House Golf
House Golf is a form of golf that is condensed down to fit indoors, inside the confines of a person's house or other large building. Unlike mini-golf, House Golf utilizes both woods and irons, as well as, the putter. Also unlike mini-golf the style of clubs is a bit different. House golf requires the use of children's plastic golf clubs and standard ping-pong balls as the basic equipment for the game. In House Golf the rules and scoring are very similar to that of conventional golf. As in regular golf the objective is for a player to use his/her clubs to hit a ball from the tee area into a hole on the green area in the fewest possible amount of strokes. There is a standard 18 holes, as on a conventional golf course, and coinciding par amounts for each hole. One of the most unique aspects of House Golf is that it can be played in virtually any indoor setting and enjoyed by almost any person regardless of age.

House Golf Course
A House Golf course comprised of 18 holes consisting of a tee off area, a green area, and a "hole". Similar to conventional golf there are noted out-of-bounds areas (for unplayable lies), but generally a player is required to play his/her lie regardless of obstacles or difficulty.

Putting is always done on carpet. Generally the putting area is noted by a change in surface, weather it be from carpet/rug to different carpet/rug, tile to carpet/rug or wood to carpet/rug, ect. If a change in carpet/rug is not possible the putting green is to be regulated and noted before every hole by the commissioner of the course.

The degree of difficulty for the game of House Golf comes as variables will often change from day to day within a building. Players may not move any obstructions, such as furniture, animals, shoes, ect, in order to improve their lie. The only objects they are allowed to move around are what the members of the group bring with them throughout the round.

House Golf courses generally consist of 18 holes, but 9 hole courses are a possibility in certain circumstances, such as lack of space for a full 18 hole course.
