One should buy hybrid clubs and those with more wood for them. Golfers with an average speed of 80 - 90 mph should use few iron clubs (5 - 6). However, wooden and hybrid clubs should be used instead of long iron ones. The 3, 5 and 7 size wooden clubs should be given to beginners even if the swing speed is less.
