cards and which will have an instructive value, teaching those not so informed, the
procedure and other points in the game.
The attainment of these objects'is efiected by a novel combination, relation andstruc ture of cards as hereinafter defined and covered broadly in the claims.
In the drawing accompanying and forming a part of this specification, the invention is illustrated in one of its practical embodiments but it should be understood that the structure may be changed and modified without departure from the spirit and scope of the invention.
Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4 are back views of the so-called driving, hazard, approach,putting cards constituting the four suits used in the game.
Figures 5, 6 and? are face views of three representative cards in the driving deck.
Figures 8, 9 and 10 are face views of three representative cards in the second or 7 hazard deck.
Figures 11, 12 and 13 are face views of t'lhrie representative cards in the approach Figures 14 and 15 are face views of two representative cards in the fourth or putting group.
The game as illustrated is played with four decks or suits representative of the four prindrlving, hazard play, approach play and putting. The cards of' these four different suits are suitably distinguished as by printand 4, where the cards of the suits mencipal parts in the game of golf; that is,
tioned'are designated in the order named, 20, 60. 21, 22, 23. The backs of the, cards thus show immediately in which suit they belong.
If desired, other or additional distinguishing means may be employed such as by making these different suit cards in different v distinguishing sizes or shapes.
Thenumberof cards in each suit may vary and will depend upon the variety of chance plays which it is desired to introduce into the'game and the number of players which are to participate. For a two, threeor four-. handed game involving a sufficient variety of plays to ordinarily hold the interest, the deck may consist of eighty-nine cards, divided as follows: twenty-four cards in the driving suit, ten cards in the hazard suit, twenty-two cards in the approach suit and thirty-three cards in the putting suit.
The faces of the cards in the respective suits carry designations or indications of the usual or special plays. likely .under that heading. Thus, in the. driving suit there may be cards like that illustrated in Figure 5, bearing on its face the designation 24 of a clear drive of definite length and the pictorial representation 25 of the actual results of such a drive; cards such as indicated in Figure 6 bearing -designations 26 and pictorial representations 27 of the result of a drive into a bunker or other haz-. aid; and cards such as shown in Figure 7 bearing'the designation 28 and pictorial representation 29 of a topped ball. In the ame as now being played, the driving suit 1s made up of two one hundred and fifty 35. yard drive cards, eight one hundred and seventy-five yard drive cards, nine two hundred yard drive cards, three in-bunker cards, and thre topped cards.
In addition t the designations or'indi- 9. cations showing results attained, each one of the driving cards bears an instruction for the next play naturally following the results disclosed. Thus, those cards showing a clear drive, Figure 5, carry an instruction 30 to next play approach deck, the inbunker cards, Figure 6 carry instructions 31 to play hazard deck and the topped cards,
Figure 7, naturally carry instructions 32 to again play driving deck.
The cards in the other suits similarl carrydndications of results that would ord1 narily obtain in such classes of play with instructions. Thus Figure 8 shows .one of the hazard cards with the indicated result at 33 out in one-on green and the pictorial representation 34 of such result and the instruction 35 to next play putting deck.
Figure 9 shows another set of cards in the hazard suit with the designated result 36 out in one-holed out and the pictorial representation 30 of such result.
Figure 10 illustrates the face of another set of cards in the hazard suit bearing designations 38 of the result out in onein rough, the pictorial representation 39 'of such result and the naturally following instruction 40 to next play ap roach deck.
In the present 'ractical em odiment of the game there are our out in one' and on the green cards, Figure 8, four out in two strokes and on the green cards, not shown, and two out in onebut in the rough cards, Figure 10.
The approach cards as shown in Figures 11, 12 and 13 are arranged in three sets, the first consisting, in the present game, of sixteen on the green cards bearing this written designation 41 and pictorial representation 42 with the instructlon 43 to next play putting deck; the second set consisting of two holed out cards, Figure 2, bearing the description 44 and the pictorial re resentation 45 of such result and the thir I sisting of four in sand pit cards, Figure 13, bearing the description 46, pictorial representation 47 and the instruction 48 to next play hazard deck.
The cards of the putting suit, as shown in Figures 14 and 15, consist in the presentdisclosure of a set of fourteen one putt cards bearing this description 49 and pictorial representation 50 with the instruction 51 to next play putting deck and a set of nineteen cards bearing the result designation sunk at 52 and the picture of such result at 53.
After shuffling the cards in each suit the game is usually played by placing the four stacks face down and then drawing the top cards according to precedence established in golf. Thus, the one who has the honor first plays, taking the top card from the driving deck. This card shows on its face the result of the drive, whether, for instance, it be one hundred and fiftyryards, one hundred and seventy-five or two hundred yards, a topped ball or a. drive into a bunker. The next player then draws a card from the driving deck. The one furtherest from the green then plays, taking a card fromthe approach deck if a 'perfect drive has been made, a card from the hazard Figures 8 and 11, and then set condeck if the drive has not kept inthe clear and a card from the driving deck if the ball has simply been topped. This procedure is continued until both or all players have holed out, which may be effected by drawing the holed out cards shown in Figures 9 and 12 from the hazard or approach decks respectively orby reaching the green from the hazard or approach decks by drawing the on-green cards illustrated respectively in taking from the putting deck until successful in drawing one of the final or sunk cards, Figure 15.
The additional difiiculties introduced by the in rough cards drawn from thehazard deck and the sand pitcards, Figure 3, drawn from theapproach deck act as penalties as in the real game and prevent the game from becoming monotonous. If desired, the name of the game, which may be golf nut or the like, may be printedon the backs or faces of the cards and usually the wording will be repeated at opposite ends of the cards as indicated so that the cards may be read either end u What is c aimed is: l I
