Abstract

A method of play of a golf trivia game is provided in which a question category is randomly selected from among two or more question categories. A question is then directed from the selected category to a player. A random value is assigned to a correct answer, and a random value is assigned to an incorrect answer. A determination of the correctness of the answer is made, and the score is recorded depending on the assigned random value. Each player answers one question per round or hole, and the game is completed after a selected number of rounds have been played. By providing a score for each player for each round of questions, this method provides the same variety of ways of playing the game as the game of golf itself.
