Introduction
The golfing craze continues to grow, bringing with it an odd variety of keen new golfers eager to learn the ropes of golf.
Whereas golf was formerly a male dominated sport and viewed as one aimed for the old, the boring or the rich, we are now seeing a change in the way golf is perceived, with people of all ages, genders, nationalities and social status joining in the fun.
