Two factors that directly affect the swing are technique and equipment. Specifically regarding equipment, players need to use golf clubs of the appropriate length; please refer to this article. Many golfers currently wonder how the choice of golf club length affects their swing. The following are insights from leading golf experts to answer golfers' questions and help them choose the most suitable golf club length for a perfect golf swing. Not everyone has the same leg length-to-body ratio; therefore, it's difficult for a shorter person to use a long club and a taller person to use a short golf club. However, not everyone can have a golf club of any length they want, as regulations stipulate a minimum shaft length of 18 inches and a maximum length of 48 inches. Nowadays, manufacturers produce clubs in standard lengths, but golfers with shorter shafts can customize them to suit their needs. Furthermore, golf club manufacturers also provide standard shaft length measurements for all golfers. Let's learn more with golfers:

Choosing the length of a Driver

The length of a Driver affects clubhead speed and trajectory control. Long clubs help increase clubhead speed, but long shafts make it difficult for players to control stability, making it difficult to contact the ball. At the same time, choosing how long a golf club is depends on each golfer's golf strategy. Therefore, the current average driver length of 44.5-45.5 inches is suitable for most golfers. Choosing Iron Length The standard length of a 9-iron is 35.5 inches (90.17 cm) for men – plus 1.27 cm for the next number. This standard length is suitable for golfers with a height of 1.75 m - 1.82 m.

Choosing the right putter length

In addition, to have a good putting shot, players also need to choose the right putter length. Most putters have a length between 33 and 35 inches. This length is suitable for most golfers. However, if the putter is too long, the golfer will have difficulty observing the ball's trajectory, and the elbow will be too close to the body, making it difficult to perform a pendulum-like movement of the upper body, thus hindering a good putt.

For putters that are too short, the opposite is true; the stance will be too close to the ball, and the eyes will look past the ball, making it difficult for the golfer to observe the ball's direction.

Therefore, to have a good swing, you should choose a golf club with a length that suits your body structure. If you are still worried about how to choose the right golf club, choose reputable golf shops to get advice from experts on selecting the most suitable golf club for yourself. Hopefully this article will provide golfers with useful information about the noble sport of golf.
