The Kow Pasture Klassic rules state that you don’t use a golf ball…(???) instead a tennis ball is used. Golf clubs? Not your standard drivers, woods and irons. But other items of your choice for clubbing the balls. Be creative. Tennis racket, Shovel, Baseball bat, Oboe...??? Crutch? If you can hit a tennis ball with it…then game on! and FORE!
