I. Golf

The choice of golf balls is relatively easy for experienced players, but it is really a headache for beginners. At present, golf is mainly divided into the following four categories:

1, rotary

Designed for multiple rotations. This kind of ball usually has a three-layer structure. The central core (the liquid in the fastest spinning ball) is surrounded by rubber bands and is usually covered by a thin soft material called balata. These balls spin fast, turn left or right easily, and have good grip on the green. They feel soft, but they don't run as far as the long ball. These balls are cheap and durable. The cover is usually sand shower (a durable synthetic material) or sand shower mixture, usually two layers instead of three.

2. Distance type

Made of a harder and more durable covering, the core is solid and usually has two layers. The inner side of the distance ball is solid synthetic material. The surface layer and core of this kind of ball are firmly mixed together, so it can run longer distances and is very durable. However, these balls don't spin well. Poor rotation indicates poor control and stopping ability in some cases. Compared with the balls with winding structure, these balls have higher hand hardness.

3. Rubber tree

Feel very soft, usually combined with winding structure to achieve the final combination of soft feel and good control. Poor durability, not suitable for beginners.

4. Sand showers

It is a hard and difficult-to-cut covering, which has poor hand feeling but good durability. It can make the ball fly a longer distance, but it has poor maneuverability and is suitable for beginners.

Most beginners will try to cover the ball with good durability, so that even if it is hit by mistake, it will not destroy the roundness and flight characteristics of the ball. Senior players generally don't use a double ball to cover the sand shower because it feels bad. However, beginners are advised to try several different types of suitable balls and always find the most suitable one. Of course, if you go out to play ball, it is generally recommended to bring more, because it is inevitable that you will encounter rivers and Woods and easily lose the ball.

Second, jerseys

Say? Golf is an aristocratic sport? It's true. Besides all kinds of expensive professional equipment, dress etiquette is also very particular about it. This is also one of the characteristics that distinguish it from other sports. In addition to professional golf courses, general membership clubs usually require players to wear sleeveless shirts, and players are not allowed to wear too casual clothes such as T-shirts, suspenders, jeans, miniskirts and shorts.

1. When you wear a sweatshirt, the sleeve length should be three-quarters of the length from shoulder to elbow. If you have a good figure, your sleeves can be even higher. It should be noted that if you can't even see your elbows, the sleeves are too long.

2. When you put the round neck sweater on the outside of the sweatshirt, you should put the collar of the shirt inside, so it looks neat.

3. Legs of long ball pants should touch the toe of your shoes. If you wear shorts, your pants should be above your knees.

It is worth mentioning that some clubs also stipulate that you are not allowed to wear any style of shorts, and there are also regulations on the style and length of shorts, such as not being shorter than 4 inches above the knee, so cotton casual pants are always the best choice.

Third, the club

Generally speaking, when going out to play golf, it is best to bring a set of clubs in case of emergency. A set of clubs has 14, including 3 sticks, 10 iron, 1 putter. Wooden poles are mostly made of persimmon, which is mostly used in service areas. The iron rod is made of soft iron, which is slightly thinner and smaller than the wooden rod. They are mainly used to control short-range strikes. Iron irons can be roughly divided into three categories: long iron irons are easy to master directionality, medium iron irons are easy to swing, easy to use and suitable for beginners. Short irons are suitable for hitting the ball in difficult positions.

The same kind of clubs can be divided into different numbers according to their length and the angle of the inclined plane of the club holder. In golf, the hitting distance and height are mainly controlled by using clubs with different lengths. The more clubs there are, the shorter the clubs are and the greater the angle between the club head and the ground. The smaller the number, the longer the club, and the higher and farther the ball is played. Generally speaking, beginners begin to use No.7 iron, and then use other clubs after the basic movements are correctly shaped.

If your golf skills are superb and close to the level of professional players, then the clubs you choose are definitely different from those used by amateurs. Professional clubs have relatively small face, low center of gravity, easy pilling, and heavy shaft, so the hitting speed is faster and more stable. In addition, the club is divided into different grades, from 2 stars to 5 stars. The higher the star rating, the greater the density of materials and the different facial decorations. It is understood that the face of some high-star clubs is gold-plated or golden, so the price will be 2~3 times more expensive than ordinary clubs.

Fourth, the ball bag

As we all know, golf is a demanding sport, so we need more equipment. When you go out to play ball, sometimes you need to change the means of transportation by sea, land and air, and the road will inevitably be bumpy, so it is best to prepare professional equipment in advance and protect your beloved golf equipment during the trip.

1, golf bag

Golf bags are mostly made of leather, and the caliber is about 30~40 cm. A good golf bag should have the characteristics of stable putting, smooth texture and solid overall skeleton. When choosing to buy, be sure to ensure the firmness and stability of the golf bag. Generally speaking, the ball bag weighs 3~5 kilograms, and the bag used by women is smaller than that used by men, so it will be slightly lighter.

2. Professional plaid bag

If you want to go out to play golf, you must check your golf bag as luggage. At this time, you'd better buy another special consignment bag for travel. Travel special consignment bag can completely put ordinary golf clubs into it and be wrapped and fixed by two thick sponge pads. There are many soft sponge pads on the inner layer of the consignment bag, which can prevent delicate golf clubs from colliding on the plane and firmly protect the safety of golf clubs.

3. Hand-held travel bag

Many professional golfers take a special portable golf bag when they go out to play. The setting of this kind of travelling bag is very exquisite, and it is generally divided into two layers. The upper layer is used to hold clothes and gloves for playing ball, and the lower layer is designed in a thin box shape. The zipper ring is opened, just enough to put a pair of golf shoes in.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) spherical cap

Golf often needs to be exposed to the sun for a long time Although there is no hard and fast rule that golfers must wear hats, it is necessary to wear a comfortable and high-quality golf cap when the sun is very hot.

First of all, the ball cap can prevent the direct damage of ultraviolet rays to the skin and the influence of too strong sunlight on the line of sight of playing. Therefore, when we choose a golf cap, the brim of the cap can be as large as possible, which can block the direct sunlight on the skin as much as possible, and it is best to choose a material that can really resist ultraviolet rays. Secondly, an extra golf cap can also add extra points to your dress and add elegance. Why not?

Six, gloves

Golf gloves are used to prevent hand sweat from touching the club, and hand control of the club is not good. Therefore, we should try to choose golf gloves with good air permeability and sweat absorption, but most golfers only choose to bring one (left hand).

Golf gloves are generally made of cowhide, sheepskin gloves are a little more advanced and expensive, and artificial leather gloves are a little cheaper. Novice men can wear one left glove and women can wear two, because novices can easily hurt their hands. Wearing gloves can avoid hitting mistakes caused by the vibration of the club rubbing the palm when hitting the ball, so it is recommended to choose gloves with soft texture and good feel. If you go out to play golf, you'd better bring more gloves to prevent the old gloves from being worn out. Although you can buy new gloves temporarily, you still need to adapt to the process, which will affect your improvisation.
