boundary The outer limits of the legal playing area on a golf course.
break The way in which a ball follows the contours of a putting green.

Boundary: Edge, of course; it confines the space/time continuum. Usually marked by white stakes.
Brassie: Old name for a 2-wood.
Break: A slope that causes the ball to turn away from a straight line. See borrow.

boundary-- The officially designated playable area of a golf course. The edge of the golf course that defines the area of play.

Off-centre A poor hit.
offset A club with the head set behind the shaft.

Out of Bounds: A ball is deemed out of bound when all of the ball lies out side of a boundary designated by the course as out of bounds. Usually designated by white stakes, fences or lines.

Firstly, the dimples delay separation of the boundary layer from the ball. Early separation, as seen on a smooth sphere, causes significant wake turbulence, the principal cause of drag.

Lateral: Type of water hazard, defined by red boundary stakes, that often runs parallel to the line of play on a hole. The penalty for hitting into a lateral hazard is one stroke. The term "lateral" may also describe a "Shank". (See "Shank.") ...

Deeper dimples create more turbulence in the boundary layer, which makes it more difficult for air to flow over the ball creating less lift. Those with shallower dimples typically will generate a higher trajectory.

A water hazard that is marked by red boundary stakes which typically run parallel to a hole's line of play. Hitting into a lateral hazard bears a one-stroke penalty.

leader board ...

White Stakes and White Lines
White stakes or white lines are used to indicate out-of-bounds. (A course can mark out-of-bounds in other ways, too; for example, a fence might mark the boundary along certain parts of a course.) ...
