If you know people, who conduct business in the golf course, then may be you want the experience as well. This guide on how to play golf will help you in understanding the intricacies of this game. I may need to mention that this game is unlike any other game; in here, what you need is strategy rather than power.

Why do I say this? This is because the common mistake of golf beginners is by giving all their might in trying to hit the ball. This is not the proper way to play golf and I am hoping that this article will help you learn how to get started and hopefully learn the tricks to make sure that you will not only enjoy this game but rather be successful in your business while playing.

Of course, you know that you will need a golf club. However, you will need many types of golf clubs. What are they?

  • Putter
  • Wood
  • Iron
  • Wedge
  • Driver

All these golf clubs differ in characteristics and while playing a single game, you may need all of them.

Additionally, you will need to be comfortable with your golf club; this is to ensure that you will be able to swing the ball easily.

One important thing however, you do not need to spend hugely on a new and branded golf club. The reason is that each golf club has its own weight, function and if you buy a golf club that does not fit your competency, you may play poorly and your money spent on the golf club will be useless.

My advice for you is to try renting golf club for your first few visits to the golf course, when you finally found the right golf club for you, then you may venture into buying your golf club. I may say again that the price of the golf club will not speak for your game play, thus, choose your golf club wisely.

By the way, the subject of our article is how to play golf, so let us move on.

We have discussed the golf club already, so the next steps now.

  • Learn the swing
