		Although golf is a relatively minor issue compared to other land ethics questions, it has symbolic importance as it is a game normally associated with the wealthier Westernized population, and the culture of colonization and globalization of non-native land ethics.
		Golf is usually regarded to be a Scottish invention, as the game was mentioned in two 15th century laws prohibiting the playing of the game of "golf".
		Golf courses have tended to become more controlled and their terrain more specifically changed and designed for the game - accordingly, they tend to have a quite high environmental impact although some designers have sought in recent years to minimize this.

		The reason for the Scottish golfing hiatus during this period may be simply statistical, as the game had grown to the extent that the numbers now playing in every developed country dwarfed the numbers playing in Scotland.
		Scottish golfers were sorely tried by the wave of first generation Americans that returned to assault the Championships after the War.
		If golf as we know it had its birth in the dim and distant past of the 17th century and its upbringing under the Robertson family on the links of St Andrews, then its adolescence occurred abruptly between 1848 and 1852.
