I would throw in a "moon" finishing hole with deep craters and 1/6 gravity, and let them try to figure that out. 


Don't know how they would handle the short game shots, though.

Add in a crafting challenge where they have to fashion a rudimentary 6-iron that is collapsible...there's one golf ball still up there on the moon courtesy of Alan Shepard!

I had this thought too actually.


I'm less interested in facsimiles of real-world feasible holes than I am in seeing the boundaries of what virtual-world holes (and shots - I don't always need gameplay to involve playing from tee-to-bottom-of-cup) could look like.

Well, I put it in "print" here first, so I'm claiming the royalties on it, when they eventually copy it.  ;)


I'll keep my other ideas to myself, in case I want to do something with them someday.  But I'd guess there are thousands of people who would come up with something more interesting than the golf holes they are using.
