If you are a left-handed person you must have realised that most of the world is made for the convenience of right handed individuals, since there are so many more in number. This also means that you will have to look out for special provisions that are available for the convenience of left-handers.

Although 10-15% of the world’s population is currently left-handed, there is far lower percentage of left-handed golfers than that. There are a number of reasons for this:

• Many left-handers seem to play golf right-handed, which for many of them seems more natural as they are leading with their left side, left eye and turning anti-clockwise (why do right-handers play that way as well?)

• Until recently it was difficult to get hold of left-handed golf clubs so lefties just made do with what was available

• Most instructors and instruction materials are right-handed and that seems to be the “correct” way to play.

Left handed golf clubs are similar in construction and utilize the same technology built into right handed equipment. How do you tell if a golf club is for people who are lefties? When you hold a lefty club in front of you, the club face should point to the right, that’s how!

The best way for a left handed golf player to play golf is to use the right golf equipment. Experts recommend left handed golf players wait until they can get suitable left handed golf clubs. Golfbuyitonline has an incredible range of left handed golf equipment for men, ladies, senior and junior golfers from irons to putters and drivers to wedges and more.

Golfbuyitonline.com are the leading supplier of Left handed golf equipment throughout the UK and Europe with the largest most comprehensive catalogue online of left handed golf equipment from drivers, fairways through to irons, putters in fact anything that is available to the left handed golfer at low internet prices from all the top brands including Titleist. Callaway, Mizuno Cobra, Nike and many more.

By having the right (left-handed) clubs and good quality instruction, you will see your golf game steadily improve. That means lower scores and much more fun and let’s face its that’s why you play golf to have fun and play to play to the best of your capabilities.

To buy or not buy? It is a question

Just five easy questions, you can have the idea if you really need to buy new Golf Contest clubs for yourself or not. This article can make your Golf Contest buying very easy and useful.

1) Are your clubs 4 years or older?

If you have older clubs then you should certainly consider investing in a new set. The technological advances alone will almost automatically help your game.

2) Do you have the budget for the clubs you want?

Golf Contest is really a rich mans sport. New Golf Contest clubs is a big reason that is because they are not cheap. For example, Callaway makes a great Golf Contest club. But they are also one of the, if not the most expensive Golf Contest club manufacturers out there.

They have a great reputation but does that mean you have to buy Callaway’s when your budget says your shouldn’t? Of course not. There are a lot of quality clubs out there that can fit into any budget. However, if you’re set on a higher end simply save until its not a burden on your finances.

3) Do you play enough to justify the added costs?

For most Golf Contesters they don’t play but a few times a summer. If this is you, you need to have a heart to heart with yourself to see if this justifies investing in a new set of Golf Contest clubs. If you financially set then by all means go nuts but if you’re like the rest of us then purchasing a new set may need to be put on hold.

4) Do you want new clubs for the right reasons?

Why do you want a new set? Is it because your buddy got a new set and your wanting to keep up with him? Or is it because you actually want to become a better Golf Contester. Only you know the reason so be honest with yourself and make the right decision for you.

5) Will your significant other kick you out?

Alas, if you buy a new set of clubs will your significant other freak out and kick you out of the house? If this is even a remote possibility then I would say pass on the new clubs for now. Unless you buy them something nice first to build up your brownie points.

Teen Golfing

Playing golf as a teenager can be one of the most joyous times of ones golfing life. You have no responsibilities or pressures other than having fun on the golf course. How much fun can one have if you’re not using the proper equipment? Teenage golfers fall into a very unique category. Most teens are too large or strong for a typical junior set and not large or strong enough for an adult set. Often time’s junior golf sets shafts are too flexible for a teen and are often not long enough. On the other hand, a full length adult set is not light enough and the shaft flex can be too stiff.
r
rMost golfers will tell you that playing with a club that is the proper length and shaft flex is a major key to enjoying and performing this great game. Luckily for today’s teen golfer there is an answer to this dilemma. Today’s teen golfer now has the luxury of having a teen golf set as a viable option for their equipment choice. These sets are typically made for golfers that are 4′10″-5′5″ and come with more flexible shaft, which is the perfect medium between the typical junior flex and the typical adult flex. A good number of golfers start playing in there teen years. This can be a blessing and also a curse. The blessing is that teens are very flexible and usually have very good hand eye coordination, two major components of playing golf successfully. The curse is that without the proper equipment teens can develop bad habits that can last a life time and hinder their enjoyment of the game for the rest of their golfing career.
r
rThe games growth is very dependent on teens. If teens are struggling with finding proper equipment it is safe to say that the games overall growth will become marginal at best. Golf instills tremendous core values in people, especially teens. Respect, politeness, and honesty are just a few of the many important traits a teenager can come away with from playing golf which will translate into their everyday life. Playing golf is also a great way to meet new people, make new friends, and share camaraderie with others that have a passion for golf. Later in life golf can become a very useful business tool; however none of these things will ever manifest itself without a proper introduction to the game with proper equipment.
r
rI can speak from personal experience that finding a proper set as a teenager was a struggle to say the least. Being left handed made it especially difficult. Unfortunately I never had the option of a teen set growing up. Modifying adult sets to fit a teen can be very costly and time consuming. Today’s teen golfer should feel very fortunate that a teen set exists, they have been given a great opportunity to learn and play this game with a set of golf clubs built specifically for them. After all, golf is supposed to be fun, when you’re a teen playing with proper equipment it may just be the most enjoyable time of your golfing life.

An Investment worth looking after

If you are a golfer then you know that as a hobby it can be expensive. This is not only in monetary value but in the time you have to spend perfecting your game. Unlike other hobbies you are not going to be great at it straight away and even the professionals still work on their game day in day out. The original cost starts when you buy your first set of golf clubs.

You need to ensure that you have a set that is of a high enough quality that you will be able to strike the ball well but not too expensive that you are afraid of ruining them. The best thing to do is to get some tips from a professional coach as they will know how to start you off during your first few practise sessions. Hopefully, these lessons will give you the confidence to take the game on and improve, but don’t be disheartened if you don’t take to golf like a duck to water as even the best take time.

Things that can help are golf tuition videos that give you a demonstration on how to make the perfect shot. Golf is a case of practise makes perfect so the more time you spend improving your game, the better you will be. One thing you need to ensure you do is to take care of your clubs as you don’t want to have to spend a lot of money on a new set after you have just bought a set.

In an ideal world, you should give your clubs a thorough clean and inspection after each round. At this time of year, courses will be wet and muddy so giving them a clean after each round will help prevent them from rusting. When you purchase your clubs you should get some golf head covers as well as they assist in protecting your clubs. If you see any problems with your clubs get them seen to straight away as having it fixed now could save you a considerable amount of money in the future.

You can purchase stainless and chrome polishes that you can use after you have cleaned your clubs. These are great products to have and can increase the longevity of your clubs. Make sure you take care of your clubs and ensure you have adequate golf insurance for any wayward shots you may make during the start of your golfing career.

There are many courses in the UK that are popular for playing a round of golf at such as Aldenham Golf & Country Club, whether it’s for fun or to help get some practice to lower your golf handicap

Choosing Golf Clubs – Choose The Right Golf Clubs For Yourself From The Wide Selection That Is

February 14, 2010 by TheMaster  
Filed under Woman Golf Clubs

Golf is a very popular pastime among many. Well, popular enough that more and more golf clubs are becoming available in the market every year. It is something of an understatement that choosing new clubs can be a challenge. It is easy to be left in awe at the range of golf clubs that you can choose from (a complete golf set comprises 14 clubs including sand wedge and putter). But choosing the right clubs for you is important – not just with regard to costs, but also for the possibility of how much your game will improve with a particular club, and if so by how much. This article will discuss the factors to take into account when you are considering which new golf clubs should purchase.

Many find that the most important aspect to consider with any golf club is its shaft – that is, the metal rod that separates the grip from the head; how long is it, and how dense? These criteria vary from club to club – and playing with the wrong club is likely to prevent you from playing golf at your best (it may be simply a case of it being impossible to find a natural, comfortable posture as you line up a shot using a particular club). You may well be used to playing golf with clubs that have specific values, but that is no reason not to keep your options open.

It is unlikely that anyone would disagree that how you swing the club during a game of golf, is a key factor in how well you play the game. Of course, this is all the more reason to consider the size of your club’s head. A smaller head may allow for greater control, but a larger one will definitely make you more able to hit the ball, for the larger surface area on the side. You may find that the type you choose will have an affect on your swing – people continue to affirm that different materials rather have different weights and feels. Test swinging clubs can help you to ascertain what you are really dealing with.

It is wise to consider the grip of any golf club. The grip on the club should be comfortable, so as to prevent the club from flying out of your hands or any similar mishap. If you are a person whose palms sweat a lot it would probably be worthwhile to make a choice of grip different from that of the person who does not have such sweaty palms. In short, consider your personal factors as they are important.

Probably the most obvious thing to consider is how much new clubs will cost you. If you are a beginner and you are not interested in playing golf on that much of a regular basis, stay clear of anything obscenely expensive; it is not that hard to find clubs that are cheap but still good quality; and it is not true that you need a complete set in order to play a “proper” game of golf. Of course, if you really are seriously investing in ways to improve your game and harbour a sincere ambition to play in tournaments, then you should probably be prepared to spend a larger amount. Start by asking yourself what you really want in conjunction with exactly where you intend to proceed. It’s as simple as that.

Any reputable golf retail store should be able to provide helpful, coherent and worthwhile advice. I recommend experimenting with as many clubs as possible, especially if you are one to be playing the game truly seriously.

Get a bag of golf for beginners

February 12, 2010 by TheMaster  
Filed under used golf clubs

You might be a golf beginner looking for your first set of golf clubs and equipment or a pro shopping for upgrades, but all will agree that golf bags are essential in the game. Next to golf clubs, a golf bag is one of the most important golfing equipment there is.

It is considered a necessity. A good golf bag will lessen your worries on the golf course, (i.e. all your clubs are in their proper place) and you can focus on your teeing.

If you’re a beginner golfer, then golf bags are definitely a must. However, there are things that you should know before going to the nearest golf store and buying a golf bag on impulse. First, there are two types of golf bags? carry bags and cart bags.

Carry bags are golf bags that are used when you are planning to have a lot of walking on the golf course. Cart golf bags are those that you use when walking is not possible (as some golf courses prohibit walking), and riding a golf cart is your option. A beginner golfer will most definitely buy a walking bag at first, although if you are a serious beginner of the game, then you will eventually buy both types of golf bags.

If you are a newbie in the game, you might ask “What is a golf bag for? I only have four golf clubs.” A golf bag is a functional equipment rather than a fashion statement. It is not just for your golf clubs, but it can also hold your other golf equipment and accessories. Some advanced golf bags even have pocket coolers that can keep your drink ice-cold even for hours! You might want to consider that, especially when you will buy a carry golf bag.

When buying a golf bag, especially a carry golf bag, find a comfortable one. One should check the straps to see if it fits comfortably and whether it can be carried easily. Remember that your golf bag will be one of your trusted companions on the greens, and that you will spend hours with it. So choose wisely. Don’t buy low quality bags, because you will end up purchasing another bag in the next few months if your old golf bag tears up. You should also buy your golf bag depending on the number of golf clubs that you have. Most golf bags can carry up to 15 golf clubs. A Tournament Planninghowever limits the number of golf clubs in your golf bag.

Another important thing to consider when purchasing a golf bag is its weight. This is one of the most important things to know. Golf bags should be light enough to be carried or carted easily, but sturdy enough to hold your clubs and protect them. Some golf bags are even water resistant, and are rain proofed for the protection of your clubs. Most of these golf bags have 8 or 9 dividers or pockets. Again, the number of dividers that you will need depend on the amount of clubs and accessories you will carry. If you have many golf clubs then choose a golf bag with many dividers. However, these types of golf bags have the tendency to be heavier. Some bags can weigh less than 5 pounds! These types of bags are made up of space-age materials such as graphite, however, they more expensive.

Remember that when buying golf bags, the lighter it is, the better and more comfortable it will be.

tend to be heavier. Some bags can weigh less than 5 pounds! These bags are made from space age materials such as graphite, however, more expensive.

Remember that when buying golf bags, lighter the better and be more comfortable.

A guide to proper golf club care

February 12, 2010 by TheMaster  
Filed under used golf clubs

Whilst many tend to play for fun there are many amateur tournaments at the weekend that many more serious golfers compete in. Any golfer will tell you that the sport can be expensive with some clubs costing hundreds of pounds each.

Golf clubs have a lot of small design features that can all help you hit the ball cleanly and in the correct direction (or at least that’s the theory). Not caring for your clubs and allowing them to get bent or covered in dirt will have a significant effect on your shots. Simply having dirt in the grooves on the face of the club; the sweet spot that you want to hit the ball with will be significantly smaller and so harder to hit perfectly. Make sure you have the right golf insurance policy to cover you when playing, most clubs have made obligatory now too.

If you have golf clubs that are getting caked in dirt or sand then washing the heads in warm soapy water will help loosen the dirt but in order to give your clubs a thoroughly good clean you’ll need to invest in a wire brush and a nylon brush. These should be able to remove all traces of dirt from your clubs to leave them in perfect condition for striking the ball straight up the fairway.

To prevent any knocks or scrapes it si best to get a proper golf bag for all your clubs, with a rain hood being your basic level of protection. Your driver and woods will be much more delicate than your irons and wedges so it is wise to get some head covers for your woods. Some golfers even go as far as getting head covers for all of their clubs.

Another aspect of your clubs that will need care and attention is the grips. Over time grips can split or come loose, sometimes this is due to age but mainly it is down to water damaging the grips. If you encounter rain when out on the course you should use a rain hood to prevent water getting into your golf bag. Your grips will normally be at the bottom of the bag and so could be exposed to any water. If you are well practised at golf why not become a coach, you will need golf instructor cover to do so and you can pass on your knowledge to others.
