Question

Answer 1

I think you need a petite set, like me. I'm also 5'1" and I have shorter lady golf clubs. You can figure it out yourself by measuring the distance from your wrist to the floor. 30 inches or lower: then you probably need a lady golf club set with shorter shafts.

The easiest way to learn golf like a pro is by following "The Simple Golf Swing" program. It's primarily a 31 page eBook that teaches golfers how to make solid contact with the ball, how to avoid hitting fat, how to avoid slicing, how get more power, accuracy, and consistency in your swing. Consistency being the number 1 golf skill.

You not only get the eBook though, you also receive a ton of extra material including video, lessons on putting, driving, chipping, sand play etc. Here is their official site: http://www.golfswingguru.net

The best thing to do is hit clubs and have some one fit you. Maybe you still have the option to take them back, if so go to the manufactures websites. I have a lot of them listed on my blog roll. Look up to see when they will have a Demo day in your area. Go to it and have them fit you. That will give you the chance to feel the difference and make a decision exchange your clubs. The preferred way to do it is change the lie angle and leave the length of the club the same.

Answer 5

best way is to be custom fitted. ther other way, cheaper, is to grab one club you hate, preferably the 3 iron, and cut it until you feel comfortable swinging it. otherwise look at some other female golfers your height and see what the measurements on their clubs are.
