How to Start Playing and Enjoy the Game

Starting golf can feel overwhelming — so many clubs, rules, and techniques! But don’t worry: every pro was once a beginner. This quick guide is designed to help you take your first confident steps on the course

1. Start with the Right Clubs

You don’t need a full 14-club set to begin. For beginners, a basic set that includes:

• 1 Driver

• 1 or 2 Irons (like a 7 and 9)

• 1 Wedge

• 1 Putter

is more than enough. Look for beginner-friendly models that are forgiving and easy to hit — we can help you with that in store or with a custom fitting.

2. Learn the Basic Rules & Etiquette

Golf is not just about the swing — it’s also about respect for the game and other players.

Here are a few basics:

• Be quiet when others are swinging.

• Keep pace with the group ahead.

• Repair your divots and ball marks.

• Never walk in someone’s putting line.

 3. Take Lessons Early

Even just 1–2 lessons with a PGA coach or TrackMan session can save you months of frustration. Learn the correct grip, stance, and swing foundation from the start — don’t build bad habits!

 4. Focus on Short Game First

Many beginners go straight to the driver — but 70% of golf strokes happen within 100 meters. Practice putting, chipping, and pitching regularly. Mastering this will drastically improve your score and enjoyment.

 5. Play 9 Holes — and Don’t Keep Score (Yet)

Skip the pressure. Just enjoy the walk, the scenery, and the learning process. Golf is a game for life — take it slow and celebrate the small wins, like a clean shot or a long putt.

 Final Tip: Have Fun!

Golf is as much about friends and fresh air as it is about birdies and bogeys. Keep a positive attitude and you’ll keep improving every round. See you on the course!
