Competitive golfers are always in search of the elusive characteristic called confidence. For some, they had it and now have “lost it.” Others, claim never to have had it, and aren;t really sure what it is. Still more know what it is because they “see it in others,” but don’t think they have enough for themselves.

There may be no better way to immediately lower your golf scores than to customize your set make-up. For a very long time the typical set of golf clubs has been what is known as an 8-3-1 set. This means there are 3 woods: driver, 3-wood, and 5-wood. The eight irons in this configuration are typically the 3-iron through pitching wedge, and the last club being the putter.
