Miniature Golf in China

guest11183 Hi,

I'm doing a business concept for a course I am taking at the University of Minnesota. We are considering a miniature golf course in Beijing, and we were looking for some feedback. The survey below is only 10 questions long and it would be a great help! Thanks.

Hey, Guest. The golf is a kind of expensive sport. For those ordinary people, they seldom paly it because it is to expensive. In China, the golf hasn't been very popular. Only in several big cities are several golf courses.

Hey Kevin,

What our guest is referring to is another game altogether, called MINI GOLF or 'put put golf' because it is a bit like putting on the green. You certainly cannot get any big swings in.............

While it uses a golf club and ball and there is a lot of skill it is played on a very small course and appeals mostly to children and their parents because it is quite cheap and you can have a bit of competitive fun.

Jabarootoo, is it different from Golf? I didn't hear it before. Could you give me some pics or links related to Mini Golf? I need to learn the knowledge about it. Thanks!

Hi Kevin,
It's a lot like regular golf in skills but it is played in miniature. google mini golf ' and you'll come up with a load of online games. this site at least resembles what you might find on a mini golf course. I didn't read the instructions so cannot put my first shot up the little hill on the second hole since I don;t know how to increase the impact of the swing. I'll try again.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Jabarootoo. I'll check out that website. For online miniature golf games, I might have a try. I just played Snooker online.
