APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR GOLF STROKE TRAINING
Golf stroke training apparatus, as well as methods and systems to train a golfer to improve golf strokes, including putting strokes, wherein the golf stroke training apparatus provides a planar surface that can be levelled statically to the surface below it and can be adjusted by adding slope and/or pitch in quantifiable measurements and with a high degree of accuracy, wherein the repeatable golf stroke environments so provided permit repeatable and quantifiable golfer stroke actions and analysis and leading to golf stroke consistency.
Golf game umbrella apparatus
An apparatus comprises a shaft; an openable and closable canopy; and a plurality of upwardly extending holding chambers on an underside of the canopy. The apparatus is thought to be particularly useful as a golf chipping game, with golf balls being chipped into the holding chambers as target practice.

Golf Course and Method of Playing Golf
A golf course and method of play wherein players start by using a shooting device to shoot a ball from a tee area towards a target area located near a putting green. Once the ball lands the player proceeds to the landing spot to complete the hole by hitting the ball into a cup on the putting green using conventional golf clubs. The target area includes a ricochet wall and a target that has a bullseye. If the player hits the target the player's score is credited but if the player misses the target area entirely the player's score is penalized.

USER CONFIGURABLE TRAILER
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, coordinate dynamic adjustments of a trailer based in part on a user profile associated with a user physically present at the trailer and an activity profile associated with an activity selected to be performed at the trailer. A dynamic adjustment may modify a tilt of a lower surface of the trailer. A dynamic adjustment may modify a dimension(s) of the trailer based in part on a detected object(s). Various dynamic adjustments may occur concurrently, individually and/or sequentially. The trailer may be a moveable trailer for temporary attachment with a vehicle.
APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING TERRAIN INFORMATION ON GREEN AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING TERRAIN INFORMATION ON GREEN
Proposed herein are an apparatus for providing terrain information on a green and a method for providing terrain information on a green. According to one embodiment, there is proposed an apparatus for providing terrain information on a green, the apparatus including: a simulation processor configured to display a virtual golf course image regarding a green, a hole cup on the green, and a first ball; and a guide processor configured to display a guide path between the hole cup and the first ball to provide terrain information on the green.
Putting Kit
A putting kit for teaching, learning and practicing the art of putting comprises an inline putting frame that has various voids to accept golf tees. The golf tees may be in a raised position so as to define are more narrow passage way for both a golf ball and golf club head. By narrowing such passages, a golfer learns to make more refined a accurate club swings, such that the apex of the arc of the swing occurs directly at the back of the golf ball. A portable target or moveable golf cup allows for many golfers or students to practice upon the same green. A bubble level may be attached to the portable target to show a student the slope of the green. A ball firing mechanism may be aimed by use of the inline frame with the fired ball demonstrating the slope of the green.
3-DIMENSIONAL GOLF GAME
A 3-Dimensional golf game having a horizontal surface, a vertical surface, and a curvilinear surface that interconnects the horizontal and vertical surfaces, wherein at least the vertical surface includes one or more ball-receiving cups. The game of skill is played by one or more players putting or striking a golf ball along the horizontal surface with sufficient force to travel through the curvilinear surface and up the vertical surface. The force of gravity then causes the ball to return back down the vertical surface and—if appropriately aimed and struck—the ball travels downwardly into the opening of the least one ball receiving cup. Players are awarded points for successfully landing the ball into the ball receiving cup and the game may include differently sized and/or positioned cups having different point values.
