Golf is among the most popular sports in the world right now.

To get started on this game, it would be advisable that one take up golfing lessons from a certified trainer. Most golf courses should have such a trainer while also offering good deals for the beginners where one can join a group of beginners and be taught in a group. However, it would be best to have individual lessons where one will be taught all the golfing basics at their own rate of learning.

One needs to be careful not to learn from friends as this can cause one to start on the wrong footing since they may teach one the techniques in a wrong manner. The trainer should be able to teach you on the basics. This includes gripping the club, how to address the ball, how to swing the club, how to putt among other basic techniques.

The next thing is that one should buy their own set of clubs. It does not need to be a full set, but find out the most important clubs that every golfer should have. For a beginner it is advisable to buy a cheap set first and learn how to use them. When you are good enough one can buy the new expensive clubs which you will now be able to use properly.

Golf is known as a game for gentleman therefore etiquette and rules of the game are very important. The rules are available and they dictate on how to act during different situations during the game. Also there is the general etiquette guide that is generally common sense but should be strictly followed for an enjoyable experience.

Before heading for the main course one should practice at the driving range for a few times. This helps one to build confidence while also helping one to know the distances as well as the trajectory of the clubs to use. Later, one should begin with the course for more practice.

The best tip for learning how to play golf is simply practice, practice and more practice. Ensure that you understand all the rules of the game and then work on your grip and swing.
