Find a (public) golf course near my location

Are you a golf enthusiast and do you like to play golf? Then of course you want to know which golf course is closest to you. Nowadays, young and old can find a golf course to practice this activity that not so long ago was not for everyone.

Are all the golf courses the same?

The beauty of having several golf courses nearby is that each course has a unique design. The only thing that is the same about the different golf courses is the number of holes that can be played. A complete course has 18 holes but there are also golf courses with 9 holes that must then be played twice each. For experienced golfers, terms such as Tee, Fairway and Green are well known. Beginning golfers have yet to learn that these are the tee-off point, the easiest route and the short cut around the holes of the golf club.

Is it necessary to be a member of a golf club?

Most golf courses allow you to play without having to be a member but club members often have priority in booking and reserving courses. Since you have to pay for the course each time you play without a membership, this can cost quite a bit if you play golf regularly. A membership at a nearby golf course is then worth considering. It also allows you to participate in competitions and tournaments to improve your handicap.

The most famous terms

The following terms are standard terms and should be familiar to every golfer. Par, Birdie and Eagle have to do with the number of strokes a player needs to play a hole. A player’s handicap shows how good the particular player is. Every golf course has its own par and handicap in addition to the player’s own handicap. When you hear FORE watch out, because there might be a ball coming your way.

Dress code at the golf course

Dress codes are still in effect at golf courses. Some are not as strict about it anymore but you are still expected to know what the rules are and dress accordingly. To play at your local golf course, wear slacks or Bermuda shorts and a polo shirt with a collar. Ladies can opt for a golf skirt if necessary. Golf shoes with spikes and socks are required for your comfort and safety. Most golf courses will turn you away if you think you are playing golf in your jeans or jogging suit.
