Golf Equipment
A player usually carries several clubs during
the game (but no more than fourteen, the limit defined by
the rules). There are three major types of clubs, known as
woods, irons, and putters. Wedges are irons used to play shorter
shots. Woods are played for long shots from the tee or fairway,
and occasionally rough, while irons are for precision shots
from fairways as well as from the rough.
Most golf balls on sale today have about 300 to 450 dimples.
There were a few balls having over 500 dimples before. The
record holder was a ball with 1,070 dimples -- 414 larger
ones (in four different sizes) and 656 pinhead-sized ones.
All brands of balls, except one, have even-numbered dimples.
The only odd-numbered ball on market is a ball with 333 dimples.
