Orlando Golf Courses And Refining Your Game

By Patty Summers


Orlando Golf Courses offers the golfer the perfect opportunity in refining their game on some of the most spectacular courses found in this part of the United States of America. It is a city located in the eastern part of the country and is located just off the Atlantic Ocean. Because of this Orlando boasts some of the most challenging and scenic courses that golf has to offer.

Link layout courses are a challenge in and of themselves purely because of their geographical location. If you had to envisage a course such as this what would normally come to mind are images of the seaside should you have ever visited a seaside resort. Typical of these locations are sand swept beaches and of course at times severe wind conditions depending on which time of the year you intend playing.

Roughs are that part of a course that demarcate the boundary of the fairway. For novice golfers playing under severe conditions these roughs made up typically of tall thick and bush grasses and vegetation can be defeating. It is best advised to play one of the many other courses dotted around the City of Orlando that offer less challenging game.

You will want to avoid the roughs as much as possible when playing through eighteen holes as landing in them invariably requires you to lose a shot and drop out. Playing out of them is extremely difficult at some of these styled courses as the ball, if located, will be buried and barely visible as you swing through the stroke. These roughs pose a challenge for even the most seasoned of golfers but link courses offer a challenge like no other and this is the reason that golfers will make clubs like these their choice of preference.

You can now familiarize yourself with your surroundings and take note of factors such as the distances of each hole from the tee off area to the pin placement on the green. Pin placements are changed from time to time and club supervisors and green keepers will usually do this on a weekly basis. It is therefore a worthwhile exercise to take a look where the last position was located on each green.

Most golfers make it a practice to do just this as it allows them to think about how they will play through the eighteen holes. Each hole has its obstacles and challenges. You will want to take note of several factors when walking through the eighteen holes.

Starting off at hole one through to hole nine, layouts of these styled courses are often laid out such that the first nine holes will head you off in one direction. Playing the back nine will find you walking in the direction of the club house which is your end destination. The point here being is that the wind conditions will change when you turn around and head back to the club house.

The best way to judge which way the wind is blowing on any particular Orlando Golf Courses is to take some sand or a pinch full of grass and throw it up in the air. Obviously you will be able to feel which way the wind is blowing without having to do this. This will give you an indication as to the force of the wind blowing on any particular hole.
