As you may or may not know, I have a side gig in the summer teaching golf. I received my certification from the Canadian Golf Teacher's Federation in 2006. My experiences have been with the Dryden and Sioux Lookout golf courses where I taught a junior program and individual lessons. I've kind of slacked off a little bit in the last couple of summers, but this year I'm feeling like I want to get back into it so if you read this and want a lesson, get in touch with me!
Here's a free golf tip. When buying golf clubs, keep your height in mind before you select any new clubs. Guys up to 5'10" should fit a standard set of clubs. Women up to 5'8" should fit a standard women's set. If you are taller, (or very short) you should consider getting "fit" for a new set of clubs by a golf professional. Trust me, fitted clubs will improve your game. And don't ignore what shaft your golf clubs come with. You have a choice between metal or graphite shafts. I would suggest graphite if you are a beginner, as they are light and easy to swing. Metal shafts are a little heavier and stiffer, but are more accurate, so they best suit an experienced golfer.
I also promote a few golf companies on the web, so here they are........
Golf Outlets is the best site I could find for clubs as far as quality and prices go.
They have a great variety of clubs and price ranges. I suggest checking them out, especially if you are a golfer who's been playing for awhile and in the market for some new gear...
The world's best golf teaching aid.........
Surprisingly to me, Sears has some good clubs at decent prices. An excellent
place to shop for clubs if you are a beginner in my opinion.
