Clock golf in Miami, Florida, 1905Old clock golf numbers, showing spikes for insertion into lawn
Clock golf is a game based on golf, originating in the mid 19th century. Players putt a golf ball from each in turn of 12 numbered points arranged in a circle as in a clock face, to a single hole placed within the circle. Alternative names include Clock-Golf, Round the Clock Golf, and Golf Around the Clock.
Jaques of London's description suggests that clock golf can be played wherever there is space for "an approximate circle of 10–30ft in diameter", and that shrubs and other obstacles can add to the interest. The hole is not placed centrally, so the 12 "holes" of the game can be of different lengths.[1] A writer in Landscape Architecture Magazine, 1926, suggests that it needs a circle of 20-24ft, and lists it among "the lawn sports now commonly played".[2]
SHAPE America offered a set of instructions for "Golf Around the Clock" as a "lead-up game" useful as a preliminary for learners of golf.[3][4]
