Why Clone Golf Clubs Could Be The Best Thing For Your Handicap
Posted by Mark Walters under: Golf .
Back in the day there was a saying in golf you cant buy a better game meaning getting to single figures took application and countless hours of practice. Modern club design though really does allow you to buy a lower handicap.
For the average club, modern golf clubs are designed to correct specific problems. From the design of the clubhead, to the shaft flex and bend point to the size and material of the grip. All the pieces of a golf club can be fine tuned to correct specific ball flight problems and create a more consistent and repeatable strike.
Watch a hundred golfers swinging and you'll most likely see 100 versions of the golf swing. We all swing differently and the only club that will work for us is a club designed around OUR swings. that's where Clone Golf Clubs come into their own.
These aren't some cheapo copies of Titleist or Taylormade. These aren't clubs that hide behind a similar sounding name or copy the paint schemes off an OEM. These are quality custom golf clubs in their own right and include all the major elements of modern club design.
None of the big OEMs hold the patents for square drivers, irons with cavity backs or plumber necked putters. These are forgiving golf club designs used by all the major manufacturers, including manufacturers of quality clone golf clubs.
Some people would argue that the quality of clone golf clubs is low, that they use low grade materials. Well, Ive got some news for them. The kind of Titanium used in driver heads for example is currently around $3 a kilo. that's about five drivers worth. Why use a low quality material when for $3 you have enough Titanium to make 5 driver heads?
Some people would insist that the tolerances on clone golf clubs aren't as high as the big OEMs. Again, Id have to disagree. Cast clubs are produced from a mould and its exactly the same cost to use a high quality mould as it is from one with low tolerances.
All the top Pros use top of the range clubs, no question. These are not however off-the-rack clubs. These are golf clubs which have been customized to suit their specifications and particular preferences.
The only clubs that will work for your swing are clubs that have been custom built to make the most of your own swing characteristics. Your build, your swing speed, your usual ball flight. To play your best golf more often, you need to match your clubs to your swing, not your swing to the clubs. A high price tag doesnt enter into the equation. You'll see more improvement from using a set of custom clone golf clubs than from trying to adapt your swing to an expensive set of stock clubs.
