URBAN GOLF !!!

I just saw an article in an in-flight magazine for URBAN GOLF. It was great to see that people are taking an interest in the sport and if they can’t get access to a real golf course or feel that some golf clubs are too snobby they just create an urban golf course through old warehouses and abandoned city areas.

They create a golf course out of tires and rubble through these deserted areas and carry just one golf club, a few squash balls and a matt or piece of astroturf from which to hit each golf shot. The squash ball can be hit with a full golf swing and also holds the same kind of performance with respect to spin and ball flights as the real golf ball without being to dangerous or traveling to far.


There are also a few clubs, World domination, Nineteenth Hole and Urban Online that people have created and the largest urban golf membership is already 170,000 registered active members belonging to World Domination. It brings new scope and prospective to the game of golf as well as giving the sport more popularity and a new design and style of play. I think it is a fantastic idea and a nice escape from the day to day golf game for me. I am looking forward to playing URBAN GOLF and to let you know how it goes.
