From tee to green
Golf is a game of patience and precision, and this word search gathers its essentials. You'll track down the clubs — the DRIVER, the IRON, the WEDGE and the PUTTER — plus the journey of every hole, from the TEE down the FAIRWAY to the GREEN.
Each puzzle pulls a fresh selection from the list, so the round changes every time you play — gentle on Easy, and a Hard-mode 18 holes once the diagonals and backwards words appear.
Keeping score, bird by bird
Golf is unusual in that the lowest score wins. Each hole has a target number of shots called PAR; beat it by one and you've made a BIRDIE, by two an EAGLE, and by an almost unheard-of three a rare ALBATROSS — while a shot over par is a BOGEY. Watch out for the hazards along the way, the BUNKER and the SAND TRAP, and the wayward shots every golfer dreads, the SLICE and the HOOK.
The game began on the windswept links of Scotland centuries ago, and a full round is eighteen HOLEs around the COURSE. A SWING sends the ball off the tee, a loyal CADDIE carries the clubs, and a steady PUTT on the GREEN finishes the job — with a HANDICAP system that lets players of all levels compete fairly.
Great for a PE topic
It pairs nicely with a golf or mini-golf lesson, and it's a fun way to learn the unusual scoring before teeing off — Easy mode keeps the grid small with no diagonals or reverse words. Play online, print a PDF pack, or use our Make Your Own tool to build a grid from your own golfing terms.
