A look at a Carl Carmoni Mini-putt Trading Card from 2016.
Being stuck at home during lockdown I've had a bit more time to look back through my minigolf collection and the Crazy Golf Museum's vaults.
One of the nice items to share is this Carl Carmoni Mini-putt Trading Card from 2016.

Mini-putt courses are similar in appearance to Putt-Putt courses however they have distinct standardised hole designs and are particular to Canada.
"Mini-putt" is the Québécois term for the game of minigolf, thanks largely to the popularity of the Quebec cable sports show 'Défi Mini-putt' (Mini-putt Challenge) in the 1970s and 80s.
Check out a compilation of hole-in-ones Carl Carmoni scored on the Défi Mini-putt show.

Carl Carmoni is a player after my own heart as he reacts with a triumphant shout of "BIRDIE!" every time he hits an ace. I'm known to shout "YEE-HA!" when I score a hole-in-one in competition play.
Check out Carl Carmoni's website and Mini-putt for more information.
My friend, minigolf team-mate and rival Jon Drexler also has a trading card. You can see that card in my blog post from 2013.
