13 New Clubs For Any Type Of Player Knowing what you want from your wedges, irons and driver is the first step toward knowing what kinds of clubs should be in your bag. Do you want your new clubs single-use or multi-purpose? For example, are you partial to a driver that's big and forgiving or one that allows you to tweak an array of settings? Do you want irons designed to launch it high and far, or do you want a compact head that lets you control trajectory? Even in wedges, you can choose between larger heads with wider soles and limited lofts or models that offer multiple lofts, sole designs and bounce configurations.
