About the game

A game of strategy using one hole from each of 18 famous courses to produce a golfer's dream course. The game lets you hit the ball like a pro but in order to score well you will have to plan your round hole by hole and shot by shot. You determine your direction of aim, then dice determine how far you hit it. A little luck and a little planning might lead to a low-scoring round.

The first rendition was the small green box format and included these holes with charts for "scratch" golfers, a range of charts for various handicap levels (men and women), and one "duffer" chart. That set was repackaged into a long box, still called "Sports Illustrated Handicap Golf." Finally, the excess charts were removed, leaving only Pro Men and Pro Women charts, a redesigned shot result system was implemented, and the game was retitled Go for the Green.
