Common sense of golf: What items does a set of golf clubs include?

Golf club is the basic equipment in golf, which consists of ball head, shaft and handle. According to the different uses of clubs, clubs are designed with different head shapes and shaft lengths, so golf clubs can be roughly divided into wood, iron, sand wedge and putter.

There is also a kind of cue between Tiemu, which is called mixed cue, also called Tiemu.

1, wooden pole

The wooden pole is called wooden pole because most of the previous club heads were made of wood, originally made of red persimmon wood. Because wood swells when it meets water, it will be sent to pro after being used in the early rainy days.

Store maintenance; Later it evolved into different materials. Iron, stainless steel, carbon fiber and titanium are all used.

The most popular club material should be titanium. In addition to no time-consuming maintenance, titanium metal has a strong rebound benefit and can be played far away. At present, many courses cannot increase the length and distance, so the rebound coefficient of professional players choosing wooden poles is certain. USGA stipulates that the rebound coefficient is not greater than 0.83.

In addition to the 1 wooden poles used for tee-off, there are also 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 fairway wooden poles. For girls, No.3 and No.4 are more difficult to hit, so No.7 and No.9 with higher elevation will appear.

The wooden club is the longest club in a golfer's bag. Wooden poles are mainly used for tee-off. If you can hit a long ball on the first shot, you will undoubtedly take the decisive first step to finish a hole with as few strokes as possible. So the role of wooden poles is to gain distance. In order to improve the speed of the club head when hitting the ball, increase the arc of the swing as much as possible and increase the hitting amount.

2. Hard core

Usually made of stainless steel or soft iron, there are two manufacturing methods: casting and forging. Irons are mainly used in fairways or in tee shots. They mainly pursue stability rather than distance.

Generally, the distance of No.7 iron for men is 150 yards, and that for women is about 100 yards. The iron contained in the sleeve rod is: No.2 iron-No.9 iron, P rod and S rod. Individual brands (such as HONMA) also have 10 iron or 1 1 iron.

Women rarely use No.2 iron, usually starting with No.4 iron or No.5 iron. From the distance, No.2, No.3, No.4 and No.5 are long irons, No.6, No.7 and No.8 are medium irons, and No.8, No.9, P, S and A are short irons.

3. Sand wedge

P, S and A are abbreviations of English names of sand wedges, and they all belong to the category of short poles, also called special iron. It is characterized by short iron body, heavier swing weight than iron, large inclination angle (45-60 degrees) and large rebound angle. Mainly used to save the ball around the green and in bunkers or long grass. According to the characteristics, sand wedges can be divided into: split bar (PW), relay sand wedge (GW), bunker bar (SW) and high throwing sand wedge (LW).

PW: The angle is usually 45-49 degrees, and the hitting distance is about 1 10 yards for men and 90 yards for women;

GW: The angle is usually 49-54 degrees, and the hitting distance is about 100 yards for men and 85 yards for women;

SW: The angle is usually 54-57 degrees, and the hitting distance is about 90 yards for men and 80 yards for women.

LW: Its angle is usually above 57 degrees, and the hitting distance is about 65 yards for men and 60 yards for women.

Therefore, if you choose 48 degrees PW and 56 degrees SW, it is better to add 52 degrees GW, which is enough to deal with any situation that may happen around the green.

4. Brake cylinder push rod

The putter is a special kind of club used to push the ball to the hole on the green. The putter shaft is short, and the maximum inclination angle of the putter face does not exceed 5 degrees. There are two main types: strip (also called knife back shape) and hammer head shape.

The earliest putters are mostly L-shaped, and a few professional players still use the traditional L-shaped putters. Later, it developed into two balls or even three balls, horseshoe-shaped cones, and various putters that can make people feel balanced.

5. Temujin

Iron wood pole is a kind of club between iron and wood pole, called mixed pole, also called iron wood pole.

Iron is divided into long rod, middle rod and short rod. Long iron usually refers to No.3 and No.4, No.5, No.6 and No.7 are China Railway, and short iron is No.8, No.9 and 10. There are fewer and fewer people using long irons, and most of them are replaced by small chicken legs. Long irons are usually not easy to hit high and are easy to produce right-handed balls. Because of the small angle, long irons come in handy when encountering strong headwinds.

The design of the iron eucalyptus ball head is different from the split knife back type and the concave back type, and the knife back type has a higher center of gravity and is not easy to feel the release of the club head; The concave back type has a lower center of gravity, and some even achieve an ultra-low center of gravity, with a heavier bottom and a larger sweet area, so it is easier to hit the ball and can hit it higher.

Concave backs are very common in the market. The short pole also includes a splitting pole (P), a sand wedge pole (A) and a sand pit pole (S). Professional players usually pay more attention to short shots. They are subdivided into different angles, 52 degrees, 53 degrees and 60 degrees.

Degree and so on. Different angles can hit different ball heights and different degrees of rotation. For amateurs, sand wedges usually enjoy hitting the ball in the bunker. The number 10 equals P, and the number 1 1 equals A (with a larger angle).
