Golfing equipment includes everything that is necessary or functional to game of golfing. It therefore includes the ball, sticks, equipment intervene and help the blow and the material accompanying the game itself. The minimum diameter capacity of a golfing ball is 42.67 mm and its mass must not exceed 45.93 g (wheels for golf bag). The modern golfing balls have a surface usually characterized by 300-450 dimples designed to improve the aerodynamics.

There are telescopic poles with a net or a cup at the end used to retrieve the ball in a water hazard. The rangefinders are tools to measure distances in field with precision. Using laser technology are able to measure the position of obstacles such as trees, hedges or the same flag.

Golfing is a precision sport which is practiced in an open field, for example a lawn or a field specially arranged, by means of a ball and a series of sticks. Although considered by some to be a sport of Dutch origin, the country where he enjoyed enormous popularity was Scotland (where national game).

Most of rules indicate how to behave in particular cases, as for example in case the ball ends up in a "Water Hazard", or ends outside the limits of field; but there are rules to discourage slow play, which indeed are gradually tightening with increasing number of players: for example, play a ball "provisional" when it is probable that it has lost its own, so as not to lose time in research.

The putters are clubs with a loft almost nil, useful to keep the ball low and to roll it on the green. Furthermore all the sticks are marked by a precise symbol or a number. The tee is a plastic or wooden wedge shaped sticking in ground and on which rests a ball, to ease the blow and minimize the risk of error. The use of tee is limited to first shot (tee shot) of each hole.

The length of tee depends on the stick that you want to use and professional habits: sticks with face very large tee require longer, while sticks with face less extensive loft or greater require tee very short. Alternatively to tee you can use a small pile of sand to lift the ball, practice very rare and tied to tradition, when the wooden tee were not yet used.

At the beginning of each hole the ball goes out of affected area of pre-departure, said tee out. When you play in a group, it is said that the player having the right to go first (the one with the lower handicap or because indicated by the Committee or by draw) has the '' honor '.

Golfing carts are motorized vehicles used to transport the players and the equipment during a round of golfing. They are equipped with electric motor, quieter in field and easier to manage. A pitch fork is a fork-shaped object with two prongs used to lift the pitchmark (the sign of ball left his landing in green).
