Is it easy to break a golf club by hitting the ground before the ball?
I am just starting to golf and was at the driving range today hitting with borrowed clubs. I was using a 1 wood and after the second swing, the club head broke off and went about 40 yards. Is this normal, or did I hit the ground or something? I was scared to hit a driver after that and just stuck with the irons. I’m kind of scared to hit another driver. Is it that easy to break them? Do I just need to be a lot more careful? Thanks.
During the high school golf season I have between 20-30 golfers hitting a “shag bag” with about 50 balls twice on most days of practice. This past year we had 2 clubs break. The year before we had 4. It’s not normal to break clubs, but it does happen. One of the biggest problems on driving ranges is hitting off the very hard fake grass mats. These mats will bend your shafts if you are hitting the ground while swinging. Without knowing the make and age of the club it’s hard to tell you if the club was bad.
Of the 6 clubs that were broken only 1 of them when the player hit behind the ball and he was using an iron. The rest were drivers and 3 woods. I was watching one of the players who took a normal swing and at impact the head just took off. Don’t worry about the heads coming off – shafts can be replaced if you save the head (and the head is worth fixing). Have fun.
