Golf is, indeed, difficult. To hit a golf ball flawlessly every time, you must repeatedly coordinate various muscle groups and portions of your body in an almost robotic method for four hours or more over continuously altering terrain while under mental duress. It's a sport for the determined. Golf is played with a club and a ball. The object is to have the ball reach the hole in as few strokes as possible. There are several holes on which the player can choose to either use a driver or a putter. A driver is used to drive the ball long distances across open country; a putter is used when putting on grass or at least flat ground. The golfer should always address the ball directly with the feet (unless told otherwise by his/her partner). Golf is played throughout the world, but it is most popular in the United States and Canada. Golfers usually play in leagues or teams, although some individuals play by themselves. There are many clubs and companies that sell goods related to golf; among others, products such as clothing, equipment, and entertainment options. In fact, golf was originally developed as a form of exercise for wealthy landowners who did not have access to good land for farming. They hired professionals to play on their land during weekdays, and they would play themselves on the weekend.
