Golf is an outdoor sport played with clubs and a small ball. It is played on a large, grassy area called a course. Golfers hit the ball into a series of holes on the course. The goal is to finish playing the course with as few hits, or strokes, as possible.

Playing Area and Equipment

A standard golf course has 18 holes. The playing area for each hole varies in length from about 100 to 600 yards (90 to 550 meters). Play begins at a spot called the teeing area. It is a flat, rectangular patch of short grass. In front of the teeing area is a mowed strip called the fairway. The fairway is the longest section of each hole. The fairway extends to an area of closely mowed grass called the green. Each green has a hole, called the cup, that measures about 4 inches (10 centimeters) across.

Many golf holes have features that make play more difficult. These include obstacles called hazards. One type of hazard is a sand-filled pit called a bunker, or sand trap. Holes may also have water hazards, such as streams or ponds. An area called the rough runs along both sides of the fairway. The rough is made up of long grass, bushes, and trees.

Golfers use a variety of clubs to hit the ball. Each club has a small hitting area at the end of a shaft. Golfers may choose a different club for each swing at the ball. They choose a club based on how far they want to hit the ball.

A golf ball is small and hard. It is made mostly of rubber. It is usually white.

Playing the Game

Golfers start playing in the teeing area. From there, they hit the ball toward the hole. They try to keep the ball on the fairway and the green. They try to avoid hitting the ball into bunkers, water hazards, or the rough. When the ball reaches the green, a golfer uses a club called a putter for the final hits toward the cup. Every time the ball is hit, one stroke is counted.

The most common type of golf competition is called stroke (or medal) play. In stroke play, the player with the lowest total number of strokes is the winner. Individual golfers have another way of judging how well they are doing. They measure their play against a standard score known as par. Par is the number of strokes an expert player would need to complete a hole.

History

Historians believe that early forms of golf were played in the Netherlands first and then in Scotland. The modern game developed in Scotland. The first golf courses were fields of grass that sheep had clipped short while grazing. The world’s oldest golf organization was formed in Scotland in 1744. It created the earliest-known rules of the game.

Golf balls were originally made of wood. Wood was replaced in the 1600s by boiled feathers stuffed in a leather cover. In the 1800s people started making balls with gutta-percha, a leathery material that comes from certain trees. Balls made of hard rubber appeared in the 1900s.

Golf started to gain some world attention in the second half of the 1800s. At that time British golfers were generally considered to be the best in the world. John Henry Taylor, Harry Vardon, and James Braid were famous British golfers of the period. In the 1920s golfers from the United States began to excel. Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, and Gene Sarazen were outstanding U.S. golfers from that time. Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods were later stars. Great women golfers included Patty Berg, Mickey Wright, and Annika Sorenstam

I’m watching this video on 15 right now with a 130 I’m about to quit this stupid fucking game

Ty 👍

I’m going golfing today 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂

I've never played golf in my life and now I'm being asked to go and play more often than ever. My field of work this is a traditional array of opportunities for others to converse back and forth with little effort and distraction. I watched your first video and I am going to follow your process to the TEE. 😊 Thank you for making a great video and how to! I am excited!

have just started a week back and your video is pretty helpful, big thanks.

This is very impactful

Wow, not played in 10 years went to range last week it was a disaster. Found this and followed it to the letter in every shot and I am amazed at the difference. Thank you I feel this has really accelerated me getting back into golf

Goin up to a cute guys cabin and gotta impress him with mountain golf. Will let you know if this ended up helping

Thank you very much for the free lesson

Don’t supppse I can buy the clubs you guys have am sure you have new ones by now 😂 please

Wow, great video. Been playing for nearly a decade yet not getting it right. Often I hit the ground before the ball.

Thank u! So helpful !

I have never played golf and I was not interested in watching this guide for professionals. All the comments were superficial and the pictures replaced each other very quickly, which made it clear to me in the third minute that nothing was clear and it was not interesting to watch two pompous dudes show off in front of the audience instead of telling something useful!

I want to learn how to play!

Thanks!

Thanks for the intro. Got invited to go golfing with a few co workers. I’ve never been before and i’m worried about looking like a complete idiot.

Was going to watch this video but saw vogue Williams in an ad before it. So made this comment and left

really good teaching guys

I went golfing for the first time with my dad the other day. He told me to interlock my hands. I was whiffing and hitting the top of the ball. Then I changed my grip to the baseball grip and was actually hitting the ball and hitting it straight and moderately far. Before I changed my grip I was getting so frustrated that I was thinking I’d never go golfing again. After I changed my grip I had hope that I might get the hang of it.

Just amazing.

Wish you spent more time on the stance and aim. I never know how close or how far to stand away from the golf ball. Any tips?

You guys are just amazing.. I watched this and other beginner videos that you have created over and over again and it helped me work on my swings, posture, grip, hip movement, and swings. would love see more from you. having such tutorials freely accessible is so important. 👍

1. Feet, knees, hips, shoulders parallel to target line
2. Shoulder width, ball position varies but between feet.
