What Is 'Target Golf'?
"Target golf" is a term that describes a type of golf strategy — or requirement, actually — in which the golfer's strokes are almost all carry, almost no roll, due to course design and/or course conditions. The golfer is playing lofted shots that stop very quickly, trying to avoid penal areas, with the ground game (options to play shots that lead to the ball running a lot after landing) all but eliminated from consideration.
