Golf is a club and ball sport using many types of clubs. The player hits the ball using the appropriate club into each hole on a Golf course. Golf courses consist of many holes at set distance based on the course played for starting with Teeing ground or tee. There is usually more than one available box for a player to play from. After teeing off the player again hits the ball from where it came to rest. The area between the tee box and area where the ball came to rest is called fairway. The next course is Hazards which includes many holes and various obstacles like water hazard, man-made hazards such as bunkers, and natural hazard like trees and bushes.
