Golf Clubs Facts

A new type of wood known as a "hybrid" combines the straight-hitting characteristics of irons with the easy-to-hit-in-the-air characteristics of higher-lofted woods.

Hybrids are also used by players who have a difficult time getting the ball airborne with long irons.

Woods are played for long shots from the tee or fairway, and occasionally rough, while irons are for precision shots from fairways as well as from the rough.

The metal shaft was introduced in the 1930s.

Golf shafts are used between the grip and the club head.

Almost all shafts today are made of either graphite or tempered steel, although other materials either have been used (the first shafts were made from hickory wood) or have been tried (like titanium and aluminum).

The tapering of the shaft is important to some players - the shaft can be smoothly tapered or it can be tapered in steps.

Any strong and light material may be used to make the golf shaft.

The putter has minimal loft, forcing the ball to stay on the putting surface while struck.

Putters are mostly played on the green, but can also be useful when playing from bunkers or for some approach shots

The rules of golf allow the shaft of the putter to be bent in some specific ways, but all the other club shafts must be straight.

Wedges are played from difficult ground such as sand or the rough and for approach shots to the green.

Irons or wedges are often used when playing from the rough

Wedges are irons used to play shorter shots.

The sand wedge is designed with a wider base allowing the club to skid in the sand.
