SET UP
Gator Golf plays best indoors on a low-pile
carpet. Avoid rough surfaces and shag
carpeting. Place the Gator in an open
area. Each player should choose one
colored Gator Golf ball.
Next, open the Gator’s mouth by holding
down its lower jaw and pulling up on its
top jaw until it locks into the open
position as shown in
Figure 4

PLAYING THE GAME
Choose a player to go first. Each player takes one putt per turn. The goal is to sink your
putt by hitting your ball through the Gator’s mouth into his tail.
The first player will place their ball directly in front of the Gator, one club-distance
away, as shown in
Figure 5
. The player then uses the club to putt the ball.
If you don’t have a clear shot at the Gator’s mouth, you can use your turn to set up a
clear shot for your next turn.
• If you sink your putt, the Gator’s mouth will close, and he will flip the ball out with his
tail! Each putt you sink is worth one point. See Sinking Your Putt.
• If you don’t sink your putt, your turn is over. Leave your ball wherever it stopped. You
must putt from that location on your next turn.
