Golfimbul

Orc, leader of an Orc-band which was defeated in the Battle of Greenfields in the Northfarthing. He was slain by Bandobras Took.


The name Golfimbul is either facetious or fictious or else translated Westron, since Professor Tolkien derives the source of the game and the name of golf from it. Also, since the Orc band was probably not very large, Golfimbul, if a historical personage was probably somewhat less than a king.
