Most amateurs and new players are unaware of how important correctly fitted clubs are. Clubs that aren’t fit correctly can lead to many bad habits and injuries.
I think the first step is to find a local PGA Professional or club fitter that can help make the process easier and less stressful. If they aren’t aware of any in the area they can just search online for local professional.
Also, some of he major club companies have an online fitting process through their websites. The process isn’t perfect, but it may be able to help them get started in the right direction.
