    the-golf-pro.com
    allknowingcaddy.com
    your-golf-pro.com
    gogolfingnow.com
    learngolftoday.com
    virtualgolflibrary.com
    thexgolf.com
    golfgolfgolfgolf.com
    thepitchingwedge.com

    A couple of those are pretty specific...learn golf, virtual library.

    I would go with one that has golf in the title, but frankly, none of those make par.

    I like allknowingcaddy.com
    seems like a good name if you are going to give golfing tips etc.

    It depends if your site is aimed at selling/teaching/or whatever. I like the last one on your list.

    It'd be nice to have at least one of your keywords in the domain (golf), but I would go for "drivingthegreen" it's a bit more memorable for the user to rememeber and you might even get word-of-mouth referrals. Buy it b/f someone else does.

    It's one way of looking at it. Or you could go with golf-driving-green-golf-caddy-buy-golf-clubs.com Some people think it'd be easier to rank :)

    I will go for a domain name that's related to the keyword i'm targetting. IMHO, Golf is pretty general and i think it'll be quite hard to rank well, and you may struggle to promote it up the SERP.

    I will go and find a golf niche and restart my domain name list. All the names suggested are okay and maybe memorable but if you can't get your visitors to come back again and again, you'll need the search engine to help you.

    Thus, you may want to reconsider all your domain name suggestion. I suggest find a niche...
