Stableford scoring in golf is a system where golfers earn points for the number of strokes they’ve taken on each hole. The number of points earned depends on the golfer’s score relative to par.
In golf, achieving a birdie is considered quite the feat. But what exactly is a birdie? A birdie occurs when the player hits the ball into the hole in one stroke less than par for that hole.
It’s a little-known fact that the type of golf ball you use can have a significant impact on your game.
Are you spending your rounds of golf hunting for your ball in the woods? Or perhaps you’ve mastered the art of hitting provisional balls from the tee? Maybe you’ve even locked your driver away and now hit off the tee on the par 4s and 5s with an iron?
