the golf ball into the air. The more loft you have the more backspin that your ball will have. This backspin will help your ball go straighter; it has nothing to do with the backspin, but everything to do with no left or right spin.

Part two of your game will be the in between game. This is where you either attack the green, or set up your third shot. Most of the time an iron or fairway wood is used. My favorite club in my bag is a Nike CPR wood. This is a fairway wood that has a low center of gravity and it very easy to hit. It has high lift so it doesn't slice as much. It is called a CPR wood, because it rescues you from trouble. I would recommend this for every player, not just beginners. If you are not going to use a fairway wood, then you will be using an iron. The right iron for you is one that will be comfortable when you swing. Like the woods, club face is important. Pick a set of irons that has a large face, and has a weighted bottom to help you with ball striking.

The most important part of your game is putting. Putting can be the difference between a great game of golf, and a terrible one. Putters come in many different types and sizes. For a beginner you should purchase an average putter. Practice, practice and more practice is the key to putting. This is where that pro comes in. Now that you have your complete golf bag, you need to figure out how to hit your new clubs.

Golf is one of the favorite, and most aggravating sports in the world. Everything you do can have an amazing affect on your swing. From sleeping wrong on your back, stiff shoulders, or even stress can change your swing. Every time you go to the course, you may have different results. Great clubs can help, but practice is where you will make your money. Tiger and those guys are amazing athletes that have been playing a long time. They are the best in the world, because that is their passion. Being the best should be one of your goals, whether you are beating Tiger or your best friend. Golf is a sport that will continue to grow in popularity. Start now and you may be the next Tiger Woods.
