How Do You Buy Left-Handed Golf Clubs?
There was a time when left-handed golfers were limited in their options with regard to choice of equipment. Often, the newest, most up-to-date equipment was available only for righties. But in this day of $400 golf shafts and $500 putters, the manufacturers are more than happy to accommodate golfers from both sides of the ball with an opportunity to blow big bucks on new equipment. Begin your search for clubs as you would if you were right handed. If you are a beginner, buy a beginner’s set. For example, hybrid, 5 through 9 irons, pitching wedge and sand wedge. There are just as many good left handed starter sets for lefties as there are for righties. Spend time finding a putter that looks good and feels good in your hands. Most sporting goods stores have practice putting greens. Use these to find “your putter.” Most of the popular models are stocked in left-handed configurations.
