Ladies Love Golf

i am 21 and i golf. i know nothing about this. i just search on the internet and e-shops some like golf smith and golfsuperworld.com…need more suggestion for more choices.

obviously bigblumpkin doesnt golf because he has no class, however, if you are new then go to Dick’s sporting goods and get a ladies set. If you are not then i suggest taylormade burner superfast 2.0 or r11 driver, woods, and hybrids with ladies shafts on them. For irons i suggest either taylormade burner 1.0 with uniflex shaft or mizuno mx-100 with uniflex shafts. And for putter i love the taylormade ghost putters. (of course these all are if you have good bucks to spend)

I have a complete set (e.g., 3 woods, putter, 7 irons)of ladies left-handed Spalding golf clubs in excellent condition. I never got into the whole golf thing and so they have sat in my storage area for a number of years after only 3 visits to the range. I’ve decided its time to sell them. I’ve looked on-line but haven’t been able to come up with a fair price since Spalding doesn’t seem to be very popular. Any thoughts on determining a fair value?

Honestly, the market for Spalding clubs is hard enough; Spalding, ladies, left handed, clubs is even harder.

A fair price is whatever you can get for them. $25-$50 would be the expected sale price when you find a buyer.

10 dollars

Yes, I actually own a set. They are super reliable and light weight.

Lynx clubs have been around a long time. Fred Couples won the Masters playing them in 1992. Ernie Els, Ben Crenshaw, and Payne Stewart all won big events with them as well. They’re not a top of the line brand that pros play anymore, and are more focussed on value clubs and complete sets. My daughter plays with a set of lynx clubs and I think they’re great. I’ve actually hit them and they perform well. Go for it, they’re very good clubs for the price.

I am 6’2, and i have ladies golf clubs which are years old and unbranded. Is it worth getting a good size and brand clubs, and should it help my performance? Thanks

There’s lots of good answers here…but so much of golf is mental. If you really feel confident in looking down @ a non branded driver, (and assuming you have some degree of skill already) then you’ll hit it well. I think though that any issues you have after the sale on non branded product will not be handled as well as with a branded product. Which that means if you crack a shaft on a department store driver, you’re going to be hosed versus doing the same with say a Callaway driver. Made in the same foundries yes….same quality of materials, no. Good luck!

I know, we don’t choose a golf clubs at random. For women, what type of golf clubs is fit for them?

Golf clubs are androgenous. They don’t care if you’re male, female, handicapped, stout, young or old.

The "off the rack" clubs only fit 10% of the male golfing population. I’m willing to bet "women-specific" off the rack clubs would have a worse percentage. Studies have shown that some "L" flexes have CPM’d (stiffness measurement) anywhere from softer than "L" to even "X"… in the same set! It’s a disservice: they make them too long, with (generally) too little loft, with no attention to detail. (sarcasm alert) But, you get a pretty foo-foo houndstooth paintscheme on the heads and shafts, so that makes it worth it. (sarcasm over)

Do yourself a favor and see a clubfitter. S/He’ll measure you, have you hit test and do all the things necessary to get you into the best possible clubs/set makeup for your needs. They’ll make sure the length, loft, lie, shaft flex, grip size (another variable that’s never considered), total weight and swing weight (how heavy the head feels) are matched perfectly to your body type and swing mechanics. Go that route, and you won’t regret it.

what is the difference between a regular ladies golf club and a ladies petite golf club?

wrong category but the petite ones are smaller but dont buy an off the rack club cause it will be really junky and you will end up paying more money when it breaks anyways.

I’m looking for some clubs for my girlfriend, who is 5′ 1" (155cm) tall.
There don’t seem to be that many petite ladies clubs around, but there is a lot more choice for juniors. 11-13 year olds’ clubs seem to be around the same size. would they be ok? What are the differences please?… other than colour etc.

It’s probably correct to assume that a junior club will have a shaft flex that will be too weak for her strength. I’m 4’11" and use a standard womens length club. As a beginner she’ll do fine, choking up a bit will just give her a bit more control.

So I’m 5’10, 16, and I’ve been playing golf for about a year and a half now. I’m on the varsity girls golf team at my high school and I usually shoot around 100-110.

I need new golf clubs. I have 2006 Willson Hope set, that we’ve paid to get extended (about a year ago) to standard men’s length. Now that I’m on varsity I think it’s time for me to get some serious clubs. My parent’s won’t go over 1,000. And they won’t let me get a job (did I mention I’m taking two college courses?) anyhoo, they would strongly prefer under 700.

I was looking at the Lynx 2008 Crystal Cat Set and the Adams Lady A3. It would be easier for me to buy a set because neither of my parents play or have ever played golf, so I wouldn’t even know where to start. Any help or suggestions?

First of all, congratulations on making the golf team and working hard at academics too.

As a PGA Club Professional, I highly recommend that you see a local PGA Professional in your area and get custom fit for a set of clubs. There are a few advantages in doing this.

You will play better golf because you are using clubs that are built specifically for you, your swing, your stance and all other attributes. Now as for the cost. A custom set of clubs is no more expensive buying them off the rack. In most cases, if buying from the Pro, you may get a better deal and some lessons thrown in free during the course of the fitting.

Good Luck,
