THIS IS HOW THE OTHER HALF LIVES: This is a massively powerful golf documentary about Anil Mane, a caddie for a private golf club in Mumbai, India and created his own Street golf version of the game using plastic ‘practice’ golf balls. They then fashion clubs from metal bars collected from the dumps. He makes [...]
URBANGOLF – STREETGOLF – CROSSGOLF DIPLOMACY: Playing golf off a golf course is a pretty revolutionary. As a result it can be a bit of a controversial activity because for the last two – three generations, everyone on the planet has been taught, at a very early age, that golf balls will kill you. We’ve [...]
Last week, Klaus Simianer of CrossGolf-portal.de flew a monster 12 hours each way to attend my spring party and talk about the future of European urban golf, street golf and cross golf. We spent the time talking and shooting crossgolf videos like mad. We went everywhere from Venice beach to the Hollywood hills for a [...]
THE KORTRIJK URBAN GOLF SQUAD RULES!!!!! The urban-crossgolf season is breaking out of the winter dull drums and starting 2011 season with a bang. It’s course design time. Since the Urban Golf Squad are busy designing their course for their next event, we felt compelled to show their work and show what I consider the [...]
THIS IS HOW A DRIVING RANGE IS DONE ON A BUDGET: This is also one of the first videos we ever created. I had to go into the oldest hard drives to find this video. My driving range began when I started prototyping the almostGolf ball. It took 72 sessions at the factory before we [...]
SUNDAY MORNING GOLF PRACTICE WAS NEVER SO GOOD: This is what I’m talkin’ about!!! Here is a great example of backyard balcony golf…or…practicing your short game from a very elevated tee. Put on the crocs, power up an instant cappuccino, pull out your Cleveland TA5 wedge (my club of choice always) and work on that [...]
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE BEING RICH. At least rich enough to create your own backyard golf course. Since these home golf courses are officiall off-the-golf course we should talk about them a bit. The thing that doesn’t make these cross-golf courses are that everyone is using ‘real golf balls’. I wonder if they used urban [...]
Neighborhood Golf Tournaments: Experts from FatGuyGolf.net Here is a blog entry from oobgolf.com about neighborhood golf. This is pretty much our vision of what golf could be. Way to go fatguygolf.

HOW TO GET STARTED PLAYING GOLF IN THE WINTER: Ok, it’s kind of cruddy out side, but there will be a break in the weather soon and the ground will be white with snow and the air will be calm and cold. So, how can you get out there, swing the golf clubs and maybe [...]
WHO SAYS FIELD STRIPERS ARE ONLY FOR FOOTBALL AND SOCCER FIELDS: Our crew at Crossgolfportal.de were the first on the continent of Europe to paint an actual golf course for the CrossGolf Open in Lamperheim this year.

GOLF COURSES CAN BE CREATED VIRTUALLY ANYWHERE: For the first few years of almostGOLF’s existence, we ran the company out of our house in Santa Monica, CA., this had some nice advantages. We turned our front yard and neighborhood into the urbangolf course in LA. We called it the almostGOLF testing laboratories. I literally walked [...]
DO YOU WANT TO PLAY GOLF ANYWHERE? Here are a few videos about what it looks like to leave the golf course Thanks to the almostGolf ball, there are urban, street and crossgolf events around the world. Off-Course golf is pretty much like Frisbee or disco golf…but with a new golf ball. Thank almostGolf for the [...]
This is a great Do-it-yourself-golf-course. This is definately not urbangolf. It’s more like suburbangolf with a smattering of streetgolf kicked in for good measure. All you need is one club, some cups and some OCGolf approved golf balls. Perri Wright and his buddy in Manhatten Beach, CA created a pretty cool knock around urbangolf, or [...]
