FAQ's

What type of site is needed?

The amazing thing about Farmersgolf is that it can be created as simply or as ellaborately as you like. It can be designed to fit your grounds, fields and could even include disused buildings. The ball used is large, so the terrain can be uneven and the game can still be played very succesfully.

Do the holes need to be mowed, greens created etc as in conventional golf?

No. The grass does not need to be cut short, in fact the course will need very little maintenance?

Can a Farmersgolf course be set up for children?

Yes. A smaller course could easily be set up which would be aimed at children rather than adults. The ball used is a lighter air ball rather than the harder (football style) balls for adults,

Will the course impact the land used?

No. There is no need to landscape or dig sand bunkers.

Do we need planning permission to set up a course?

Maybe. We would advise that some local authorities would require a change of use permission from agricultural to a leisure use. The impact on the land is though very low so this may not be required.

Can a course be run as a year round attraction?

This will depend entirely on your location, free draining dry land will work in the winter. For wetter locations it is suggested the season is from March/April to October.
