Scoring
Scoring a game of golf is really easy. Every course you play has a card. There are 18 holes you play. Every time you hit the ball that is a stroke. At the end of each hole you add up your strokes for each hole and write it down. There are two rules you have to learn while playing golf is that there is a match play and stroke play. In match play, you don’t have to write anything down. The only thing that matters is your game between you and your opponent. Every hole is separate, so your next whole you start completely fresh. As for a stroke play this is a little different. You have your opponent's card, and they have yours. It is a card and pencil game. You start counting your strokes until you hit it in the hole. For instances, say if it takes you 5 strokes your opponent will right it down on your card.
Here some ideas that can help you: Unlike other sports, the person with the lowest stroke wins. It is just that simple!
