Abstract Apparatus for playing within a confined area a golf game utilizing a standard golf ball and standard golf clubs comprising a horizontal teeing surface of predetermined size, a vertical wall positioned a predetermined distance in front of said teeing surface for rebounding a golf ball driven from said teeing surface toward said rebound means, a ceiling surface extending from the vertical wall towards the teeing surface, a landing surface of predetermined positioned for receiving the ball after it rebounds from the wall or ceiling surface, and a golf cup depressed in said landing surface, said landing surface being a continuation of said teeing surface in the direction of said rebound means. The vertical wall and ceiling surface each include a centrally located strip of material designed to rebound a golf ball and give an appreciation of ball spin. The strip material could be one having either a high coeffecient of friction, such as sponge rubber, or a low coefficient of friction, such as Teflon.

Apparatus for playing within a confined area a golf game utilizing a standard golf ball and standard golf clubs comprising a rear horizontal teeing surface of predetermined size defined by upstanding grass-like bristles, a vertical wall, a horizontal ceiling surface extending from the upper edge of said vertical wall toward said teeing surface, said vertical wall and ceiling surface each being adapted to rebound all golf balls driven thereagainst and prevent the passage of any golf ball therethrough and each including a centrally located strip of material extending the length thereof, said vertical wall being positioned a predetermined distance in front of said teeing surface and each of said strips having substantially greater rebound properties than the respective wall and ceiling surfaces on either side thereof, a putting surface defined by grass-like bristles and of predetermined area positioned for receiving the ball after it rebounds from said vertical wall or ceiling surface, and a golf cup depressed in said putting surface intermediate said teeing surface and vertical wall and located along a straight line extending from the center of said teeing surface to the center of said strip on said vertical wall, said putting surface defining a substantially continuous surface of bristles extending from said teeing surface to said vertical wall, and said vErtical wall extending continuously upward from the adjacent edge of said putting surface whereby no golf balls can pass beneath said vertical wall.
