No entry in FE, L

N ~ 球杆 (球桿) [qiúgǎn] 1. noun pool cue; snooker cue
Dr.eye ~ 高爾夫球桿ㄍㄠ ㄦˇ ㄈㄨ ㄑㄧㄡˊ ㄍㄢˇ 1.a golf club
台球的球桿 ㄊㄞˊ ㄑㄧㄡˊ ㄉㄜ˙ ㄑㄧㄡˊ ㄍㄢˇ 1.a cue
冰球桿 ㄅㄧㄥ ㄑㄧㄡˊ ㄍㄢˇ 1.an ice-hockey stick

But 球桿 is not in M, FE, or L

However, TP has many examples, such as:
- 像支棒球桿
It looks like a baseball bat.
- 讓沒打過球的人也都能來碰碰球桿。
[Alternately, perhaps a "golf day" could be designated when golf passes would be free or discounted,] so that newcomers to the sport might get a chance to try their hand at it.
- 球桿架在臉部中心的正下方
The cue is held directly below the center of your face
... and no examples of 球杆.

However, I listened to two Taiwan news videos* where I heard "gān" in the context of golf clubs, so I think, on balance, it's gān on both the mainland and Taiwan.
* e.g. http://www.nexttv.com.tw/news/realtime/hottest/10357077
(e.g at 37 seconds)
Note especially that although the headline text in the video says 球桿, the pronunciation in the audio is gān!

Here's a third video where it's 球桿 pronounced qiúgān.
