I just started playing a little golf on a 12x6 snooker table with a few of the older gentlemen in the corner of our pool room. Man what a game! Reminds me a lot of one pocket! Lots of moves and multiple rail banks and kicks to learn.

I guess my question is regarding the fact that I cannot find any good video or strategic info on the game? Is the game dead?

Thanks in advance.

Its not dead, but its never been a game that videos have been made about.

See if you can keep playing them cheap and learn. 5-1 is a good cheap game to learn on, 10-1 starts getting a little more serious. 20-2 on up, guys are really trying to win.

It's played a lot in Tulsa. Usually 3-4 handed, $5&1 or $10-2. Been some good heads-up lately at $300-30. 9ball's kinda died around here, it's all one-hole or golf.

I always wished that someone filmed the Hardtimes golf game as I miss being out there to watch it in person.

Golf

There is some video of Shane @ Hardtimes playing golf on the big table, but the camera work is tough to watch. Table plays pretty tough! Should be able to find it pretty easy on Youtube, if not ill post a link.

Golf has always enjoyed a popular following, but only in certain areas..The larger cities, Denver, Alburqurque, Phoenix, and LA, have always had a pretty regular 'ring golf crowd'! Other smaller places appear from time to time..Some really catch on, and a very regular golf game will emerge!

There are so many different rule sets, and they can vary greatly, from room to room, often within the same city! When played correctly, it can be every bit as challenging as any game on green felt, especially 'head up' action. Very few video's (that I know of) exist! Before I took up one pocket, golf was my favorite game..Still is, but the chances to play, have always been few, and far between..Whereas, 1P and 8,9,10 ball can be found anywhere..Good luck finding more info!
