What is Golf?
Golf is a precision
club and ball sport, in which competing players (or golfers) use many types of
clubs to hit balls into a series of holes on a golf course using the fewest
number of strokes. Golf is defined, in the rules of golf, as "playing a
ball with a club from the teeing ground into the hole by a stroke or successive
strokes in accordance with the Rules."

It is one of the few
ball games that does not require a standardized playing area. Instead, the game
is played on a "course", generally consisting of an arranged
progression of either 9 or 18 "holes". Each hole on the course must
contain a "tee box" and a "putting green" with the actual
hole, and there are various other standardized forms of terrain in between such
as the fairway, rough, and hazards, but each hole on a course and indeed among
virtually all courses is unique in its specific layout and arrangement.

Golfing can be one of the best spots and most frustrating!
My sister and I fortunate to each have sons who are
professional golfers. Her son, Randy
travel’s the PGA tour selling golf equipment and my son Warren teaches golf and
helps run a Pro shop in Seattle. Pretty
cool! She spent years helping young golfers through Junior Golf.

and enjoy memories and outings and something the entire family can do for
years. So go ahead, take a vacation to one of the many family friendly golf resorts and have a blast!
