    1. Putter

    Putting is everything (besides mental game), a player who has a bad day usually has a bad putting day.

    2. Driver

    It has the largest head and is the longest club in the bag. It has the lowest loft/degrees (actually, second lowest. putter has about 2-3 degrees of loft).

    3. Three most common: interlock, baseball, overlap

    I used interlock when I first started but now it's just uncomfortable. I tried to use baseball because for some reason I imagined I could hit the ball farther. But 90% of my golfing experience is with the overlap grip.

    4. Set-up

    Very important for alignment and consistency. Work on a pre-shot routine also (this is a must).

    1. One that is very cheap to join, never busy, in great condition, and preferably within 10 minutes driving distance. :)

    2. Whichever club the golfer used for his "longest shot ever".

    3. Grip it as tightly as possible, till the veins are popping ! Hold on even TIGHTER through impact to prevent the dreaded hook !

    4. Various phrases are used : "While we're young"..... "Hit it before the growing grass covers up the ball" ..... "That foursome of 80 year old's is gaining on us !
