Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How long does a game of golf last?
A. It usually takes about four hours to complete all 18 holes. However, the actual length of time would depend on the number of people you're sharing the course with, the number of people you're playing with and the number of strokes everyone takes.
Q. Do you need any special physical attributes in order to play golf?
A. Just about anyone can play golf, regardless of body type or age. However, just like any other type of sports there are certain physical attributes that can help you improve your game such as overall fitness, flexibility, coordination and athleticism.
Q. Do golf courses impose dress codes?
A. A lot of golf courses have dress codes, while most municipal golf courses do not have any – as long as you're dressed you're in.
The strictness of dress codes on each course varies. This generally depends on the price range of the course you're playing on. The typical outfit would include a collared shirt and Dockers-style shorts. Nonetheless, it might be useful to inquire about the dress code before heading to the course.
Q. How much does a round of golf cost?
A. Contrary to popular belief, playing golf does not need to be expensive. The golf market is quite diverse, as some areas offer a wide range of public golf courses while others have private courses. Now just like everything else in the market, the price would depend on the “supply and demand”. In cities that cater to resort tourists with few public courses, the fee will be higher. Meanwhile, in cities with a lot of public golf, the fees would be lower.
