Each courses has a little low wall around it and some obstacles, corners and hills to get round to the hole. Often the pitch is concrete or astroturf<BR/>Then Crazy Golf is like Mini Golf but the obstacles are more <I>"crazy"</I>: windmills, King Kong, bridges over little rivers, multiple holes to choose from, etc.<BR/>Then Adventure Golf is like Crazy Golf but you have a theme running through the whole thing like Pirates or as you said Aztec temples!<BR/><BR/>Got it?

By mini golf, do you mean like Pitch'n'Putt? Normal golf just on a small scale? And what the hell is adventure golf? I have visions of running through an ancient Aztec temple, dodging darts and huge boulders, keeping your golf ball going with a trusty putter in one hand and a trusty whip in the other ...<BR/><BR/>Oh, and you can hire pedalos in Oxford as a less high-brow alternative to punting. Come up some time this summer and we can hire one. :)Andy Smith-Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08295509763832620819noreply@blogger.com
