An outdoor stick and ball game. Pitch and Putt is a short form of golf normally played as a social game, needing only two clubs, a putter and a pitching iron or sand wedge.

Popularity
Commonly found throughout the country, Pitch and Putt is ideally suited to those learning golf.

Location
An outdoor activity that because of its much reduced course size when compared compared with golf, is often found as part of a sporting or hotel complex, who wanting to offer a golfing experience, is restricted by available space.

Age
Pitch and Putt can be played by all ages, and is especially suited to those who through age or phisical ability find it difficult to compete on the long golfing drives.

Ability
The same abilities are necessary for pitch and putt as with golf, less the stamina and driving ability that necessitates from playing on a large eighteen hole golf course.

Description
Pitch and Putt involves hitting a small hard ball (golf ball) with a stick (golf club) from a given point (a tee) into a hole, in as few hits (strokes) as possible. Pitch and putt is a much faster game than golf as all of the distance shots are missing, pitch and putt holes are rarely over one hundred meters in distance.

Potential
