A lot of people start playing golf at a young age then continue well in their 60s or 70s. Many prefer the game because it does not require a lot of energy and you don’t sweat a lot. However, it does not mean that golf is an easy sport. Ask any golfer and they will tell you how much the sport requires mental focus, a positive energy and strong legs and arms. Whether you’re playing competitively or casually, golf is one of the best games to enjoy with family and friends.
During the 1800s, the first official group of golfers, known as the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, presented flag sticks that indicate the putting holes. Through the years, golf has changed a lot and you will now see various golf flags that will indicate where the holes are located. There are four kinds of flags frequently found on many courses.
A number of golf courses feature a golf flag for each hole available. There is also a minor flag that will show the position of the hole. The minor flag will be useful in helping the golfer determine the proper position of the hole. The objective is to keep the game going regardless of the terrain and total number of golfers playing. The minor flag will show where the golf hole is directed to.
Golfers usually need to hit the ball towards the green even without having to see the exact target. Golf flags will also serve as safety indicators to prevent accidents and other people getting hit by the ball.
