The Very Basics Curling is played on ice with (approximately) 42-pound granite stones. The size of the playing surface (a 'sheet') is 138 feet long by approximately 14 feet wide. The goal is, after all 16 stones are played (8 by each team), to have a stone of your team's closest to the center of the house, called the 'tee' (see above). This is accomplished by sending your stone to rest in scoring position (a 'draw'), by knocking your opponent's stones outof scoring position (a 'takeout'), and by

The purpose of this experiment was to test how high three different brands of golf balls would bounce from 1 m off the ground. My group thought that of the three brands of golf balls, Wilson, Tieliest, and Callaway, the Wilson golf ball would bounce back the highest. This Hypothesis was not supported because the Wilson golf ball average bounce was 76.1 cm, the Callaway golf ball bounced back an average of 76.2, and the Titleist golf ball bounce an average of 78.2. For our procedure we dropped the

One of the most important golf tips for beginners I can give initially is to learn the basics of golf. There is really no point in just turning up at your local municipal course and hacking a ball around with the vague hope that it might eventually end up in the hole. All you will end up doing is embarrassing yourself and really annoying the more experienced and knowledgeable golfers around you. You will also gain no satisfaction from the experience and will probably never try it again. The following

Many golf players love to travel from one course to another, as you can always experience something new with a different ground. There are far too many great golf courses around the world, and it is hard to come up with the best one or two just because there can be various views. For me, I am always attracted to a course which is rich in historical background, equipped with world class facilities, surrounded by breath-taking scenery, and is rising in popularity. Below, I am going to share with you

On Monday, September 14, 2015, I selected a golf course to observe, as the location was near my house, and because I’ve never been to a golf course before, so it was a fresh experience for me. The location was on a bench in Scarlett Woods Golf Course near hill # 9 from 4:40 pm to 5:40 pm, but I should have mentioned in my observation report that it was in Toronto, Ontario of Canada. While observing the golfers, I used my phone to record, as I found it weird to have a notebook and pencil out when

Golf is a game of skill. To be an avid golfer, there are so many techniques and skills to master. Even the slightest movement can change your hit from hitting it straight onto the green to slicing the ball into the trees. There are very few that are masters at this sport. In Los Angeles, California there are 10 golf courses, while in Oxford, Ohio there is only one. These amount of golf courses can correlate to many events. Spatiotemporal is relating to space and time qualities. There are several

Our town is notable for having several interesting golf courses. For those residents whose interests lie in other pursuits, those courses are a waste of large quantities of otherwise useful space that could be better used to construct another mall or store.

The golf course is
