Wood: They are called so because initially they had a head made of wood. From each hole, place the ball on a tee to make long distances on the fairway and the loft (the angle between the vertical and the clubface) varies. The head is made of titanium or composite materials. Most clubs are identified by the side of their head that has a whole loft (which is the angle between the vertical and the face of the club when it is placed on the ground) different. This loft is off the ground ball in an upward except in the case of a drive (starting from the initial blow hole) where the ball must be contacted in a horizontal or slightly upward movement. The impact of the clubface on the ball compresses it and giving special effects intended or not (slice, hook, backspin, ..). A set of clubs (woods, irons and putter included) should never exceed the number 14 in the bag. It often includes three woods, two wedges (irons with a loft very open), a putter, and eight irons (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 plus a pitching wedge). The woods are the longest clubs that the golfer can have in his bag, he used to hit long shots. They have a wide head shape more or less spherical and footings slightly curved to allow the club to slide easily on the ground before and during impact. Originally, these clubs were made of wood, hence their name. The woods are made of modern lightweight metals such as titanium or composite materials. The first appeared in the 70s but have not really been used before the 90s. The longest timber is a timber, commonly called driver. It has an extremely broad head and its use is facilitated by placing the ball on a tee. Are emerging today of square head drivers expected to have a better tolerance and allow a gain in distance. The smaller timber (now 3 and 5 are the most used on the route and the 2, 4, 7 and 9 less Commonly Used) fairway woods are named because the main use on the fairways to allow relatively long shots. The lofts range from frequently Timber 7.5 ° to 31 °. The loft is the biggest popular with women and older workers through their high angle of takeoff of the ball and this even with a relatively modest impact velocity. The length of the handle of drivers is about 114.3 cm, but most players prefer shorter sleeves because they have the distinction of being easier to play. The shafts of drivers can be graphite or steel, although graphite is commonly used because of its lightness and ability to have a significant acceleration of the head to swing down. Like nearly all the golf equipment, the length of shafts is subject to the rule of the USGA. The maximum length of regulatory shaft is 121.9 cm. Irons are used to make shorter strokes with the wood and especially for making approaches to the green. Irons are the clubs that offer the greatest range of possibilities in terms of game the golfer since with the same club you can make several types of strokes (lobed, rounded, pitched, ..). The irons are numbered 1 to 9, the smallest number for the iron to browse the more distance while the largest number it offers shorter strokes which is due to its very open loft.Some manufacturer shafts have created models with two subjects. The shaft has a diameter of about 12mm at the grip and measure between 89 and 115cm. The shafts are determined by several characteristics. The first is the flex flexibility. It is the power of deformation of the shaft support represented by the golf swing speed at impact. Golfers with faster swing speed prefer to use stiff shafts in order not to lose power. The flex is identified by a letter. Thus we find: L (Lady), A (soft), R (regular or standard), S (stiff or rigid) and X (extra stiff or very stiff). Only these terms should be used with caution because all manufacturers use different names as there is currently no "standardization" of terms. Many golfers do not use the shafts appropriate to their level of play This results in a loss of distance due to insufficient deformation during the down swing and thus a low speed impact with the ball. The end of the shaft through which the player holds the club is called grip. It is covered with a rubber sleeve, a synthetic leather lining and occasionally leather. The grip must be as the main quality being comfortable for the golfer to play 18 holes without pain. The second quality is that it does not become slippery when wet or damp.
