A Golf Club Shopping Guide for Beginners
You enter a golf store and are overwhelmed with all the irons, woods, putters and wedges that you see along with the golf balls, clothing and other golf accessories. If you are just starting to play golf, the task of selecting the golf clubs that would work for you could be a bit challenging.
First, you would need to know what a set of clubs is made up of. There are four main types of golf clubs: the Woods, the Irons, the Wedges and the Putter. Today, you may also come across hybrid clubs. A hybrid club is a cross of a wood and an iron. People who are having a hard time hitting their long irons, like a 2 or 3 iron, prefer to use these clubs. You are allowed to have up to 14 clubs and could be in any combination. An example of a good combination for your golf clubs would be one driver, one 4 wood, 3 through 9 iron, a lob wedge, a gap wedge, a sand wedge, a pitching wedge and one putter. However, the combination would entirely be up to you or the golfer as different combinations work for different people.

Advertise Your Own Brand On The Golf Course
For all of the golfers out there, how many of you work for Taylormade, Titleist, Cleveland, Calloway, or Nike? I would imagine that only a very tiny percentage of you do so. Yet, most of us (myself included), actually pay these companies sizeable amounts of money to advertise their brands for them as we spend 4 hours (or significantly more in some cases) on the golf course. Between the expensive golf bags, hats, shirts, and towels that we purchase, we are a walking billboards for these companies, and we paid them for that right!
With the marketing and business degrees that many golfers probably possess, how many of us have ever stopped to wonder how that makes any sense. Why not take the money that you spent on that 0 Taylormade cart bag, and buy a bag or shirt that advertises YOUR brand instead. Use a bag with your logo embroidered on it to start a conversation with your playing partners about the company that you own or sell for. It’s a natural segue into your ”elevator pitch”.
