Choosing the Right Golf Driver Head!

Apr 10, 2015 3:44 PM
Getting the best one for you the first time is very important because they can be expensive and therefore you do not want to be buying more than one if it can be avoided. To help ensure that you do not end up purchasing more than one driver you should make sure that you consult with a golf pro. You can find someone at a pro shop or a driving range. People there will likely be able to give you the right information that will help you to pick the best driver. They will give you enough feedback to help you make an informed choice.

How To Choose The Right Size!

Now that you have a some direction on purchasing the right driver, you now need to know how to choose the right head size. For the sake of simplicity, look at head sizes in terms of small, medium and large. A club head that is small is lighter and allows for you to have a swing with more control. However, a smaller head also compromises your ability to get good distance. The sweet spot is much smaller so there is less chance of error. A larger golf driver head has a sweet spot that is larger. There is more mass that can help you to create the most distance and momentum in your swing. The large face on the club also is more forgiving when it comes to mishits. When it comes to a medium sized driver head you are making a compromise between the small head and the large head. Think of it as the best of both worlds. Whatever size you decide on will depend on what your needs are. You must take into consideration exactly what you are trying to accomplish. For example, do you want to get more distance from your swing? Maybe you want more control. These things affect the golf driver head that you end up choosing.

What's The Correct Shaft And Length?

In addition to choosing the right driver head, you also want to choose the right shaft and length. If you have the best head for your game it makes a difference if you do not have the right shaft and length. All these things come together to give you the perfect club for yourself. When it comes to the shafts, there are many different materials and each of them gives you a different flex. (The flex is the degree of bend in the shaft.) The slower your swing the more flex is needed to give you the right speed impact. If you swing fast then you would need a shaft that is stiffer. The right length helps to give you the best positioning on your ball when you swing. Also, the longer the club is the more distance you can get. However, if you have control problems a longer shaft will make this issue even worse. It all depends on your skill level when choosing the proper length of your driver.

Overall Thoughts!

Choosing the right golf driver head is very important but taking the entire club into consideration is also very important. If you are unsure of what to choose, it may be in your best interest to get professionally fitted for a club. This way you can be sure that you have exactly what you need to play your best game of golf ever!
