Reduce Your Shots By
Using Your
Powerful Woods
The woods are your power clubs designed to hit
the ball to the maximum distance, producing a long, low
trajectory. They are graded from 1 to 5; and even higher. Like
your irons, as the number rises, the shaft gets shorter and the
club-face becomes more lofted.
You really only need 3 woods in your bag .... your driver,
your 3 or 4 wood (or both) and your 5 wood. Some ladies even
prefer to use their 3 wood as their driver
Drivers
 Driving must be the most important part of your game. You can
make up for the odd wayward shot by holing a putt, but unless
you get a really high percentage of drives on the fairway, good
scoring will always be a struggle.
A good drive sets you up for the hole; a bad one demolishes
your confidence and the chance of you scoring well
Driving is also the easiest part of your game. The ball is
teed up, allowing for your natural instinct of hitting your ball
on your upswing, like scooping it into the air, which is
correct.
The key points in hitting good drives are ….
to position the ball
ahead of the natural bottom of your swing
to stay behind the ball
as you hit it – sweeping it up into the air
a really good grip in which the right hand is behind, not beneath, the shaft
the confidence to accelerate right through – to a firm, long,
perfectly balanced finish

Fairway Woods
 For the average lady golfer, the fairway woods are often the
most used clubs in your bag. Simply because they are easier
to use than long irons and need less strength than the
‘ball-turf’ contact needed with irons.
The 3 and 4 woods are good general purpose woods for
achieving distance. The 5 wood produces the highest and
shortest shots of the woods. It is a great alternative to
the 2 or 3 irons, as well as having the advantage of playing
long semi-recovery shots from the light rough or poor lies.
