Golf A Sport for Rich People

Golf is increasingly popular and playing golf has become much more accessible, as well as the equipment necessary to practice it.

Play golf with the right golf clubs

 

The clubs are the main pieces of equipment in golf as they help you to adapt to different situations on the fairway. There are three types of clubs for three broad categories of strokes. The long shots require wood clubs numbered 1 to 9. The higher the number, the stronger is the stroke. High shots require iron clubs numbered 10 (pitching wedge) and 11 (sand wedge). These are used mainly to get out of the bunker or for shots to the green. Finally, the putter is a unique golf club set used on the green for the final stroke toward the hole. Be aware that a golfer can use all their golf clubs during a game. Golf reveals itself as a truly strategic game because the player can select a maximum of 14 clubs depending on the physiognomy of the course and the way of playing. As a beginner, you can buy a basic golf pack that costs about 300 USD and includes four irons and woods and a putter. Each of your clubs is numbered. You can also rent junior golf equipment on the site but it would be better to buy your own clubs if you are not a very good golfer.

Clothing and golf accessories are very important

 

There are various other accessories you need to play golf apart from the golf bag. First of all, you need several clubs to succeed different shots throughout the course and, of course, you need a bag to carry all these clubs. You can always rent a cart in order not to carry your equipment around walking as the course is about 6,000 m-7,000 m long. You can also choose an electric cart, in which case your efforts are concentrated in the beatings. Golf is a game of patience. Usually, the 18-hole course requires many hours of play. The bag is intended not only for the carrying of the clubs, but also for the storage of objects the player usually needs to be comfortable - bottled water, light food, warm clothing in case of windy conditions, raincoats and umbrellas for bad weather, etc. - and that of necessary accessories such as balls, the tee or the divot.

Golf is also about image

 

Finally, golf has its dress code and an image of prestige to defend despite its extension. There may be no strict golf attire, but there are still certain aspects related to clothing golfers should pay attention to before stepping on the tee. The typical golfer is dressed in a polo shirt with a V-neck vest and simple sport pants because they are comfortable and the risk of being too cold or too hot is very low. The golfer must also invest in shoes because they may affect the stroke and even damage the golf course. The so-called "soft spike shoes" are recommended. Finally, you should not forget about the glove. The right-handed should wear the glove on the left hand, while the left-handed should wear it on the right one.

Golf is an outdoor sport, but technological advances offer people the opportunity to play golf in the city, inside cabins with a surface of just 30 square meters with a giant touch screen that allows for lifelike simulation. The game is played in 3D mode, so you hit real balls with your real clubs. If you live in the United States of America, you can try your swing on an indoor golf course. This is perfect for practice before playing on a traditional golf course.

Finally, you must also purchase a license each season in order to be allowed to play golf even as an amateur (apart from the accessories). Now you are ready to test the course.
