By: Joe Denver
There's a huge choice in golf sets, irons, putters, drivers and wedges. You can choose from golf sets or individual clubs. If you're an experienced player you'll know exactly what you're looking for to improve your game. But if you are a newbie and need some help, don't worry, all golf clubs, bags, carts, golf balls and accessories have detailed descriptions and explain exactly which job they are designed to do.
If you're upgrading to a new set of golf clubs, or upgrading an iron or a driver, it may take a little while for you to get used to your new clubs, but if you've chosen wisely it will be worth it. The correct golf clubs will help to improve your accuracy, distance and ultimately, your handicap.
Golf clubs are made in a good range of heights. The length of your golf club will affect your game, and if it's too short or too long you'll be hitting the ball all over the place, so always play with the correct length. There are charts to help you determine which clubs suit your height.
If your children want to get in on the game, manufacturers produce junior golf clubs. The sets are sold by age, but check the height of the clubs to make sure they are suitable. If you have a favourite brand, have a look at the children's range from that manufacturer. . They produce irons, drivers, fairway woods, utilities, wedges and full and half golf sets.

Every golfer likes to wear the latest golf clothing. Sometimes your normal clothing is appropriate, such as polo shirts, sweaters or trousers, but many golf clubs' dress code will be strict, so you will need a good selection of specialist golf clothing in your wardrobe.

Many golf trousers have elasticated waists with a drawstring or band. Trousers with leg zips are popular. They are comfortable and are usually windproof and waterproof. Check the breathability details on the manufacturer's description. Many manufacturers offer a two or three year guarantee with their golf clothing.
Golf waterproofs are popular. They are breathable, waterproof, and are a must for rainy days. The manufacturers give technical specifications of waterproof and breathability of the jacket, so you can decide how warm and dry you need your jacket to be. Drawcords and Velcro wrist adjusters can be used for extra insulation against the wind. A golf umbrella will keep most of the rain off, but unless you have someone to hold the umbrella for you, you will need a waterproof golf coat. Waterproof golf caps will keep the rain off your head. You can choose a cap from your favourite brand, sporting their logo.
Specialist underwear for golfers is available. Undergarments are designed to allow the maximum movement and allow your body to breathe. Anti-microbial treated garments will keep you fresh and smelling sweet.
