New in the Crazy Golf Museum

Update on new donations to the Crazy Golf Museum.


Our friend and minigolf rival Pat Sheridan has made some superb donations to the Crazy Golf Museum's archives with a selection of scorecards and coupons from his recent travels as a tournament player and minigolf reviewer at the Putting Penguin.

It's always wonderful to see - and share - minigolf ephemera from around the world and Pat has donated a number of marvellous items to the Museum's collection over the years.

The latest haul from the USA come from his visit to Myrtle Beach in South Carolina, USA - a real hotbed of minigolf courses - where Pat competed in the 2017 USPMGA Master's tournament. There are also some items from Missouri and Florida.

Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf

Finding out about the Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf course in Branson, Missouri.

It's always brilliant finding out about new and interesting minigolf courses around the world. At the end of last year I spotted Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf in Branson, Missouri. It's another course we'd love to play on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

As you play the Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf course you take 18-steps to becoming a Hollywood Star!

From being discovered to earning a star on Hollywood Boulevard, your wise-cracking agent, Marty McBooster, guides your journey around the course with hilarious words of advice at each hole. Finally, you’ll learn the height of your fame at the Star-o-Meter – are you overexposed or legendary?

I love seeing BIG features and obstacles on miniature golf courses

The course layout lets you experience the landmarks of Hollywood, including Grauman's Chinese Theatre, Capitol Records and the Hollywood Bowl. You get to play minigolf in, around, and through palm trees, parties and paparazzi and discover Hot Tips about becoming a star at every hole.

We love playing unique courses with fun themes and the Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf looks like a perfect spot to play, grab some great snaps and an all round memorable experience.

We've played a few minigolf courses in the US - in Denver and Las Vegas. I also got my face on the Wall of Fame for winning a tournament at the Putt Park in Vegas - we'd love to get on the Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf Walk of Fame too!

Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf is located in the Hollywood Entertainment Center on Highway 76 in Branson, Missouri. Check out the Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf website, Facebook Page, Twitter and Google+ for more information.
