| Golf irons are used for shorter golf shots that range from 200 yards to less than 100 yards. The best iron to use is determined by the loft of the club head as well as the golfer's ability to hit the ball a specific distance. If you are unsure which brand or type of iron is right for you, you would be smart to read some golf reviews of various irons before making a selection. Recent improvements in golf technology have made it easier for players of all levels to find the irons that best suit their needs. Golf players are divided into three handicaps; low, middle and high. A handicap is a way of measuring a golfers performance against the par on a course. This is usually measured in relationship to a par 72 regulation course. Low-handicap players have single-digit handicaps. This means that he or she generally scores less than 10 strokes over par, or an 82 or less on a par-72 course. These players should carry a driver and at least 1 fairway wood. The low-handicap player will also benefit from playing with lower golf irons. Forged irons are a good choice for these players since they have the weight higher in the face. This allows the player better control. The mid-handicap golfer score averages out to 1 over par on each hole, or somewhere in the 11-20 handicap range. Usually only a 3 through 9 iron are recommended for a mid-handicap player. This is because the 2-iron is very difficult to hit with consistent accuracy. The high-handicap golfer is usually a beginner who shoots close to or over 100. Beginners who have tendency to frequently mis-hit the ball would benefit from cavity back/perimeter weighted irons. These irons tend to be more forgiving. Look into Ping irons or TaylorMade irons for high quality golf irons. |
