I did a trend because I could. #minigolf

Minigolf was also instrumental in the desegregation efforts in Washington DC (true story - look up East Potomac Minigolf)

Minigolf. Putt Putt is a registered company but people commonly refer to minigolf as Putt Putt due to the wide popularity of the franchise in the South (though it is dieing now). The worldwide term is "minigolf". (We are from Connecticut but sit on the @worldminigolfsport.bsky.social board).

One of our favorites so far!

The Swiss did well at the Minigolf World Championships this year in Germany too!

In a just world, this would be at the entrance to a massive minigolf park.

Amazing time over the past 10 days in Germany for the @worldminigolfsport.bsky.social Minigolf World Championships. Sad we have to go home but we have our own tournaments to play and run!

Thank you for being great hosts! It was amazing to come from the USA with the @worldminigolfsport.bsky.social for this tournament!

The overall name of the sport/game is "minigolf". Putt Putt is a specific brand of minigolf often found in the Southern US. Many people use "Putt Putt" to refer to minigolf because they are from there or have heard others use it given that brand was very popular in the 50s-90s.

4 gold medals so far!

You can check ours out too. Or @worldminigolfsport.bsky.social YT has stuff from international competitions.

Space themed minigolf hole that has three options for a score (1, 2 and 3). It plays a bit like skeeball and the sign says you get 5 chances to score. If you don't, you get a 5.

Fun idea for a hole but the execution needs a little work.

You have no idea what the public/children are capable of. Turf replacement also has to happen more often than you think depending on climate.

Given 1/2 our team is an accountant. Yes. Now.

It's taken us a couple of years but finally getting to one of the last courses we played in Texas when we were there in 2022. We really enjoyed Putt Pub and definitely need to make another trip down there!

Couldn't be happier that we play a sport where the top prizes don't give a shit what gender you are.

Don't be fooled, there is more than enough joy and understanding of the mirth of minigolf in the competitive side of the sport. This is just one form of the pro side.

This isn't the only type of pro minigolf either. Just one of 4 internationally recognized course types.

There's space for both, trust us on this.

This is what real pro athletes look like. Minigolf on ESPN this summer. Just played the tournament yesterday.

We use it as a good way to keep our skills fresh on rainy days or in the winter.

The 🔥 on a 90+ degree night was probably not needed.

Picture of an adventure style minigolf course at twilight with pink in the clouds in thr distance. It is a tropical themed course with thatch roof huts in the background.

It was hot but damn it was a pretty night for minigolf.

Woo! Safari Golf.

Super impressed you got the worldwide body correct. Also, love watching this episode before tournaments.

It's useful in bad weather and up here in the North, keeping up practice all winter long. The Monster courses are some of the best versions of them. The pub/minigolf scene like Swingers is another good version of indoor minigolf.
