Instructions

    • 1

      Determine what clubs the recipient needs or wants (an entire set, woods, irons, or a particular club). Perhaps there is a club he or she has been talking about for some time?

    • 2

      Consider purchasing or creating a gift certificate for golf clubs. It is tough to walk into a golf shop and buy the right clubs for someone else.

    • 3

      Consider purchasing the club or clubs with the understanding that they can be brought back in to the store and exchanged. Receiving a club or clubs is much more exciting than a gift certificate.

    • 4

      Locate a shop or retail store with a large selection to choose from. Do some comparison shopping online beforehand if you know what you are looking for.

    • 5

      If the recipient is with you, test the clubs at a range or at a store with an indoor hitting area.

    • 6

      Try several different clubs to see which one suits his or her style.

    • 7

      Find the set of clubs you wish to buy, and then shop around to find the best deal. Again, online comparison shopping might be a good idea.

Tips & Warnings

  • If you are buying a first set of clubs, consider buying used or demos as a starter set.

  • While trying clubs out, hit clubs with different kinds of shaft flexes. Try steel shafts as well a graphite.

  • Consider buying clubs online. Remember to factor in shipping and handling costs as well as delivery time. Having the clubs sent directly to the recipient can save you time and postage.

  • On a per club basis, full sets generally cost less.

  • It's all right to have woods and irons from different manufacturers.
