Golf

Golf balls are not talked of in terms of being forgiving. If you are a higher handicap player you would probably want a distance ball, but if you have a high swing speed you should get a spin ball. Try a few and see what works for.

Not necessarily.

While membership at a private golf club or "country club" can cost in excess of $10,000 per year, there are many "public" courses available where memberships are not required. Additionally, memberships at smaller, public clubs can be $2,000 down to only a few hundred dollars-but membership at public clubs is not a requirement to play the course.

Some popular courses that host PGA TOUR events are public-such as the TPC at Sawgrass, which hosts The Players Championship (although these courses are fairly expensive to play).

Public courses can range in price from $15 per round to over $200 per round.

Equipment is typically the largest single expense, as a top line set of clubs can cost thousands of dollars. However, starter sets or used sets can cost $100 or less.

Additionally, there are some courses that offer "rental" sets, although these clubs are typically of older design and low quality.

Still, golf can be enjoyable even for people of limited means. You don't have to buy $2,500 Ping clubs and Titleist golf balls at $45 per dozen.

You can find clubs for $100 and a dozen balls for $10.

The PGA Tour bans any kind of device that can measure the yardage or wind or anything in that nature. The only time that a player/caddie can use such a device would be during a Pro/Am or other event that does not earn them money directly and the PGA Tour as authorized it which is almost never. If someone is caught using one of these devices they will be disqualified.

Note: Jerry Rice was in a Nationwide Tour event and was disqualified after his caddie used a range finder to find a yardage.

There is no guideline price as such for something like this. You could try eBay or a sports memoribilia auction to gauge how much it could go for. It will clearly be quite a desirable item.

Pace of play is how quickly a round of golf is played, usually by one player, or a group.

this grip reminds one of holding a bat

You must have a loose, damaged, or touching wire either on the battery or on the switch that switches between forward and reverse.

Simply warm soapy water! Work from the club head end up to the butt of the grip, use a cloth just to clean the build up away and then use a clean towel to dry it, working from the bottom up.

If you mean the Barclay brand of cigarettes then it will be a hard find as that brand is no linger being supported via marketing funds. You may want to try the Company Website: http:/www.rjrt.com/contactus.aspx

Lee Janzen had eight career PGA TOUR victories, two of which were majors. Both major wins were US Open Championship victories, the first in 1993, beating Payne Stuart by two strokes on the Lower Course at Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey.

Janzen won the US Open again in 1998 at the Olympic Club in San Francisco, California on the Lake Course.

Different shafts are made for different people. It is important that you get one that is made for your swing. Your swing speed determines your shaft. The faster you swing, the stiffer shaft you need. There are also things like torque which is the shafts ability to resist twisting. The faster you swing, the more torque you are going to have. For more detail on this go to the link below.

There is no specific time (per se). In the gentleman's game, under the rules, you have five minutes to locate and identify your ball (after teeing off). Failure to do so incurs a penalty for lost ball which is stroke and distance. Therefore, you may have to return to the tee (more than once) if you keep losing golf balls. HOWEVER, stroke play is usually reserved for better golfers (and pros), where a lost ball and its required search is the exception rather than the rule. In amateur play, most games are "match play", and a gentleman would pick up and concede the loss of hole rather than subject everyone to repeated searches.

Now, having set the example, please understand that at your local muni course, unless you are playing in a match (which should require you to have established a handicap), all other golf rounds are considered "practice" and therefore outside the purview of the rules.

If you tried to use the "five minute" rule for several shots, you might be "mob attacked" by following golfers that you are delaying. It's prudent to take a drop in the vicinity that you feel your ball ended up.

At public courses, you have a responsibility to the course and to other golfers, OVER AND ABOVE the rules, especially if you are not playing a match.

Tournaments (outings) often have special rules like making one pick up for double par on a hole that they exceeded the maximum (par x 2) strokes. All of this is keep one from taking too long to play!

So common sense dictates that 15 minutes per hole (per foursome) would be fair and complete your round in 4 1/2 hours - that is the general course guideline for munis.

A tee time is the time designated to a group of players of when they should hit their opening tee shot. In some competitions if you miss this, you will be disqualified. It is often not too closely patrolled at many Golf Clubs but where there is a starter they may be quite strict.

Dimples first became a feature and patented by a certain Taylor.

Lead tape is perfectly legal, as long as it is on the club when you begin the round, and when you finish. If you took it off during the round or added it during the round you would be changing the playing characteristics of the club which is against the rules.

Usually a marker in the fairway, these vary from course to course. A common one is a white marker which is usually 150 yards to the centre of the green. There are sometimes 100 and 200 yard markers.

A backhand throw is technically the standard throw in Disc Golf however many people choose side-arm as well as it is easier to learn in the beginning.

A backhand throw is the way you would typically throw a regular frisbee. If you are right handed, one or two fingers curls under the rim of the disc with your thumb on top. There are many varying techniques and methods to this throw. Your best bet is to google some videos and refer to some good disc golfing sites.

A 'chip shot' is a small shot usually played if the ball has landed on the fringe of the green. On most occasions, they are used to get the ball closer to the hole from the fringe or rough surrounding the green. Depending on the situation, golfers may choose to hit a chip shot high or low.

The highest par in golf is 5. A seven is a double bogey on a par 5 and a triple bogey on a par four and a quadruple bogey on a par 3.
