Before Getting Started

Clubs can be hard on you -- no matter what you buy, they're likely gonna hurt your hands a bit until you get used to them. As your catching skills improve, it'll get better: some advice is to learn to catch in the non-bony part of your hand and don't wear a ring. No, not even your wedding ring :-(

Enjoy!
