Although golf clubs appear simple in construction,
each part has a particular function. In knowing what
each component is meant to do, a golfer can more
effectively choose the right club. For example, the
rubber grip is more than just a handle. The wrap grip
is designed for usability in the rain while corded grips
provide extra responsiveness to impact, and non-
corded grips help to cushion the blow. Each is
available in different sizes to suit the golfer.
3. The shaft essentially connects the handle to the head and
is most often constructed of graphite or steel. Steel shafts
tend to be heavier and less flexible, thus improving the
club's accuracy. Graphite offers more torque and is a
lighter material, which can make the club easier on the
hands while improving the speed of the hit. Newer and
less-advanced players often prefer the features of
graphite shafts.
The end of the shaft slides into the hosel, or neck, while the
ferrule covers the area for aesthetic purposes. The club
head, located at the other end of the hosel, makes
contact with the ball and is made of steel, titanium,
tungsten, or a mixture of these materials. As the club's
heaviest component, the head helps to keep the swing
true.
