The aim of the game is to put the ball into the holes with the fewest shots. Most of the times the beginners find themselves in the dark regarding the equipment and accessories needed for the game. Some of the things that every golfer will need for his game are:

2.Tees It is the equipment that is used the most in the course. It holds the ball during the first shot of the game. They could be bought in bulk either in wood or plastic depending on your budget. They are quite easily lost and broken during a game.
3.Ball marker It is used to put your identification mark on your golf ball.
4.Divotis It is a small 2 pronged accessory used for repairing any kind of indentations formed on the ground after the ball has landed at the spot.
5.Golf towels these are used to clean the ball once it lands on the ground. They are available in a variety of different designs and can be easily hooked to the golf bags.
6.Golf brush it is used to clean the grooves present in the golf clubs.
7.Ball retriever it is used to take out the ball in case it gets inside water. It can be bought quite cheaply and can save the expensive balls from getting lost.
Out of all of the above mentioned accessories the most important ones are the bags being used, as they protect and carry all other accessories. These are made out of canvas, leather and nylon reinforced with a framework of metal/plastic. There are a few different types of bags available depending on your requirements.
Sunday bags are the smallest ones available and can be easily carried around because they are lightweight. These bags can be rolled when empty and have low storage space and lack stand legs along with segregated pockets.
Stand bags are quite similar to the Sunday bags but have a reinforced structure and foldable legs to make a tripod stand during the game.
Then comes the cart bags, these are designed in such a manner that they can have better storage space and can be easily harnessed to a golf cart.
The biggest bags available that are mostly used by professionals are called staff bags. These bags have enormous storage capacity and can even hold an extra pair of clothing apart from the otheraccessories required for the game. These bags are specially handled by caddies or assistants.
