Do you know you score points at it.?

Yeah the goal is to hit balls into a series of holes on a course in as few strokes as you can.

Cool I have heard them refer to something as par before. do you know what that is?
1_Wizard
Yeah par is the predetermined number of strokes that a golfer should take to complete a hole, for example a par 3 hole should take 3 strokes.

The only tips I have would be to get out there and start playing! it takes a lot of practice, the modern game of golf goes back as far as 15th century scotland!
