Women’s Golf Clubs

Clubs built to women’s specifications: about an inch shorter than the men’s standard, lighter overall, with a ladies flex graphite shaft, a smaller grip and usually a little more loft. The range is strongest in hybrids, fairway woods and wedges, with Orlimar, Callaway, Pinemeadow, Cobra, Cleveland and Tour Edge models, and Majek petite-length clubs for shorter players. Clubs sold as "for men and women" are left out on purpose; those are standard-length clubs.

Fitment and sizing. Standard women’s length suits most players between about 5 ft 3 in and 5 ft 7 in; petite models are shorter again. Ladies (L) flex is designed for driver swing speeds under roughly 75 mph. A stronger or faster swinger often does better with senior (A) flex.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between women’s and men’s golf clubs?

Length, weight, flex and grip size. Women’s clubs are shorter and lighter with a softer shaft, which helps a slower swing launch the ball higher.

Ladies flex or senior flex?

Ladies flex is the softer of the two. If your driver swing speed is above about 75 mph, or ladies flex shots balloon and drift, try senior flex.

Are there left-handed women’s clubs?

Yes, a small number. The hand is stated in each title, and the left-handed page lists every left-handed club in the catalog.
