Fun Golf Tournament Planning Ideas

Fun golf tournament planning can be accomplished as long as you try to keep in mind that you want it to be fun and that you can all agree on which not-too-serious golf tournament ideas to use. There are many different formats for teams of nearly all sizes and I will discuss some of them in this article. Some fun golf tournament format ideas include '123 best Ball', 'Air Presses', 'Aces And Deuces' and 'Honest John'. There are too many popular games to try to explain in such a brief article, but many can be found in golfing magazines and on-line.

When playing '1-2-3 best ball' you should have four person teams, and it is played by simply all golfers playing the entire game. When the first hole is done; the lowest score goes on the card, when the second hole is done the two lowest scores go on the card, and when the third hole is done the three lowest scores all go on the card. After three holes you start back at one.

When Playing 'Aces And Deuces' the basic idea is that the lowest score is the ace, and the highest score is the deuce, who ever is the ace wins a preset amount of money from the rest of the players. The deuce on the other hand owes each of the other players a preset amount (usually half the ace) also. This is a game where even the second and third place players still get some money back in their hands, and is usually played by four people. It is a good idea to consider when planning a fun golf tournament.

In 'Air Presses' the bets are of a predetermined amount and bets are placed by the golfer who has not swung yet as it gives both the turn to up the ante. If the second golfer bets while the first golfer's drive is in the air then he would shout' air Press' and the bet would be automatically agreed on. If the first golfer shouts air press while the second golfer's drive is in the air then the bet is automatically doubled. This game is also suited for fun golf tournament planning.

'Honest John' is also a very fun way to make things a little more interesting during a nice friendly game of golf. When playing 'Honest John' each player pays an equal amount in to a pot. Each player then writes down the score he thinks he will make on the round. At the end if the round the golfer with the closest score to what he wrote down is the winner.

These are only a few examples of some fun golf tournament format ideas. You should discuss a few ideas to your group and see what the general consensus is about each idea. Remember that a fun golf tournament is no fun with a driver sticking out of your head.

Which Golf Ball to Use?

golf balls are designed to create distance, feel and spin and are divided into two main categories: distance, and performance balls. They are made with dimples or indentations on the surface of the ball that help create lift and fight drag, keeping the ball airborne for longer. golf Balls are hand inspected one at a time under florescent lights, each ball is checked individually to insure they are as mark, scratch, and wear free as humanly possible and are packaged in 4 sleeves each containing 3 balls.

The Ball

Today's golf balls have progressed into having cores of titanium compounds, hybrid materials, softer shells and a more pressurized core. Mint, AAA, AAAA, 4A, 5 Star and Like New are just a few of the names associated with the highest quality experienced golf balls on the market. golf balls also come in different colors, which helps with finding the ball when lost or in distinguishing your ball from other players' balls. Recreational balls, which are considerably cheaper, are oriented toward the ordinary golfer, who generally have low swing speeds (80 miles per hour or lower) and lose golf balls on the course easily. Mint condition golf balls have a consistent color, glossy shine, and perform as they would out of the box. Used golf Balls mint quality recycled golf balls are the best available and are the choice for many golfers regardless of skill level. A lot of golfers wash there golf balls manually but as you might expect there are also mechanical ball washers available.

The brand

As an aspiring golfer you will notice that purchasing "new" brand name balls can be quite expensive especially when you will lose many of them to the water hazards and deep rough surrounding every golf course. X-Outs are name-brand golf balls on which that brand has been stamped out, usually with a row of X's, because of imperfections in the ball. Value Category Balls"Value" golf balls are those name brand balls that are marketed at the lower price points, usually sub-$20 per dozen. For absolute beginners who don't want used, refurbished or x-outs, but want brand new, name-brand balls, value balls are the ones to choose. From the Titleist pro V 1 and NXT tour to the callaway HX Red and Nike tour, Used Golf Balls has a wide range of name brand golf balls from which to choose. Any major sports superstore like sports Authority or their online store will carry new brand name golf balls. If you have a solid business presence already, corporate logo golf balls are the ideal choice of advertising and promotion. Also. Custom imprinted and logo golf balls are perfect as gifts, souvenirs and keep sakes, incentives, promotions, fund raisers, or any other special event, function or occasion.

In summary, Golf balls are some of the most researched and advanced pieces of sporting equipment today. Like golf clubs, golf balls are subject to testing and approval by the Royal and Ancient golf Club of St Andrews and the United States golf Association, and those that do not conform with the regulations may not be used in competitions (Rule 5-1). As you may have guessed, the best golf balls are a personal opinion.
