Golf Clubs - Everyone' a Winner

It seems that there are more and more first time winners when it comes to professional golf. So are golfers getting better or the golf clubs?

First time lucky?

Why has modern golf started to see so many first-time winners? Some believe it's because of the impact of new technology on golf equipment, especially golf clubs.

When golf first began centuries ago, golf clubs were simply made from wood. Now new materials and an increase in the golf clubs head sizes have resulted in advances in the distance and accuracy of the ball. 60-degree open faced wedges also contribute to an improved game. With larger headed drivers and other advances in golf clubs, balls have less spin and go further.

Next Tiger Woods?

However, just because you have a great set of golf clubs doesn't mean you'll be able to take on Tiger Woods. Like football, there is a lot of money at stake for the real golf professionals with large cash prizes. And as a result a lot of golfers have stepped up their game with intense tailor-made gym work-outs, and even using sports psychologists, on top of the hours and hours of practice.

'Liquidmetal' golf clubs

Next time a golfer misses his shot, it's going to be harder for him or her to blame their golf clubs. The fact is golf equipment getting better and better. It's thought a new material called liquidmetal' will improve golf clubs even more. Liquidmetal is a glassy amorphous alloy developed at the California Institute of Technology.

The structure, which is made up of copper, titanium and nickel, has a glass-like structure and is an ideal density for golf clubs such as drivers, irons and putters. The material is such that more energy is transferred to the ball and it has less vibration on impact.

Blame the golf clubs!
Next time you loose a game, and you don't have the latest golf clubs, than you can always blame your old golf clubs for letting you down. It's the perfect excuse! But the fact is, golf, like any sport takes lots of practice and skill to perfect.

Technology

There's no doubt however that technological advances in golf clubs has helped improve the game. Even the professionals admit that the advances have helped keep them top of their game. Improved golf clubs help you:

• Hit the fairways with a larger driver.
Get better accuracy with shaped irons
