Iona Takes on "Park Golf" in Japan! | Inside The Game | Golfing World

[@wntfan656]

I have traveled and lived in Japan and can attest to Park Golf being very fun and accessible. Once you have the equipment to play, you play for free because all the courses are in public parks. It is a wonderful way for older folks to stay active.

I could see this concept being a staple in every small town and big city in America, just like mini golf courses are now. Imagine the landscaping, theming and hospitality aspects you could incorporate into a "golf park" that would make it a middle ground between a real golf course and a mini golf track. It could be as cheap as mini golf and as enjoyable as regular golf. Even more advanced players could still use it as a "short game" course and actually feel like they've had some real practice.

if i had one of these at a park nearby, i'd probably be there 2-3 times a week - alone or with my kids. i REALLY want this to get going in America

Destroyer park golf in Akron ny outside buffalo. A former wrestler lived in Japan and brought it back. It's even recognized by the Japanese park golf association

seems like a pretty good way to start young kids in golf, wouldnt mind something like this with my 5 year old daughter, bet she would have a blast! Also, this looks more fun than mini golf.

Looks like a lot of fun, won’t demoralise beginners.

We play here in Brazil. It is very fun. We made a lot of friends there.

I've watched Iona on Open coverage, play with Rick Shiels on his channel, and various other programs, and she's one of the most amazing women on the planet... probably the most beautiful as well. Swoon.

This is miles ahead of pickleball

[@albandb9366]

How amazing ???!

[@petercavellini3232]

I do think though that, if your as good as the gentleman seen playing here, you’d be looking for more of a challenge, holes in one even, I guess there’ll be more courses like this?, maybe even competitions ?, certainly when your getting older you could still play in competition playing this form of Golf.
