how to choose golf clubs(3)

Which Clubs are the most important?

Golf involves many different types of shots. These include drives, chip shots, putts and those that we will politely call troublesome shots (all though these often go by a less printable name out on the green).
Putts are the shots most commonly seen in a game of golf. On average, a golfer uses the putter more than twice as often as any other given club in their set. This makes the putter the most important club in your golf bag. For instance, about 40% of strokes taken in a game where a golfer scores 100 are putts.
Next most important is the #1 wood, or driver. The driver accounts for somewhere between 10-20% of shots taken in a typical golf game (depending on the terrain of the course and the skill level of the player). The driver is very important; a bad drive makes for a bad game of golf after all.
The wedge may be used almost as much as the driver. This is especially true of beginning players who have a difficult time getting to the green in the proper number of strokes. A beginner will usually use up to twenty strokes getting to the green.
In a normal game of golf, the other clubs will come into play, but rarely more than two or three times per game. Driver, putter and wedge are used far more often than the rest of your set. Think of these three as the stars of your set of clubs, with the rest playing supporting roles.
A club which is hard to use will cause untold problems for the novice golfer. The harder it is to use, the more mishaps will happen. Irons, drivers and woods all carry the risk of making for a truly awful shot for the less experienced golfer. Of course, you could just bring an entire bucket of balls, but there is an easier way to get your golf game going well.
