            WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

One of the most popular games in the world, golf has it's roots in Scotland in the Middle Ages. Golf is one of the few sports that has a large following in almost every country. The game attracts huge numbers of players because it can be played by people of all ages and skill levels without too much difficulty.

​

The object of the game is to put a ball into a hole by hitting it with a club in as FEW strokes as possible. Although this sounds very simple it is in fact a very challenging game, one that people spend years trying to master.

​

One of the unique features of golf is the course that it is played on. Golf courses normally have 9 or 18 holes but other than that courses vary in length, shapes, and hazards that you ahve to hit the ball around. 

THE SHORT GAME MOVIE
