Default Golf Terminology
I am not new to golf. Been playing off and on for 30 years now. I am new to the terminology of golf. You see, when I started playing golf, I went to Walmart and bought a set. I then went to the golf course and "just figured it out." Since I have decided to get serious about golf, I went to GG and had a whole new world open to me. I didn't even know you could buy clubs that were fitted for you. I bought the Ping G20 irons after taking the recommendation of the golf expert there, then went home and thanks to the internet,started looking for reviews on them. This is where I found this web site. I have since found out what paint fill, why you slice, where the hosel, toe, hitting fat, hitting thin, etc. etc. is from this web site. I am now starting to "see" why I hit a ball wrong. I amsure I can't be the only one here.

Explaining these "terminologies" would help someone like me that is geting into golf serious in his later years. Let's all add something to this thread that we heard or thought we knew but didn't want to ask what it meant but when we later found out we all thought, dang that was simple, now I understand. I will start out:


Paint fill - the paint that is in the letters, numbers on your club. NOT paint that is poured in your shaft or iron for what ever reason. I know, that sounds stupid but I actually thought that. Just didn't know how it would help.
