The distance is measured from the tee box to the middle of the green. If a hole is said to be 480 yds, that distance is from the tee and "usually" to the centre of the green. Yardage markers ie 150 yrds out are measured the same.

It isn't working for me as of 1/13/2011. I get a bunch of ads for Las Vegas. I hope it comes back because all my regular foursomes scores are in there and nowhere else.

Yes

Yes you can but you can not test the surface for example you can touch the green to regain balance you can touch the green to remove debris etc. But you can not "rub" the green to test the surface condition.

If you are shipping any club you will need to make sure the head and the shaft are protected. If you are shipping a lot of clubs put have in grip first and half in grip last. If possible ensure it is secure in a way that the club cannot move about too much.

Anything that affects you handicap lasts for ever. Each new game, if it's a qualifying game changes your handicap - unless the change would be very small.

If your golf ball stops on a man made object, then you can hit the ball one club length from the object as long as it is not closer to the hole than the original stopping position.

It depends on what model. But the 2016 model has an average of 25 mpg.

That means that the par for the course is 71. And THAT means that if you get par on every hole it will equal 71.

The current holders only need 14 points to retain the cup.

System 36 is a method of creating handicaps on the same day of an 18-hole tournament. Most frequently used in friendly tournaments where many of the players don't have official handicaps. The method used is as follows. At the end of play, a tally is made of each players round, counting up the number of holes scoring par or better, the number scoring a bogey and the number scoring double bogey or more. Then each par or better receives 2 points, each bogey receives 1 point and each double bogey or worse receives 0 points. The points are added up and subtracted from 36. This is the handicap for the player. For example, if you par every hole, you will receive a point total of 2 x 18 = 36. Subtracting from 36 gives you a handicap of 0. Another example. A golfer completed the following round:
Hole 1 - par
Hole 2 - bogey
Hole 3 - birdie
Hole 4 - triple bogey
Hole 5 - bogey
Hole 6 - bogey
Hole 7 - double bogey
Hole 8 - bogey
Hole 9 - par
Hole 10 - double bogey
Hole 11 - double bogey
Hole 12 - par
Hole 13 - bogey
Hole 14 - double bogey
Hole 15 - triple bogey
Hole 16 - par
Hole 17 - bogey
Hole 18 - par Total at end of round:
par or better = 6 x 2 = 12
bogeys = 6 x 1 = 6
double bogeys or worse = 6 x 0 = 0 Total points = 18 Handicap = 36 - 18 = 18 Gross = 91
Net = 73

He purchased several antique golf clubs said to have belonged to King James IV of Scotland.

Yes, in hot air the air is a lot thinner so there is less resistance compared to cold air which is a lot denser so more resistance.

Nothing for the name and precious little for being old. Golf Clubs don't make good antiques especially when they have been outdated by new technology.

It's called the "rough". The grass is usually much higher and thicker in these areas.

The final Fed Ex Cup event is the Tour Championship, the field is limited to 30.

A professional golfer would drive the ball around 270-330 yards off the tee consistently.

Repositioned Mass (RPM) technology - it removes weight from the crown of the club head and repositions it to the sole plate of the clubhead. This is to increase ball speed off the face of the club, improve the launch angle at impact with the face of the club with the ball, increase the spin rate of the ball, and give a higher (MOI) moment of inertia.

This is one of the classic iron sets of the modern era. However, as the Asians are not collecting like they once did, most classic golf clubs are worth what you will pay for them. It's a buyers market in the golf business these days. Good for us , bad for OEMs.

To tee off, rather than setting the ball on a tee use a beer can

Forging is a manufacturing technology. Forging is the term for shaping metal by using localized compressive forces. Cold forging is done at room temperature or near room temperature. Hot forging is done at a high temperature, which makes metal easier to shape and less likely to fracture.
