[Golfing Made Easy] Callaway golf clubs for beginners in 2010 | Golfing Made Easy: Summary: Callaway Big Bertha Fairway wood was selected by both Golf Digest and Golf Magazine as the top fairway wood in 2007, and today in 2010 its classic among golf beginners. The performance has turned out that this large club head we were nervous is rather awesome: Most swings produce very solid contact and the larger effective hitting area makes it easy to get the ball airborne for optimum trajectory.
[golf swing magazine] Hybrid Golf Club | golf swing magazine: This type of golf club has a large head and a long shaft that allows maximum club speed since its purpose is to drive the ball a great distance down the fairway and into the hole. On the other hand, an iron golf club, which was originally made from cast iron, comes with a flat-angled face and a shorter shaft that allows flexibility for shots that approach the green or handle difficult lies, including the rough, over or through the trees, or at the base of the hills.
[Golfing Made Easy] HONMA GOLF CLUBS: PLAY LIKE ROYALTY | Golfing Made Easy: According to Travel + Leisure magazine, the Japanese appreciate Honmas attention to detail in the same way they would a sand garden or a perfectly pruned bonsai tree.

[Golf Rewind] Advices on Irons - Golf Rewind: I know how hard it can be to find clubs to demo here in Asia...for a lefty you can forget it...honestly though, those nikes aren't for you; they're pretty challenging to hit and just by broad assumption I'd put them in the 15hdcp and under range, stretch it to a 20 cap but not above that..
[Golf Video Lessons] Golf Video Lessons » How to Hit Your Long Irons - 3 Tips For High ...: The reason that the pros still use long irons is because sometimes you need to hit the ball low, and also need to hit it high.

[Hooked On Golf Blog] Hooked On Golf Blog » Srixon Z-Star Golf Ball: I gave durability its own heading for a reason. For a high performance ball, the Z-Star is extremely durable. In fact, I’d bet the average player would lose the ball long before it became unfit for play due to wear and tear. The ball even fares well with my square grooved wedges. They hardly do any damage at all, unlike what happens to other premium balls. Other balls can become very shredded while the Z-Star hardly shows any wear.
[The Shop Blog] Geoff Ogilvy Switches from Cobra to Titleist - The Shop Blog: Like other pros on the PGA Tour, Ogilvy will be using wedges with smaller grooves that are less sharp this season.

[Hooked On Golf Blog] Hooked On Golf Blog » Bridgestone e6 Straight Golf Ball: I get plenty of spin out of the e6 Straight too. I haven’t been much of a “fly it over the pin and suck it back” guy anyway, and the average hack isn’t that guy either. We amateurs almost always end up short. Who wants to end up short and then suck it back farther? Aim at the pin, hit it the correct yardage and watch it stop on the first bounce or two. Pin high for birdie. Drain putt. Collect money. Buy losing opponents beer. Next please.
