« Golf Irons ” Five is a Close Second   Which Golf Training Aid is Right for You? »

by David Joa

Any female golfer who needs to find the best ladies golf clubs will know that this is still not easy despite the fact that there now more women golfers then ever before.

Find the right equipment for playing golf, for both men and women, is always a compromise as the same equipment is never the right fit for everyone.

In general Mens Golf Clubs dominate the Market

Unfortunately golf clubs are not an exception and the problem becomes even more acute when trying to find suitable clubs for a lady golfer. Mainly this is due to a much smaller market for ladies golf clubs and the fact that development and manufacturing costs of any high specification item continue to be high.

In some cases a woman golfer may be lucky and find that a normal golf club will fit and work perfectly well, but this will be an exception rather than the rule. Usually it is extremely difficult for a women golfer to find suitable clubs, especially when they are trying to put a whole golf set together.

A Woman’s Physical Differences are a Factor

Because men and women are physically different the needs of the woman golfer are always going to be different too and golf clubs are no exception to this requirement. Lady golfers may find that most clubs are too stiff or in more extreme cases maybe too flexible and often women golfers will find a golf club designed for men will not be right for their swing action.

For women a lighter golf club will mean that they can hit longer shots but there may be a downside in that there is less control than would be gained from a heavier club. Another important criteria for women golf players is the length of the golf club as for a woman shorter is better and a lot more comfortable.

Try and road test the golf clubs you like to make sure that the fit is what you need and that they feel comfortable when playing. Do as much research and testing as you need to make sure you really have made the best selection.

Consider buying Custom Designs or Specialist Female only Golf Clubs

Today many golf clubs for females are purpose built for all types of clubs, including irons, woods and wedges using different designs and incorporating different materials to help the woman golfer. The general trend here is for lighter clubs that will help ladies improve their game and therefore enable them to progress more easily.

As a woman gets better at golf then her demand for better clubs will also increase and the requirement for something that fits really well becomes even more important. In this case it may be necessary to have a set of custom golf clubs made to ensure the best fit possible.

Of course these will not be cheap and you will have to be prepared to pay the cost of perfection. However this maybe a small price to pay as the benefits and additional enjoyment you get as your golf game improves will probably be worth it.

Fortunately there are now more specialized womens golf clubs on the market than there used to be, but it is still not as easy as it should be for a lady golfer to find the right clubs to suit her style and level of golf.

Keep Searching until you Find what You Need

Get the best ladies golf clubs you can and as soon as you can because to progress quickly and improve you need equipment that is going to help you not hinder you.
