Free Golf Games

[Lamar Hepburn]

Golf is a supposedly elite game that is popular internationally. There
are big world championships for professional golf, though most people
play it at an amateur level as a hobby. Golf is a very interesting
game that involves a lot of skill and adherence to many rules and
regulations. The rules of golf are determined by the Royal and Ancient
Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A), and the United States Golf
Association (USGA).
The basic concept of golf is to hit a ball with a club until it
reaches the cup, and use the minimum number of strokes to do it. There
are different kinds of strokes or shots: tee shots, fairway shots,
bunker shots and putts. There are also approach shots: pitch, flop and
chip. There is also scoring for golf. Amateur golfers are scored on
the basis of their handicap. The main equipment required for golf
includes: the golf ball, golf clubs, and special equipment like golf
carts, bags, shoes, gloves and tees.
Today, you no longer have to go to a golf course to play golf. There
are virtual versions of golf available that allow the player to play
golf in their own home. Some of these games can be downloaded from the
internet for free. They are just as exciting as the real game and have
several attractive options to make play even more exciting.
Furthermore, the player can also customize the various options. They
also have different levels of the game, including professional and
amateur. They can be played by one to four players. Most free games
are very basic games.
Some of the best free online golf games are: NabiscoWorld / Candystand
