Method for playing strategy golf

A method of playing strategy golf actually or vicariously comprising the steps of using a sheet member having uniformally spaced apart increments of distance thereon extending away from a readily discernible location thereon in sufficient directions from said discernible location that said sheet member can readily accommodate proportionally accurate layouts of the widely varying holes played by golfers, including holes having a dogleg to the right of the tee area and a dogleg to the left of the tee area with said increments of distance extending to said tee area, and laying out, on said sheet member and over said increments of distance thereon, the characteristics of a particular hole to be played actually or vicariously by the golfer by disposing means on said sheet member at said readily discernible location to represent the golf green of said hole, disposing means on said sheet member at the appropriate distance from said readily discernible location to represent the golf tee area of said hole, disposing means on said sheet member between said tee area representation and said green representation to represent the locations of the landmarks and hazards of said hole that could be encountered by the golfer in playing said hole, determining from said laid out sheet member or a copy thereof the first strategic shot path that the golfer could follow with his particular golf playing abilities or vicarious abilities to reach a first desired strategic location in attempting to reach the green of said hole in a minimum number of strokes for those said abilities, and playing a first golf ball shot actually or vicariously in an attempt to reach said first strategic location, whereby on reaching the area of said first played golf ball shot, said increments of distance and the relationship of said landmarks and any noted hazards yet to be encountered enable said golfer to readily predetermine any additional strategic golf ball shot paths that could be followed actually or vicariously to reach successive strategic locations from which subsequent actual or vicarious shots could be taken to reach the green of the hole being played with a minimum member of strokes for the golfer's actual or vicarious ability.
