- Synopsis
- There are three images on this page: a golfer teeing off, a golf club and a golf ball with three golf club heads. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. There is a dashed line image border surrounding each image. The image of the golfer is on the left of the page. He is seen from the side standing facing to the left, with his head turned to the front so that all his facial features can be found. His head is in the top right of the image and down from this is his body on the right and his arm on the left. His hand holds the grip (handle) of the club and its shaft continues diagonally down to the head in the bottom left of the image. He is about to hit the ball, which sits on its tee (a small peg) to the left of the club's head. He is using a club called a driver or wood. It has a large, heavy head and is designed to hit the ball a great distance: sometimes as far as the hole. The golfer's legs are in the bottom right of the image. He wears a short-sleeved purple shirt and light blue shorts and shoes. The image of the golf club is in the middle of the page. It is the same driver used by the golfer to the left, shown at a larger scale. Its grip is in the top right of the image and its head in the bottom left. The golf ball and golf club heads can be found on the right of the page. The golf ball, with its characteristic dimples, is shown at actual size at the top of the image. Down the page you will find the head of another style of driver with a more rounded shape. Further down is the head of an iron, used for hitting the ball shorter distances. Each type of iron has its head set at a different angle to the shaft giving varying amounts of 'loft' or height to the ball. At the bottom of the image is a putter, used to knock the ball into the hole on the smooth turf of the green. It has a wide head with a panel of hardwood set into it. Golfers will carry a selection of clubs, each appropriate to hit the ball in a different location: the fairway, the rough, a bunker or on the green.
