Golf Terms I have learned so far:

Break: When you are putting on the green and your ball begins to turn

Chip: The chip is a shot that is normally played from just off the green

Driver: The driver is the longest club in your golf bag and is the club which gives you greater distance than any other golf club

Fairway: the grassy area

Follow Through: Having taken your swing and made contact with the ball, the 'follow through' refers to the subsequent movement of your club and your body.

Fore: The word 'fore' is shouted loudly as a warning signal when a ball is hit and heading in the direction of another player.

Green: The green area is a closely mowed area on which the hole is situated. It is also referred to as the putting surface.

Hole: The hole is the ultimate target for the golf ball on each hole.

Hook: A hook shot is a shot which bends to the left (for right-handed golfers).

Interlocking Grip: This is a form of grip in which the index finger of one hand is 'interlocked' with the small (pinky) finger of the other hand.

Iron: An iron is a club which uses a metallic blade for the clubhead. Most golfers carry in the region of 8-10 irons which range from a number 2 iron to a sand wedge. Each club is designed to provide a different degree of loft on the ball.
