I’m small and dimpled, I fly through the sky. Without me, the game can’t even try.
I’m swung with grace, I’m swung with might, I help send the ball into flight.
I’m a patch of green, peaceful and wide, where golfers love to stand with pride.
You aim for me with every stroke, but once I’m reached, silence is broke.
I’m where your game begins, the first hit comes from within.
When your ball lands here, you might just groan. I’m full of sand, not grass or stone.
Though I’m not a bird, I can bring you joy, when you hit fewer strokes, oh boy!
I mark your ball’s resting place, until it’s time to swing with grace.
I’m not a house, but I have a club. People gather here and give a rub.
I come with power, I come with speed, but only once per game you might need.
I’m soft and short, my blade is flat. Use me when you’re close — imagine that!
I can be a bogey, or maybe an ace. It all depends on your pace.
Not quite grass, not quite rough, I’m cut short and make things tough.
I help you keep your place in line, my number’s high when things aren’t fine.
I’m found at the end of every hole, I hold the flag, I am the goal.
I’m high and tall, and swing I can’t. I stand to watch, but never rant.
When it’s my turn, the ball won’t fly, but it might just roll nearby.
If your ball hits me, it’s gone astray, I’m full of trees and not fair play.
You want me low, not high and wide, the lower I go, the more you smile with pride.
I’m par’s best friend and bogey’s foe, get me and your smile will glow.
You play me with honor, you play me with class, but I get frustrating when lost in the grass.
My job’s to follow, not to lead, I carry the clubs and help you succeed.
In one swing, you make me fall, and that’s the best thing of them all.
I’m shaped like a stick, but I’m no toy. I’m used by women, men, and boys.
I show the way with colors bright, red or white — I’m a guiding light.
