This section is dedicated to golf and golfing equipment such as clubs, balls, clothing and equipment such as golf bags. This section includes information about golf makes and reviews from people about golf clubs, balls and equipment. Golf isnt the cheapest sport to start playing. The cost of equipment can be high, that's if you want professional quality. You can buy a basic set of clubs from low cost brands such as Howson for £150. If you want the best then a set of Titleist clubs can set you back at least £600-£800. Along with plenty of balls, and a good bag you can add another £100 on this. As a beginner we would recommend at least a medium priced set of clubs from say Dunlop / Hippo (£200-£400). Golf is maybe the top sport that relays on the quality of equipment. A good set of clubs can take shots off your handicap.

Titleist 975D Driver

I have had this Titleist driver for 5 months and couldn't be happier with what a great purchase it was. No matter if you currently drive the ball high or low, this driver will not balloon on you. I have find that it provides both excellent distance and the control feels solid. I would say that the Titleist 975D driver is aimed at the above average to excellent golfer and as I play off scratch I find the club isn't very forgiving. A friend of mine who play around a 100 had a round with it and hated it, just couldnt use it. Overall I have found it much better than my previous Callaway Big Bertha Driver as I was just never comfortable with it.
