Good day
Just a note to introduce you to my golf related putting game, and find it a tentative place within your grey matter storage area.
Somewhat different to other charity fundraisers and events, I intend mine to be an ongoing event, in which participants compete for a considerble purse, and where there is no guarantee that the purse will be secured by a golf professional.
During events here, in which golfers and non-golfers have participated, the results were rather amazing. Whilst most are won by golfers, quite a few (I guestimate 40% of the games) have actually been won by people completely unfamiliar with golf.
The skill needed is purely putting - not mini-golf style tricky putts, but realistic golf putting.
The challenge is not the typical Million Dollar single stroke 60-150 foot putt, but real competitive putting over 6 or 18 holes.
Playing a game requires just two players, and a game takes around 12 minutes for a 6-hole round, or 30 minutes for an 18-hole round.
Games and challenges played here to date have been good fun for all involved - golfers as well as non-players of the real game.
I don't want to bore you with details at this time, but if there is someone who would like to take a careful look at what my game involves, please contact me and I will provide you all the answers available presently.
You may care to have a look at my temporary website - http://www.puttkew.co.za
Also let me wish you a great 2011 with this golfbelles initiative - it seems a fine concept. I guess I'd better find you a local participant here or the Kiwi's will outdo us.
Have a happy day
