Nassau - A type of bet between golfers that is essentially three separate bets. Money is wagered on the best score in the front 9, back 9, and total 18 holes.

Needle - When you are verbally teasing and taunting your opponents, you are needling them or sticking in the needle. A good needier can really get under the skin of his competition.

Never Up, Never In - Admonition used after a putt is left short. In other words, another way to state the obvious.

Niblick - Another name for a 9 iron.

Non-Selective Perimeter Weighting - Equal weight over the toe and heel of the club head.

19th Hole - The only hole on which golfers do not complain about the number of shots they took, or the place where most golfers find their best lies.

Nip It - When you hit an iron shot without taking a divot, you have nipped it. Good golfers do this in an attempt to minimise backspin; bad golfers do it by accident.
