Golf Tips


Check the loft, lie and length of the golf club



Success in golf not only depends on the player’s skills and abilities, but it also depends on using the perfect golf club with accurate loft, lie and length.


Factors of golf club:

Loft refers to the upward stance of the clubface. It means the angle that is measured in degrees as the club is resting on ground. It determines the angle at which the ball is launched and the backspin on the ball. This important to determine the movement of the ball. The direction of the loft determines the length at which the ball will fly. Greater the loft, the higher the ball is lifted. Lie angle is another factor to consider while selecting a golf club. It is the angle that is measured between the centerline of the hosel and the sole of the club. While choosing a golf club, it should be seen that the lie angle is not tilted towards the heel nor should it be too much tilted towards the toe. Correct lie angle help golfers to effectively control their shots. Length of the club is the total measurement of the club from the rear end of the grip to the point where the club meets the ground. Longer length ensures greater hit in terms of distance but not so in terms of control. Players in general prefer the longer golf clubs as with practice players can gain greater control on the club. Steel shafts are about 43 inches in length while graphite shafts are slightly longer to compensate the weight of the shafts. All these factors should be taken into consideration to select the perfect golf club.


The best pick:

Combination of all the above factors along with a few others leads to the so-called perfect golf club. Basically, an ideal golf club should have the accurate lie, length and loft. Most importantly, it should compliment the skill of the golfer.

By checking the loft, lie and length, you can find a golf club, which is most comfortable and suitable to your style of play.
