67 courses visited and played so far!

Since 30th September 2006 I have played a total of 67 ‘Minigolf’ courses!

These have included Minigolf, Miniature Golf, Crazy Golf, Adventure Golf, Putting Greens, Eternit, Beton, Swedish Felt and a Pitch & Putt or two.

Shooting Shacks – Hayling Island

After a fruitless search in Portsmouth, Southsea, Shanklin, Sandown and Ryde on the Isle of Wight two Shooting Shacks were found in Hayling Island’s Funland.

They were:

The Hillbilly Shooting Gallery




And The Spooky Shoot (which seems to be a Japanese Import!)

Hayling Island Scarecrow Festival

Following the completion of the Minigolf Tour of Hampshire & the Isle of Wight we explored the excellent Seaside resort of Hayling Island which was holding a Scarecrow Festival.

In our Scarecrow searching, in-between rides at Funland, Crazy Golf, Stone Skipping and Steam Train Riding, we managed to spot 30 of the potential 246 that have been created and listed in the Scarecrow Trail Sheet.

The Hayling Island Scarecrow Festival is running from 26th July to 9th August.
