Wood
When the clubmakers began, the only way to make a long distance club, with enough mass in the head was to use wood that was abundant and can be done by hand.
Until the 1970s, forests still deserves its name. The designs were rather traditional, and the only option I had then was between clubheads carved from a single block of wood and laminates.
The clubhead solid wooden persimmon, was and is the preferred option, as it is considered to offer better feel. Because it is also expensive, persimmon is used for manufacturing best quality woods.
Maple plywood is still used by some manufacturers, and indeed is very effective. Do not think that is necessarily a head rolling lower. If the club is well made and equipped with a high quality axis, there is no reason that should not work.
If you like the sensation of head wood, stick with them. Many successful tour players, including Nick Faldo, Fred Couples, Ian Woosnam tried metal-headed drivers, but have since become to khaki.
Wooden heads in general tend to adapt to the best golfer, because wood can not offer the features to better suit the bosses to metal or composite.
It is very difficult for a layman today to learn the difference between good and bad wood club head. Ideally, good wood must have a very dense grain and of a dark brown color, indicating that the wood has matured and will not warp over. However, forests can be stained or treated with a dark varnish, making a trial almost impossible.
It is very important that you protect your wood clubheads and shock and moisture. You must clean up after each shot when playing on wet and dry in an airy, but not near a radiator. If you take care of them and wooden clubs to age gracefully.
Metal
When metal-headed woods were released for the first time in the 1970s, which failed to grab the public imagination, especially since the heads were very small and golfers still wanted to hit a large area. Clubmakers overcame the problem with the innovative weight distribution allows metal-headed woods to be designed along conventional lines wooden heads.
The next breakthrough came with the refinement of the rods Lightweight graphite which complements the metal heads, and now drivers and fairway woods metal dominate the market with an unimaginable range of products.
lumber metal offer two advantages over wooden clubs: they can be weighed Ted perimeter, which helps to correct my shots hit, and its weight can be customized for steel, graphite or titanium axles. The forest of light metal allow you to gain head speed and therefore distance.
Through the 1980s, the metal forests were refined head. heads of large and medium-heads and low profile heads without necks are designed for a particular purpose, whether down the center of gravity, reducing spin and increasing the hitting area. metal woods also come in a variety of lofts.
Correction errors metal woods with faces hooded or open, usually about 2 ° in both directions, as well as the squares are designed for the golfer who has rooted swing error, like a piece, but has no time or inclination to go to the street practice and correct the problem.
The disadvantage of metal heads is the loss of sensation in comparison with wooden sticks. But as the Rules of Golf in January 1992 changed to allow inserts, the faces of a metal head woods and irons are fitted with inserts of graphite to give a softer feel at impact.
