Process Essay: The Sport Of Golf

The game of golf is a difficult sport. It is a big mind game, along with physical challenges. There are multiple things that can go awfully wrong, and phenomenally right. The body position and swing types can do so many things that it’s almost a mystery. Many people think golf is such an easy sport but in reality, it’s not. Golf messes with your mind more than you think. For example, if you have an object in your way like water, a tree, or a ditch, then it gets in your head.

Sometimes a golf course can have all of these things. This is what makes golf even more challenging. Golfing on hilly grounds is by far more difficult because everything changes. Your stance stays the same but where your club comes down in your swing does not. Depending on whether the angle of the hill, you will have to adjust accordingly. When you're on flat ground, your club will be able to be played in the same position every single time. Grabbing the first club out of the bag would be the driver. The driver is some peoples favorite club while for others it is their worse. Some people have the power and can drive it straight and far down the fairway, while others do not. Sometimes people tend to have a bad slice with their driver so they have to fix their stance accordingly to how they hit the ball. For example, when I hit my driver I have a bad right slice, so instead of aiming for the fairway, I aim for the left side of the fairway. By doing this I can still land on the fairway with a big curve, I just don’t have much distance because of
