What type of golf clubs does a beginner need for a round of golf?

GRUMP asked:


I just finished up a golf class last week put on by ESPN in which they gave you a set of Nike Ignite clubs to get started, namely; 4-9 irons, pw, 3-hybrid and a putter. I added a cheap driver (which I’m planning on upgrading to a Nike Summo) and a Wilson 58 deg sand wedge as well. I have played the past two months with this set and feel that I may need more fairway clubs especially for the 5 pars. I’m getting mixed up between some saying I need a 3 and a 5 wood while others say I need 5, 7 and 9 wood. As well, I’m mixed up whether I should get hybrids (like the #3 that I have) to take the place of the woods. Does anyone have suggestions on what I should get to complete my set? BTW, I do like wedges and would like to add either a LW or a GW to my set. Thanks!

I bought my clubs at Golfsmith. I see they give lessons there. They also give lessons at my local golf course. Which is usually a better place to get lessons, at the golf course or in a golf store like Golf Smith?

What type of golf ball responds best on the green?

Dan W asked:


Although hard to believe, I compete in Professional MIni Golf tournaments around the country and was wondering what type of ball would perform best on the green (min golf course lol). I seem to like balls with a lower compression (Maxfli Noodle, Volvik Crystal) yet after reading up on the design of golf balls, I am not sure that this is the right decision. What type of balls (compression, three piece two piece etc.) would help increase my performance.

Why does my golf glove get a hole on the top left index finger & start tearing from there 1st?

tye_golfs_n_dallas asked:


I’m an avid golfer who shoots from the tips and counts every stroke managing to stay in the 80’s. I’ve helped numerous golfers with tips and information but I want to know the reason for one I can’t answer. My golf glove tears a hole on the top left knuckle of my index finger before anywhere else. Why is this? Any real answers? I can only think that maybe my grips are too large when they are said to be regular.

B asked:


Okay its always been my dream to build my own golf resort. I’ve got 500,000. How do I build my resort starting with that. I know that the golf course will cost 2 mil +, but I don’t have that kind of money. And please don’t tell me I need to win the lottery. That would be nice though.
