BRIDGE, STICK, TUNNEL AND BOX: A GOLF GAME FOR PUTTERS

DRAWN BY OUR SPECIAL ARTIST A.C.MICHAEL

AT THE GARDEN PARTY: AN EXCITING MOMENT OF GOFSTACLE

Gofstacle is played with golf balls and putters. Four balls go to the set and these are coloured like croquet balls. The obstacles to be negotiated include hoops, rings, a tunnel, a bridge and a box which has to be entered up an incline. It is played like golf croquet, and may also be played as is golf, the obstacles taking the place of holes. It is claimed for it that it is calculated to improve putting. Its popularity is undoubted.
