A Guide To Golf

Overview

Golfing has become an incredibly popular sport. Most who participate say it’s rather addictive, to say the least. But it’s also a demanding sport. You’ll quickly learn the differences between the seven iron and the seven wood, when to use the one iron (or that you’ll likely never use it), and how to extract yourself from a sand trap. But the sport has tons of subtleties as well and the technical age has definitely made an impact. You can measure the “speed” of the course using a stimp meter and track your scores to establish your golf handicap using the latest software. You may even choose an interactive program to critique and help correct your swing.

From custom made golf clubs to the latest gadget, manufacturers of golf equipment and accessories have become a major economic industry. You’ll find people who make a living giving golf lessons and schools that will take you in for a week or more to break those bad habits and help you establish a better stance and grip. It’s more than being able to drive – it’s about putting, getting in shape and keeping your eye on the ball. It is, very simply, golf.
