The so-called woods are the lengthiest   golfclub  a golfer will have  .  The longest   golfclub gives ability to  golfers   to drive the ball  greater distance   and the driver is  the greatest length club  .  Ignoring the clubs' name  , woods are not made of wood  anymore. Ordinarily, they are made from titanium, steel or fiber-reinforced  composite materials that are  better   than wood.
Irons are  typically   more difficult to use than woods for  beginners  .  Irons incorporate   a lower loft (the slant of the face that yields a higher flight pattern) and less mass behind the faces of one and two irons than with their wood counterparts. Commonly,  a golfer   will have the three through nine irons.
So-called woods   are numbered one through five, and irons are numbered two through nine. The numbers of the clubs are related to the  clubs' loft  . Golflub having a lower number have faces that are more perpendicular to  a level plane  ,  making   the ball to go farther. However, it is more difficult to control the ball with a lower numbered club due to the angle of the face, so the skill level of the golfer is the biggest factor in deciding  the clubs they will have.
Wedges are used for  short shots  to the green because they allow for increased loft that is needed for stopping the ball. A pitching wedge is the longest, a sand wedge is in the middle, and a lob wedge is the shortest.
Putters are the shortest club in a golfer's bag and are only used on the green.
