A 
Autoshot detection 
Your watch automatically records one swing or shot at each location and tells you by vibrating and 
showing an alert. If you make practice swings within 15 metres of a location, your watch doesnt add 
extra strokes and hence doesnt vibrate.  
  
B 
Bunker 
A bunker is a steep-sided hole or shallow pit near the green or fairway that is usually filled with 
sand. It can be more difficult to play a ball from sand than from grass and bunkers sometimes have 
a raised lip which makes it difficult to hit the ball out of the bunker.   
D 
Dogleg 
Some holes are deliberately designed with no direct line-of-sight from the tee to the green. A hole 
may bend either to the left or to the right and this bend is called a dogleg, in reference to the 
similarity to a dogs ankle.  
G 
Green 
A green, or putting green, is an area of closely trimmed grass surrounding the hole or pin. Holing 
out or getting the ball into the hole with the minimum number of strokes possible is the main aim of 
playing golf.   
H 
Hazard 
A hazard is an area of a golf course which provides a difficult obstacle for the golfer to negotiate. A 
course may include water hazards such as lakes and rivers, man-made hazards such as bunkers, and 
natural hazards such as trees or thick vegetation.  
Many recreational golfers use the term hazard to mean anything on a golf course that is hazardous 
to ones score such as thick rough or a tall tree in the middle of a fairway.  
L 
Laying up 
A layup shot is made from the fairway after the drive, but due to the presence of a hazard, you 
have to deliberately make the shot shorter than usual or more accurate. This called laying up. 
Most often, you lay up to avoid hitting the ball into a hazard on the fairway, or to put the ball in a 
more favourable position on the fairway for the next shot.  
Glossary of Terms  
						

							35 
 
 
 
Layup marker 
A layup marker shows you how far away you currently are from the hole. For example, if you see 
L100, 223, it means that you are 223 yards/metres away from the 100 yard/metre marker. 
The L100 marker is 100 yards/metres from the pin. 
When you reach a layup marker, the layup marker disappears from the screen.   
M 
Medal play 
Your TomTom Golfer 2 can be used for normal stroke play, also known as medal play. This involves 
counting the total number of strokes taken on each hole during a round, or series of rounds. The 
winner is the player who has taken the fewest number of strokes over the course of the round, or 
rounds.  
O 
Out of bounds 
Out of bounds means that all of your ball is laying beyond the boundaries of the golf course or any 
part of the course. The boundary of the golf course is marked by the committee in charge of the 
competition or the golf course. 
Usually, if your ball is out of bounds, you must play the ball, under penalty of one stroke, as nearly 
as possible at the spot from which the original ball was last played. However you should refer to the 
rules for your particular course.  
P 
Par 
The par value for a golf course is the pre-determined number of strokes that a scratch or zero 
handicap golfer needs to play a hole, a round (the sum of the pars of the played holes), or a 
tournament (the sum of the pars of each round).  
A golfers score is compared with the par score. If a course has a par of 72 and a golfer takes 76 
strokes to complete the course, the reported score is +4, or four over par, taking four shots more 
than par to complete the course. If a golfer takes 69 strokes, their reported score is –3, or three 
under par.  
S 
Stroke play 
Your TomTom Golfer 2 can be used for normal stroke play, also known as medal play. This involves 
counting the total number of strokes taken on each hole during a round, or series of rounds. The 
winner is the player who has taken the fewest number of strokes over the course of the round, or 
rounds.  
W 
Water hazard 
Water hazards are usually natural obstacles that add difficulty to a golf course, though on brand 
new courses they can of course be man-made. A water hazard may typically be a stream or pond, 
positioned next to the fairway or across a fairway, forcing the player to hit the ball over the water 
hazard.
