iron. Short irons are often used in close-range and hard-to-hit ball positions and deep grass. Short irons have higher requirements for the direction and distance of the ball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Includes pitching wedges and sand wedges. It is sometimes labeled as a 10-iron and an 11-iron, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pitching Wedge: The clubhead has a large angle to the ground and is mainly used around the green. Use when the terrain is difficult or there are obstacles such as bunkers, water obstacles, or trees between the ball and the hole. With this lever, the ball can be hit high, so that the ball can land on the green over obstacles. This rod is also often used to hit close-range ballistic balls within 90 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Sand Wedge is mainly used to hit the ball in the bunker near the putting green.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHardness<\/strong><\/strong><\/td> Representative symbol<\/strong><\/td> Representative Color<\/strong><\/td> Suitable For Golfers<\/strong><\/td><\/tr> Extra Hard<\/td> X<\/td> Green<\/td> Tall golfer
