As a female golfer you may feel like you have been left out of the loop as most of the reference materials designed for golfers are geared towards men. If you are looking to improve your golfing skills, or if you are just looking for a golf media source that caters to the female golfer, then you should consider subscribing to golf magazines that are designed for women. The list of women’s golf magazines is limited, however, there are a couple of good options.
If you’ve never given thought to your golf tees as part of your golf equipment, now’s the time to start. There are actually many types of tees that you can choose from – each with their own advantages. There are long tees when you need to have the ball teed up high, short tees for those tee box iron shots, and even three-pronged tees for stability. In fact, the three-pronged tee was the first type of golf tee that was used in the early years of golf.
The golf ball really can be a very important piece of golf equipment. Depending on what you are looking for, you can find balls that will improve your distance, your spin, or your performance. Look for balls that are a bit softer – like a balata. Also find a ball with lower compression – especially if you are a beginner.
If you like the idea of carrying your clubs around in one bundle, I guess you can just go ahead. However, a golf bag sure makes carrying your clubs around much easier. Plus, with a good golf bag, you can also carry your tees, your balls, some hand sanitizer, snacks, your cell phone, and anything else you think is necessary.
Of course, your most important pieces of golf equipment are your clubs. You will want to take care to choose clubs that are suited to your style of golf. They should be easy to handle and designed toward your height. Beginners and experts alike should lean towards the lighter graphite shafts and titanium heads so that you have maximum forgiveness in the event of a bad shot.
You will want to have a full set of clubs. That means you’ll need a driver, a 3 wood, a 5 wood, a full set of irons (from 3 to 9), a sand wedge, and a putter. That’s the minimum. You can also add other clubs to your arsenal as you become more proficient at the game. You can include a 1 iron for fairway shots as well as a lob wedge for getting out of the deep rough.
Your first option is Golf Digest for women, more commonly referred to as Golf for Women. This magazine offers columns that provide female focused articles on golf tips, stories, and golfer profiles. Some of the departments that this magazine offers include: equipment, instruction, GFW Handicap, course and travel, and a let’s talk golf column. If you would like to preview this periodical before you buy it then you can visit its website. Here you will not only find the same information that is found within the print version of the magazine, but you will also find subscription information and pricing information.
Women’s World of Golf Magazine is another option that you have if you are interested in women’s golf periodicals. This magazine offers the basics like Instructions and equipment information. However, it also offers information on the LPGA, golf fashion for women, and women’s golf vacation profiles.
