My name is Chris Dodge and I live right here in the great state of Tennessee. My family and I are full adventurers filled with passion to see the amazing things our state has to offer. We are avid hikers and have explored many different places in Tennessee and beyond but we are always thankful to be living in such a glorious state.
Stepping up to the bright, cheery green of the artificial turf, my hands were sweaty and my heart was racing. I knew every single stroke was adding to my score and I desperately needed to defeat my father for ultimate bragging rights as family putt-putt champion. Some people view it as a game, but the competition is intense nonetheless. I calculated the course and saw every corner and embankment like a complicated physics problem. When I gently tapped my red golf ball I watched as it soared and satisfyingly landed in the hole, solidifying my great victory. These moments of mini golf fun were forever sealed in my memory and for those experiences, I have a man to thank in Tennessee for inviting the game of modern miniature golf. So who invented mini golf? Allow me to tell you the birth of the putt-putt we all know and love.
So now we know who invented mini golf. Once again, someone from Tennessee changed the world and we are so thankful for that! When you want to challenge a family member or friend for a round, I would recommend you check out Crave Golf Club and have a blast while doing it.
