There are some ways to play this old game that have proven to enhance a golf experience by adding an element of risk - and if you ultimately come out on top, possible financial reward. The good news is that none of these common golf games have anything to do with ability. They're simply designed to create action on every hole, which makes them much more interesting than standard stroke-play (add up your score at the end of the round) golf. In addition, when you play them you'll get to use some really fun words like moochey, stinky, wolf, slop, skin, pig, press, pick-or-pass, flip and flop.

The Pocket Pro doesn't attmep to explain every version of every golf game - just those that our experience has taught us to be most common. You don't need a vague understanding of lots of games. You need a thorough understanding of only a couple for every size group.

The Pocket Pro will provide you with the tools needed to more thoroughly enjoy golf with your family and friends. We're sure you'll soon agree that orchestrating a new game and keeping the score isn't nearly as complicated as you ight have previously thought.
