Under Armour Golf Golf Equipment All Amateurs Should Have

Many people think they need more equipment than they really do when they first start golfing. Sure, there are a ton of bells and whistles that look like they'd be great fun to play with but you don't need most of those until you have a few game basics down. Until then, you won't really benefit from using the more advanced equipment anyway. As you assemble your beginning golf kit, keep the following important pieces in mind.

You should invest in a good pair of golf shoes first. During a game of golf, you'll spend lots of time on your feet so be sure to buy golf shoes that fit well and that are comfortable. The shoes may be slightly uncomfortable as you break them in but wearing them off the course or to the driving range can speed up the process. Your spikes will need to be appropriate for the courses that you'll play most often. As an example, most courses in the U.S. require soft spike shoes. The next thing you want to invest in is a good quality putter. Woods and drivers receive the majority of most people's attention in the hopes of getting extra distance. If you're really interested in bringing your game up to the next level, the short game (the strokes that take place near or on the green) is going to be where you need to improve most. After you test out a few putters at a golf store to see which loft, shaft length, and grip you prefer best, you can compare prices online so you get the best deal.

You will also need to invest in golf club head covers. You're investing time and money into assembling a good set of golf clubs. You can easily spend a few hundred dollars on even a beginners set of clubs. To lengthen the life and usefulness of your clubs, you need to protect them by getting quality head covers that will protect them from banging together in your car or during the drive to and from the golf course.

Because there are so many kinds of covers, you should be able to find ones that reflect your personal style.

When buying starter golf equipment, start small. Then you can add more expensive pieces one at a time until you have the set you are confident will help you accomplish all your goals on the course and at the driving range. This will allow you to get the most for your money when starting out in the great game of golf.
