Tips for the new golfer?

Question

I am going golfing with my bf for the first time ever tomorrow, he's taking me to a driving range to practice and then he's going to do 9 holes and I'm just gonna tag along. I really don't want to look like a complete moron, but I know nothing about golfing, what should I wear and can I please get some advice or tips about what to do so I don't look really bad?

Answer 1

Ooh! Golfer boys are ALWAYS cute! Lucky you!

As for golfing...I h8 it!

I like the clothes tho.

You should wear a polo and capris/shorts or a skort.

Do NOT wear jeans.

Have a great time!

I hope I helped!

Answer 2

head down left arm straight, a top or shirt with a collar and sleeves,short are find sun visor

Answer 3

So are you playing or are you just watching him?  Capris will be fine.  You can wear shorts or skorts, but if it's a course that is not ran by the city, no denim or halter tops.  You can wear a sleeveless shirt, but no tank tops.  Don't talk while the person is taking a shot or putting.

Answer 4

it doesn't matter what you wear.

i reccomend looking up some videos on a proper swing to get the idea

Answer 5

As a golfer taking my girlfriend out for a game of golf it would be a real turn on if she was wearing something subtley naughty - for my eyes and knowledge only - not something smutty.  Wink wink nudge nudge. know what I mean?

That would encourage me to forgive all her bad shots and really try and teach her properly.

Good luck and enjoy.

Answer 6

On what to wear: probably a shirt with collar, shorts or pants would be ok.  Most golf courses have dress codes and require collared tops, and no jeans.  If you are going to wear a short skirt, make sure you wear something under... golf courses could get windy.

As for golf tips, first timers should listen to her bf on what to do.  I'm sure he'll do his best to help you along.  Don't feel bad about not being able to hit the ball.... we've all been there when we first started golfing.

Answer 7

Too many golf etiquettes for a novice, but here are few that will help you get through the day....  :-)

1) No dresses, jeans, tank tops.  Stick with a polo shirt and shorts/capris/pants.

2) Invest in a pair of golf shoes.  It's not require to wear them, but it's difficult to walk 9 holes with no traction.

3) Playing order - whoever has the ball the furthest from the hole plays first.

4) Never walk over someone's putting line on the green.

5) Always rake the sand bunker after playing

6) Always congratulate other players if they make a nice shot or putt.

Hope you have fun....
