colors associated with golf?
what are all the different tee colors associated with golf and what do they stand for? Also what are the hazard colors.. i.e. water, grounding.. etc.
I have a test in GOLF tomorrow.. unfortunately and need to know these things.. any other fundamental golf thing would be helpful as well.. and especially anything dealing with colored markings!
Thanks 
Golf Courses today can have many different sets of tee markers. In the earliest days of the game, golfers would finish a hole, create a small two-inch pile of sand within a few yards of the hole, place their ball on top of the sand hill or “tee”, and proceed to play the next hole. Due to damage near the holes, teeing grounds were invented. Years ago, there were red tee markers for ladies and juniors, white tee markers for men, and blue tee markers for professionals or championships on the majority of courses around the world. Those standard three have evolved into up to five, six, or even seven different course distances, depending on the construction budget, and all they represent are different levels of difficulty for the course. The longer the course the particular set of tee markers create, the more difficult it is to play. The colors vary from course to course now and are generally based on the preferences of the ownership. Some use descriptive titles, such as “Forward”, “Middle”, “Back”, and “Champion” instead of different colors, in order to define their tee markers. Isleworth Country Club in Orlando, FL, where Tiger Woods lives and plays, calls their back tee markers “Tiger”, and they define the most difficult version of Isleworth, at a monstrously amazing 7,544 total yards in length!
There are only three colors of stakes or painted lines on a Golf Course recognized by the Rules of Golf. Two represent different types of water hazards, red stakes and/or lines for a Lateral Water Hazard, or one that runs along the length of the hole on either the right side or left side, and yellow stakes and/or lines for a Water Hazard, or one you must hit over in order to play a particular hole. There are different procedures to follow if you hit a shot into one or the other. It is also possible for the same water hazard to contain both types of hazard markings, depending on the direction of the hole in conjunction with the direction of the hazard. It is also possible for a hole to contain both types of these hazards that are separate from each other.
The last color you will find for stakes and lines on a golf course is white. White stakes, white lines, roads, fences, walls, or railings can all define Out of Bounds, or the course boundary or property line, although some courses create Out of Bounds within the course itself during the play of some holes. An example of this would be when holes run adjacent to a driving range, lesson tee, or practice area, there may be white Out of Bounds stakes surrounding that practice area. Other than defining Out of Bounds, white lines are also used for circular drop areas in order to facilitate proper procedure in the event of hitting a shot into a Water Hazard and/or if on one of the professional tours, hitting a shot into a grandstand. They are also used to define Ground Under Repair, which is an area from which you may get free relief in the form of a drop within one club length from the nearest point of relief out of the area that is no nearer the hole, not in a hazard, or not on a putting green.
That’s all there is to colors on golf courses with respect to tee markers and stakes or lines defining hazards or boundaries. I hope you pass your test!
