Description

Game is a 9-hole round of golf where each hole is laid out on a 20" x 26" card. Players select their club and, using a standard deck of cards, draw one and consult a result chart. Using the result and a special ruler, players move their ball markers along the hole, including possibly slicing or hooking the ball (approach shots do not conform to the slice and hook requirements though).

Each hole has standard features of a regulation golf hole, including out-of-bounds, water, and sand traps. Hitting from the rough or from other course features may require the pull of an additional card to incur a "penalty hazard" (a modifier to your shot).

All in all, the game simulates a real game of golf with simple gameplay but decisions you would be face with in a regular game as well.
