There arent 8 people in the world I could play that game with:sorry
I was in my early twenties at the time and would play anything. This pool room was near my job so I only tried the game a few times. There also was snooker, payball and nine ball action there. The golf game was good for the room owner.
My regular golf game at that time was at San Gabriel Lanes in their pool room. They had soft 5 x 10 snooker tables with decent rules for golf and quite a few good players. If you could not go five and out from the two hole once and a while on those tables you took the worst of it.
In the late sixties I started playing on the tight 6 x 12 in Bellflower called ‘Big Bertha’. I like golf on any table, but my preference is on a 6 x 12. I still play when I can at CA Billiards, but it is 140 miles away and I don’t get down there often.
In the early 80’s I was recently divorced and took a long pool trip around the Western US, mostly playing golf with some goofy rules from time to time. Denver, Co had the best golf action at Family Fun Center and Colfax Billiards. It was a great trip that I remember fondly since I made friends almost everywhere I played. Golf was popular then and a great game to gamble at if you could play it well. You usually got stuck at first learning the equipment and the rules, and by the time you got them down and a line on the players, the bet was up.
It did not always work, but did most of the time. I lost $750 to the dogcatcher in Alb., New Mexico, but that is another story.
