I am sure that many people nowadays know what golf is. Golf is quite well-known worldwide these ages. According to Wikipedia.org, golf is a precision club-and-ball sport, in which competing players (golfers), using many types of clubs, attempt to hit balls into each hole on a golf course while employing the fewest number of strokes. Golf is one of the few ball games that do not require a standardized playing area. Instead, the game is played on golf “courses”, each of which features a unique design, although courses typically consist of either nine or 18 holes. Golf is defined, in the rules of golf, as “playing a ball with a club from the teeing ground into the hole by a stroke or successive strokes in accordance with the Rules.” Golf competition is generally played for the lowest number of strokes by an individual, known simply as stroke play, or the lowest score on the most individual holes during a complete round by an individual or team, known as match play.
The origin of golf is unclear and open to debate but let’s skip this part. According to its meaning, golf are played in a golf course consists of a series of holes, each with a teeing area that is set off by two markers showing the bounds of the legal tee area, fairway, rough and other hazards, and the putting green surrounded by the fringe with the pin (flagstick) and cup. In Germany, if you are sure of your skill, whether you are amateur or even professional, you are not hard to find platzreife (in English word it means handicap or contest in which contestants are given advantages or compensations to equalize the chances of winning). You can practice your skill over there.

You can search and find which kind of clubs that you want to fill into your golf bag in Golf shop. Actually there are so many type and kind of golf clubs, golf shoes and golf bag. Yet again there are so many brands and from what material that things are made. Shopping can be done through online shopping (for e.g. shopping through http://golfakademie-gmbh.de) or you can come to their golf shop. I think they will provide first-class service; best prices and perfect customer care. I almost forgot, they will also like to send their goods to foreign countries and of course you will be charged for the delivered fee. Well, I think that’s all I can share for all of you.
