ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a parlor game for simulating the sport of golf. The game includes an elongated handle for being grasped and swung by the player. A flexible line is frictionally coupled through an aperture in the handle for providing a centrifugal force indication representative of a forward distance as the player swings the handle. A direction indicator is provided for being struck by the handle, or the player's hands coupled thereto, during the swing for providing a direction indication. A game board is provided which represents a golf course including a tee-off point and a hole point. Markers are provided for representing the position of each player as the hole is played. A converter adapts the indication from the forward distance and the forward direction indicators to provide a distance vector for directing the movement of the markers generally according to the rules of the game of golf.
