Start small
What to remember
You do not need every club on day one. A half set can be enough for lessons and early rounds.
Shoes and glove
What to remember
Good shoes help balance. A glove helps grip, especially in humid Singapore weather.
Ball choice
What to remember
Use affordable balls while learning. Losing balls is normal in the first stage.

Singapore Practice Note
Keep it realistic
In Singapore heat, bring water, plan shade breaks, and keep practice goals short. A focused 30 minutes often beats a tired 90 minutes.
