Golf

A number like 5 or 6 refers to a length of 35 or 36 inches. H is heavy, L is light, so LB would be light blade. O is offset for the hosel design. M is generally men's model or medium weight, but can refer to mallet. S or STD is standard. F or FL is flange. I do not know what A means. LaFemme or W is the woman's line, and often is a 3 (33 inches).

One under par for a hole is one shot less than par, say you make a 3 on a par 4, this is a birdie. One under for a round is where you had a round which was one shot less than par, say you shot 71 on a par 72.
For holes played, or for that round, or for the tournament, the player has taken one less shot to play those holes than par.

You can either poke your cheeks where you want the dimples for five minutes while smile every day or you can pinch your cheeks with your thumb and index. You press your index in while you smile for 1 min every day. You can do either one of these for a week and then you'll get beautiful, natural, cute dimples.

No. One theory is that the word "golf" actually comes from the dutch word "kolf" meaning "club".

The idea that the game of golf is derived from "Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden" is an urban legend. The word "golf" first appeared in the 15th century. There are several theories as to where it came from, but no one ever suggested the acronym theory until the 20th century.

One can buy golf flags in bulk by one of two ways. The first is by ordering them from online websites such as Amazon, Flagguys, Ebay and SuperPages. The second one is by visiting stores that deal in sports equipment and items.

there isn't a clear line as to when a handicap becomes "good". Everybody progresses at their own rate. There are people who have been playing for 15 years or more, who can't shoot under 95 ever.

A player with a handicap of zero (or better.)

A 3 iron is normally about 21 degrees.

A 20 degree hybrid will act like a 2 iron, yes a 3 iron normally is 21 degrees, obviously the hybrid is 1 degree stronger, but it is also slightly longer which will also increase distance.

Phil mickelson ....

men...as well as Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els also uses one (there are many more but I can't recall...these are certainly the two biggest names)

on the womens side Lorena Ochoa (Womens Number 1 right now) also uses a Callaway

Yes she does. There just aren't as many LPGA events as there used to be so we don't get to see her as often.

Jack Nicklaus has 19 runner up finishes in major championships.

A golf cart is also called a golf car since "carts" are not self-propelled. It is a small vehicle designed originally to carry two golfers and their golf clubs around a golf course or on desert trails with less effort than walking.

You could do better ball, where both players play out the hole with their own ball and the lowest score is taken. Scramble, where both players hit a drive, take the best one, both players hit the approach, take the best one, and then both hit the putt, take the best one. Foursomes, Player A hits the drive on the odd holes, player B hits the approach and so on, on the even holes player B hits the tee shot, and player A hits the approach etc. Or greensomes, where both players hit a tee shot, the best one is taken, whoever's tee shot is not chosen hits the approach and the rest of the hole is player out in alternate shots from there.

There are a few different names for them, back in the 60's they were called shag bags, but that name has fallen out of usage. They are now called practice bags or clikka tubes, which are the tubes which collect the balls.

However, you may be talking about a tee, which is what the ball is placed on at the beginning of a hole.

System 36 (For Open Amateur Competition when handicap is not available) During the game player carries no handicap. - For a par or better, the golfer will gets 2 points, - for a bogey will gets 1 point - No point for double bogey or worst. System 36 normally followed by either stroke play or stable ford with the 'handicap' obtained after the game using System 36 method. Example: If a golfer bogeys all the hole, his total point is 18 , so 36-18 = 18 his handicap is 18; if a golfer pars all the hole, his total is 36 thus 36-36 = 0....his handicap is 0

Double-eagle

there is no reason, it is just a colloquialism. One possible answer is "keenest position". The other possible reason is that some wacky tournament director 100 years ago used KP because CP was taken for something else.

US vs. Europeans is the Ryder Cup... US vs. International teams, that is the president's cup. They are both played every two years.
