Questions and answers
How do you keep score in mini golf?
Count every stroke on a hole and write the number down when the ball drops. At the end, add each player's holes. The lowest total wins.
What is the stroke limit in mini golf?
Under competition rules a ball not holed after six strokes scores 7, the most one hole can cost. Casual courses set their own limit, so agree it before the first putt.
Is a crazy golf scorecard any different?
No. Crazy golf, minigolf, adventure golf and miniature golf are names for the same putting game, so one card serves them all. Courses usually have a multiple of nine holes, which is why the card comes in 18 and 9.
What is a perfect score in mini golf?
18: a hole in one on every hole of an 18-hole course. More than a thousand players have done it on one type of competition course. On the other types it is extremely rare.
Can I use it as a mini golf scorecard template?
Yes. Type the players' names first and they print on the card, or print it blank and write them in by hand.
