Eight years of the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour!

Eighth anniversary of our minigolf travels.

A big skull and green on the tricky Treasure Island Adventure Golf course in Southsea

Back on the 30 September 2006 we visited the Treasure Island Adventure Golf course on the seafront in Southsea, Hampshire and since that day we've gone on to visit 583 courses in the UK, USA, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Austria, Finland and Sweden.

Treasure Island Adventure Golf is home to two 9-hole courses - and a lucky last hole where you have to 'fire the cannon' with your putt! Something I managed on that very first visit, but seldom have on the many courses with a 'top hole' since!

The Victory Trail became the first course played on what would become the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. The next day we played the Warrior Trail.

Many thanks to Tim 'Ace Man' Davies for running MiniatureGolfer.com, everyone who has let us know about new courses out there, and all the minigolf course owners and operators keeping the game alive.
