Tiger Woods simply would not be playing this one would he, well he most likely will be at the moment because of the fact he cannot play the real thing.
Believe it or not there have been a lot of arguments around who technically brought in the whole idea for crazy golf but it was first seen in 1867 in St Andrews Golf Club. This 18 hole putting course is still there today but because women were not really allowed to play golf back in these times they were often simply told to go and play on the 18 hole putting greens.
These very slowly started to pop up more and more as the years went by and eventually it was customary for many American as well as British hotels to have these miniature-sized golf courses and they were using the same designs as ones that could be found in the real ones. The mini putter was there of course but on top of this there was a very small driver too.
North Carolina was the very first location of the mini golf course that we would recgonise today and this was formed in 1916. Once the artificial green had started to be used it really kicked off and it became accessible everywhere and by the late 1920s there were over 150 courses on the rooftops of New York alone!
Although you can’t load up those marine batteries and leisure batteries and put them in your mini golf trolleys you can actually have a golf trolley just for the putters that people use to play the sport.
All the major destinations in the world will have at least one mini golf course no including huge places such as Disney World in Florida, it just goes to show how popular the game has become.
