The goal of a golfer is to complete a round of golf in the fewest number of strokes possible. This is achieved by playing each HOLE from the tee box to the green and then sinking the ball into the HOLE. The term GOLFER'S GOAL can be broken down into three parts: PAR (3 letters), HOLE (4 letters), and PIN (3 letters). PAR is the predetermined number of strokes a golfer should take to complete a HOLE, HOLE is the target area where the golfer must sink the ball, and PIN is the flagstick that marks the location of the HOLE.
