The white, dimpled golf balls of today bear little resemblance to those of yesteryear. Before the arrival of rubber, golfers played with a "feathery ball", a fragile leather pouch filled with boiled goose feathers.

The best golf balls for spin are essentially any of the premium golf balls on the market. These would include the Titleist pro v 1 and Taylormade TP etc. Some balls claim to be spin but some of the time they are not great for spin. If you have clean grooves and hit a clean compressed strike on the golf ball you will be get it to spin easily.

Prov1 balls are good but Callaway Tour i and tour ix spin slightly more than prov1s the down side to this is the cover shreds very quickley

For one hole? A birdie. For a round? One under.

there are actually shoes that are called spikes. sportsmen wear spikes because when they are running the spikes underneath grip the ground so your not going backwards when naturally in normal shoes your going a bit backwards when you're walking or running.

When playing golf you should have your knees bent in order to give you stability. If you have your knees straight you are robbing yourself of distance and stability. The flexed knees give you a firm base. Without flexed legs you would get blown over in the wind.

Generally speaking, drivers are hit for long shots off the tee. While depending on the yardage most people will hit a 3 wood , 5 wood or hybrid when in the fairway far enough away from the hole that they cant reach it.

Expensive golf balls are nicer to hit, the feel softer and give more feel when you are putting and pitching. A major difference is they spin more so you can hold the green on approach and pitch shots, so this will improve your game. Cheaper golf balls are usually of poorer quality and feel quite hard when hit, they hardly spin at all and give you know feel at all when pitching and putting.

You can have 2 balls if you are a normal human, but some people have only 1 due to an accident or they were born that way. :P

No, you can only use a tee for a tee shot, which is a shot which is taken from the designated teeing area. The teeing area is defined by the two tee markers. You can not use a tee anywhere but the teeing area. If you do you are deemed to have improved your lie, which carries a two shot penalty.
