An Introduction to Golf – Part One

There’s no doubt about it, the game of golf is one that is massively popular all over the world. Golf is a sport that can provide people of all ages not only a fun, recreational activity but also some type of exercise. Golf is good for the body, it’s good for the mind, it’s good for social activities, and it’s good for business.

 There has been a renewed interest in golf lately among the younger generations with the rise in popularity of golf phenomenon Tiger Woods. These days, golf is enjoyed by young and old alike. It gives all sorts of people the time to spend with family, friends and even business colleagues.

 The game of golf is played on both the amateur and professional levels and good players locally and nationally are much admired within their community. Some of the professional golfers who are most famous are well-known world-wide, and often people strive to emulate them and their amazing playing styles.

 Of course, golf isn’t without its stress. It’s nice to be out on the course when it’s a sunny spring day with a mild breeze, but it can be spoiled by bad shots, horrible lies, water hazards, and missed putts. Even the weather isn’t always on your side and you may be coping with wind and rain as well as your swing.

 Weather apart, golf isn’t an exact science. There are many variables that go into a good golf swing, and it’s nearly impossible to perfect them all – all at the same time. The same applies to all your game,swing, putt, chip etc.

 Even so, golf can become an obsession with some people as they strive to lower their scores and beat their friends. Millions of dollars are spent every year on golf lessons, magazines, how-to videos, and programs that purport to improve your golf swing and lower your score.
