ABSTRACT:
An indoor golf game consisting of nine holes of play on a carpet or carpet like substance which is divided into two playing fields having point zones and on which each player, using a golf club, propells a golf ball toward the highest designated point zone in order to obtain the highest number of points over the nine hole course.
This specially designed Indoor Golf Course has nine holes of various distances, two fairways, two greens, two targets, rough, several sand traps, a water hazard and a scoring system to numerically evaluate each individual shot.
One feature of the target zone comprising scoring system is the three concentric rings and an egg shaped elongated center to represent the putting cup.
The scoring system utilizes point values regardless of where ones ball comes to rest. Minus two points for a ball hit completely off the carpet course. Minus one point for a ball hit into a sand trap. Zero points for a ball hit anywhere on the course not otherwise indicated by a specific number. One point for a ball hit on to the one point zone which is slightly larger than the entire green. Two points for a ball hit on the green but not on the target. These points for a ball hit on to the red concentric ring. Four points for a ball hit on to the white concentric ring. Five points for a ball hit on to the blue concentric ring. Six points for a ball hit on to the orange egg or circular shaped center.
