I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'take' is the definition.
(I know this)

'golfer upset about bad' is the wordplay.
'golfer' becomes 'els' (Ernie Els - former number one professional golfer).
'upset' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'bad' becomes 'naff' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'els' reversed gives 'sle'.
'sle' placed around 'naff' is 'SNAFFLE'.
