What is the name of a golf goal?

Answer 1

i guess whereas in soccer you score a goal in golf you hole out.

u can "hole out" with different scores, example - par, birdie, eagle

Answer 2

there is no goal

there is a cup where you putt or roll the ball into no goal and the main goal is to always be under par

Answer 3

Like how does the scoring work you mean?

There is a general rating for a golf course, which is called "par" The average full size course is usually a par 70-71- or 72. For example, lets use the par 72. You want to get around the course in 72 shots or less (which is difficult to do).

There are 18 holes on a course, and there are different pars for each hole. Either a par 3, 4, or 5. You want to get the hole done in par or less. So...

even par on the hole= par

1 stroke under the par of the hole = birdie

2 strokes under the par of the hole = eagle

3 strokes under the par of the hole = albatross (rare)

1 stoke over the par on a hole= bogey

2 strokes over the par on a hole= double bogey

3 strokes over the par on a hole= triple bogey

4 strokes over the par on a hole= quadruple bogey

So say if you had 7 birdies in one round (-7), 1 double bogey (+2), and one bogey (+1); your end score would be a total of -4. And compared to the par of the course, which is 72, you would have shot a 68.

Hope that made sense.

Answer 4

There is no golf goal . Be more specific as to what you are asking . People are not clairvoyant.

Answer 5

In football and soccer you refer to scoring points as a goal.

In basketball a score is refered to as sinking a basket.

In golf scoring is referred as eagle(2 under par), birdie(1 under par), par(breaking even), bogey(1 over par), double bogey(2 over par)
