Complete Golf Set for Men

Driver, hybrid, irons, wedges and putter: the role of each club

A golf set covers all situations on the course. The driver, with the lowest loft, is used for teeing off on long holes; the fairway wood takes over on the fairway. The hybrid replaces the three or four irons, which can be hard to lift for an average player. The irons, from five or six to nine, manage shots towards the green with a gap of about ten meters between two numbers. The pitching wedge or sand wedge handles approaches and bunkers, and the putter finishes the hole. The bag, either stand or cart type, completes the set.

All the clubs are gathered on the men's clubs page.

Senior, regular or stiff: choosing the shaft flex

The flex refers to the stiffness of the shaft, and it’s chosen based on the swing speed, measured with the driver. Below about eighty-five miles per hour, a senior flex, marked A, helps get the ball airborne. Between eighty-five and ninety-five, the regular, marked R, suits most amateur golfers. Above that, the stiff, marked S, limits the twisting of the shaft and tightens dispersion. A flex that is too stiff causes the ball to go low and right for a right-handed player; too soft, it causes it to rise excessively and turn left.

Right-handed or left-handed, length and grip

A right-handed golfer stands with their left shoulder toward the target; the left-handed golfer needs heads oriented the opposite way, and since the selection of left-handed kits is more limited, it should be checked first. The standard length suits men around one metre seventy to one metre eighty-five; beyond that, longer clubs by one or two centimetres prevent excessive bending at address. The grip should allow the fingers of the top hand to lightly touch the palm: if it’s too thin, it encourages closing the face; if it’s too thick, it hampers the wrists from relaxing.

Good deals

Good bargains can also be found in good deals, promotions, clearance sales, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped in 24h are prepared and sent within 24 hours. The highlights of the year follow a stable order: the Black Friday at the end of autumn, the holiday season, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, then the summer sales and back-to-school season.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many clubs are in a men's golf set?

Most sets have around ten clubs, bag included, under the fourteen limit set by golf rules. This selection already covers teeing off, iron play, approaches, and putting.

Is a golf set suitable for an intermediate player?

Yes, as long as the player is looking primarily for forgiveness. As they improve, they gradually replace certain clubs, often the driver or wedges, with individually chosen models based on their distances.

What club should I use at the driving range to start?

Start with a seven iron or an eight iron, which is short enough to control and long enough to feel a real contact with the ball. Once you have the swing down, move on to longer clubs, and then to the driver.

How should I hold a golf club?

For a right-handed player, the left hand goes at the top of the grip, the thumb slightly to the right of the centre, and the right hand comes underneath, covering it. Interlocking, overlapping, or ten-finger grips are chosen based on comfort.

What golf set should a senior choose?

A senior should opt for a set with graphite shafts, which are lighter, in flex A or regular based on their swing speed. Hybrids effectively replace long irons to maintain ball height.
