A mulligan is commonly used by us non-golfers.

The lower the number of a club, the further distance one can expect from it.

3. Where is the tee placed when driving a ball?

4. The narrow strip of grass leading up to the green is called what?

This one is just too easy.

5. Which of the following clubs has the highest degree of loft?

Answer: Sand Wedge

The sand wedge is made for putting a lot of air under the ball and allowing it to drop on a location more than roll to a location.

6. If you are a left-handed player and you hook the ball; the ball will travel from left to right?

Answer: True

A hook travels left to right and a slice travels right to left.

7. If you shoot one over par for a particular hole, the correct score for that hole is referred to as a what?

Answer: Bogey

A bogey is the nickname for a score of one over par, or in my case it's the best score I can usually get!

8. If you are driving a golf cart on a course and the sign says 90 degree rule in effect, what does that mean?

Answer: You can only drive on the cart path and at a straight line to your ball.

90 degree rules are usually in effect when there is incliment weather and the course is wet or is subject to damage and little traffic on the fairways can be tolerated.

9. If you are playing golf with friends and you decide to play a round of "best shot," what exactly are you doing?

Best shot really speeds up the game by letting the second shot take place much closer to the hole.

Answer: Fingernail

Fingernail is not amongst golf ball manufacturers.
