ABSTRACT:
A golf game is disclosed in which each player uses a standard golf putter for striking a golf ball towards a designated one of three scoring holes provided near one end of a playing surface simulating part of a golf course. Hazard holes which are non-scoring are also provided. Switch contacts are provided in each hole to detect reception of a golf ball. A ball issuing device re-issues the ball when it is detected in one of the holes and the number of balls issued is counted. The designated hole is changed as soon as a player sinks a ball in it or after a predetermined number of balls have been used. A number is assigned to each designated hole and this number is incremented for each player when the player has sunk the ball in the designated hole or when the predetermined number of balls have been used. Scoring is provided for each player which decrements an initial score by predetermined values which vary inversely according to the number of issued balls counted for an assigned hole.
