Are you just starting to learn about golf and are a bit confused on what golf clubs you should carry with you on the course?
Irons, Woods, drivers, putters... What type of each do you need?
It is often recommend that beginner golfers work with smaller clubs in order to have better control over their swing. In fact, new players should completely leave behind their 1-iron and 2-iron, and possible the 3-iron. These clubs are very long and difficult to master early on in your golfing career.
You should instead use fairway woods, which are easier to hit the ball with, have a low center of gravity, and offer a low profile. They have a larger sized clubhead which makes it easier to sweep through the grass, and with a bigger impact area making it easier to make contact with the ball.
The next time you hit the course bring along your 5-wood, 7-wood, and 9-wood. In due time, with enough practice, you can change up to longer, more difficult clubs to use.
