The golf clap is something you’ve likely seen referenced in conversation or movies. What started as a quite and formal way to show support on the guy course has become a common action that nearly everyone has heard of.
What is a golf clap
A golf clap is a quiet and often considered “fancy” way of clapping that involves you tapping the fingers of one hand against the palm of another.
The golf clap is typically done at roughly the same speed as a regular clap. Though you must keep in mind this clap is supposed to be much quieter. If you are doing a golf clap it should be at a volume that someone more than 20-feet away should not be able to hear you.
When To Use The Golf Clap
You can use this clap in two different situations. The first being when you want to applaud quietly or symbolically.
If you ever find yourself in a situation where you want to clap but cannot make too much noise. A golfing clap will come in handy. This shows you are applauding but without the added noise.
The other time golf claps are used is sarcastic. Often times when you want to mock a friend or family member you can sarcastically congratulate them with this clap.
