Material of Golf
The practice of the Golf, like all Sport, requires the use of material of golf : club, ball, Tee, carriage, golfette, bag, etc
Clubs of golf
See also: Club (golf)
The clubs of golf are various natures. One distinguishes the Bois to allow long blows (used especially on the starting surfaces to put the ball concerned), the Fer S which authorize less long blows but much more precise and the hybrids which are a mélande of wood and iron, i.e. that they have the precision of irons and the distance from wood.
The putter is also found which, enables him to make roll the ball mainly on the Green with precision.

Ball
See also: Golf ball
In the beginning, the balls were made envelopes of leather filled with feathers, before one discovers towards 1850 formidable qualities of a Gomme of Malaysia called Gutta-perched .
Today, the golf ball, which is a core in rubber covered with an envelope of Polymère, must be in conformity with the rules of competition. Its weight should not exceed 47,62 grams (1,62 ounce) and its diameter must be 42,67 millimetres (1,68 inch). The tests of Initial Velocity and Overall Distance stipulate that the ball should not leave the face of the club to more than 78 m/s nor crossing a distance higher than 293 Mr.
The balls are of two different types of construction:
- the two parts generally have a large core of rubber covered with a very resistant synthetic material envelope (Surlyn). They generate less spin (rotation on themselves) at the time of the swing , but ensure the long distances and allow more precision in the play.
- the multipièces have a smaller core, surrounded by two or three intermediate envelopes then of a more flexible outer jacket. They allow the players experienced to exploit their capacity to generate spin so as to work their trajectory with the detriment of the distance.
The factors spin and to touch ball are the first to be taken into account in the choice of the balls. Resistance and the price follow.
Tee
The player having to type his ball on the departure the installation on peg or of figure called tee , which cannot be used apart from the departures. The utility of a tee is to raise the ball to facilitate the use of special clubs of golf (cf paragraph on the wood ) and to limit the degradation of the grass. This term indicates also the surface starting.
Carriage, golfette and bag
A player transports his series in a bag of golf often carried by a carriage, which can be electric. The unit is called junior , by allusion to the carrier of the bags of the large players during their tournament (in English, caddie ). The Caddie nominates also the person who operates the carriage or carries the bag of the player, it also advises the player to evaluate the club to use and analyze the slopes on the greens. One can still mention that certain players use carriers of golf, also called Golfette S, to move on the course. They generally comprise two places and make it possible to lay out two bags with the back. Some comprise four places.
