Other than the grips which should be replaced every couple years, the clubs should last a few hundred years with good care. Most of the new alloy/composite clubs will never rust so they should last a few thousand years. In practical terms, I play with a 20 year old set of Ping Zing clubs and they work as well today as when new. I also have clubs that are twice that old and still do the job. Edit: This answer would only be correct if one assumed the clubs were rarely played. Regular play will wear the club face over time, creating cupping of the irons in particular and reduced depth in the grooves, affecting spin. The best indicator of wear is to measure the depth of the grooves across the club and to measure the plane of the face of the club to detect cupping. As a reference - Tiger Woods replaces his wedges approximately 4 times per year and goes through 2 sets of irons in a single season (of course, he plays more, makes a living that way - and doesn't pay a cent to replace them).

∙ 13y agoThe driver is the longest club, standard length around 46 inches. The putter would be the shortest club, standard length 33- 35 inches. All clubs descend in length from driver to putter, usually in inch to .25 inch increments.

∙ 13y agoThey would generally try and keep a set of irons for a season, and woods for a season, but they would change wedges every couple of weeks. They could in theory change clubs every day but they like to have some consistency. They usually change woods and hybrids if there is a new model out or they are struggling with their current ones.

∙ 13y agoYes they do like my driver is 3 years old and my pro told me in a year or two I will need a new driver no matter what, this is when I realized that is why I need new clubs every three years or so. Therefore, clubs do age.

No it doesn't. Most times we golfers find a bag we like that has the pockets, storage areas, etc. and throw our clubs in it. It may be a Titelist bag and have Calloway clubs in it. That goes for the pros also. Usually they use a bag with their sponsor's logo, but they play another sponsor's clubs.

What tees do pro golfers use?
Golf professionals use clubs from a variety of manufacturers and are each tailored to each individual to suit their specific individual body type and swing. There is an awful lot to be gained by having a correctly fitted set of clubs, something all pros but not all amateur golfers take advantage of. Most Pros will then select 13 clubs from a pool for possibly 18 clubs (Golfers may only carry 14 clubs, and virtually all serious players will carry a putter!) specifically for the course they are playing on that particular day. They select the clubs that will provide the best combination of clubs taking into consideration trajectory, carry, overall distance, spin rate, feel at impact, course setup and hazards, but it's essentially the clubs they think that will enable them to shoot the lowest score possible for that round! List of clubs modern pros (incl. women) typically use; Driver (1W) 2-Wood 3-Wood 4-Wood 5-Wood 7-Wood 2- Hybrid 3-Hybrid 4-Hybrid 5-Hybrid 2-iron 3-iron 4-iron 5-iron 6-iron 7-iron 8-iron 9-iron Pitching Wedge Attack Wedge Gap Wedge Sand Wedge Lob Wedge High Lob Wedge Putter Not all clubface lofts are universal between clubs marked the same. The lofts vary between individual clubs and manufacturers. ie - XYZ PW has 46 degrees of loft whilst ABC PW has 48 degrees.
Can I get my clubs professionally fitted like the pros do?
Yes. Fitted clubs are fairly popular but it is recommended that you are fairly good at golf before you get this done because it is fairly expensive. Fitted clubs use different components, from different companies. A club head from could be from one company, and the shaft and grip from another. It may also include exact specifications for loft and lie of every club and even a recommendation of what ball to use.
