Golf has seen an incredible rise in popularity over the past few
decades, and that popularity continues to grow. From the days when
golf was consider the pastime of a select few old folks who walked the
greens in their checked pants, the sport today has a tremendous
following. It can largely be attributed to players like Tiger Woods –
charismatic players who captured the attention of everyone, including
those who have never picked up a golf club. Added to this is
Hollywood’s take with movies that have portrayed golfers as the
heroes they are.
There is another historical fact that Scottish Baron, James VI, was the
man who delivered the game we know today as golf to the English. For
many years the game was played on severely rugged terrain, where
no proper upkeep was required. In most accounts golf was played with
crudely cut holes in the ground where the earth was reasonably flat.

informal. But remember that the most important thing to improve your
