What determins the selection of clubs in a given situation, such as hole or distance?

Every player hits their clubs differently and with a little practice you learn how far each one will go.  Sometimes the conditions on the course, or obstacles, will cause you to use different clubs from the same distance.  For example, if I'm hitting into a headwind, the ball won't go as far so I might hit a club that normally would travel farther than the current distance I am from the hole (the opposite is true when you have a tailwind).  Also, if the course is wet, or if there's a tree in your way, you might want to hit the ball lower or higher also changing your club selection.  Pro golfers can usually hit the same distance with a number of different clubs (it takes a lot of practice!).

Some tournaments take the low 68 players and ties.  Other tournaments take anyone within so many strokes of the leaders 10 and or the top 68

The standardization of 18 holes for a round of golf can be credited to St. Andrews golf course in Scotland.\n\nPrior to the mid-1760s - and right up until the early 1900s - it was common to find golf courses that were comprised of 12 holes, or 19, or 23, or 15, or any other number.\n\nThen, around 1764, St. Andrews converted from 22 holes to 18 holes. The reason? Well, everyone knows 18 holes are easier to take care of than 22!

A good club for one person may not be for another.  Picking out golf clubs, you have to consider how much you play, your budget, and what you like.  The best thing to do is try out as many as you can.  Go to Demo days and have someone fit you for clubs.  Now since you already have them, who cares what anyone else thinks.  The only  thing that matters is how you hit them and if your happy.  Now if your having trouble with them go to www.playgolfamerica.com and sign up for a free golf lesson with a local PGA pro.

Closest to pin contests, straightest drives, longest drives.  The simple stuff is sometimes the best.\n\nYou can dictate the clubs people can use, but like Doug said, that can also interfere with the tournament.\nOn an interesting note, John Daly played a longest drive contest and hit the ball 220 yards...with his putter.

I had the same problem last summer and this year i am one of the best putters in my club. These are the three things i did to improve my game. the first drill is to go out right before your round and just putt around. DO NOT putt to a hole, but rather aim for something maybe a leaf or a nut that may have fallen on the green and try to get down the speed of the greens, this may sound weird but once you get on the 1st green you will already be a step ahead of your opponents. The second drill is the short putt drill. I have missed over 300 3 and under footers until one of my freinds taught me this drill. When you under 3 feet instead of looking at youe ball or the hole look at a spot on the green that you want the ball to roll past and focus ont that you should make about 90% of them from now on. Finally the old Phil Mickelson drill set up 10 balls around a green and putt them until they all go in. I just thought of a another one i do for speed. Its bozo buckets a 6 inch, 1 foot,3 foot, 5 foot, and 15 foot putt all lined up in a straight like and then put them in and if you miss set them all up again, until you make them all in a row .

Any of the major manufacturers make quality clubs. \n\nI would recommend a cavity backed style of irons, just for forgiveness. \n\nSearch out some new clubs here:\n\nhttp://www.golfgalaxy.com

Yes, it's the volume of the driver or woods that the club head encompasses what every inside (form, empty spaces). Try the link below and move a bit around to understand what's in a driver, and clubs.

Great question in today's market you can only answer that question on the driving range.  I suggest you go to several demo days hit all clubs you can and have them fit you.  That is the only way to find the best for you.  I have several of the websites on my blog roll http://360.yahoo.com/pgamoffett each website has a place you can find local demo days in your area.  You can also go to www.playgolfamerica.com to sign up for a free golf lesson this month with a local PGA pro.  Last month was free club fitting.  I'm sure if you ask the pro they will help give you some recommendations on finding a driver and with demo day information.  \nGood Luck \n\nYou can also check out www.pga.com improve your game sections for more advise about finding the right club.

As far as I can tell, there are no illegal hole locations.  However, if I were in your position, I would adopt some local rules which would be mandated and posted for everyone to see.\n\nFor example, here are some common sense rules that I think one should obey.\n\nThe hole should be at least a club (e.g., putter) length from the edge of the green.\n\nThe hole should never be placed on a mound, where the green drops off on all sides away from the hole.\n\nThe hole shouldn't be placed in a low area where the ball will tend to roll into the hole from any direction.\n\netc.

First try going to different country clubs in the area and other golf courses.  Also, if your school don't have one, than go to different counties and check.
