ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A golf simulating apparatus is capable of simulating play on a golf course and/or a driving range. A pivotally mounted resilient ball member (38) is arranged to be impacted with the head of a golf club as the club is swung by the player. Special sensors are associated with the ball member (38) to sense its velocity and any lateral deviation from a fixed plane of movement (Y-Y) thereby to provide signals representing a probable distance and direction of ball travel. These signals are applied to the input ports of a computer (80) which is programmed to provide output signals to a monitor (20) so that it displays a simulated golf course or driving range, with the simulated path of ball travel and/or landing position being displayed on the golf course or driving range. The program provides the golf course or driving range with selected hazards (water, sand, trees etc.). Provision is made for counting and displaying the number of strokes,for averaging distances, assessing penalties and the like thereby to provide a simulation of conditions likely to be encountered during actual play of a game of golf.
