ABSTRACT:
A golf board game has the graphic likeness of one or more golf holes, each comprising distinct tee, fairway, green, cup, rough and optionally, out-of-bounds, and sand and water hazard areas, depicted on a playing surface overlaid with an array of orthogonally and diagonally aligned position marks. Playing pieces are initially placed on most but not all of the position marks and play commences by the iterative jumping of one piece over an adjacently located second piece and onto an in-line, adjacent position mark and the removal of the jumped piece from the board. Play continues until no more such jumps can be made. Each remaining playing piece is assessed strokes based on the area of the golf hole on which the pieces remain and the stroke values associated with such areas. A player's score for a hole is the total number of such strokes.
