Abstract

1. Installation, set up especially in a grass-grown area and destined for a ball-game similar to golf, with a number of tees (1 to 18) and targets called greens (21 to 26), where - by the ball, by means of a golf club, is driven from a tee as closely as possible towards a green ; whereby a number of tees is destined for one green, the distances between the tees and the corresponding green varying at least partially and with at least one green equipped with concentric circles (28) in the style of a target, characterised in that the greens (21 to 26) equipped with concentric target circles are arranged adjacent to each other in the middle of the whole installation, with the tees (1 to 18) being positioned around these greens.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine in einem insbesondere mit Gras bewachsenen Gelände angeordnete Anlage für ein golfähnliches Ballspiel, mit einer Mehrzahl von Abschlägen und Zielen, den Greens, wobei mittels eines Golfschlägers von einem Abschlag aus der Ball möglichst nahe an ein Green herangeschlagen wird, eine Mehrzahl von Abschlägen einem Green zugeordnet ist, die Entfernungen zwischen den Abschlägen und dem zugehörigen Green wenigstens teilweise verschieden sind und mindestens ein Green mit konzentrischen Zielkreisen nach Art einer Zielscheibe versehen ist.The invention relates to a system for a golf-like ball game arranged in a grass-covered area, with a plurality of tees and targets, the greens, the golf club being used to hit the ball as close as possible to a green from a tee A plurality of tees is assigned to a green, the distances between the tees and the associated green are at least partially different and at least one green is provided with concentric target circles in the manner of a target.

Ein Nachteil des bekannten Golfspieles ist, daß eine Anlage hiefür einen sehr großen Geländebedarf hat. Es wurde daher schon versucht, golfähnliche Ballspiele zu schaffen, die einen geringeren Platzbedarf haben. So ist in der US-A 4 145 053 ein Spiel beschrieben, bei dem sich parallel zueinander vier längliche Spielzonen verschiedener Länge erstrecken. Jede Spielzone besitzt ein Green und es kann auf dieses Green von verschiedenen Entfernungen gespielt werden. Drei der Greens sind mit konzentrischen Zielkreisen versehen. Die bekannte Anlage erlaubt ihrem Aufbau nach nicht ein Spiel zu spielen, das dem Golf sehr nahe kommt, und zwar schon deshalb, weil durch die geraden Bahnen jenes Gefühl der Weitläufigkeit - und Freiheit fehlt, das dem Golfspiel eigen ist.A disadvantage of the known golf game is that a system for it has a very large area requirement. It has therefore already been attempted to create golf-like ball games that require less space. A game is described in US Pat. No. 4,145,053 in which four elongated play zones of different lengths extend parallel to one another. Each game zone has a green and you can play on this green from different distances. Three of the greens have concentric target circles. The structure of the well-known system does not allow a game to be played that comes very close to golf, if only because the straight paths lack the feeling of space - and freedom that is inherent in the game of golf.

In der US-PS 4 063 738 ist eine Anlage der eingangs genannten Art beschrieben, bei der ein mit Zielkreisen versehenes Green am Ende eines Spielfeldes angeordnet ist. Ein zweites Green ist, völllig getrennt vom ersten Green, am Ende eines zweiten Spielfeldes angeordnet. Die jedem Green zugeordneten Abschläge sind jeweils in einem Bereich von maximal 90° vor dem entsprechenden Green gelegen. Obzwar als Ziel angegeben wird, daß bei kleinerem Platzbedarf ein normales Golfspiel imitiert werden soll, wird dieses Ziel auch bei dieser Anlage deshalb nicht erreicht, weil durch die fast kegelbahnartige Anordnung das dem Golfspiel eigene Gefühl der Freiheit und Weitläufigkeit nicht vermittelt werden kann.US Pat. No. 4,063,738 describes an installation of the type mentioned at the outset, in which a green provided with target circles is arranged at the end of a playing field. A second green, completely separate from the first green, is arranged at the end of a second playing field. The tees assigned to each green are each within a range of a maximum of 90 ° in front of the corresponding green. Although it is stated as the goal that a normal golf game should be imitated with a smaller footprint, this goal is not achieved with this system either, because the almost bowling-like arrangement means that the game's own feeling of freedom and spaciousness cannot be conveyed.

Es ist daher das Ziel vorliegender Erfindung, eine Anlage der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, mit der es möglich ist, auf wesentlich kleinerem Gelände das bekannte Golfspiel so zu simulieren, daß ein ebensolches Ergebnis erzielt und Erlebnis vermittelt werden kann wie beim Golfspiel. Erreicht wird dies dadurch, daß die mit konzentrischen Zielkreisen versehenen Greens nebeneinander liegend in der Mitte der Anlage angeordnet und um diese Greens herum die Abschläge gelegen sind.It is therefore the aim of the present invention to create a system of the type mentioned at the outset, with which it is possible to simulate the known golf game on much smaller terrain in such a way that the same result can be achieved and experience can be imparted as in the game of golf. This is achieved in that the greens provided with concentric target circles are arranged side by side in the middle of the system and the tees are located around these greens.

Zufolge der Anordnung der Abschläge um die in der Mitte liegenden Greens herum ist der Platzbedarf weitaus geringer als beim herkömmlichen Golfspiel, es geht aber trotzdem das Gefühl der Weitläufigkeit nicht verloren. Durch die Konzentration des Spielgeschehens ist das Spiel zuschauer- und mediengerechter, wobei auch die Möglichkeit einer Flutlichtanlage gegeben ist. Naturgemäß ist eine erfindungsgemäße Anlage auch pflegeleichter als bekannte Anlagen.Due to the arrangement of the tees around the greens lying in the middle, the space requirement is far less than in the conventional golf game, but the feeling of spaciousness is not lost. Due to the concentration of the game, the game is more spectator and media-friendly, whereby there is also the possibility of a floodlight system. Naturally, a system according to the invention is also easier to maintain than known systems.

Um ein auf einer erfindungsgemäßen Anlage durchzuführendes Spiel weitgehend den Spielbedingungen des normalen Golfes anzunähern, ist es zweckmäßig, wenn in an sich bekannter Weise mindestens ein Teil der Abschläge auf einem um die Greens umlaufenden Wall, vorzugsweise verschiedener Höhe angeordnet sind.In order to largely approximate a game to be carried out on a system according to the invention to the playing conditions of normal golf, it is expedient if, in a manner known per se, at least some of the tees are arranged on a wall surrounding the greens, preferably of different heights.

Nachstehend ist die Erfindung anhand eines in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher beschrieben. Dabei zeigt Fig. 1 in Draufsicht eine erfindungsgemäße Anlage und Fig. 2 stellt in vergrößertem Maßstab ein mit konzentrischen Zielkreisen versehenes Green dar.The invention is described below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. 1 shows a system according to the invention in a top view, and FIG. 2 shows a green provided with concentric target circles on an enlarged scale.

Gemäß Fig. 1 sind in einem Gelände, das etwa 200 x 300 m groß sein kann, achtzehn Abschläge 1 bis 18 auf einem Wall 19 angeordnet. Die Höhe des Walles 19 ist zweckmässig etwas verschieden und kann 2 bis 3 m betragen. Der Wall 19 und damit die Abschläge 1 bis 18 sind um ein Greenareal 20 herum angeordnet, in dem im Beispiel sechs Zielgreens 21 bis 26 angeordnet sind. Der Aufbau des Greenareals entspricht etwa dem der Green beim normalen Golf, es ist nach hinten etwas ansteigend, mit Greenrasen bepflanzt und besitzt wellige Formen.According to FIG. 1, eighteen tees 1 to 18 are arranged on a wall 19 in an area which can be approximately 200 x 300 m in size. The height of the wall 19 is expediently somewhat different and can be 2 to 3 m. The wall 19 and thus the discounts 1 to 18 are arranged around a green area 20, in which six target screens 21 to 26 are arranged in the example. The structure of the green area corresponds approximately to that of the green in normal golf, it rises slightly towards the rear, is planted with green grass and has undulating shapes.

Jedem Green sind mehrere Abschläge zugeordnet, es ergeben sich demnach verschiedene Schlagdistanzen. Die Schlagdistanzen sollten so differenziert sein, daß für alle Schläger eines Golfsets eine Distanz vorhanden ist.Several tees are assigned to each green, so there are different striking distances. The stroke distances should be so differentiated that there is a distance for all clubs in a golf set.

Insbesondere aus Fig. 2 ist der Aufbau der Zielgreens ersichtlich. Demnach sind um das Loch 27 herum konzentrisch Zielkreise 28 vorgesehen, die mit zweckmässig weißer Farbe markiert sind. Der Abstand der Zielkreise voneinander richtet sich nach der Schlagdistanz und kann etwa von 2,5 m bei einer Schlagdistanz von 100 bis 30 m, bis zu 3,5 m bei einer Schlagdistanz von 220 bis 160 m liegen. Der Durchmesser des Loches 27 ist zweckmässig doppelt so groß wie der Durchmesser beim herkömmlichen Golf demnach 20,8 cm.The structure of the target screens can be seen in particular from FIG. Accordingly, target circles 28 are provided concentrically around the hole 27, which are marked with appropriate white color. The distance between the target circles depends on the striking distance and can be about 2.5 m for a striking distance of 100 to 30 m, up to 3.5 m for a striking distance of 220 to 160 m. The diameter of the hole 27 is expediently twice as large as the diameter in the conventional Golf, therefore 20.8 cm.

Wie sich aus Fig. 1 ergibt, ist dem Abschlag 13 ein Wasserloch 29 zugeordnet. Ferner ist zwischen den Abschlägen 9 und 10 ein Puttinggreen 30 angeordnet, das zweckmässig achtzehn Löcher aufweist. Der Durchmesser der Löcher im Puttinggreen kann gleich dem beim herkömmlichen Golf sein.1, the tee 13 is assigned a water hole 29. Furthermore, a putting green 30 is arranged between the tees 9 and 10, which expediently has eighteen holes. The diameter of the holes in the putting green can be the same as that of conventional golf.

Auf einer erfindungsgemässen Anlage kann nach folgenden Regeln gespielt werden:

  • Pro Abschlag dürfen von dem markierten Abschlägen 1 bis 18 zwei Bälle pro Spieler geschlagen werden. Es ist der Abschlag sowohl vom Boden als auch mittels Tee erlaubt. Wird der Ball ins Loch geschlagen, zählt dies null Punkte, liegt er zwischen einem der konzentrischen Kreise, können eins bis fünf Punkte erreicht werden, liegt er außerhalb des äußersten Kreises, werden sechs Punkte gezählt. Nach dem Spiel vom Abschlag 9 aus werden die Bälle am Puttinggreen geschlagen, wobei die Anzahl der erreichten Schlagzahl der Putts, über achtzehn Löcher zu dem erreichten Score dazugezählt werden.
The following rules can be played on a system according to the invention:
  • From the marked tees 1 to 18, two balls per player may be hit per tee. Teeing off from the ground and tea is permitted. If the ball is hit into the hole, this counts zero points, if it is between one of the concentric circles, one to five points can be achieved, if it is outside the outermost circle, six points are counted. After the game from tee 9, the balls are hit on the putting green, the number of hits achieved by the putts, over eighteen holes being added to the score achieved.

Nach achtzehn gespielten Löchern und achtzehn geputteten Löchern ist ein Score erreicht und das Spiel beendet.After eighteen holes played and eighteen holes putted, a score is reached and the game ends.

Rechnet man dem guten Golfer jeweils zwei Punkte für das Zielgolf, d.i. das Spielen von den Abschlägen 1 bis 18 aus, und jeweils zwei Putts pro Loch beim Puttinggolf, so ergibt sich ein Total von vier Schlägen pro Loch, somit für achtzehn Löcher zweiundsiebzig Schläge, was exakt dem Scratch-Score beim Golfsport entspricht.If you give the good golfer two points each for the target golf, i.e. playing from tees 1 to 18, and two putts per hole in putting golf, there is a total of four shots per hole, thus for eighteen holes seventy-two shots, which corresponds exactly to the scratch score in golf.

Die Regeln des auf einer erfindungsgemässen Anlage zu spielenden Golfes können naturgemäss etwas abgeändert werden, auch kann die Anzahl der Abschläge und auch die Anzahl der Greens verändert werden. Es wäre z.B. eine Anlage mit neun Abschlägen und einem Zielgreen möglich.The rules of golf to be played on a course according to the invention can of course be changed somewhat, and the number of tees and also the number of greens can also be changed. It would be e.g. a facility with nine discounts and a target green possible.
