I will look for the distance first , if it is 150 yards from the hole I will use 7 or 8 iron . If the wind is blowing towards me I will use 7 iron , If the wind is blowing towards the green I will use 8 iron . Also, if you are facing a short Par 4 (about 280 yards) you can use driver to hit the ball straight to the hole, but becareful, if your driving technique is not good( always slice) then, I will suggest you to use 3 wood then use a sand wedge to chip the ball to the green and putt for birdie . By the way , if you want to test wheather the wind is blowing towards the hole or towards you , you just need to pick up some grass from the fairway or rough , and see how the grass moves in direction, if the grass goes towards you, it means that the wind is blowing towards you, if the grass goes towards the hole, it means that the wind is blowing to the hole, so try this method and give me 10 marks for the best answer .

how high do you want it?\n\nthe cheapest is frost fencing.  don't buy the shit from the hardware store but order from a real fence company.  just dig the holes, plant the posts wtih a level, and then stretch the wire over it.  shouldn't be more than a two man job maybe rent a bobcat to come and drill your holes for a big field.

depends where in world u r. here most now that are built are sand based greens with drainage pipes underneath for extra drainage. then a mixture of sand and topsoil. u will find u get the best greens are seeded rather than turfed. than again depends on grass strains u use. dependin on climate and water levels u get.

I am a golf pro and I have the pleasure of trying alot of equipment.\n\nTrust me when I say this, the Nike SQ 3 wood off the deck is the straightest 3 wood on the market.  Comes out a little low and HOT.  The 5 wood is only 3 degrees different if you want something higher, almost the same distance.  \n\nThose rescues are not the best off the deck, but you will find them better than a 3 wood out of the junk or a fairway bunker.\n\nLets have a game sometime at Bushwood with Doctor Beeper!

Any Hardware/lumber store ie. Home Depot or Lowes.  Ask for landscaping timbers.  most have rounded sides so they are safe.

Factors \n1.  Regular Tee Shot - New golfers or golfers who average over 95 should consider hitting a 3 wood off the tee.  They will have better control and maybe more distance.  Hit the driver on the holes it can't hurt you.  Use it on a wide open hole.  \n\n2.  When deciding what club to hit off the tee on a certain hole here are some things to consider:\n  a.  A tight short hole hit a 5 iron to the 150 yard mark.\n  b.  Long tight hole you may want to hit 3 wood.  Unless you have control over your driver only hit it when you feel good about it and it will save you a stroke.  A par 5 that you can't hit in 2.  Pick a club that you control and still hit the green in 3 shots.  A long par 4 you can't hit in 2 with a good drive, why risk it?\n\nThe funny thing is none of us like to play that way.  We want to hit driver.  We all could play a lot better if we stick will shots we can hit.  \n\nYou can find some good articles about what to use off the tee at www.pga.com improve your game section  \n  http://www.pga.com/improve/tips/techniques/improve_kirk082304.cfm\nhttp://www.pga.com/improve/tips/swing/improve_polites110104.cfm

That is a great idea.  I shoot at one regularly.  There is allot of money to be made in it.   The down side is you will need a large amount of land and the throwers are expensive for automatic throwers.  plus the little extras like golf carts for older shooters and people to go around and load the auto throwers.  plus insurance in case of accidents.

I'm sure you could find what you're looking for here:\n\nhttp://www.toro.com/customercare/commercial/index.html\n\nIf they don't have it on the site I would e-mail them and ask the most specific question possible. \n\nType of grass...\n\ntype of mower...\n\neverything you know, tell them...

An acre is about 4000 square yards. A driving range that is 400 by 50 is 20,000 square yards. Therefore, you need about 5 acres.

Fred Couples uses a Taylor Made 580 driver and a Taylor made putter. He generally uses Bridgestone J33 Forged Cavity Black Irons. For a full list see this link: http://www.earthgolf.com/fred/equipment/equipement.shtml

Great question in today's market you can only answer that question on the driving range.  I suggest you go to several demo days hit all clubs you can and have them fit you.  That is the only way to find the best for you.  I have several of the websites on my blog roll http://360.yahoo.com/pgamoffett each website has a place you can find local demo days in your area.  You can also go to www.playgolfamerica.com to sign up for a free golf lesson this month with a local PGA pro.  Last month was free club fitting.  I'm sure if you ask the pro they will help give you some recommendations on finding a driver and with demo day information.  \nGood Luck \n\nYou can also check out www.pga.com improve your game sections for more advise about finding the right club.

umm are we supposed to guess or are you asking for recommendations.  I have Wilson Fat shafts, and a big bertha 12 degree driver and a NIke hybrid club.  read up on clubs on the internet and try some.  most golf courses you can rent or try things.  and if you dont golf yet buy a semi-cheap set and take lessons and you can always buy better clubs once you learn how you play and what you like.

I think you should get some plastic PVC pipe and related parts as needed and you can cut them to the size you actually want. So as to not make it so flimsy you should probably use about 1 1/2 to 2 inch pipe. Some kind of fish net or other netting will do .\n\nIf you check out some internet sites for golf nets you can view a pic to use as a patter I suppose.\n\nHere are a couple of good web sites.\n\nhttp://www.sportnetting.com/?src=looksmart\n\nhttp://innovagolf.com/gonetgoprnet2.html\n\nHave fun with your project.\n\nLeon
