As a beginner golfer, you might want to consider buying used golf clubs as a starter set. Of course if you have the money to burn then go ahead and get a new set of clubs, but used golf clubs are more than appropriate for the majority of newcomers to the game. There are quite a few people, especially kids and teenagers, who play for a while but lose enjoyment and end up wasting those new clubs.

The main factors when buying any type of clubs, even used golf clubs, is to make sure that they fit close to your height, arm length, and swing speed. When buying used golf clubs, another important factor is how all of the drivers, irons, and putters feel in your hands and when you swing.

 Used golf clubs can be found in most used sporting good stores, weekend garage sales, classified ads in the newspaper, and of course, through online shopping. You can even check some of the local pro shops at the nearest golf course for any available used golf clubs.

However, I would like to point out that if you can afford used clubs then you can probably afford a set of custom golf clubs from Triangle Custom Clubs.
Our clubs are custom made to your specifications, and are hundreds less than name brand clubs.

Another option would be to learn how to build your own golf clubs. If that interests you then take a look at this…

Here’s what’s going on in the clubshop at Triangle Custom Clubs…

Yes, Golf IS a team sport!

A least it seemed to be this weekend during the Ryder Cup.

I’ve never seen so much fist pumping and jumping around since the USA women’s beach volleyball team won in the Olympics…

But it was very good to see the cup coming back to the USA. (my condolences to my European subscribers…)

Daddy’s got a brand new “groove”

Ok, so I have to admit - I’ve not really been following all the talk about the new groove rule in golf. But it seems that there’s nothing but controversy surrounding it.

But, really - do you care? I mean, the rule doesn’t seem to impact us weekend golfers until around 2024 - and I plan to be retired by then.

Oh wait - the last time I looked at my stocks, I probably won’t retire until I’m 99…

Anyway, I plan to do some research on this new groove and report back to you soon - for what it’s worth…

Wie goes back to school

Q-school that is…

Maybe this will get her head out of the “I’m gonna play with men” clouds and put her back on track to show everyone she is capable of living up to the potential everyone saw in her years ago…

===============================
My father the meth dealer…

Poor 17 year old Tadd Fujikawa. He’s trying to get his start as a professional golfer and the next thing you know his dad, Derrick is charged with running a meth lab in Hawaii.

He could face up to 40 years if convicted, and his trial starts next month.

Tadd has missed 6 cuts in PGA events this year, not to mention ones he missed on the European side.

Hopefully Tadd will work out the troubles in his game and realize that he had no control over the other troubles in his family.
==============================
Four in one is a new record.

This is a new record for PGA sponsored events…

During the first round of the Nationwide Tour Utah Championship four golfers each made a hole-in-one. Four aces in one day is a record.

Unfortunately for the golfers involved, none of them aced the right hole…

…if they had aced the par 3 11th hole the prize was a new Rolex watch.

P.S. Of course, there is always a catch, right?

Well, that’s true here as well. The catch is that I cannot predict when the inventory of the components used to custom make these clubs will run out, so I may have to end this sale at any time. So now’s your chance to get some great clubs at some great prices.

The 2008 Golf Club Blowout

With the Olympics going on, I’m always reminded of the Fossbery Flop - the technique that is used today in the high jump. 

What does ”The Flop” have to do with golf? Well, not much

But it does let me segway into a discussion about the flop shot in golf.

Anytime you need to pop the ball into the air, but only have it travel a short distance with very little roll after it lands, the flop shot is your best option. Setting up the flop shot is simple:

1. Grab yourself a high lofted club. My personal favorite is the 60° wedge.

2. Setup with a basic pitch stance. Move your target line slightly to the left. For right-handed players, you can add more loft to the clubface and open up the face angle. To create even more loft, lay the face of the club open at address.

3. Just like every golf shot you make, your lead hand should be doing its job at all times. Therefore, make sure that your hands are slightly ahead of the ball through the impact in order to maintain an open clubface when it swings down the target line

4. Finally, swing the club very steeply and outside of your target line. Practice this drill over and over until the flop shot becomes your best friend.

Take if from me, the flop can get you out of alot of trouble.
