Longwedge: Wow, and here I am just playing regular stinking golf and hitting my own ball...I'm so behind the times.
LW - not sure whether this was meant to be a sarcastic comment or whatnot, but no matter. Just thought I'd share the info. But if you do ever decide to play it, don't play it with your best friends... you could very quickly fall out!
My most favourite game of golf - Cross Country Golf. You play a tee shot from one tee... to a green not part of the same hole. So, you're hitting in all sorts of directions, over trees, water, possibly even greenstaff sheds etc. You can forget yardage books and yardage markers, it's all about your own judgement, course management, skill and feel. Can be dangerous and you have to close the whole course for the comp, but if organised correctly it is GREAT fun.
