what breaks more an uphill putt or a down hill putt - any articles to prove it?

The faster the ball goes the more it will break down hill

A dent in the driver will affect a pros game to some degree but for an amature golfer I dont think it would make a hill of beans difference.\n\nThe only real difference it could make to an amature is a phycologicle difference if anything. Dont run out and spend hundreds of dollars on a new driver.\n\nLeon

There's one attack called a "slide" where the attacker will take a running approach that is almost parallel to the net, just behind the setter, and is typically done by jumping off of one foot.  Looks like a lay-up in basketball.  It's a relatively quick attack with a lot of momentum, and because the approach is almost parallel, the attacker usually stays on his/her side of the net.  Personally speaking though, I haven't really noticed whether or not women use it more than men.

One of the best sites that I know of is golfmagazine.com. You can get written and video tips free of cost. You can even answer a questionaire about your game, and the site will automatically tailor the lessons to your address your weaknesses. Hope this helps.

Yes - roll a ball down a hill. It has linear inertia (the balls center of mass moving down the hill) and rotational inertia (the ball is spinning while it moves down the hill).

The serve. You have to be able to at least get the ball in play. With other strokes, your opponent can effect how you hit them. The serve is all on you.

I had the same problem last summer and this year i am one of the best putters in my club. These are the three things i did to improve my game. the first drill is to go out right before your round and just putt around. DO NOT putt to a hole, but rather aim for something maybe a leaf or a nut that may have fallen on the green and try to get down the speed of the greens, this may sound weird but once you get on the 1st green you will already be a step ahead of your opponents. The second drill is the short putt drill. I have missed over 300 3 and under footers until one of my freinds taught me this drill. When you under 3 feet instead of looking at youe ball or the hole look at a spot on the green that you want the ball to roll past and focus ont that you should make about 90% of them from now on. Finally the old Phil Mickelson drill set up 10 balls around a green and putt them until they all go in. I just thought of a another one i do for speed. Its bozo buckets a 6 inch, 1 foot,3 foot, 5 foot, and 15 foot putt all lined up in a straight like and then put them in and if you miss set them all up again, until you make them all in a row .

In order to get the most distance out of a particular golf ball it is important that individuals select a ball which matches their swing speed. \n\nAs a ball is struck, the majority of the power is created by the compression of the ball (i.e. the ball is indented) and the resulting action of the ball springing back into its original shape. Therefore, if a golfer selects a ball which is very difficult to compress (higher compression balls - 100, 110) he/she will not get as much spring action, and therefore distance, out of the ball as they do not hit it with enough force to compress it adequately. \n\nFor this reason balls designed for ladies tend to be easier to compress as their swing speed tends to be lower than that of the average male. Lower compression balls (i.e. 60, 70, 80) will compress more easily allowing for maximum spring back into shape and thus maximizing the speed at which the ball leaves the club. \n\nAlthough a high compression ball is more difficult to compress, if a golfer has significant swing speed such that they are able to compress the ball adequately the spring (i.e. the bouncing back into it original shape) of a high compression ball is more forceful that that of a lower compression ball. Therefore, similar compression on lower and higher compression balls will result in different distance, with the higher compression ball traveling farther.\n\nFollow the link below for everything you ever wanted to know about a golf ball!

You're most likely referring to the 'Course Rating' which in conjunction with the 'Slope Rating' of the course can be used to apply your GHIN to the course you're playing. \n\nSee an explanation here:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_rating

It's now called a strong 3 wood, and depends on who hit it. I've seen Tiger hit his 15 degree 3 wood, 270 yards from a fairway!! Sure can replace driver, easier to hit.

both has its own fun.... i thnk a difficult 3 would b a better way of finishing a game..... block is also gud if u block their best player and the block makes dat fantastic nosie(thud).....

It is true that temperature will affect the distance of a golf ball. However, without knowing the exact composition or performing controlled experiments, it would be difficult to give an exact answer. \n\nBelow is a link to perform such an experiment. Measure the ball's rebound ability for 2 different temperature of balls, and you will get a good approximation of a percentage.\n\n**UPDATE**\n\nAs per your update, more information would be needed than just temperature to do this calculation, as humidity, atmospheric pressure, and type of clubs would have as much or more involvement than temperature.  I've included a couple new links that show some of the differences in ball flight vs. temperature, of particular note would be the last link, which has a calculator for your exact problem.

Well, if I am playing with friends I would beat the tar out of my buddy who ever-so-kindly parked his cart on my ball.\n\nIn all seriousness though, I believe that falls under rule 13 of the Rules of Golf: Ball Played as it Lies. However, because the cart is a movable obstruction the cart should be moved and played where it lies. However, if the cart were to become inoperable then the player would be due relief.

That is 1 under on a hole\n2 on a par 3\n3 on a par 4\n4 on a par 5\n\nNow if you want to make a birdie - working on your putting so when you get a birdie putt you can make it

Every course has a set number of "par."\n\nPar is when you hit the ball a certain number of times. Let's say the par is 3. That means, according to the course, you should be able to sink your ball in 3 shots.
