recorded purchase of custom made golf clubs!
You can follow the evolution of the game, its rules and the equipment used since it all began in the 15th century.
This so called “gentleman’s game” spread to the United States quickly. You can follow its history from the formation of the first golf club at Albany, New York in 1659.
If you are new to the game you can learn what the first steps to be taken are including the clubs to be used and the lessons to be taken.
