Description

This is the perfect game for anyone who's short of time and can never manage to squeeze in a round before going home. Or anyone who's looking to dodge a bit of work for a while. With a self-explanatory title like 'Magnetic Golf' you can imagine what this nifty little package entails, but there's more complexity to it than you might think. Besides your little magnetic golfer himself (apparently there's no female version of him - that's not very representative, now is it?), you've got a green with a moveable hole, a bunker, a water hazard and some trees to set up your own personalised fairway.

Now we're not really golfers, we lack the dubious taste in clothing for a start, but boy oh boy is this addictive. We've managed a hole in one once, and that was enough to have us aching to repeat the deeply satisfying experience of seeing the ball snap into its rightful place beneath the flag. We've yet to repeat it of course, but that's partly because we can't resist mixing it up a little and changing the complexity of the course.

It's no simple point and flick game either, just a fractional increase or decrease in swing power can drastically alter the course of a hole, making it something of a fine art. With a bit of practice you can perform chip shots, tee shots and some pretty tricky putts and, because it's all magnetised, you've got at least some chance of getting a hole-in-one. You can really expand this game - we've gone as far as making a between-desk ravine, a cup-of-water-hazard and an in-tray bunker, all with a stupidly optimistic par. With Magnetic Golf, you can turn spare moments into hours of addictive, creative and strategic fun.

Great Game - esp for the competitive!

This was bought as a wee extra in birthday pressie for my hubby. Next thing the kitchen table was cleared and bunkers etc were set up whilst a competition was ongoing between the boys, the rules being repeated louder and louder as it went on. Great fun and compact enough to take about with you as an icebreaker or challenge for smaller and big boys (and girls!)

Santa's gift

Bought this for my husband for Christmas. He couldn't wait to play with it, the kids have played with it also. The first time he took it to the golf club everyone was having a go at it. He always takes it to the golf club now, keeps the kids busy! Buy one, its fab.

Hours of fun for all the family

I bought this for my oldest nephew for Christmas. It's a simple toy, but it provided hours of amusement (and a bit of light hearted competition) for everyone and was very much enjoyed.

not as good as expected

I had great hopes for this game, however it did not live up to expectations. I thought you would be able to make your course as long as you liked and be able to perform a gentle putt when you got to the green. this was not the case, as the ball can only be hit from the tee. This means that the only way to get a hole is to do it in one shot. Really not what I was expecting.

Better than letting him win a round of golf

My boss loved this Secret Santa gift - cheaper and less trouble than letting him win a round of golf! A veritable hole-in-one for me too! He can't stop challenging me to a game!

Jealous relations

I purchased the magnetic golf set for my 11yr old Grndson who had a mountain of other more expensive presents on Christmas Morning. 17 of us family members went out for dinner Christmas Day and guess who was fvourite son'nephew/cousin etc. you guessed it, the one with the magnetic golf set. It was played on the restaurant table by kids from 3 yrs up to 63 the older ones mostly male of course! We did have a couple of extra bunkers, my Cranberry sauce being one of them but I banned them from trying to whack the ball out of there and declared it a mis-hit. I don't know the techncal terms but they got the message. I think there may be a couple more orders for next Christmas! It has now gone over to Burnley to the other side of his family, I await the results when he returns in the next few days. I thought the screaming flyng monkey last year was good ( it still works and is in regular use by the way) but this one was even more popular. The delivery the next day was brilliant too and the notification to say the order was being packed plus the next one to say it was on it's way was very handy too - Well done all round and thankyou.
