高尔夫像一本寓意深刻的书,能从中参悟人生禅意!

心态
世上没有完全相同的球场,也没有完全相同的球洞,同样也没有完全相同的人生,差异使球场充满变数,差异使人生五彩缤纷。挑战它,欣赏它,享受它,乐趣自然来。
高球名宿Walter Hagen曾经说过:“闻闻花香,看看周围的美景,是打高尔夫球的必要的享受。”眼睛不要光盯着自己的球,别忘了欣赏一下旁边的鲜花绿水,逸蝶游鱼。看一朵春花绽放,听一片秋叶飘零,也是高尔夫球能够带给你的一部分。
在乐观者眼中,沙坑、长草、水障碍区美不胜收;在悲观者眼里,沙坑、长草、水障碍区充满杀机,所谓境由心造。
往往见到这种情形:打80杆的人回来后捶胸顿足,“那个短推杆如果不失误的话,我就打出79杆了!”而打了110杆的人却笑逐颜开,“知道吗,我从球洞区外把球切进去了!有好远呢!”
有人说,人类发明的所有运动的目的都在于娱乐,唯独高尔夫球是例外,因为它使人苦恼。事实上,要哭,抑或要笑,还不是完全取决于你自己?

规则
自律,慎独,是高尔夫球员必备的品质,其实做一个懂规矩的球员比做一个打球高手更重要。
要做懂规矩的球员,就要学好高尔夫球规则。要想守法,必先懂法,要想打好球,必须懂规则。
规则不是用来处罚你的,而是用来帮助你的,法律也是如此。 规则不能涵盖所有的事例,因为规则中规定“以公正的原则处理之”,正如法律之外还有道德。
不要用别人的错误惩罚自己。如果同伴打球不守规矩,不懂规则,坦诚地告诉他,不要自己破坏自己打球的节奏,更不要把对方的无知化做自己的愚蠢。

礼仪
球打得不好其实无所谓,只要你的风度不糟糕就好,你在球场上的表现体现着你的为人处世的态度,那可比你的杆数重要多了。
注意打球速度,高尔夫球场上的“兔子”永远比“乌龟”受欢迎。
多学一些,懂得多一些,能打得一“口”好球,也能弥补你球技的不足。
仁远乎哉!我欲仁,斯仁至矣。你要做球场上的君子,没有人能拦得住!

感悟
球进入长草里,掉入沙坑,气急败坏只能使事情更糟,退一招,可能柳暗花明。身陷困境中时,最好不要使自己越陷越深。因为一杆失误,一怒之下把球杆扔进水塘,所有的好心情全没有了。何必呢,不必为无法掌握或无法挽救的事情,毁掉自己原本可以十分快乐的一天。
毛泽东讲过,有利的情况可主动地恢复,往往产生于再坚持一下的努力之中。英国诗人里尔克说,挺住就意味着一切。一路高歌时,坚持会保证你真正笑到最后;半程坎坷处,坚持可能换来意外的胜利。在球进洞之前,什么事情都可能发生。
有人说,高尔夫球是两只耳朵之间的运动,是说高尔夫球需要动脑筋。也有人说,打高尔夫球只需大手大脚,头脑简单,就是说不需要智力。其实两者并不矛盾。在打球之前,要考虑距离、风向、下一杆落点处的状况等等,正确的分析才能产生正确的判断。但是一旦决定,就不要再考虑打左了有沙坑,打右了有水塘,打过头是长草,打就是了!
学会与陌生人一起打球,试着把球场当成自己的大会客厅。在球场结识的朋友的可信度,远远超过在酒桌上认识的朋友。
你战胜苦难,它就是你的财富;苦难战胜你,它就是你的屈辱。
追求不可能的事,那么可能的事就要落空。
一条锁链,最脆弱的一环决定其强度;一只木桶,最短的一片决定其容量;一个人,素质最差的一面决定其发展;一个球员,最薄弱的技术环节决定他的水平。
280码是一杆,5厘米也是一杆,两者在记分卡上没有区别。但是5厘米的推杆失误要比280码的开球打偏惨重得多。

责任
对自己,对球局,都要充满责任感,任何成功经验或失败都必须由你自己承担。
球打的再烂,也与其他任何人无关,因为球是你打的。
风吹歪你的球,同样也会吹歪别人的球,沙坑放在那里是为所有的人准备的,别给自己的失误找借口。
球打臭了不要怪球场。 球已发出去了,不论球是在球道正中央还是在沙坑里,你都必须接受。重要的是过程,是的,打坏了的人都会这么说。

忠告
大部分的男人判断自己打球的水平时,与主观臆断自己在某方面的能力一样,总是估计过高,偶尔打了一次79杆,就坚信自己已经是单差点了。
可能你真的很棒,但是别忘了,还会有人比你更棒。可能你真的很差,但是你别忘了,一定有人比你更糟。这都没什么,你还是你自己。
发出区的球如同泼出去的水,无可挽回,你要做的是如何打下一杆。
早起的鸟儿有食吃,所以早起打球的人被称为“early bird”,能比别人早一刻对太阳说“早安”,不亦乐乎?
不同球杆有不同的用途,不要厚此薄彼。
什么时候有想法了,什么时候就快出事了。
你的水平高,不言自明,每个人都看得见。动辄夸夸其谈自己球技如何高明的人,和动辄吹嘘自己如何成功,似乎全世界的生意都是他一个人在做的人一样,往往是最有可能作弊的人。
“名心盛者必作伪”。不要对自己期望过高,过多、过强、过盛,过高的欲望会使人心为形役,最终作弊。
千万不要作弊!即使天不知道,地不知道,别人也不知道,但你自己总知道吧?做过的错事就象打坏的球,永远都在那儿,不要让自己蒙羞。
挥杆没有打到球,千万不要掩饰说自己在试挥杆,真的假的一眼就能看得出来。
没有用过的杆绝对不要带下场,奇迹只降临在已准备好的人身上。
不要用自己的错误惩罚自己。如果你气急败坏的话,结果就会像泰戈尔所说的那样:你不仅会失去正午的阳光,还会错过夜晚的星空。
不要用自己的错误惩罚别人。不要因为自己的球没有打好就怨天尤人,责怪球童、迁怒于球场,破坏同伴打球的气氛。
小赌怡情,打球时挂点小彩无伤大雅,但是玩儿太大了就会变味。不信,你试试光吃芥末不吃生鱼片的滋味如何?
最后,与大家特别分享高球皇帝阿诺德-帕尔默(Arnold Palmer)说过的一句著名的高球名言:“人们在诗歌里能摄取到的养分,我能从一次良好的发球中感受到。”

高尔夫不同比赛形式

一、比杆赛(Stroke Play)
比杆赛为比赛者在打完规定之回合数时,一般职业比赛均为4天4回合72洞(但也有例外),其总杆数最少者,即为冠军。
一般非职业球友,如在所参加之球队月例赛打一天18洞,其杆数即为该月份之总杆成绩,成绩最佳者为总杆冠军。业余球友因球技不同,差点有高、有低,不像PRO 为零差点,故在比赛时必须有让杆之情况,比赛总杆成绩才会公平。

二、比洞赛(Match Play)
比洞赛为每一个洞为一单元来决定输或赢之比赛,每一洞杆数最少之一方,即为该洞之获胜者,在比赛规定之洞数,一般均为18洞,但也有2回会36洞之比洞赛,如果一方领先之洞数超过未打之洞数,胜负已分故可终止比赛,领先之一方即为优胜者。
业余球友比洞赛则必须在规定比赛之洞数全部打完,以18洞4个人比赛来说明,每人责任洞数为18洞除以4为4.5洞,即每人必须赢4.5洞才算平手,如有人赢了6洞,则其实他只赢1.5洞,因其基本责任洞数为4.5洞。如以每洞每人100元之比赛,则每洞有400元之奖金,因此赢1.5洞,则有600元之奖金。
建议业余球友打球时均应小赌,如此才会照规则认真的打,移球就罚杆,也没有OK,必须推进洞如此才会进步,而小赌之基金则来当聚餐之费用,才不会伤和气。

三、个人赛 (SINGLES)
系以个人为单位之比赛,有比杆赛即比洞赛之分。

四、三人二球赛(Threesomes)
一人对抗两人,每一方各打一个球的比赛。

五、四人二球赛(Foursomes)
二人对二人之比赛,而且是每队各打一个球之比赛,Ryder Cup 就把FOURSOME列为比赛专案之一。各洞打球时,同队之打者应轮流替换打球,直到将球打进洞为止,而在T台发球也应轮流替换,即同队之球友一个人负责开奇数洞之球,另一个人则负责开偶数洞之球。各洞如遇有罚球时,不影响其打球顺序。
比洞赛时,如同队之球员没有照顺序打球,则该洞即算输。而比杆赛如顺序打错,则应罚两杆,并应从打错顺序之位置重新打。

六、三球比洞赛(Three-Ball Match Play)
三人相互对抗,各自打自己的球,每个球员同时进行两个分开的比赛的比洞赛。

七、四球比洞赛(Four-Ball Match Play)
两队每队各派两人对两人之比赛,每人各打一个球,但是在接下去之第二杆,各队可选择同组中较佳之球位置打第二杆,即同队之两人,均可在同组中第一杆最佳球位置,各打一杆算第二杆,假设PAR 4上果岭后,也是可选择较靠近洞口之位置,同组两个人可在该位置推两次,当然如先推的人,已推进洞,另一人则可不必推了。如果上果岭后,同组的第一位先推没推进,而另一人随后推进,则该洞他们成绩算3杆。也就是同组的人虽有二人打球,但只有一份成绩,而比每洞成绩较少者为赢,如同杆则为平手(HALVED)。

八、四球比杆赛(Four-Ball Strok Play)
两名比赛者作为同伴打球,各自打自己的球,同伴中的较低成绩成为该洞的成绩。两队每队各派两人为一组,共4人,每人各打1个球,同组中同队两人的杆数较低者,为该队之成绩,即在某洞同队中1人打3杆、1人打4杆,则该洞该队之成绩系以较好之3杆计。由于一组中同队的球友均有2人,因此如有一人无法完成比赛或放弃某洞之比赛也无所谓,因只要另一人有成绩出来即可。

九、最佳球比洞赛(Best-Ball Match Play)
一人对抗二人中成绩较好者或三人中成绩最好者的比洞赛。

十、史特伯福特 (STABLEFORD) 比赛
以标准标为基准,打PAR得2分,多一杆则少一分,少一杆则多一分,但最少是0分,没有负分的,即打柏忌为一分,打双柏忌则没有分,打OVEER3杆也是零分,待打完18洞再计算总成绩,成绩最高者为冠军。
业余球友则以差点为基准来比赛,即零差点,则各杆不加杆。差点10者,难度第1洞到第10洞可加一杆,即一般PAR3,打PAR得2分,但此洞如为其差点之优待洞,如打3杆PAR,则可得3分。打柏忌得2分,如差点为19,则难度1的加2杆,其余各洞则加1杆,这种比赛方式在国外很多非职业性之比赛常采用。

十一、压轴登场:大流氓规则(No Touch)!
“No Touch”,这是最“狠”的一种玩法,却被越来越多的球友采用,尤其在设点儿赌彩的时候最为常用,打到哪儿算哪儿,停在哪儿就在哪儿打,就算是球停在排水井的井盖或者水泥路上也照打不误(有些人会特别规定球停在井盖或者水泥路上时可以作为“特赦”允许先垫上一块毛巾,以免伤及球杆);实在打不了就要接受罚杆回到原位重新打!下水了也要原地重打,哪怕你绝望地落水N多次也要罚杆、继续原地打直到过水为止。
难怪资深高尔夫玩家都形象地把这种打法叫做“大流氓规则”,流氓也就罢了,还要加上一个“大”字,可见这种规则是多么的“狠毒”!
