Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which of these is a name of a golf-ball manufacturer?

Answer: Titleist

Titleist is the only correct answer here. Maybe perhaps down the road others will come up with some creative names like these!
2. If you hit a ball in a water hazard, how many penalty strokes do you receive?

Answer: 1

Also, in most cases, you can hit the ball in the water until you get +12 for a hole. That's twelve penalty strokes! Yikes!
3. Which of these will you most likely not find on a golf course?

Answer: cows

So far as we know, no cows have been killed by a golf ball.
4. Which of these is most dangerous to a golfer?

Answer: lightning

If thunder is approaching, get off the course immediately.
5. Complete the last name of this well known PGA professional golfer, who plays left-handed, from the late 1990s and early 2000s: Phil _______ ?

Answer: Mickelson

Phil Mickelson is right handed but plays golf left handed.
6. If you hit a golf ball outside of the range of play, you are said to have gone _______ ?

Answer: out of bounds

Of course, if I hit a ball out of bounds, I'd probably be out of breath, too. :)
7. When you shoot a low ball out from under trees, what type of shot are you hitting?

Answer: punch

Remember, you can punch a ball on the golf course to vent your anger. Don't punch the gophers, or your teammate.
8. The cup the Americans and Europeans play for every other year is called the _______ Cup.

Answer: Ryder

9. What is the term for the surface you hit that has the pin on it?

Answer: green

I think 'green' is the only term ever used to define this area.
10. Which of these clubs is a real club you can find in your golf bag?

Answer: 8 Iron

A 12-iron would be a real oversize club wouldn't it?
