You can hit it. This US patent uses "air screen",
It is disclosed to launch a golf ball from a tee ground or sand trap area through an air screen to a fairway.

U.S. Pat. No. 3,861,680 also proposes a game in which a player launches a golf ball from an indoor tee through an air curtain using an air curtain.

An indoor-outdoor golf game facility in accordance with an important feature of the present invention comprises a surrounding building, a putting area within the building having holes similar to a putting cup for a golf ball, and an outer edge on one side of the building. At least one golf ball striking chamber provided adjacent to the putting area, the chamber being configured to retain a plurality of golfers within the chamber in isolation from one another An uncovered outdoor fairway area is provided which extends from the golf ball striking area to the outside of the building to the golf ball striking area within the building from the golf ball striking area to the fairway area via the outer edge of the building. Are arranged so that a series of golf fairway greens are placed on each side of the fairway area. Wherein the golf green targets between a distance of about 1 to 275 yds from the ball striking area provided side by side along the way areas are arranged in succession.

According to another feature of the invention, fairway greens are arranged in irregular crossing positions on opposite sides of a fairway area extending from the golf ball striking area, some of these fairway greens being on one side of the fairway. Another fairway green is provided on the other side of the fairway area, and all the fairway greens on both sides of the fairway area are provided in an end-to-end relationship.

According to another feature of the invention, indoor and outdoor sand trap areas are provided on both sides of the putting area, golf greens are provided on both sides of the building immediately adjacent to the trap area and outside the building, and the golfer is A ball is hit from the trap in the area to the green outside the building, a sand trap is provided away from the golf ball hit area, a protective net is stretched diagonally from the opposite corners of the area in the building, and the sand trap area is a fairway. Separated from the area, it minimizes the potential for injury to golfers.

 The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.

In the drawings, reference numeral 4 denotes the entire indoor-outdoor golf game facility. The golf game facility includes a clubhouse 5, the entrance of which is shown at 6. The clubhouse may also have a food service area 7 and bathrooms 8 and 9. When entering from the entrance, there are inner walls 11 and 11, and these inner walls partition the golf play area 10. There is a pair of putting greens 12 and 13 on one side of the inner walls 11, 11. Cover these putting greens with an artificial cover to allow the player to chip shots on the artificial grass green, or to allow the player to putt on the green in a manner similar to outdoor playing conditions as described below. It is configured.

On the other side of the inner side walls 11, 11, a golf ball shot area 14 is provided. In the driver shot area 14, a series of a plurality of golf ball hitting small chambers 15 are provided side by side. These small chambers are separated from each other by a partition wall 16 and, as will be described later, "air screen".
If it is necessary to enclose and protect each compartment from all other compartments except the sides, the compartments can cover the compartments. Inside each compartment is a series of golf ball shot areas 17. These small chambers are, for example, “rough” made of artificial grass of different types, as shown in FIG.
It can be of various types with golf ball striking areas similar to various outdoor play conditions including "fairway turf" and tee shot areas. The golf ball striking area 15 is such that each compartment is separated from the adjacent compartment as a whole, and all golf play performed by the golfer in one compartment is personal.
It prevents anyone from being injured as a result of a person swinging a golf club in an adjacent cabin or as a result of a golfer striking a golf ball in an adjacent cabin. Since a series of foursomes attempt to play a golf game simultaneously in individual golf ball striking areas, it is imperative that the necessary steps are taken to protect all the safety of a golfer using total prowess. Needed for.

The golf ball striking area also has tables and chairs.
Set up 18 so golfers can have a place to score, take a break, and refresh. The interior of the golf house 5 is arranged so that the golfers can easily move within the golf house to use various equipment and to carry food from the food service area to the golf ball striking area and back. .

The club house 5 is provided with an air screen area 19 in a golf ball hit area. This area comprises a series of individual air screens 20. Each air screen 20 closes the compartment 15 to shield the golfer from the weather outside the golf house involved in the golf game played from inside the club house 5. This air screen may have a conventionally known structure.
Upon closing the clubhouse at the end of each golf day, the clubhouse 5 is also provided with a convenient sliding door closing door 21 which can be moved from the ceiling position and also on the teeing ground. What can act as a security closing door that closes the outside of the clubhouse in the area, thus stopping the air screen 20 and thereby guaranteeing the clubhouse from being illegally entered when the house is left empty. You can

In addition, the clubhouse 5 generally has an indoor sand trap 22 and an indoor-outdoor sand trap 23 within the enclosure.
Are provided. These sand traps are blocked in individual sand trap areas 22 'and 23' to protect the other golfers from swinging and hitting golfers to launch the ball from these sand traps. In addition, the air screen 20 and the sliding closing door 21 shield the inside of the club house from the weather,
Also, the clubhouse is closed as described above.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4, one of the sand traps 22
Is located inside the clubhouse and the other sand trap 23
Is partly located inside the clubhouse and partly outside the clubhouse. When using these sand traps, the golfer stands in the sand trap and places his golf ball in the sand trap chamber 22 'and
Hit 23 'in the direction of greens 24 and 25 or the fairway. Thus, golfers use the tee ground area or the golf ball striking area 14 as well as the sand traps 22 and 23 at the same time. Sand trap
Sand trap room 2 again for golfers in 22 and 23
Separated within 2'and 23 ', the golfers are striking the ball on the opposite side of the building at right angles to the direction they are striking the tee 17, so they can be played simultaneously from different golf play areas within the clubhouse. There is little or no fear that someone will be hurt as a result of the golf shot. Also, outdoor protection screen or net 34 and
A 35 is provided to prevent golf shots from reaching different play areas and to hurt golfers in golf houses or enclosed areas and outdoor play areas. These nets or fences 34 and 35, or prevent golfers from walking outside the clubhouse and into different golf play areas outside the clubhouse.

As can be seen, the golfer who launches the ball from the sand traps 22 and 23 is aiming to turn it on the side golf greens 24 and 25 or on the fairway. Flags or flag pins 26 and putting cups 27 are provided on the greens 24 and 25 so that the golfer can aim and hit the pin 26 and also roll the ball into the associated cup 27. You can put it in.

Now, in playing a golf game, a fairway 28 is located opposite the golf ball striking area 14, which can have natural or artificial turf as desired. Golf game is clubhouse fairway 28
Played exclusively from the indoor enclosed area of
Golfers are not intended to hit the ball outdoors. Depending on the orientation of the playing chamber in the clubhouse when sand traps, fairways, roughs and greens are provided outdoors, the player has an important feature of the present invention when standing in the golf ball hitting area and gazing at the fairways. Only from an indoor location by a player will in their minds believing that they are playing golf in a regular outdoor golf way.

As shown in FIG. 2, the golfer makes a tee shot or a fairway shot in the golf ball hitting area 14 or, according to the rules of the game, the tee room 15
You can make a shot directly on the green.
Further, as can be seen from the drawing, the greens 29 are provided at opposite positions on both sides of the fairway 28. A flag or flag pin 30 and a putting cup 31 are provided on these greens 29. The surface of the green can be provided with artificial grass or a grass of a convenient type as described above. These greens 29 are provided in an overlapping relationship such that the closest green with respect to the golf ball striking area overlaps the next closest green and this next closest green from the clubhouse 5 in accordance with another important feature of the invention. The greens that are farthest from each other are placed one on top of the other in a stacked relationship. In addition, the fairway 28 is a fairway hazard 32 that includes a sand trap 33 or a bunker.
Have. The fairway hazard also contains water hazards or blue colored sands similar to water hazards, as shown in FIG. 2 and other figures. On the other side of the fairway 28 beyond the green and traps is a so-called "rough" or rough area, which is labeled "rough". In addition, the rough line between the "fairway" and the "rough" runs along both sides of the fairway.
Marked by 37 and 38 (see Figure 2).
If the golfer hits the ball roughly from the tee,
Next, the golfer hits a ball from one of the rough-like artificial turf areas in the golf ball hitting area to one of the greens according to the game rules described below. In FIG. 1, a “tee” shot or a “drive” shot is indicated by 39,
The "fairway" shot is shown at 40 and the "green" shot is shown at 41.

Next, other features of the present invention will be further described with respect to the following "buildings" and "golf courses".

Building 1. The play booth has air doors and is about 12 feet wide and about 15 feet high. The depth should be sufficient so that one player can relax while the other three players are hitting the ball. Komuro is constructed to protect privacy and is netted to catch missed balls. Another purpose of the chamber is to isolate the player and give the player the feeling of being alone on the golf course.

2. Nets and fences extend diagonally from both corners of the clubhouse on one side of the building. The net or fence acts to limit the so-called "hook" and "slice" balls to indicate the limit of hits within the playing area. Further, by moving from one room of the building to another room, it is possible to change the approach shot to the green and perform various shots toward the green.

3. The mat (used to hit the ball) should be as close as possible to the air curtain so that when hitting the ball, the golfer feels as if he / she is playing golf in an open space rather than in the building. .

4. Sand areas are provided at both ends of the building, one end for deep sand shots and the other sand area for shallow sand shots. The air curtain door is preferably provided in front of the edge of the clubhouse to allow the golfer to make a fairway sand bunker shot or a green bunker shot.

5. The building can be arranged in a mountain shape and left and right protruding parts including a golf ball hitting area can be provided as required.

6. Outer and inner greens are artificial grass similar to "Omni Green" (registered trademark).

Some of the greens are short approach shots,
Can make chips and wedge shots. Indoor greens can be made to change their shape and hall position to change their position shots from time to time.

8. Nine holes can be played from one room and the subsequent nine balls can be played from another room, which allows different types of shots to be made to differently visible holes for outdoor golf. Can be similar to a course.

9. “Frog hair” turf is planted around the indoor green to allow short tips.

Golf Course 1. The golf course can preferably be 300 by 150 yards.

2. The golf course is constructed in the same way as a regular golf course, with distance markings along the "fairways" and / or "roughs" to indicate the distance of the golf shots made by the Foursome players from the booth or room. Be helpful in making measurements.

3. Make the building where the golfer hits the ball rise above the ground to make it easier to see the light of the ball (green on) and to measure the distance.

4. The greens on each side are alternately of the same size, so that play on one side ends and play on the other side begins. This allows golfers to play shots with a distance of 275 yards to 1 yard.

5. The green is inclined so that its far side is higher than its front side. The green can be natural or artificial grass (sand dried green). The green is heated by an electric heating pad (such as is used in automobile driveways etc.) and has a sensing pad such that when the ball hits the green its position is shown on the screen in the room. The player selects the green monitor by the selection switch in the room, and for example, when the No. 4 green is targeted, the golfer can turn on the No. 4 monitor.

6. The green will have a hole at the planned length and the size of the green will be displayed and the distance can be calculated by these and other landmarks (as done by the "Proscard" 150 yard marker etc.). it can. Also,
The fairey's grass is mowed and every 20 yards a different shade of green is provided to further aid in measuring distance.

7. Create hazards with natural or blue sand.

8. Sand hazards and water hazards can be provided in various forms.

Playing the Game Green is very similar to a regular green, as the new plot is designed. The green is preferably tilted so that the ball has a tendency to retain its position on the green as it strikes the green surface. It is also preferable to cover the surface of the green with sand so that the ball will retain its position when hitting the green and will not bounce on the green.

Sand green can also be used as a type of green other than natural grass or artificial grass. Artificial turf is used for indoor greens, it has the same properties as turf green and can be adjusted to slow or speed the putt, and players can chip shots onto the artificially treated green. Or a player can putt after turning on an artificially surfaced green.

Indoor golf greens can be constructed from synthetic resin materials of suitable properties such that the pin positions on the green can be changed by closing the holes as is done with regular outdoor greens. In addition, by spreading sand on a synthetic resin carpet, you can change the putting characteristics of the green as well as the regular outdoor green, which creates a slippery green and you can see the putting characteristics on a regular golf course. It can be changed for each hole.

To play the game, the golfer scores card 36
Using (see FIG. 9), for example, when playing "Hole 3", first, a tee shot 42 from the tee, a green area having a similar golf green with a golf pin standing or a distant target. Fly the ball to a distance like 250 yards towards. The first hole is laid out on the golf card as a hole at a distance of 450 yards, so the correct shot is after hitting the ball in the middle of the fairway rather than the green, then the second
Or it is necessary to perform the fairway shot 43 from the middle of the so-called fairway. This shot is made from the same tee that made the first shot, but from a different part of the tee where the "fairway" turf is similar as described above. These tees have artificial surfaces with different layers, one lie giving rise to different lie similar to a tee sit, and the other lie similar to the lie golf fur has on fairway shots. , And yet another lie is similar to the so-called "Rafray". The golfer hits the third shot 44 towards the green and believes that shot should almost complete a 450 yard hole at the distance the ball flies. Therefore, if the ball turns on the green, the golfer goes to the green area in the building and has his ball on the green at the same distance from the golf cup as the ball turned on by the shot towards the outdoor green above. Putt. In this way, the scorecard 36 requirements are satisfied, as shown in "Hall 3". If the second shot hits the area of the trap, a different part of the building,
Go to the so-called sand trap area. Trap area 22 and
22 'are at the corners of the clubhouse on both ends of the tee. Next, the golfer takes a third shot in the trap area 22 or
Start at 22 'and hit the ball towards a similar green 24 or 26 outside the building adjacent to the sudtrap area described above. If the ball hits the green, go to the green area in the clubhouse and put the ball into the hole as you would on a regular golf course. After striking from the sand trap to the green to determine the condition of the putt the player has to make, the golfer almost remembers the distance from the ball to the pin. The golfer then goes to the green inside the building and places the ball on the green away from the pin at a distance approximately equal to the distance from the on position on the green to the pin of the ball hit from the sand trap to the green, Put the ball from that position towards the cup. When the foursome reaches, for example, "hole 8", it may play the hole in the same manner as described above for the other holes. For the purposes of illustration, in "Hall 8" the golfer must first hit the tee shot 45, after which he announces that the ball will fly 250 yards into the center of the fairway. The golfer then knows from the golf card that the hole is 475 yards. The golfer calculates in his head that he has 225 yards left to the green. The golfer then strikes the fairway shot at 46, aiming at the green 225 yards off the tee. This second shot flew only 175 yards.
The golfer then calculates that he has 175 yards plus 250 yards in his head, 425 yards, leaving 50 yards to the green. As a result, the golfer hits the third shot 45 toward the green about 50 yards away from the tee and turns the ball on the green. This allows the golfer to meet the requirements of "Hall 8" on the scorecard 36, then go to the green in the clubhouse and measure the distance between the ball and the flag and the cup turned on by the third shot 47 in "Hall 8". Place the other ball on the green in the clubhouse at approximately equal distance, away from the flag and the cup. The golfer puts the ball in and holes it out, then totals the number of hits and writes the score on the score card. Golfers determine their handicap in the same way that they calculate their handicap on a regular golf course.

The greens along the fairway outside the building all have flags, and five flags are shown in the drawing. The position of each flag is known. Graphs that golfers can refer to help golfers know the exact distance from the tee to each flag. This is important for golfers, as they can roughly know the distance of the ball they hit when they hit the tee shot or missed second shot, which allows them to hit the third shot towards the green. For example, if you hit a distance of 150 yards with the first shot and a distance of 200 yards with the second shot in a 450-yard hole, you can calculate that the golfer has 100 yards left for the third shot. This gives the golfer a third shot. A third shot will turn the ball on the green as desired, but if it does fall into the trap otherwise, it will go through several steps as described above. The player then continues to play the next hole from the same room and from the same golf ball striking area. Similarly, after playing the first 9 holes, the second 9 holes are played. This is important,
Golfers feel that they have different layouts for each 9-hole golf. A way in which such effects can occur is for golfers to move from one indoor golf ball striking area or tee room to another, for example, a first golf ball striking area located at one end of the entire golf ball striking area. Therefore, the golfer may go to the second tee position at the other end of the other so-called golf ball striking area from which he may play 9 holes and use the ones used to play the first 9 holes. 1
It has a different layout than experienced in addressing and striking the ball from the golf ball striking area. The design of the golf course is to open the green in the first 9 holes, while in the latter 9 holes to move the ball from one room to the other to cross the water hazard and sand trap and turn the ball on the green. become.

Four players are arranged to play like a foursome on a regular course. The first player tees up the ball and makes a tee shot, then the second
Players tee shots in the same manner, and all players tee shots in the same manner. Each player registers the shot or shot distance on the scorecard. After the first shot is made, the foursome player will continue to play as the foursome until the second shot and then a hole out in the green area of the building. Golfers play repeatedly until they complete 9 holes. After hitting the 9 holes in the second half, foursome plays the so-called 9 holes in the second half from a different tee position in the same way as he played the 9 holes in the first half, using different tee positions as before.

Results of the first test on a simulated course, 1
The round can be completed in about 2 hours. The reason for playing so fast is that there is no lost ball, no time to move between tees, and no waiting time, and the entire golf game can be completed quickly. This is a great advantage of the installation of the invention.

The entire golf game is played in the clubhouse. Each golfer uses three ball hit areas in sequence: (1) "golf ball hit area" (2) "fairway" area and "rough" area. Each golf shot launches the ball from one of these areas through an air curtain onto an outdoor fairway or green. The first shot is from the tee. At par 3, the target is the designated green. Second on par 4 and 5 poles
The batting and the third batting are performed toward the designated green from the fairway area of the batting area. By determining the distance of the tee shot and / or fairway shot, the golfer can determine the distance of the green and the shot for a particular green. After the ball hits the green, the golfer putts on the indoor green behind the room. After finishing the putt
The golfer returns to the same room and plays the next hole.
After playing 9 holes, the golfer moves to another room on the opposite side of the clubhouse and plays the "second half of the 9 holes." Sand shots are played from the sand shot chambers located at both ends of the building. Use the edge of the trap for chip shots of 10 to 35 yards, and shoot from the trap to the green.

For chip shots shorter than 10 yards, use the indoor edge of the putting green. All other golf shots are played from the room towards the golf course. All greens are 50 yards deep and the flags on each green are located in the center of the green.

(The depth and yard of the green may change.) On trap shots, if the ball flies into the trap, it is the eye lie. If the ball rolls into the trap, it stays on top. The trap on the right side of the clubhouse is a deep trap. The trap on the left side of the clubhouse is shallow. It is up to the golfer to decide which trap to use. All fairway traps are shallow traps. If a golfer hits a sand trap (including a green trap), the next shot is played as a fairway trap shot.

Of course, various scorecards 36 may be used depending on the golf play of the golfer's golf game. For example, a golfer can play on the golf course described above by applying golf cards from various so-called famous golf courses such as Pebble Beach, Medina No. 3 etc. to the indoor-outdoor golf game facility according to the present invention.
