Golf clubs on average weigh less than a pound each. The types of clubs are wood, iron, wedge, hybrid, putter and chipper. The weight of a club depends on various demographics such as shaft property, club-heads, length and type of swing desired.

According to PurelyGolf.com, “since the 1930’s, golfers have been paying attention to weight and using a concept describing the feel of a club’s (dynamic) weight, “swing-weight.” Golfers, like any other athlete, try to attain a competitive advantage. In most cases, equipment provides such an advantage so that golfers will work and consult with manufacturers to achieve advantageous results on the golf course.
