Fairway woods are a very important tool in your golf bag and there are plenty of different choices as to which ones to play. If you are a beginning golfer you need to be careful as to which fairway woods you start out with. Read on to discover more.

The first thing to consider when choose fairway woods for a beginning golfer is probably price. Unless you are rich and price is not an object, then you can consult a professional and have clubs built perfectly for you. Since most of us are not in that situation you will want to keep your woods within your price range.

This may limit your selection just a bit, but no need to worry there are still plenty of great options for a beginning golfer. Another thing to consider is which clubs are easiest to hit. Beginning golfers need to build confidence with their swing and putting clubs in their hands that are not very easy to hit is not a good idea.

So which set of fairway woods should you choose as a beginning golfer? There are a couple of choices that work out best for beginners. First, start with the higher number woods because they are easier to hit and can be great stepping stones to the harder to hit 3 wood and driver. Start with a 5 wood and a 7 woods. You will not get as much distance, but it will be easier to build a good consistent swing.

Second, choose woods with a low profile face because they are easier to hit, especially off the ground. This will give you a better chance to get used to the feel of hitting your woods off the ground and the results will be better with the low profile face.

If you are a beginning golfer, then you need to stay within your price range, choose the higher number woods to begin with like the 5 and 7 woods, and make sure to get woods with a low profile design. You might also want to avoid oversized woods, at first, so that you can get used to the feel of hitting the fairway woods correctly.
