02Practice & Data
Do Golf Simulator Rounds Count Toward Your GHIN Handicap?
The short answer is no: a normal simulator round should not be posted to GHIN. The more useful answer explains why, what a virtual handicap measures, and which number belongs in an outdoor round, an indoor league or a practice record.

July 2026 Golf Technology Releases Worth Understanding
A connected rangefinder, a larger mini driver, golf advice through AI glasses, two new indoor impact measurements and a luxury watch that tracks strokes gained. Five announcements landed within a month. Here is what the companies actually said, what changed, and what remains unproven.
04Practice & Data
Launch Monitor Numbers, Explained
A launch monitor can return more than forty numbers from one swing. You do not need forty swing thoughts. Learn which measurements describe the result, which ones explain the cause, and how to turn a screen full of data into one useful practice decision.
05Golf Basics
The Different Types of Golf Clubs, Explained
A golf bag is not a checklist of products. It is a set of tools for different distances, flights and lies. Here is what every club is built to do, where the categories overlap, and how to choose the ones that earn a place.
06Golf Culture
The History of Golf, Without the Myths
Golf did not arrive fully formed on an eighteen-hole course, and its name does not stand for a Victorian insult. The real story is better: a game shaped by public land, handmade balls, local rules, industrial materials and six centuries of argument.
Closer to home
