Description[]
Gopher Ball is very similar to golf and includes the same equipment, such as golf clubs, golf balls and golf tees, and holes with flags. For the game, at least two players can compete against one another.[1]
The objective of the game is to play a golf ball with a golf club from the teeing ground into the hole in a single stroke. It is allowed to hit the golfball with the club in both midair and on the ground. Accomplishing this feat will earn the player one point. If the player is unable to make it to the hole, they will have to start over again.[1]
