      Introduction

      Welcome newbie and thank you very much for your interesting in reading this golf book. We have named it From zero to Hero as it is intended for people who have never played golf in their lives and now, want to become a part of it.

      First, let us start by telling you that you have made a great choice, golf is a beautiful and healthy sport that you can almost play it for the rest of your life. We are not going to lie to you; there will be times in which you will not agree with this sport, this may happen more times than the times you agree with it. But there is a reason why golf is so popular and has been for so many centuries (that’s right, centuries) and all around the world.

      In this book, we will go over all of the spectrum that you should know before your first stroke, we will go through rules, etiquette, equipment, how the game is played, scoring, different types of playing, beginners tips and finally a conclusion which will be similar to this one right here: Go, start, golf is a journey, not a destination, begin it as soon as possible and never let it end.

      Even though we will go through some basic tips and other helpful data, the only thing we will not go into will be the golf technique, as this requires a whole other book with much more pictures, videos, etc. But we will let you know how you can learn the techniques and what to look for in
