In days of old, even before 9 irons were called Niblicks and 3 woods were Spoons, a Driver was called a Play Club. It was called a Play Club because its purpose was to put the ball in play from the tee ensuring the best possible position for the second shot in. A club maker of yesterday commissioned to a build a Play Club would certainly take into account his client's swing needs and ability, he would want to ensure his client had a club head with the right amount of loft, fitted to a shaft with the correct flex and length. The club maker would build a Play Club that would allow his client to hit the ball as far as he/she was able, while keeping the ball on the fairway.

 

The raw materials and technology may have changed for the modern club maker but the principles of fitting clients with the best possible golf clubs have not. At Strike Right Golf I will ensure the club you stand on the tee with will give you maximum length, while keeping your ball in play. You should never underestimate the importance of a good tee shot, on an average golf course, you're going to be hitting 14 long tee shots and they should be filling you with confidence and your opponents with dread.
