It’s never comfortable needing for assistance, but in golf, it’s
Virtually a requirement. Alas, we frequently ask our
Chums and mates, when really we should have a
lesson or two.
We believe that a professional would criticize harshly, but they
are truthful, confident and extremely helpful.
Tuition at the local club isn’t as dear as you
May believe and they’re worth it because your game
will accelerate quickly and cause you less heartbreak,
making the game a great deal more pleasurable for you.
Of greatest importance, is being truthful about your game.
The professional will ask you what you want to begin with;
driving, chipping, putting or anything you feel you
Require assistance with.
Listen closely and follow the directions. You may
have uncertainties if the professional alters your posture, your grip
or your swing; the professional knows better.

The first written, laid down rules, come from the year 1744 by the Gentlemen golfers of Leith. The modern golf rules have their origin however in the 1754 established Royal & Ancient golf club of St Andrews (R&A). Today they are published jointly by R&A and USGA and have currently been revised for the end of 2007. A peculiarity in golf is the very large and extensively size of the playing field (the so-called golf course) so the rules must uncover a multitude of conceivable situations. For this reason the control device is more extensive than that of the most other sports and even seasoned players are occasionally uncertain as to which rule to use in any given situation.

Whoever plays golf will certainly recognize that it can be rather expensive to buy continuously new golf balls. For this reason many golfers are on the search for used golf balls for their golf bag. On the internet one can finds these so-called “Lake balls” in quite a few Shops for a few cents per pop. One often reaches into ones bag on many occasions and draws out a No-Name ball. When shopping for Lakeballs one can also choose among Lakeballs from the most diverse brand manufacturers. Of course there are also some differences with the prices for the balls here but it mainly depends on how played the golf balls is. The quality varies from store to store depending on where you shop.

They say Golf is the easiest game to learn but the hardest game to play…but why?
Golf is actually a simple game. One has a set of clubs and a ball. One whacks the ball into a few holes that were dug into the middle of a big lawn surface. Then after the 18th hole one has the irresistible desire to go into the 19th hole and tell those he didn’t play with that day about his heroic deeds on the course. Most of us play golf for recuperation and because we enjoy nature and looking at great landscapes. But also, of course, because of the athletic Energy and the improvement of our game. Reducing ones handicap is also a part of the Golf game that one should not fail to neglect.

I thought it might be interesting for my readers to see what the Germans get up to regarding Golf:
“It is not only they wild youth that play Cross Golf. Rather, it is a mixture of all ages and social classes ranging from those with great golf abilities to those who can barely swing a club. It is played anywhere there is enough room and no danger to people or objects exists. There is only one rule for this golf away from the golf course: Safety First!
It isn’t surprising either that it is not played with normal but with soft golf balls. These are lighter and don’t cause any damage if they hit people or objects. Arranging to meet for games is done in the most peculiar way. It is a toss up as to whether mobile phone or internet is the most common meeting point for players. There are also the weirdest of venues used in order to arrange a round of Cross Golf for example:

The Scotsmen invented this “clean” sport and made it popular. Today, golf played is throughout the whole world and since 1900 is an Olympic sport.
In the course of this development, there were naturally numerous innovative new developments to the equipment that one requires for this sport. One major development is obviously the present abundance of online Golf stores peddling all sorts of gadgets, equipments and information.
But not only this. Most on-line Golf shops are built to be very informative. One can learn something about the history of the sport, existing golf courses, existing golf clubs, the current golf tournaments and everything which one would like to know about the “white” sport.
The most important thing about online Golf shops is the range of golf equipment of course. And also here there are no borders to hinder the fullness of information and possibilities. One gets everything which one requires on the golf course, the whole nine yards from complete equipment for beginners, up to high-quality individual parts for advanced golfers.

What is the ideal golfing trip? Clearly, it will be different for everybody.
For some golfers the ideal outing would be going to a major course and getting to play on it, knowing professional golfers had walked and played over these same greens. What golfer would not want to play the course where the Masters or U.S. Open is held? Most would kill (figuratively speaking) for the chance. These are courses where legends have played – players such as Arnold Palmer and Tiger Woods. For others, though, ideal golfing is not so much where they play as what it is like when they play i.e. the weather conditions. Some golfers prefer a day with mild temperatures and a light breeze to help keep them cool, while others want a challenge and will go to the extremes weather-wise. There are those who will play when the temperature hits triple digits or drops well below freezing, just to see how well they play under these extreme circumstances.

So you think that Golf is easy?
O.K., So I toss a little white ball on the ground and puck it with a fat-headed metal stick till it falls in a hole…..how hard can that be?
