What you Need to Start Golfing

Equipment plays a large role in golf. You will need a set of clubs to play the game, and should expect to pay about 1000 dollars for a decent set. The set typically contains 14 clubs. There is the driver, which is used off the tee. There are then the fairway woods which are used for long shots, usually the shot after the drive. The driver ranges to about 200 dollars, and a wood is 100 dollars. Then there is the irons for the 3rd and 4th fairway shots. There are multiple irons which make the ball travel different distances. Then there are the wedges for the approach shot to the green, and coming out of bunkers. The putter is then used on the green to stroke the ball into the hole. The irons are about 500 dollars, a wedge is 100, and a putter is also 100. There should be a driver, 3 and 5 wood, 4-9 irons, pitching wedge, gap wedge, sand wedge, 60 degree wedge, and then the putter. This should complete your set. Good luck!
