Best Golf Clubs for Women: Top 10 Tested & Reviewed

The set begins with the stellar 14-degree driver. Callaway has designed a driver that will ease your learning curve into more advanced ladies golf clubs for beginning golfers who need more height on their drives. 

The driver comes with a headcover to keep the club free of nicks and scratches. The same holds for the fairway wood in the set that clocks in 15-degrees of the loft and the hybrid that substitutes for a 5-iron. 

Both are high performers that shined on the course and come with headcovers.

If we have one complaint about the 14-piece Strata set, it is the gap between the fairway wood and the hybrid. 

With a complete set, we would have liked to see the addition of another hybrid that was lofted in between the two golf clubs. This, however, is a minor complaint and certainly does not affect the performance of the set as a whole.

The six graphite-shafted irons included in the set begin at the 6-iron and continue through the sand wedge. 

Cavity-backed with the weight centered low on the clubface, the Strata plus irons were boomers during our range session. With incredibly high ball flight and increased distance, this set of irons brought the goods.

And although the putter is relatively standard, we found that it did an admirable job of rolling our putts during our testing session. For more putter recommendations, you can also check our list of the best putters for women.

Unlike other sets, we think you’ll do fine with this putter in your bag. Also included is the aforementioned stand bag with lined and padded compartments for each club.

The Strata Plus 14-piece set is an absolute winner for golfers of all ages and levels.

All women’s golf clubs in the Strata set come with graphite shafts for improved swing speed, which helps with the distance provided by the hybrids and long irons. 

A 56-degree sand wedge is included in the Strata set for help in bunkers and long rough. The set is protected by the included stand bag that is stylish and roomy enough for as many balls, tees, and snacks as you could need.

When breaking down the Strata Aqua set, we were immediately taken by how sharp the set looked from the box. 

The woods have large, forgiving club faces that instilled confidence from the first swing. The stainless steel heads on the irons are cavity-backed and have large sweet spots that provide a solid feel once we hit the range. 

And we adored how the wedges performed from inside fifty yards. At first glance, this is a set worth its reputation.

However, once we dug a little deeper, we noticed a few nagging things that might force the average golfer to extend their learning curve. 

The Strata set comes with a 10.5-degree driver. However, we prefer a women’s set that comes with a 12-13 degree lofted driver to aid in getting the ball into the air, so this was a slight disappointment. 

The same goes for the ordinary blade putter, as it will force you to think about upgrading due to its underwhelming performance.

Affordable and thorough, the Callaway Strata Women’s Ultimate 16-piece Set is a dynamic performer that overcomes a few complaints to create a set of ladies golf clubs that are ready to perform from the moment they leave the box.

This set has four cavity-backed irons, beginning with the 6-iron and ending with a 9-iron. All utilize the lightweight graphite shafts to increase swing speed and allow the golfer to attack with more power. The wide sweet spot on each iron offers improved forgiveness alongside the added distance.

One of our favorite additions to the Wilson set is having two wedges in the bag. The set comes with a pitching and sand wedge, handy for golfers struggling to get out of trouble around the green. Both wedges have wide soles for outstanding turf interaction and a smooth finish for a stylish look. 

If we had a complaint to file on this terrific set it revolves around the bag. Although it offers plenty of storage, it is a cart bag. While that small detail might not be a big deal if you play with a cart most of the time, the lack of stand legs is a disappointment for golfers looking for exercise.

Also, the top of the bag has only five openings which can clump the women’s golf clubs together and cause rattling in the cart or across your shoulders.

Gripes about the bag aside, the performance of the Wilson Profile SGI Golf Club Set is what makes it shine for mid and high handicappers looking for a complete upgrade to their golf equipment.

Set Composition

The Gyro set consists of three woods, five irons, a mallet putter, and a cart bag with multiple pockets.

The woods start with a 460cc driver, 3-wood, and 6-hybrid. The driver offers a broad sweet spot with a clean feel and instant response. You won’t mistake the driver for one from TaylorMade or Callaway, but it will do just fine for beginning golfers to learn the ropes.

The five irons in the set run from a 6-iron to a pitching wedge. The irons are heavy, but the stability helps keep the club’s head steady through the impact zone. The perimeter-weighting around the face also balances the club while offering decent forgiveness on off-center strikes.

How Do They Play?

If you are looking for a highlight of the set, we choose the oversized irons. You won’t be able to shape your shots with these irons, but if you are looking to hit the ball higher and straighter, we found the irons reached this threshold during our testing.

The mallet putter won’t turn heads but delivers a consistent forward roll without skipping and bouncing after impact.

Overall Verdict

Considering their price, this set delivers solid performance for beginning golfers. Since these golfers need more carry and launch with each shot, the set provides a design for each club that encourages that lift.

Primarily for beginners and high handicappers, the Ray Cook Gyro set delivers solid performance at an affordable price.

Set Composition

The eight clubs in this set include two woods, a driver and a hybrid, along with five irons, a blade putter, and a cart bag utilizing a pink and grey color palette. 

The 460cc driver provides golfers with high launch, something we witnessed with delight during our testing. Yes, the driver lacks feel, but chances are high you are not looking to hit sweeping draws around doglegs, so what it provides for high handicappers certainly fits your needs.

The shape of the iron’s face is longer than your standard super-game improvement irons, and that’s not necessarily a bad thing, because the irons provide more forgiveness than we expected.

How Do They Play?

Truth be told, the GolfGirl set plays well if you are looking to get the ball in the air and down the fairway with more accuracy and consistency. These clubs are not the longest we’ve tested but the irons offer marginal forgiveness and the woods are very easy to hit.

We liked how the blade putter provided a delicate touch on mid-range putts with impressive accuracy on the putting green.

Overall Verdict

This set isn’t as big or broad in scope as some of the others on this list, but what it lacks in numbers, it makes up for in value. The set offers a budget-conscious alternative to the high handicapper that plays more fun and less for glory.

Even though beginners should turn their attention to the fairway wood and hybrid, when the time comes to learn the driver, the M5 set has a monster 460cc that performed well during our testing. 

Solid through the golf ball, all three woods did a solid job of achieving a nice ball height and moderate distance.

The irons included in the M5 set are the 5-iron through pitching wedge. Again, it is disappointing that we have another complete set that has disregarded the sand wedge and although it is upon you to buy one, the reduced cost of the M5 set will certainly offset those future expenditures. 

During our testing, the irons stayed solid with their graphite shafts minimizing vibrations and aiding in providing solid contact on the golf ball.

Completing the M5 set is a fine stand bag that complements the set’s colors well. In addition to the bag, the wide mallet putter was a standout, with the soft insert promoting true roll on the golf ball.

For the learning golfer, the Precise M5 Ladies Women’s Complete Golf Club Set does a sound job at giving them the tools to succeed.

Starting with a 16-degree driver, the Strata set does it right with a high-lofted club that will help high-handicappers get the ball into the air. If there is a minor complaint among the woods, it is with the next club, the 5-wood with an 18-degree loft. We’d rather see a bigger difference in loft between the two clubs.

The 5-hybrid rounds out the wood set, and it has a 26-degree loft which is ideal for inexperienced golfers.

That said, the woods feel strong in the hands, and the 460cc driver packs a punch when hitting it on the sweet spot. The fairway and hybrid do a solid job at getting the ball flight high for maximum distance.

There are three irons in the set, and the ordering is a bit awkward, but that doesn’t mean that the irons aren’t solidly built. The set comes with a 7 and 9-iron as well as a 54-degree sand wedge. Between the 9-iron and the sand wedge, there is quite a gap in degree loft, so you’d be wise to find a pitching wedge or an A wedge before you start.

Wrapping out the set is a mallet putter with a T-style alignment that is large for an easy lining up of putts. We’d prefer that the clubface on the putter be milled for better contact with the golf ball, but for an entry-level set, it is hard to complain about it.

A lightweight and durable stand bag rounds out the accessories. The bag has plenty of storage with multiple zippered pockets. Also included in the bag are a cooler pocket, a rain hood, and a backpack strap system that makes it easy to carry.

There are many flaws in the Strata Women’s Complete 11-Piece Golf Set, but for the beginning golfer, the set does an excellent job of getting her ready to start her golfing journey.

Set Composition

As with most complete sets, the Believe collection offers a 460cc driver, fairway wood, two hybrids for work from the tee box and fairway. All the woods offer a rounded sole that increases turf interaction while delivering crisp contact that gets the ball in the air incredibly quickly.

The irons do lean a bit on the heavy side, and while that does limit swing speed, the slight loss of distance does not inhibit scoring. These cavity-backed irons keep the ball on target with minimal sidespin.

How Do They Play?

On the course, the first thing you’ll notice is that all of the clubs offer easy launch across the board. As with most complete sets, we are looking for easy lift and clean contact, and with the Founders Club Believe set the collection delivers performance.

Around the green, the short irons and mallet putter works well in getting the ball close to the hole with a smoothness you would find in sets costing much more.

We also found that the bag protects the clubs and provides useful storage for extra accessories.

Overall Verdict

The driver delivers a high launch, the irons keep the ball moving straight at your target, and while it might not dazzle, we found that the set certainly meets the needs of frequent golfers looking to increase their enjoyment and the quality of their play with a complete set.
