Well, one could find a local sports store at a supermarket or mall. Then there is the alternative of ordering online. When ordering online, there are many places to look at. Some good choices are Amazon, Overstock or eBay for both new and used golf equipment. Then there are specialized online stores, like The Sport HQ, Sport's Authority and Deere.

One can find current golf news at a website called Golf Channel. Other websites that one can find current golf news on include ESPN and another website called PGA.

The PGA was founded in 1916 in New York. Since its inception, the PGA has grown into the largest sports organization in the world, with more than 23,000 men and women golf professionals.

Yes, just make sure once you put it on you wet it with plenty of solvent, inside the grip and on the grip tape.

There are primarily 3 types of wedges, Pitching, Sand and Lob. A Pitching wedge has about 46-48 degrees of loft, a Sand wedge has about 54-56 degrees of loft and a lob wedge has about 58- even 64 degrees. Depending on player preference they can have low or high bounce which can assist getting out of the sand and help when playing certain types of course, if you have a low bounce club on soggy turf you may go under the ball easier, not getting proper contact. There are also gap wedges which are designed to fit between the Pitching and Sand wedge, at about 50 or 52 degrees.

It forces things to be apart and most wedges have a pointy tip to force things to be apart. For example: You use a knife to chop off half of a cucumber. you see how strong the knife is to seperate the cucumber. Now you see how essential a wedge is to somethings. I just showed you another example of how it works and also you learned that a knife can also be a wedge.

The best ball to use with forged irons are highly quality premium balls. Such as Taylormade TP and Penta TP, Callaway iX, Srixon Z star, Titleist Pro V 1 and Pro V 1 x, and Nike One Tour. You don't have to use one of these balls, but as the irons are so soft, using a softer ball enhances feel.

The main purpose of golf club head covers is to protect the golf club. Head covers are available in many designs and themes to suit every golfer's need.

A 6 foot player would be able to play with standard length clubs with ease, however, it depends how you stand at the ball and how low/high you have your hands. You should get custom fit to make sure, you may need an inch or so longer.

from the about.com web site (http://golf.about.com/b/2008/01/12/new-cut-rule-victimizes-18-golfers-at-sony-open.htm)

brent kelley explains it this way...

So here's how the new cut rule works: * Low-70 plus ties is still the cutline. If 78 or fewer golfers make the cut, then everything continues as in the past. * However, if 79 or more golfers make the cut, the PGA Tour eliminates additional golfers by going one stroke back from the cutline. If the cutline is 4-over and 83 golfers make the cut, the Tour goes back to 3-over, eliminating golfers at that score. * Those golfers who are eliminated in this extra step are credited with making the cut, but do not continue to the weekend rounds. Since they are credited with a made cut, however, they do get their share of the purse and FedEx Cup points. But there is an exception: If the second reduction takes place and results in a field that is farther away from 70 than the full number of golfers who made the cut, the original number stands. For example, 80 golfers make the cut based on the low-70s plus ties formula. The Tour eliminates all the players one stroke below the cutline, which results in 59 golfers remaining. Fifty-nine is farther from 70 than 80 is, so the original 80 continue to the weekend.

Putters have a small amount of loft, this is so the ball can roll well. But you don't want too much loft, a Scotty Cameron Studio Select has 4 degrees and this would probably be the most. Putters would generally have between 2-4 degrees.

Young children should really use graphite shafts, they help them get the ball in the air easier and they are a lot lighter than the steel ones. Any clubs I have seen designed specifically for children have graphite shafts. When they get a bit older and stronger say 13-14 they may be able to move on to steel, because their swing speed will have increased and they are a lot stronger. Girls however tend to stay with graphite as they have slower swing speeds and the graphite shafts help get the ball in the air.

There would not be a record for this as such. It could be anything. Around 46 points would be the limit before that person is called a bandit, but I'm sure there has been people shooting 50+ points.

In fact in the quiet hills of Surrey, one legendary society -- notorious for their kitschy attire -- recently posted scores that counter arguments that shooting a 50+ score involves banditry behavior. Event winners Massie-Taylor and Townley, with day scores of 48 (fourball/better ball) and a staggering 48 (foursomes), were duly crowned the inaugural winners of the Collingwood trophy. Event organizer Bill Brass later commented "the course was ripe for a belter of a round today; I didn't expect two though. Hats off to the lads, shooting two 12 under rounds will take some beating".

For more information on shooting 48 stableford points, please search under bandits, incorrect handicap, professional golf tutors, remote-control golf-balls and acts of god.

My friend actually has one of these and I knocked the ball off the tee just to see how easy it was... it was deadly. I spent hours and hours trying to get it back on. What I was tried to give the ball a bit of spin so that it would stick. Bring the globe towards you, then roll the wrists to flick it away from you and gently bring the globe towards you again, but ever so slightly. It will work in this way although it does take a while.

There are three main styles when it comes to golf irons. The first and probably the most common among amateur golfers is a cavity back. This club has a significant indentation on the backside of the club. These irons will be the most forgiving of the three main types and will give the most consistent feedback. I would recommend these irons for anyone with a handicap above a 10 as they are a great starting club. Adams golf club is possibly making the best cavity back irons right now. They come in two types, game improvement and super game improvement both of which are good for the beginning golfer.

The next major type is what many companies call a half-cav, or a half cavity back. These irons will have less of an indentation on the back and are slightly less forgiving. These irons will allow the player to shape shots significantly more than the full cavity back and are made for players in the 0-10 handicap range. Many tour pros play these irons and absolutely love them.

The final type is a blade iron. These will have no indentation in the back and would qualify as very unforgiving. These irons will react very poorly to any shot that is not hit on the sweet spot. These irons will definitely allow the player to shape shots to their heart's desire. These are the only irons that will truly allow the player to hit massive hooks or slices that aren't possible with the full or half cavity irons. Some of the tour pros are playing these irons but many of them have moved away from these irons in recent years because the half-cavs have made significant improvements. I personally would not recommend playing blade irons unless you average under par. I did play blades for awhile and I am a low single digit handicap and absolutely hated them. They are very difficult to be consistent with but if you are a very good player then you can handle them.

A golf ball is usually white in colour and it has 300-450 dimples on it which make it aerodynamic and allow it to fly. It also the manufacturers logo on the front, with a number underneath it for identification purposes. On the size it also has the type of ball, this is often used to line the ball up with the hole, sometimes people draw a line over this for better allignment.

In Matchplay you are allowed to practice after a completed hole, only your short game, this includes pitching and putting, but bunker shots or shots from hazards are not allowed. You can practice like this as long as it does not cause an undue delay to play. You are not allowed to practice fuller swing shots.

Matchplay differs from strokeplay in one unique way. Before a matchplay round you are allowed to practice on the course, in strokeplay this is not allowed. So, before a matchplay you can play a couple of holes, or pitch and putt to any green, if you did so in strokeplay you would be disqualified.

well there are many different types of golf balls some are expensive and some of them are dirt cheap. the different brands of golf balls is hard to know because some are being used which you havent heard of. i say though on the PGA tour around about 10-15 different brands of balls are used. Examples, Nike, Callaway, Bridgestone, Srixon, Titliest, Top Flite not (flight) and many other brands of golf balls are being used which i probably don't know about.

His 2010 PGA Tour average is 300.1 Yards, but that only takes in a couple of holes per round. He has hit some drives that are easily 350 this year.

On the 2nd hole at US Open at Pebble Beach 2010 (6/20/10) Mickelson's drive was 395 yards.

That's a matter of opinion really i believe that LEE WESTWOOD will show up strong though
