Remove the plastic bag from around the leg. This protection was provided for shipping purposes only.

The leg strap furnished with the target board is used to keep the leg extended at the proper playing height. One end of the strap has a sewn loop which is slipped around the leg. The other end of the strap has velcro installed in two places. Stand the game board upright, extend the leg out and loop the strap around the bottom edge of the rectangular hole at the very bottom of the game board. Press the hook and loop parts of the velcro strap together to keep the strap in place. This allows the leg to be extended while keeping the game board at the proper playing angle.

NOTICE: The game board is designed to be played with 4 to 5 ounce bean bags, thrown underarm at a distance of 17 to 20 feet or less. Baseballs or other hard objects should not be thrown at the board, nor should the board be used as a ramp for bikes or vehicles.

The Game:
1. Rules and scoring are similar to real golf.
2. Golf course score cards can be used to keep track of player scores.
3. Each game should consist of 9 or 18 holes.
4. The par for each hole, as stated on the score card, shall determine the number of bean bags available for each player to throw on each hole.
5. Low score for the hole has "honors" for the next hole.
6. Low score for the game wins.

Teams:
1. A team can be one or more players.
2. Two players or two or more teams can compete in the game.
3. A coin toss determines the start.
4. The player or team with "honors" will throw first on each hole.

Throwing, Scoring and Foul Line:
1. The regulation throwing distance is 17 feet, measured from the foul line to the front edge of the target board. This distance can be varied depending upon the skill level of the players.
2. All throws must be underarm with the forward foot behind the foul line.
3. If a player's foot crosses the foul line while throwing, the throw will be scored as a penalty stroke.
4. Place fixed lines or markers to establish the foul line and throwing distance.
5. A bean bag that is thrown is considered a stroke unless it passes through a hole in the target board. If it goes through a hole, the value of the hole is scored.
6. Each bag thrown through the WATER HAZARD hole adds a stroke to the player's score.
7. A bag that hangs up on a hole counts only as a stroke.
8. If a player fails to score on a given hole, a DOUBLE BOGEY will be recorded for that hole, plus any penalty points.
9. A player may throw one or more bags at the board. Only the last bag thrown counts, plus any penalty strokes.
10. BOGEY: One over par.
DOUBLE BOGEY: Two over par.
BIRDIE: One under par.
EAGLE: Two under par.
