ABSTRACT:
An improved compact golf course simulates, with great realism, the drive, approach, chipping, and putting of a golf game played on a full scale course. The compact course provides the player with at least nine distinct target greens for his approach shot, each green having different sand or water hazards. The course provides the player with a plurality of chipping greens that may be played from the drive area. A common putting green containing nine holes is used to putt-out after the drives and approach shots have all been played out on the nine target greens. The target greens are designed to automatically clear balls from their surface. All drive, approach, and chip shots are taken from a common, relatively compact area. In an alternate preferred embodiment, distinctly marked putting zones are provided on the target greens and the chipping greens and for each of the holes on the common putting green.
