Here’s a grass-less golf course in Australia, taking Golf to “another level”.
| Despite being in the middle of the desert, the people of Coober Peady haven’t let that get in the way of getting in a round of golf. Coober Peady is home to an 18 hole golf course. What makes it different is the total lack of grass. There isn’t a blade of grass within hundreds of kilometers of Coober Peady. If you look closely you’ll notice under the sign that the ball is orange and there is a small square of artificial turf. The ground rules for the course allow for putting the square of turf under the ball for each stroke not on the “greenâ€, so you don’t hit a rock when taking a swing. The “greenâ€, you can see in the background, is really “black†and is sand.. |
