Golfing Courses From Around The World Described In Detail

By Chris Channing

Golfing is a past time of many, and a way of life for famous professionals such as Art Wall, Tiger Woods, and Arnold Palmer among others. As you look around the world, you can see that golf courses can have many surprises that you could only dream of one day playing on.

Traveling outside of the United States takes a lot of work- but you might not even have to! There are plenty of golf courses in the fifty states currently governed. Residents of Idaho can travel to California and have a very different game, and vice versa. Themed courses found in areas such as Florida can also put a new spin on golf that can be exciting to play through for your first time.

Playing golf at high altitudes is possible by traveling to South America. In the location of Morochocha is a golf course that is one of the highest elevated golf courses in the entire world. The high elevation has been known to making breathing hard; senior citizens and those who have trouble breathing should ask a physician before proceeding.

Golf courses that stick around through the years are seen as successful and a joy to play through. Following that ideology, you could say India has some of the best courses as one course is well over a century old. For over 150 years, a famous course in India has been allowing golfers to get their fix on the green grasses of the age-old field. You will experience more than just a good game of golf, but perhaps even a history lesson.

Your heroes in golf have all visited Japan to see the highly regarded golf courses in the area. Japan golf courses have many that feature natural traps that make the game of golf about strategy rather than driving the ball as hard as you physically can. Japan courses will make you think, use every ounce of golf knowledge you have, and engulf you in a beautiful environment filled with beauty.

You can do some sight seeing in China and also get your game of golf in by going to a famous golf course located near The Great Wall. The golf course does deviate away from The Great Wall, but the beginning fairway gives you a clear cut view of one of the Earth's great wonders. There is no better way to enjoy a sunny China afternoon than killing two birds with one stone.
