| Introduction | Golf Planet is a blog which talk about golf and more. Hopefully you will find something interesting here. A bit about golf history. Enjoy It! What is GOLF? From the Dutch word "kolf", meaning club, but the game was invented in Scotland game going back at least to the 1400's. It's popularity was hampered by requiring close-cropped grass. The lawnmower was not invented until 1831, and not really practical until the machine-tool industry was able to cut steel gears c. 1880's. Golf wasn't played in America until 1888, when the St. Andrews Golf Club of Yonkers was formed. |
