    Golf as a sport

    by stagbucarpruspe » Tue Jun 16, 2020 1:11 pm

    I've always wondered if golf is considered a sport or just a hobby?

    Golf is a good sport because it is a physical activity that also requires mental and emotional discipline. It is a competition on several levels simultaneously. You compete against yourself and your previous personal best. You compete against the course itself with par being the judge. Imagine being on a golf course in the early morning. You are with three of your best friends and are dressed for the comfortable 60-degree weather. Your group is the first out on the course so, with each step, you disrupt the perfect layer of dew that covers the grass. As your golf ball rolls, its path is clearly defined by the track it cleared of dew. For the next 4 hours your friends and you will have interesting conversations, maybe make the game more intense by placing side bets, and witness nature warming up for the day. You will also hit a round white ball roughly 65–130+ times (It’s a lot more fun when you’re closer to the 65!). If your lucky a couple of these shots may be struck so perfectly that you immediately see your path to the PGA flash before your eyes. As you approach your next shot you have already begun giving your friends swing tips and are walking with the swagger of Rory McIlroy’s. Then…..SHANK. That’s golf: patience, practice, good shots, good friends, bad shots, angry friends, shenanigans, peace, satisfaction. Once you cleanly strike a golf ball set in the fairway and place it within 10 feet of the pin, YOU WILL BE HOOKED. If you love golf as I do check windtreegolf.com.

    Personally for me Golf is not only a sport or a goal to achieve some result but it is also part of my favorite business which I like the most. In fact, Golf is a fairly relevant sport today because it involves social distance, and so a good Golf cart from https://us.mgigolf.com is necessary to make it easier to move around the field without bumping into anyone or catching any virus. Of course, you can make a joke out of all this, but the fact remains, so it's worth thinking about. What do you think of this?

    Golf is a pointless game that takes too much land
