Glossary of Terms
B
Bunker
A bunker is a steep-sided hole or shallow pit near the green or fairway that is usually filled with
sand. It can be more difficult to play a ball from sand than from grass and bunkers sometimes have
a raised lip which makes it difficult to hit the ball out of the bunker.
D
Dogleg
Some holes are deliberately designed with no direct line-of-sight from the tee to the green. A hole
may bend either to the left or to the right and this bend is called a "dogleg", in reference to the
similarity to a dog's ankle.
G
Green
A green, or putting green, is an area of closely trimmed grass surrounding the hole or pin. Holing
out or getting the ball into the hole with the minimum number of strokes possible is the main aim of
playing golf.
H
Hazard
A hazard is an area of a golf course which provides a difficult obstacle for the golfer to negotiate. A
course may include water hazards such as lakes and rivers, man-made hazards such as bunkers, and
natural hazards such as trees or thick vegetation.
Many recreational golfers use the term "hazard" to mean anything on a golf course that is hazardous
to one's score such as thick rough or a tall tree in the middle of a fairway.
L
Laying up
A layup shot is made from the fairway after the drive, but due to the presence of a hazard, you
have to deliberately make the shot shorter than usual or more accurate. This called laying up.
Most often, you lay up to avoid hitting the ball into a hazard on the fairway, or to put the ball in a
more favourable position on the fairway for the next shot.
Layup marker
A layup marker shows you how far away you currently are from the hole. For example, if you see
L100, 223, it means that you are 223 yards/metres away from the 100 yard/metre marker.
The L100 marker is 100 yards/metres from the pin.
When you reach a layup marker, the layup marker disappears from the screen.
