Last article you learned about Eagles, Birdies, Pars, and Bogeys. Now to learn a little about the course. Most golf courses have 18 holes and are Par 72, meaning that a player would need to complete the 18 holes in 72 strokes to shoot “even par”.  The place where the player hits the first shot (tee shot) is called the tee box. The shortly mowed area up the middle of the hole is called the fairway and the longer grass on the side is called the rough. Finally, the short grass around the hole is called the green and the slightly longer grass around the hole is called the fringe.
