When the initial shot on a hole is intended to move the ball a long distance (typically more than 225 yards), the shot is commonly called a “drive.” Shorter holes may be initiated with other clubs, such as higher-numbered woods or irons. Playing a hole on a golf course is initiated by putting a ball into play by striking it with a golf club on the teeing ground (also called the tee box, or simply the tee).
