Why Golf Sets are not always the way to go!

There are some really good deals available on golf sets where ever you shop at the moment but is a golf set the way to go for you?

Well lets take a look at why you would go for a complete golf set, I am guessing that the main reason is that it has all the clubs that you need and it saves hours of time trying out different clubs. Well this isn’t always a good thing. Imagine getting a complete set along with a golf bag and a umbrella nice hey!! Yeah but your driver makes you pull it to the right and your putter is more like a hammer than the instrument you use to put the ball delicately into the hole!

Everyone is different and have their own way of playing the game. If two people went to the same coach every day for three weeks then went out and played a round together then the swing, method and routine would all be individual because that is how people are. So when you look at buying a complete golf set you are probably looking at getting driver all the way through to putter, which might be ok but what happens if you can use the wedge or the three wood? You are stuck with them because they came with the set.

Here is what I do when I see a good deal on a golf set, most stores have a net or a range that you can go and try the clubs out on, well this is where I would be testing every club in the set. Make sure that you are happy with the clubs, if they all suck then don’t buy them if you get 75% that you are happy with then go back into the shop and tell them that you are happy with that 75% but you would like to look at individual clubs to replace those that didn’t come up to scratch.

If you are buying a golf set then you need to spend a good few hours trying different golf sets and golf clubs so that you get the right set for you. If you are buying for someone else then you need to make sure that they go with you so that they get what they want. I have had to use clubs that put 10 shots on my round because they were purchased for my by an unexperienced loving uncle!
