Golf Party Ideas and Tips – The 19th Hole

Invite your guests by using a golf themed party invitation. Golf themed party supplies such as the serving plates, napkins, party cups, etc. are available both online and offline.
This will set up well on a green tablecloth. Small flags positioned at the different types of foods will give some depth to the theme. Include a large personalized banner hung for all the duffers to see.

Be sure to have plenty of fun games for your guests to play. Parties are remembered if the guest leaves with a personal experience or memory. If rain cancels you’re outside golf party, a nice a little putting competition in the family room or some chip shots under, through and over a folding chair into a bucket is a lot of fun. This is where the 18 shots of Scotch might come in handy.

A great thing about a golf party is that you don’t have to feel like you are a golf widow or widower. Everyone is welcome to join in the games. Try these less demanding golf games. Fill a large jar with golf tees and have your guest guess how many there are. Instead of pin the tail on the donkey, you can use a large sheet of green paper for the “golf green”. Draw a regulation 4 1/2 inch circle for the hole. Use white stickers, again regulation, at least 1.680 inches in diameter for the golf balls. Be sure to mark the player’s initials in the sticker to make it easier to see who is the closest. The player who is the closest to getting a hole-in-one wins. Remember, no points for rim shots.

Since this is a golf party, why not set up an area to play miniature golf? You can play a round of miniature golf at home with a little bit of imagination. Set up the golf course using items found around your house. Find an area that is large enough for the number of holes you want for your miniature golf course. A local playground with a picnic area or your backyard is the ideal location.

Of course, Golfers are like Fisherman. A lot of stories about the 50 foot putt, the one that got away and lastly, the chip shot over the river and through the woods to land pin high on a three tiered undulating green. Now that’s golf!
