Just learn the different terms of Golf

Golf is an exciting sport but quite complicated for novices because the rules of this sport are certainly, quite complex and sharp sometimes. But before knowing all the rules, you need to know the definition of certain words.

Study each expression in detail and you will expand your golf vocabulary, and understand all the nuances that this wonderful sport offers.

Definition of golf terms

Address

Position of the player in front of the ball before playing

Approach

Golf stroke is intended to reach the green, when you are close to it, with a movement of reduced amplitude.

Backspin

The back effect is given to the ball. A ball that has a lot of backspin rolls shortly after it impacts the ground.

Wood

A club whose head is made of solid wood or metal is then called “Metallic Wood”. The most common are woods numbered from 1 to 7. They are used to make the ball travel long distances.

Bunker

Depression obstacle covered with sand. There are bunkers near the green but also on the course. They are there to make the course more difficult and penalize bad shots.

Chip

Approach stroke is intended to give the ball an average flight height.

Club

Cane used to send the ball by hitting it.

Shot rolled

Approach shot where the ball rises very little, but rolls a lot. It is played very close to the green.

Dog-Leg

Hole that turns left or right. There are holes in “dog-leg on the right” or “dog-leg on the left”.

Iron

A club whose head, narrow, is made of metal. They are numbered from 1 to 10. Pitching wedges and sand wedges are also made of iron.

Putting green

Green in regulation

Said when the green of a par 3 is reached in 1 move, when the green of a par 4 is reached in 2 strokes, and when the green of a par 5 is
reached in 3 moves. Which, in each case, always leaves you 2 putts to finish the round on par.
