Each session will last one hour long. The price of this event has not been determined, if you are interested in this event please contact Kieran at 609~ 618~2467. Thank you again for viewing my website.

Do you know what bounce is?? Do you know where it is?? And what effect it has when playing?? Bounce is normally found on our sand wedges and lob wedges. They are located on the back part of the sole on these particular clubs. They effect how you hit the ball out of a bunker and how you hit the ball from the fairway.

For example if you take a very deep divot from the fairway we call that type of contact a digger. For this type of person you are going to need at least 12 degrees if not 14 degrees of bounce on your wedges.

On the other hand if you take very little divot you may need 8 degrees of bounce. The same can hold true out of the bunker. Just to let you know I have been fitted and use 8 degrees on my lob wedge and 10 degrees on my sand wedge. Again like anything else in golf, let a club maker and golf pro watch you hit balls when doing this and then get fitted to what they see and advise.

Beginners should I believe have the following golf clubs in their golf bags to get going:

• Sand wedge,
• pitching wedge,
• 8iron,
• 6 iron,
• 5 wood,
• putter.

If you you are golfer who shoots between 95 and 110 you may want to add with the following golf clubs, (3,5,7 and9 woods) then have a (5,7and9 and PW and SW) plus putter.

For those who shoot from 90 and lower you can have the whole bag filled, but instead of having 3 and 4 irons you may wish to put hybrid golf clubs in your bag and begin with a 5iron on down. Again its important that you have a PGA Professional check your swing out or at least a Master Club Maker look at you when making these decisions.

Have you ever thought what would happen if you had the wrong grip size on your clubs. For example if you had smaller hands and put a Large or Jumbo golf grips on you would slice or fade the the golf ball. The other holds true if you have large hands and you put a smaller grip on you are likely to hook the ball.

So let’s examine the following, if you wear a golf glove of the size (small, and medium) you want a “standard golf grip” on your clubs. If you wear a size (medium large and large) you should look into the “midsized golf grips”. And finally if you wear an extra large glove look into the “jumbo sized golf grips”.

Of course it helps that you visit a PGA Professional or Master Club Professional for advice and to be fitted correctly.
