Golf Club
A little unwieldy, but when you’re facing down a group of enemies, nothing says ‘stay back’ like a swing from a nine iron.
The Golf Club is a melee weapon in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. Initially found at golf courses, this blunt-force weapon has quickly become a fan-favorite for players looking to dish out some serious damage in style. Though it’s not the most practical weapon for everyday use, the Golf Club adds a touch of class to chaotic street fights and has a long reach compared to other melee options.
Weapon Overview
Design
The Golf Club is designed with the same aesthetics as a standard golfing iron. Its thin metal frame and flat club head allow for devastating swings that can knock opponents to the ground. The club is painted silver and retains the sleek, clean look of an actual golf club, but once used in combat, it quickly becomes stained with blood.
Performance
The Golf Club offers a balance of range and power in melee combat. While not as fast as smaller Weapons like the Knife, its long reach allows players to strike enemies from a safer distance. Each swing has a satisfying impact, dealing moderate damage with enough force to stagger enemies. Its slower attack speed requires players to time their strikes carefully to avoid getting overwhelmed by faster opponents.
Customization
Like most melee Weapons in GTA V, the Golf Club cannot be customized. Its value lies in its reach and power, rather than any upgrades or attachments.
Locations
The Golf Club can be found in several Places in both GTA V and GTA Online.

Trivia
- The Golf Club is one of the few melee Weapons that are associated with a recreational sport.
- Its long reach and wide swing arc make it useful for crowd control in tight combat situations.
- Using a Golf Club in combat has been a staple in many cinematic moments of GTA V gameplay due to its dramatic knockback effect.
