Two minigolf crocodiles, in two countries, on the same day

Playing two crocodile-themed holes in two different countries, on the same day!


On the 28th August I was playing a round of minigolf at Gator Golf at the Crocodiles of the World zoo in Brize Norton, Carterton, England. On the same day my brother Christopher and his family were 5,872 miles away playing minigolf at Khao Lak Mini Golf in Khuekkhak, Thailand.

And we both played a similar obstacle and hole where we had to putt our golf ball into a crocodile's (or alligator's) mouth!

Our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

We've now been to 1,099 miniature golf courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour to date. 1,038 of them have been in the British Isles. Combined with Christopher and his family's branch of the tour we've been to 1,152 courses in the British Isles and 21 overseas countries.

The adventure golf course is a new addition to the venue, opening earlier this summer.

There was a special summer discount offer on when I played so my round was £6.40 rather than £8. That was a nice bonus.

I scored a round of 33, with the course par listed as 43 on the scorecard.
