  1. Ball and club guides

    Draw a light circle on the left for the golf ball, then a small oval on the lower right for the club head.

  2. Ball and club head

    Trace the ball outline on the circle, then the club head outline on the oval with a flat striking face.

  3. Tee and dimples

    Add a small tee with a narrow stem below the ball, then seven small dimples across its upper half.

  4. Club shaft

    Draw a long straight shaft rising from the top of the club head up to the upper part of the page.

  5. Club grip

    Add a short thicker grip section at the top of the shaft.

  6. Grass mound

    Draw a low bumpy grass mound across the bottom of the page below the tee.

  7. Grass blades

    Add six short pointed grass blades standing evenly along the top of the mound.

  8. Ink the lines

    Go over every kept line with dark ink, then erase the light ball circle and club head guides.

  9. Color the golf scene

    Fill the ball white, the tee tan, the club head and shaft silver, and the grass mound green.

Golf Drawing Ideas to Try Next

Once the basic golf clicks, run it through these variations — each one practices a different skill while staying on a subject you already know.

  • A trophy-shelf still life

    Your golf sitting among medals and a small trophy — the memory-shelf composition.

  • Kawaii golf mascot

    Put a determined little face on it and stubby arms — sports equipment makes great characters.

  • Golf mid-action with motion lines

    Draw the equipment in motion — speed lines and a blur trail add energy for free.

  • A team poster design

    The golf plus a banner, a jersey number, and bold lettering — the design players actually want.

Tips for Better Golf Drawings

  • Add a scuff or a grass stain: used equipment has character that showroom equipment doesn’t.
  • On any ball, every seam line must curve with the sphere — one straight line flattens it into a sticker.

Golf Drawing FAQ

How do you draw a golf easily?

Start with precise basic geometry (usually a circle), keeping your lines light. Refine the outline, add the defining details, then erase the construction shapes. The nine-step method above breaks this down — most people get a recognizable golf on their very first try with it.

How long does a golf drawing take?

A simple golf drawing takes about 10 minutes following this tutorial. A quick doodle version can be done in two or three minutes, while a detailed, fully-shaded study might take an hour. Speed comes with repetition — the second attempt is always faster than the first.

What supplies do I need for golf drawings?

Just a pencil, an eraser, and any paper. An HB pencil for construction lines and a 2B for final outlines is a nice upgrade, and colored pencils or markers finish it off — but nothing on this page requires special supplies.

Can kids draw a golf?

Yes — the golf is one of the friendlier subjects for beginners, and this method was written for first-timers. Kids can follow the same steps; just expect wobblier lines and more charm.
