Learning
the rules and language of golf is crucial. It separates the obvious beginners from someone
just having another bad day. Therefore, we have compiled a few lessons, from
experience, that may help other novices.
If the instructor
tells you to address the ball, do not take out a pen and write "to green" on the
ball.
Try not to stand on asphalt in the
summer while wearing golf shoes, unless you are with a very strong friend.
The easiest way to find a lost golf
ball is to ask the guy limping in the next fairway.
Never insist that your spouse play
golf. It can lead to only two results. One, she/he plays really badly, complains for four
hours and ruins your whole day. Or, he/she plays really well, offers four hours of
suggestions on how you might do better and ruins your whole day.
A double bogey is not a strong
drink from the movie Casablanca. It means two over par. And not a bad score at all. If
they have a name for it it's a good score. There is no name for a fifteen.
A chip is not something left behind
by a foraging cow. That's a flap. A chip is a carefully choreographed half-swing that
often goes further than your original drive.
A divot is a lump of grass that
flies up from where the golf ball used to be. A damnit is a lump of grass that flies up in
your face as you hit two feet behind the ball.
A slice is a ball that curves to
the right. A bad slice is a ball that lands behind you.
A tough lie has double meanings.
It's when you have to come up with an excuse - for the umpteenth time - as to why it took
six hours to play nine holes and why your breath smells like nacho chips and beer. It also
refers to a difficult spot to have to hit your ball from. For instance, the base of a
tree, the crook of a tree or the upper branches of a tree.
Heavy rough is the area along the
edge of the fairway just before your ball is legally out of bounds. A good rule of thumb -
if the guy beside you is barbecuing, you're probably out of bounds.
And finally, Club Rules imply that
you are not penalized by foreign objects on the fairway. Therefore, if you knock out a
tourist with your drive, you are allowed to move your ball one club's length from the
body.

"...a very beautful and unique course. It has a very hilly layout with short and long
holes... offers all that play a challenge of all phases of the game. You must be able to
hit uneven lies on every hole and lots of trouble on the left and right with many trees.
Not much sand play but all greens are elevated to some extent.. If you master this course,
you will be able to play any courses with out any trouble... Nice layout and good
rates." -golfreview.com

"This public course is the best value for the dollar in Memphis...This course is carved out of a hilly forest, so you'll have a lot of
downhill, uphill and side hill lies. Almost every hole is thickly tree-lined on both
sides...play in the fairway - or bring plenty of golf balls...The fairways are probably
the best of any of the municipal courses, but the greens are usually among the
slowest." joecartpath
