A Golf Instruction Video is Your Guide to Your Clubs




By Dr. Richard Myers

If you are not familiar with the game of golf, that relaxing ball game played
on rolling hills and everlasting green links, then the terms driver, putter, and
wedge probably mean absolutely nothing to you. But if golf in any way interests
you and you want to start learning how to get in on that weekend game, a golf
instruction video may be just the way to go.

A golf instruction video can guide you through the game rules, the playing
techniques, and, of course, the equipment you will need. Before starting,
though, you may just want to know what some of the basics are. The clubs,
obviously, are what you use to hit the ball with, but many people unfamiliar
with this game do not know that there are many different kinds of clubs, and
each has a specific purpose. After all, the overall purpose of golf is to hit
the ball into a hole in the ground, and the different designs of the clubs allow
for you to develop a perfect golf swing for every instance.

The first club you will learn about, particularly if you purchase a golf
instruction video, is the driver. The clubs come in varying lengths, and each is
grouped into a different category, and then broken down further by a numbered
system. The longest of the clubs is the category called woods, and the longest
in that sub-category is called the driver. The reason for this is that the woods
are designed with extra weight right on the head of the club, which gives that
extra oomph to the swing, and allows the ball to go pretty far. Do a driver,
then, which can also be called the number 1 wood, is typically the club used for
sending the ball as far as possible.

Your golf instruction video will also explain what to use a wedge for. The
wedge is a club that has a larger area to hit the ball with, and it is literally
shaped lie a wedge. These are good for getting out of sand traps. Finally, the
putter is the shortest club, and it has a completely flat face that allows the
ball to go short and straight distances, right into the hole. A golf instruction
video can cover all of this, and more.
