Every year, there are new developments. |
Graphite also absorbs the shock of a hit. The first (graphite) clubs that came out were too flexible, but now you can get them to be just as firm as you want and need. |
If they can get the weight positioned lower and further back from the face (inside the club head), then they can increase the launch angle, and reduce spin. |
It's important to match the club to the golfer. |
The biggest change has been the titanium head driver. They're lighter, stronger, and go farther with the same swing. |
The lower the kick point, the higher the ball goes. |
The manufacturers come here with a huge selection for people to try. It's a good chance to hit some balls and see what suits you. |
These are clubs made to replace the longer irons in the set. They are a cross between a wood and an iron in design. |
They also are more forgiving and have a bigger sweet spot than the traditional irons. |
Titanium heads also have more of a trampoline effect. They bounce the ball off the club faster so the ball has more speed and goes farther. |
We can fit a beginner for length, grip and club head speed. |
We have more left-handed golfers here than any store I've been in. We can use all the technology, give them the same fittings. |
We're seeing more and more playing on it. |
