3 Reasons To Take Up Golf

Golf is a game played by over 4 million people in the UK. Its popularity is ever increasing and for good reason. That many people can’t be wrong. If you’re toying with the idea of taking up golf and maybe investing a in a few lessons, perhaps the arguments below will convince you of the game’s worth.



Excersise



Many of us lead very sedentary lives, usually as a result of having a hectic 9-5 office job. We might have family to take care of the rest of the time and before we know it, the week has slipped by and we still haven’t been able to do any exercise. Contrary to what some people might believe, golf is a sport which is great for increasing your level of physical fitness. You might not be sweating profusely by the end of it, but you will have walked an awful lot around the course and as we know, walking is one of the best forms of exercise you can do.



Fresh air



What’s so good about golf is that it can be played in any weather; on a sunny day, there is surely nothing so glorious as to be out on a green playing a few rounds of golf, and similarly, in blustery weather a round of golf can be very invigorating. Instead of exercising in a sweaty, stuffy, overcrowded gym, get outside and breathe in some fresh air; you’ll feel fitter already.



Fun



With the busy lives we all lead nowadays, it’s good to have a hobby to provide some escapism - even better if this hobby involves exercise, which golf does. Golf is a fantastic opportunity to get together with some friends and play a few rounds. Belonging to a club also adds to that feeling of camaraderie, especially when you’re digesting your game over a pint in the clubhouse afterwards.
