Description

Golf allows the player to play golf on an HP programmable calculator. The player can choose between different clubs by entering a number. 1 through 3 is wood, 4 through 9 is iron, 10 is wedge, 11 chip shot and 12 is pitch and run. The calculator will show you the number of yards to the green. If a negative number is displayed the ball is in the green and the distance is in feet. When in the green the game switches to a putter and the value (up to 15) entered is the strength of the shot instead. The game does not keep score.
