PHED 1120 - Introduction to Golf

(1) Credit Hours
A physical education course designed to teach the basic skills used to solve the many unique tactical problems found in the game of golf. Additional content will include safety, rules, etiquette, equipment, and the benefits of cardiorespiratory, muscular, and flexibility training for golf performance. An additional fee and student provided transportation will be required. Students are required to supply their own golf clubs which minimally must include a putter, pitching wedge, and short-mid irons (8, 7, 6, or 5). Students completing this course will be able to: 1) identify the origin of golf and basic equipment used in the game today (clubs, balls, and training aids); 2) demonstrate a variety of basic short game skills (putting, chipping, pitching, and sand play) and the full swing (using short to mid-irons); 3) analyze strengths and weaknesses of a full golf swing.
