A wood is a type of golf club, club used in the sport of golf. Woods have longer shafts and larger, rounder heads than other club types, and are used to hit the golf ball, ball longer distances than other types. Woods are so called because, traditionally, they had a club head that was made from hardwood, generally Persimmon#Wood, persimmon, but modern clubs have heads made from metal, for example titanium, or composite materials, such as carbon fiber. Some golf enthusiasts refer to these as "metals" or "metal woods" but this change in terminology is not strictly necessary, because while the material has changed, the style and intended use has not. The change to stronger materials has allowed the design of the modern woods to incorporate significantly larger heads than in the past. Because of the increase in club head size, in 2004, the USGA created a new stipulation for the size of the club head. The legal maximum volume displacement of any clubhead (by the rules of golf) is Woo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The bowls are shaped (biased), so that they follow a curved path when being rolled. The game is played either in teams or one against one. The game was first played in the 13th century. The game is played on grass, although other surfaces are sometimes used. Matches are held either until one player gets to a score, or when a number of ''ends'' are played. The game is mostly played on a bowling green, which can vary by the type of bowls being played.
