Question by AL c: Golf Clubs?
I wanna get my dad some thing “golf” for his bday.

what sort of club will he need the most (he already has a pinemeadow set) or putter that you think a general player needs the most?

and do you know a really good club that is cheap?
so best value? under $ 50 preferably
or a best value putter?

and do you know a good site that has this stuff? maybe a site with free shipping?

thx

Best answer:

Answer by Nicholas M
Most golfers would prefer to pick out their own clubs and with that said, the better clubs and putters run well over $ 50, heck even top of the line golf balls can run that much. What about a gift card for a local golf store or for a round of golf at his favorite course.

Being a dad myself, trust me when I say he will appreciate whatever you pick for him particularly if you took the time to look for something you know interests him.

Golf instruction videos provide sport coaching to golfers at the beginning, intermediate, advanced, and expert levels.

The golf instruction video for beginners offers guidance in all of the fundamental aspects of the sport, which include swing, putting, chipping and bunking. Golf swinging is used during tee-off and sought to accomplish fairway shots. In golf, chipping is a type of golf shot, the ball makes a “shallow flight” and falls onto the green turf of the golf course. The bunker shot differs from any other shot in the game of golf-the golf ball is not touched by the head of the golf club. Basic golf video instruction also offers direction in the basic etiquette, do’s and don’ts, and practice routines required for superiority in golfing.

An intermediate golf instruction video provides golfing guidance to golfers who already have a basic knowledge of the concepts related to golfing. With the use of cutting edge technology, intermediate golf instruction footage routinely provide insight into practice routines, and tips for further game improvement.

Videos with a vivid emphasis on golf instruction provide golfers with a number of tips on mastering the fundamentals of golf:

Putting: Some of the leading golf instruction videos on the retail market suggested that golfers keep soft pressure in their hands during putting, and the hands should be kept steady.

Iron Game: Golf instructors count getting the swing in front of the ball as paramount in the quest to hit the golf ball rather than the green.

Televised instruction guides focus on several of the variables related to club fitting, they include club length, swing weight, grip size, grip material, shaft material, shaft flex, loft angles, and lie angles. The size of the club head and it’s material are other variables of the game often emphasized via video instruction. Golf instruction videos have placed an emphasis on purchasing the right type of golf club, particularly for the novice golfer. The lie angle and the shaft flex golf variables are regularly toted as the most essential by the average golf instruction video. The lie angle is between the shaft and the sole, while the shaft flex features the relative stiffness and the softness of the shaft.

Golf swing launch monitor tools have become an intricate part of the golf instruction technology originally spawned by the success of the golf instruction video. Golf swing launch monitor tools train golfers in the study of the effective golf swing. The addition of golf swing launch tools in many modern golf instructional tools was to assist golfers in learning why a ball travels in a particular way determined upon the execution of a golfer’s swing.

The word ‘Golf’ is the modified name of Colf which used to be played as a fun game in Holland in the 15th century. That time golf used to be considered as one of the royal game among all other games played in Europe. Now it’s very popular game and is being played all over the world.

Golf is played with a golf stick and a small ball usually white in color. Among all the accessories and equipments of Golf the golf ball is the most important and full of various features and many new features has been added to it since this game was played for the first time. It gave a complete new look and different variety to a golf ball.

There are mainly three things which a golf player always considers before choosing a right ball to play with i.e. Content, weight and efficiency. In golf the main object of a player is to drive the ball into a series of holes as faster as he can to defeat his opponents. So the ball has to be light weighted in order to travel through a long distance.

At its very beginning golf was played with wooden balls and with the passage of time it has been modified to the new balata or titanium balls which are available in two styles- dimpled and no dimpled. However dimpled style is more popular among players.

In this world of technology today golf balls are being made with lots of advancements which have made the game faster and have increased the efficiency of the ball in terms of size and weight. Now golf balls have become much smaller and light weighted. In order to get sanctioned according to the golf game and tournament rules a golf ball should meet this following specifications: like the weight of the ball should not exceed 1.938 ounces or 45.93 grams and the diameter should be at least 1.680 inches or 42.67 mm.

After all, whether the ball is stuffed with feathers or liquid or rubber, golf remains a game of accuracy and consistency, not merely distance. Because balls fly farther doesn’t mean they necessarily fly straighter.

As golf technology and developments into golf clubs advance rapidly, many believe the advancements in the golf ball are slower and less common. This is a commonly believed by most golfers but is far from the truth. Golf ball technology has advanced immensely in recent years and now finding the right ball for your game could almost be as advantageous as picking the right clubs.

A golf ball in today’s market is amazing: the amount of money spent on research and development is incredible and the time and resources used to fill the 1.68-inch diameter ball is truly astonishing. Gone are the days of the balata and liquid centre and the new breed of multi-layered solid core balls are here. A Callaway fitting expert believes that 50% of the golfers that come for a fitting are using the wrong ball.

Hence here is a list of golf balls (the right kind of course) from which you might select the one that suits you the best :

1) One Piece : A one-piece golf ball is the most basic ball that is designed primarily for beginners and occasionally used as driving range balls.

2) Two Piece : A two-piece golf ball is used by most ordinary everyday golfers because it combines durability with maximum distance.

3) Three Piece : Three-piece golf balls have either a solid rubber or liquid centre. They are softer and take more spin, allowing a skillful golfer more control over the ball’s flight when hit.

4) Four Piece : A recent addition to ball construction is the four-piece golf ball. Rare at the moment, but could be the way the ball is headed in the future. Each layer or piece of a golf ball has a specific and different purpose. All the layers work together to offer the longest hitting, softest feeling golf ball.

If you are looking for golf balls that would spin go for the varied range of spinners like :Low Spin Golf Balls, Mid Spin Golf Balls, High Spin Golf Balls.there is another variation golf balls available too known as Feel balls like : Firm Feel Golf Balls, Mid Feel Golf Balls, Soft Feel Golf Balls

Golf balls are made to meet specifications laid down by two controlling bodies which are the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews (R & A) and the United States Golf Association (USGA). Finally we can wrap up the conversation saying that “a better game starts with a better golf ball.”

A precision sport, golf is a game in which players (called “golfers”) struggle to surmount, by following strict rules, another or multipliers players, by using many types of clubs. Each player, individually or as part of a team, attempts to “sink” balls into a small hole, not much larger than the playing ball itself. Located on a so-called “golf course”, the challenge is to require the lowest number of strokes from the starting point, appropriately called the “tee”. It should be mentioned here that golf is a game that does not require a standard playing area. Rather, golf is played on a “course”, which is totally different from all other courses. Although each course is comprised by a blueprint all its own, approved course have either nine or eighteen playing holes.

By the strictest definition of the rules of golf, it is “playing a ball with a club from the teeing ground into the hole by a stroke or successive strokes in accordance with the rules.” Played both for recreation and in competition, the point of the game is that it assumes the winner to be the one requiring the minimum of strokes to progress the entire course. This is known, simply, as stroke play, or the lowest score of individual holes during a complete round by an individual or team. This is also known when applied to the entire game, by definition, as match play.

With the sudden splurge of interest in golf brought about be tournaments being available on television, there has become an increasing market for high-end retail establishment specializing in golf equipment and clubs, it is very possible to not find a genuine golf store. Normally, good golf stores may offer the latest, and generally the very, best equipment, clubs and accessories required for superior players of golf. There products might fluctuate within certain a range of balls, posters, shirts and wallpaper for the dyed-in-the-wool players to no limit of paraphernalia

Generally, real golf stores concentrate on proper and tested supplies and equipment for real golfers. Further, real golf stores will have hints and tips for choosing the proper club and excellent golf balls for better play. A store that offers products not directly related to golf and, perhaps, have products and services in other fields, may not be classified a “real” golf store.

In a real golf store, you might find additional services, including club repair and fitting. Some stores may even provide technical swing analysis. Many more “savvy” golf stores provide the True Temper Shaftlab(c) and Achiever Launch Monitor(c) analysis or your swing. These highly sophisticated devices measure all parts of your swing, all the way from ball speed, club head speed to even carry distance. Often, they may also include printouts of extreme deflection, shaft loading, downswing traffic and much more.

Perhaps of interest to the passionate golfer, other “real” golf stores may have golf classes with local pros as teachers. Tutorials may be suggested to juniors and clinics for the fairer sex on the sport of golfing. Collectors of golf paraphernalia could find items of interest in a golf store. Golf collectors will find many interesting items in a golf store as well. The hobbyist that finds golf very interesting might find a collector item such as golf balls that have been used by a great and renowned golfer. Autographed items such as programs, score cards, shirts, etc., may be obtainable. In additions, some golf stores may have unusual gifts for the passionate golfer. Ranging from the exotic to the mundane, the giver could possible find just what he or she is seeking for that special someone.

And, most importantly, “real” golf stores are usually owned and operated by highly motivated golfers in their own right. As a matter of course, these motivated persons decide to go into owning and running a golf store after a lifetime of playing golf, either privately or professionally. As the creed of most businessmen is, “It’s good to be passionate about what you are selling.” Passion of this quality may help the golf shopper to feel satisfaction and gratification, a feeling that has no monetary value but is invaluable at any level.
