People tend to argue, but even despite all of the arguments they have, one thing stand for sure, and that would be the fact that no one can say for sure where do the game of golf stem from. Was it China with it´s game of chuiwan that gave someone idea to develop golf, or were it the old Dutchmen playing kolven? Actually, we might be wrong and instead we should blame Englishmen themselves who liked to spend their spare time playing cambuca as French liked there chambot. No one can say for sure. Except if he is to say that the most striking resemblance lies between modern golf and the game of golf played in the 15th century Scotland, under the rule of king James II.

Now, let´s see for all of you out there interested in this game, what are some of the most essential topic to cover and learn before we go out and embarrass ourselves.

The first and foremost is to cover the topic of the golf equipment. And before we start to list it and describe it, we need to stress out that the golf rules, there being listed the rules related to the equipment as well, are drawn by the governing authority of this game – The Royal and Ancient Golf Club and it´s committees.

Of course that the first piece of the equipment to cross anyone´s mind, would be that cute, dimpled golf ball. The R&A rules state that a golf ball must not weigh over 45.93 grams, diameter must not be lesser than 42.67mm and it´s symmetry, velocity and distance limits must be respected.

The next on our list are the golf clubs, by rules limited to up to fourteen clubs per player, and there are three major types used for different shots: woods, irons and putters.

Then we have ball markers, the name describing their purpose along the way.

And in the end beside regular gold bag, we have tees as important golf equipment piece, which serves to players to raise the ball on it so it can be easier to shoot that way.

One would never be mistaken to call the history of golf an interesting one. How cannot it be interesting if we take as truth the assumption it originated in the ancient Greece and Rome, the cradles of our civilization, where it was known under the name paganica and consisted of pushing lather ball with a stick that looked similar to nowadays golf clubs.

The golf history next cites that the 13th century Dutchmen may actually be the guilty ones for the development of golf through their game of kolven, or maybe the guilty ones were Chinese and their game of chuiwan played circa between 8th and 14th century. Golf also bears striking resemblance to the game of cambuca played in England and chambot that originated in France. But what is known to be a modern game of golf we nowadays know is said to had originated in the 15th century Scotland and unlike nowadays, despite it´s immense popularity the Scotland court proclaimed golf a forbidden and punishment followed form of a pass time if practiced. And all of it for the sake of archery which was greatly abandoned at a time because people were preoccupied with golf. Ah, so much fuss over few clubs and one small, innocent ball.

Nowadays, not only is golf a very favorable sport, but is considered to be the sport for higher classes even, the fact King James II of Scotland would find hard to believe today. Interesting fact of our century is that the land of origin of golf, Scotland, holds even nowadays the number one place when it comes to the popularity of this game, and it is slowly closed by it´s neighboring Wales, then Northern Ireland and Canada, United States, New Zealand and Australia on another hemisphere, as well as England and very noticeably Sweden.

Never-ending discussions on golf, professional golfers and golf equipment, I don’t want to hide the fact that I am happy Tiger Woods is no longer on the top of the list of the greatest golfers.
I want the opportunity to compliment all the professional woman golfers out there especially any woman involved in an LPGA Tour.

LPGA is the initials for Ladies Professional Golf Association, I am giving women full credit for being in the association, traveling in the LPGA Tour and participating in tournaments, even when born with great talent for golf, practice and hard work is acquired.

Last but not least, if you get a chance to travel and visit Hawaii, make sure you visit everything related to the golf industry, I consider hawaiigolf the best that can be offered compared to other tee times.

One of my best memories as a kid is my parents taking me to a Mini Golf Course, although regular golf is fun it’s not much fun for kids because from their point of view everything looks so big and slow and many kids get bored.

Mini Golf is also great for adults, there are so many different courses using strategies with a maze and curves and interesting forms of objects, there are also glow in the dark courses, so if you are at home thinking that you want to do something fun and special – Go play Mini Golf, if you have kids take them along because it is an amazing experience that you will never forget.
