I have several passions. Some are normal. Some are ackward. Some are down-right strange. I have two strange passions. One of my strangest passions is minigolf (it's such a fun game!). The other even stranger passion is windmills (I don't even know why.) I just wanted to know, who was the one who actually came up with the concept of windmills being used for minigolf?

I'm not sure, but I think he was probably either a Commie or a Nazi. You know how hard it is to play through the windmills? I kinda imagine some weirdo in a little room with a piece of paper in front of him reading "Minigolf Torture Device 2" (the first being the pipe that your ball always gets stuck in).

PS: You ever been to a Putting Edge?

I'm not sure who came up with that concept,however I know that those things annoy me while playing minigolf.

Also, I can play minigolf but not real golf.. not fun to me.

I'm actually pretty good at real golf, I can beat my grandfather on a good day (and he's the best player I know). I haven't played a game in a while as I outgrew my clubs there two years ago, but I'm looking into some new ones.

That's cool! I just never have been that good at it, suggesting that's probally the reason I don't like it that much. Minigolf has always been pretty fun in general for me though. However, I am not talking about like PuttPutt golf, I mean like Tinytown golf and so on..

I hear ya there. Love the mini-golf, no interest in the full-size game.

when you go mini golfing, does anybody get the urge to just hit the ball as hard as you can and send it across the entire park. Me and some friends were at Grand Slam (this place w/Lazer Tag, mini golf, batting cages, arcade games, etc.) and we get kicked out of the mini golf area because of this.

Yes, I get that urge sometimes. Unfortunately, you try this on the computer game "3-D Ultra Minigolf", it don't quite work that way, unless your hitting up a hill, then you get a "penalty stroke".
