Played with standard soccer balls and 21" diameter holes in the ground, almost entirely, intentionally, on pre-existing traditional golf courses.
Typical foot golfer can kick a ball ~65 yards, less than 200 feet.
FootgolfTM seems to be a heavily funded, intentional effort to capture a new, hybrid sport and confine it to traditional golf course properties. The same game, without the trademark, has a number of names: Foot Golf, Soccer Golf, and Football Golf. Those who own the trademark are discouraging stand-alone foot golf courses not on a pre-existing traditional golf course.
I can see disc golf courses where this fits right in and am designing two, right now. What do you think?
