Best Answer – Chosen by Voters What I don't understand, is what difference does it make? If you don't like golf, don't watch it, don't play it, don't talk about it, don't think about it.BTW, you are not the first to post this question here. Do a search and find some of the other answers.

Your a fool you must walk 5 miles and need endurance to make proper golf swings and mental focus to play well. It takes a lifetime of practice and real physical talent that's why you see guys like brett favre play well but they are not pros. Its a skill game but power and athletic talent is key. Is baseball a sport you swing a bat theta requires skill and timing. Is basketball a sport you shoot a ball that again requires skill and timing. Golf is a sport its not a contact sport but either is track and field but that requires athletic talent so yes it's a sport not a game. Darts pool a game golf a sport even bowling is a sport because you hurl a 16 pound ball that requires skill and timing.and last but not least Golf is one of the most challenging games and sports on the planet.

Right … you're just saying that because Chess is mentally demanding, yet not recognised as a sport, even though Darts is.An easy challenge for you then. Bet you $50.Get any bat and ball sport, and see how far you can hit the ball. Or find the record for their professionals.Now go to a golf driving range. 200 meters (220 yards) is short. Some are 350 meters and the professionals still can hit further than that.You loose. Time to pay up? OK. Use that $50 for a lesson or 2 at golf.

Have you been golfing? If you're better than Tiger Woods, then maybe your point would be valid. However, I highly doubt that you are. Just because you don't exert yourself in the same way basketball and football players do, doesn't mean golf isn't a sport. Golf takes concentration, precision, technique, and consistency. All of which are qualities necessary to play most other sports.

It's too easy? Dude you've never played golf before so how can you say it's too easy? The pros make it look easy. That is why they're pros. Golf takes more time to master than any other sport. It is so technical that you can't just go out to the course and play not having swung a club for long stretches of time. Source(s): Take it from someone who has played most sports in his lifetime.

If it's "so easy"…how about a little game…$20.00 a hole, 2 down, automatic press! Bring the deed to your house…lol. you probably think NASCAR is a sport. Golf takes skill…where you come up with it;s "so easy", makes you either the most gifted athlete since Jordan…by the way…Jordan sucks on the golf course…or a complete clueless moron!

It's too easy? Then how come any old Joe can't go out on the course and beat Tiger Woods? How is putting a ball in a giant hoop with your hands harder than hitting a tiny ball into a tiny hole from 300 yards away? I'm no golf fan. I find it boring. But arguing that it is "easy" is plain ludicrous.

What are your credentials? You're entitled to your opinion, but in my mind they're not relevant to the argument unless you have demonstrated competence as a golfer. All sports are "Easy" if ones ability to play them well is not considered.

in sport you play for points and you do in golf you try to beat others in sports and you do in golf yeah i Guess golf is a sport

You obviously have never played golf… Sad how people make assumptions with no knowledge whatsoever to back them up…
2.1.2010
This is such a boring question always offered up by those who have never played the game. Hey, it's a sport. Get over it.
2.1.2010
