Golf season is nearly upon us! As courses are cleaning up and making sure everything is perfect for golfers, you need to make sure you have the right gear to improve your performance and make you feel confident out on the course. Some experts argue that you are only as good as your gear, but it also matters how well the equipment fits your skill level and play style.

 

Clubs

It’s crucial that you get the right clubs not for a level of play or skill level you aspire to, but the one you are currently playing at. Many golfers make the mistake of buying the trendiest clubs each season, but that won’t help your game. What will help your game is finding the clubs that fit you properly. Each club in your bag should be personalized to your skill level, size, and preference. The loft angle on wedges can be adjusted with the hosel, and drivers have movable weights to change up the center of gravity placement. Fine tuning each of your clubs will provide you numerous benefits.

 

Golf Balls

You can’t just go into any store and pick up any old golf balls. All golf balls are certainly not created equal. Golfers on the PGA tour may be using one type of golf ball, but their swing speeds are probably much higher than yours. You need to find a golf ball that matches your swing speed and swing arc. Quality brands will deliver quality performance and endurance every time.

 

Gloves

Finding the perfect golf gloves is more than just finding the right size. You want comfort and grip in a glove that is also flexible and durable. Gloves should also hold up in different weather conditions. Focus on finding a glove that improves your grip. Some gloves are even designed with people in mind who have sweaty hands.

 

Shoes

Golf shoes need to fulfill several requirements. They need to have traction, be well-ventilated to keep your feet dry, and last through various weather conditions. Maybe most important of all, they need to be comfortable. Take some time finding the right fit for you. Lightweight, comfortable shoes are a given, but you’ll have to decide if you want waterproof or breathable shoes.
