So I am going golfing this weekend and thought I would bring along the ol camera.

Does anyone have any general pointers for shooting golf ? Its just me and my buddies, so Im not worried about the no shooting in the back swing rule, in fact I plan on intentionally trying to mess them up :)

Anyway, a few pointers, maybe good angles to shoot from etc. I would like to do some creative stuff using DOF as well and things of that sort.

Cheers!

Lets see...I'd say for one always show the club. The player gripping some metal stick does not usually tell a story. Also, since golf does not have a ton of action (although getting the ball being hit is always good), try to focus on player emotions and reactions. But most of all, have fun (and don't get hit) :D

Definitely pay attention. I work on the local ambulance and we picked up a gentleman the other day that got dinged in the forhead. 12 stitches later he said he was going to go finish his round. At least he was on the 17th.:lol:
